Game Notes:

1) Since there seems to be some confusion about where everyone is here, I'm reprinting the corrected Fall adjudication and asking again for Autumn and Winter orders for the next deadline. Below we reprint the game notes and press from the last season. I have proper orders in hand from all but one of you and will keep them on file. The one whose orders I don't have knows who he is. But I did say that one request was sufficient to delay the Winter adjudication. Apologies again for causing the confusion.

2) Thank you very much to Hank Alme and Robert Stimmel for playing out their respective positions. We are now down to six players. I'm sure about that, but please check the rest of the Supply Center Chart carefully, there were lots of changes and I'm not sure I kept up with all of them properly.

3) Mega-apologies for misplacing an order revision from Paul Rauterberg. The new results are up above, note that England has one less center, Austria has one more, as a result. I also made a few other minor corrections, so again, check me carefully.

Press:

(CHINA-RUSSIA): I think I'd be more comfortable in the Bay of Bengal.

(SPAIN - OTTOMAN): Sorry my friend, it would have been easier not to had you written.

(CHINA-SPAIN): I did pass on IWO.
