Dear Postal players

You might want to be aware that with the Cardiff Postal Strike (limited
deliveries), Train derailment, and Christmas post that we are delaying the
turns if there are more than one postal turn late (the problem we have is
that we regularly get late turns for each game and don't want to delay
games too much unless we absolutely have to).

So if you are in contact with others in your game that are Postal players
then you might want to send in turns by email if possible?

Hi Clint.

How are e-mail turns sent in? Do we need special software?

Cheers Adrian 109098.

No just type 'em out, using something like the format of the turnsheet
or "orders given section". If you get your turns by e-mail, you can cut
n paste from the turnsheet to the e-mail, then replace the underscores
_____ with your orders. Here's an old one as an example (Don't send to
Allsorts any more though!)

Another useful thing to remember, put the characters in the
alphabetical order they appears in on the turn sheet, else orders
might be mixed up, found out this the hard way :wink: (But Clint, the
great guy that he is, fixed it for me :slight_smile:

MEPBM and Harlequin games are separate entities and we have finally got the
legal aspects of that sorted so we are being legal... Sorry for any
confusion about this all - I can explain more fully in the new year.

Clint made a typo above.

anything@MiddleEarthGames.com

(I used capitals to make it clearer, not because you have to)

We have the new email address partly because we're going to have another Me
site, with different target audience to the middleearth.co.uk

We also want to not use .co.uk due to the increasing number of non-UK
players we have
