13 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: I'm excited to get going. I haven't done this map yet.
13 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: Only one more spot left...
13 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: I know I'm Georgia and so will never take it but I think whoever controls Brussels should be ruler of the European Union
13 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: I second that idea
14 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: GameMaster: Game was extended due to at least 1 member failing to enter orders and having an excused missed turn available. This has un-readied all orders.
14 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: This bis why, when setting up these games, please only allow maximum 1 excuse because this will happen at least twice for a player who signed up then left.
14 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: Missing the opening build phase... classic
14 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: Isn't it so fun when you wait for 5 days for the opening build phase
14 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: It's just the greatest.
14 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: I've readied up.
15 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: GameMaster: Game was extended due to at least 1 member failing to enter orders and having an excused missed turn available. This has un-readied all orders.
15 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: Annnnnnd another one.
15 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: I've readied. I wish we could at least see who the culprit was.
15 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: Although... I have my suspicions.
15 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: We should see who it was in about 20 hours. Readying won't do anything since there are people who aren't entering orders to begin with. And in a full press game this big, I doubt we are going to get everyone readying until a bunch of people get out
15 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: I appreciate readying doesn't matter. It just makes me feel like I am expressing my frustration. Lol.
16 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: It didn't use to be like this a few years ago...but it has become normal with the larger games, the first 4 or 5 turns each take 2 or 3 attempts to get going. I just don't understand that people sign up then wander away...why make a commitment they have no intention to keep? Maybe I'm just too old now.
16 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: No clue but it is quite frustrating when it takes a week to build my first units
16 May 20 UTC Spring, 2020: I agree with my Turkish grandfather. Of course, if you have games with higher reliability requirements, and more phases played, this doesn’t happen as much.

I appreciate that makes it harder to get games started. Still, I wonder how many good players we lose because they are turned off by this sort of thing. If this were my first game, I could easily see myself leaving and not coming back.
