Most of us died a while back, but history was rewritten.

Turn Fourteen submissions due by 12am GMT Tuesday

Sorry for the delay, one of my friends is heading back to London tonight and I was socialising with him last night (when I should have been processing the turn).

Time to start banging the cutlery on the table impatiently . . .

Isn't our next turn due in tomorrow?

I think ZA is on hold. I can submit whenever needed.

I can't submit until I know what's happened to me at my new location. Or if I even got there. Damn the fickle fates!

My apologies, but I dont think the game can be continued. Perhaps a restart is in oder in a few months.

Sorry for letting everyone down.

No prob. Im looking forward to a new one.

No problem.

It was fun while it lasted and it will be fun again.

Ok, lets just say that i won this game, and we can start a new one.....

Haha.

No worries Lore.

Jove, you got off easy.

Okay everyone. The game will be restarted next month. It wont be the city, and instead will be a town in the UK. Maybe, 19th century, or the early 20th. Interesting characters like Cads, Gentlemen Adventurers, Heiress, Occultists, Pugilists, Scotland Yard Detectives, Underworld Criminals, Inventors, Professors, etc.

Damn. I'm not going to be able to participate, since my new home has no net access. It's going to be all I can do to get enough online time to play Last Men In Hell (since a Last Men turn typically takes me about two hours, including the typing of the orders).

It's particularly galling considering that the new ZA will be in my country.

Oh, Lore, that sounds sooooooo very cool!!!

I can't wait!

And very glad to have you there, Dewin...err...Bernard

Loremaster, as you know, I'm in for the new game. Mightily looking forward to it. Now I just have to decide what it is I'll play. Too many Victorian era stereotypes to have fun with...

Do you get bonus points for taking a Dickensian name like Mr Thistlewick, or Polly Mopplesticks, or something?

Your inventory will be: a baked potato, 30ft of fishing line, an Orange Party badge, and a coal-miner's shovel.

In that case, I will place the baked potato above an old tunic of a murder victim, pinning the Orange Party badge to said tunic, and place the coal-miner's shovel beside it. I shall then secure aforementioned 30ft of fishing line to the potato, standing some distance, and use the line to bob the potato. As suspects pass, I will imitate a man's voice, announcing my recent allegiance to Ulster, and this creating the impression the murdered man is still alive. When the true villain shoots the potato, I shall jump out with some local Peelers, and apprehend said villain.

Another case solved by Scotland Yard's finest - Harlowe H. Harlowe.
