Well, considering I only have two submissions in, let's push the deadline back a few days. So, the 6th by midnight. If you don't know by then, let me know. I can process that weekend if everybody's results are in. If not... eh, probably time to pack it up anyway.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

My thanks for the extension, Autarch. I will stay in touch regarding interaction or lack thereof, one way or the other.
Please note I had every intention of submitting today, so that would have been three-fifths of the active players submitting on time. Please do not judge interest in the game on the number of late turn submissions...

Cool. I waited till the last minute, but I never like to submit when I don't have a real idea. Thanks for the extension. Excited for the next phase, now that most of us are getting closer to the second DSP

I don't even think Serenity is at that level yet; but I am enjoying the world building and story aspect more than being concerned with gaining strength.
However, as the Autarch warned earlier, since I suspect Serenity may be dealing with an NPC clan, my gut is telling me I may soon regret not even attempting to power play...
from previous experience with the Autarch's NPCs, I know they can be viscious

Few players are. You'll all be alright for now, I think, though the observant may notice... no, I better not say.

I've been slacking. Work's kind of got me down. This weekend, I promise. I'll extend the next deadline.

Thanks. Y'know... I could get turns out every weekday for a mere $35/player per result. Any takers?

That figure ends up being a bit over 700 a month, but if you can afford it...
