Hi Ratel,

Roman pulled out of several games I had going with him. There was no explanation just that he could not play anymore. It seemed like he had some personal issues in real life, I hope everything is ok for him now.

Damn, I hope he's OK. I'll keep the game, maybe we get to finish it one day.
Actually, I am considering it to retire from SP as well. It's probably the best game I have. I mean, considering it that it dates back to 1995 or around there somewhere, and I am still playing it against other human players. Not many games around where you can say that.
I just got the feeling lately, that it became too much of a routine to start up my PC in the evening to play my turns and send it back. I have two kids aged 11 and 8 that are at school and I sometimes have to help them with homework in the evenings. Once we have finished that, it's normalty supper time and then time to put them in bed. If I still have turns to play, I don't get to see much of my wife before we go to sleep. To top it off, I sometimes have work stuff that keeps my in the office till late, especially this time of the year. I don't want to play only one turn per week, otherwise a game can take months to complete.
Well, as I said, I am considering retiring, maybe only temporary, but I still need to decide what I am going to do.

Well I dont mind the slow play turns.........I have games that last over a year with WITP, so dont ever think that that is a problem for me. But I understand the strains of real life, I just find the game a nice stress reliever, thats what I use it for.

I know Roman and played him many times,
He is usaully very dependable,

He's way up there on this years ladder though,
This late in the year the front runners hate to lose,not saying it is true in this case.

He told me a couple of months ago that he´s finally underway building a new house and cannot play for a long time...

Hi all. I apologize for the abrupt disappearance. I believe that notice to all with whom I was playing. I'm coming back but slowly. I hope those who were playing with me have reported a complete victory:).
Soon you will know me. Greetings to all.

Hello Ratel. We can continue our game. But please can send me the files? I had to install everything again.
regards

Ratel · 12-07-2011, 04:34 AM,

OK, great. I just have one request. I will have to send the files by normal e-mail. For some reason I cannot see my ongoing battles on the WAW website anymore. I can see all the rest of the website, except that part.
