GAME CONCLUDED
I don’t like making rulings, and I’m disappointed that we will not be able to see this game to it’s conclusion; but as 9 days have passed without any sign of movement, interest, or comment, I rule this game concluded per tournament rules below.
XDAP Rule:
5. Regular Tournament concepts and common sense, like being courteous, and posting regularly etc APPLY, and are subjected to the whim and wrath of myself and the deputies as previously explained in rule # 1.
Standard league and tournament rules:
5c - 72 hour warnings: ? If 72 hours goes by and there is no game-play post from your opponent (i.e. at least a game decision made), simply post “bump” and the number of the bump (Bump#1, Bump #2, or Bump #3), which creates the warning. ? (Note: ? only post “bump” in your warnings to make it clear you are issuing a warning. ? Do not add any small talk or other game talk in your warning post.)
5d - Bump warning and consequences - Each “bump” warning resets the clock for another 72 hrs. ? However, on the 4th “bump” warning the offending player will be disqualified and declared the loser for that game. ? (Note: ? You get only 3 warnings per game.) ? You must post the warning when it happens (or before the next move has been made by your opponent). ? You cannot retroactively issue a “bump” warning. ? (For example, if the game is in round 8 you cannot go back and issue a warning that occurred in round 7). ? “Bump” warnings can be issued for posting of partial turns (i.e. someone only posted their purchases), OOL requests, map questions, etc. but they follow the same 72 hour requirement.
5e - If a turn is not posted within 9 days of either the previous turn post (or request for decision on casualty choice, scrambling, kamikaze, etcetera) or the end of a predetermined “vacation”, then the player failing to post may be declared in default and lose the game
