@Elrood I receive all MARTI emails…some go to my spam folder and others go to my inbox.
I have a folder for MARTI and all of them used to go there but after some updates they don’t go there anymore.

@Elrood You and Witt should decide who will do your turns…I don’t really want to stop this game for three weeks.

Damaged Japanese Heavy Cruiser Myōkō in Singapore four days after surrendering to Royal Navy units, tied up alongside are the submarines I-501 (ex U-181) and I-502 (ex U-862) - September 25, 1945
Myōkō had part of her stern blown off during a torpedo attack by the submarine USS Bergall SS-320 on December 13, 1944. With only one operating propeller and no steering she was towed to Singapore, however there were insufficient materials for the repairs and Myōkō was utilized as a floating anti-aircraft battery until the end of the war.
Kriegsmarine U-Boats U-181 & U-862 had been part of the “Monsun Gruppe” operating from Penang in the Indian Ocean. In May 1945 both were in Singapore Harbor where they were seized by the Japanese due to Germany’s surrender and re-designated I-501 (U-181) & I-502 (U-862).
Myōkō, I-501/U-181, and I-502/U-862 were towed to the Strait of Malacca in 1946 and scuttled off of Port Swettenham, Malaya (near present-day Port Klang, Malaysia).

@Elrood yeah, that’s what happens. Windows tries to open the file and it gets stuck. Then I have to shut down and do everything manually. It’s a hassle but as long as I can still play I can deal with it.

@Elrood Wayne hasn’t posted anything in nine days. Can somebody do Hisaichi to keep things rolling?

@Witt Yam is up…Wayne’s got US and he’ll probably want to save the dd at Pearl until all attacking subs are gone.

@Witt I’m changing my name to MAJOR Walker after this game! (I’ll deserve a promotion if I can pull this off… you guys are pressing me pretty hard. )

@barnee I’m guessing they put the bridge in after the first one got stuck
