30 Sep 16 UTC	Spring, 1065: Hi all, not sure if random team allocation or if I got given "William the Bastard" on purpose? Also I note I only start with about nothing. Anyway good luck all - I'll be in touch. GeeWolf.
30 Sep 16 UTC	Spring, 1065: Ah yes, well you see that balances it slightly. And don't you dare come anywhere near my eye with those arrows.
11 Oct 16 UTC	Autumn, 1068: Someone leaving their next update quite close to the wire?....
14 Oct 16 UTC	Autumn, 1069: Today is the 950th anniversary of the Battle of Hastings. Bonjour.
14 Oct 16 UTC	Autumn, 1069: Looks like we're getting an encore.
14 Oct 16 UTC	Autumn, 1069: Today is the 950th anniversary of the Battle of Hastings. Bonjour.
14 Oct 16 UTC	Spring, 1070: yep afraid so.
17 Oct 16 UTC	Dear all, I think we have a small mistake in the game - and would propose we go to the moderators. I believe I have won with 10 supply centres controlled plus another's capital (I control Winchester), but I have not been credited with controlling GLD this turn - my fleet is in, but still shows as English.
17 Oct 16 UTC	I control GLD, OXF, LON, WIN, BRIT, BAY, CAEN, ROU, FLA, DEN, i.e. 10 including another capital
17 Oct 16 UTC	Its still autumn. You took gld in a spring turn.
17 Oct 16 UTC	Hold it for one more turn
17 Oct 16 UTC	OK, so a game can never be won in the Spring term, only in the Autumn term? I didn't realise that.
17 Oct 16 UTC	Yeah, because SCs are captured in Autumn, never Spring.
17 Oct 16 UTC	That's why there's also a builds after autumn and not spring.
17 Oct 16 UTC	Ah well, that was a good game
17 Oct 16 UTC	Very fitting that the Normans chipped in with the goods on the anniversary! Good game - thanks both, I learned a lot on how vDip works. And happy to be included in any future games...
