04 Feb 20 UTC	Spring, 1901: Hello, have fun everyone! Turkey would like to remain neutral in this game :)
04 Feb 20 UTC	Spring, 1901: Neutral indeed. There are no fools here.
04 Feb 20 UTC	Spring, 1901: Have a good game, all!
06 Feb 20 UTC	Spring, 1901: Do not believe the lies, my friends. Italy and I are not at war, we are no fools. Let us trace back to whence they stemmed, so we can unearth this dishonest rat from within our midst. Who heard the illicit rumours of my attack first; that person will be a proven charlatan. Let 1901 be a peaceful year for all.
06 Feb 20 UTC	Spring, 1901: Interesting that Italy says nothing on the matter - do you concur with the French?
06 Feb 20 UTC	Spring, 1901: I have no reason to disagree, no.
08 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: An interesting opening move. But I'm proud of the shared trust I have with my European colleagues. Good work all.
12 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Is it just me, or is it unseasonably warm at this time of year? An Indian Summer perhaps?
12 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Perhaps the Cossack heralds have been held up by melted permafrost?
12 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: What happened, weren't we meant to have just all moved? I don't see that having happened though. Did that get bumped by 24h, or am I going mad?
12 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Ah, we've had an email saying it's been delayed.
12 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: "At least 1 country still needs to enter orders!" as at now :-/ - are we going to use the same again tomorrow??
12 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Just 'cause you can't decide between Munich and Belgium, eh. Get them in France, get them in.
12 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Not me guv!
12 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Still not looking great :(
12 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Does it process immediately that the delinquent power gets their orders in, or does it wait the full 24 hours (unless everybody sets Ready)? Hopefully it's the latter. Otherwise, as the deadline approaches, the nearby powers to the non-submitter (obvious by which powers haven't still been sending press) would know to change their orders.
13 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: I think if everyone selects "Ready" it processes immediately. If one or more countries instead uses "Save" it waits until the end of the phase. That would mean there's no way of knowing whether other countries have entered orders beforehand.
13 Feb 20 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Actually, I think that if someone doesn't enter orders the phase is extended though (like yesterday), so it should never matter?
17 Feb 20 UTC	Spring, 1902: I worry we're heading for the same situation again... "At least 1 country still needs to enter orders!". If it's the same power as last time, I think the game won't extend for them a second time and their moves will all be holds, which'd be much worse than trying to sort it out. Should we vote for an extension?
17 Feb 20 UTC	Spring, 1902: GameMaster: Austria voted for a Extend. If 2/3 of the active players vote Extend the the current phase will be extend by 4 days. Please consider backing this. If the majority is not reached by "Spring, 1903" the votes will be cleared.
