What difference does the game make? It was the nature of the comments, nothing
to do with the game, which is fine. If you think that a monthly turnaround
isn't poor, then fair enough. But I do.

Now I'm confused. The game I'm playing in was less than halfway through the
season?

Nonsense, I was quite happy to just drop out and leave it at that, Chris
decided he needed a parting shot.

I suppose it didn't really. But I couldn't for the life of me understand why it
was that Chris said he had to open 6-700 letters when he came back from his
holiday. As you also work for Spellbinder Games, surely you would have done the
admin in his absence? As Spellbinder is a large scale long running PBM
operation it surprises me that things grind to a halt because one staff member
has a holiday.
