Just want to point out that it does not take an emissary to do those communications at the bottom of the turn entry sheet. Are we limiting communication to the 341 series of orders? Also, I assume we are not doing the couple of orders that exchange personal info? I don't mean to nitpick, just had too many gang-up games in a row, so I really enjoyed the anon game I just finished as there were no alliances and gang-ups  .
I was going to post this. Use the in game orders, but don't communicate outside the game. You will find that gang ups and alliances work very differently when communication is so limited and coordination is impossible. This is more like it was way back in the day.
This is still a little murky for me. Using orders 341-whatever is very different from in game messages. Which is it? Both? I am honestly hoping its limited to only orders and NO messages.

ONLY orders. No messages. The very limited communication requires gold, an emmissary, and an order. None of the 'here is my phone number' crap.

Please do not take any of my comments as a personal insult or as a criticism of the game 'Alamaze', which I very much enjoy. Rather, I hope that my personal insight and unique perspective may, in some way, help make 'Alamaze' more fun, a more successful financial venture, or simply more sustainable as a long-term project. Anyone who reads this post should feel completely free to ignore, disregard, scorn, implement, improve, dispute, or otherwise comment upon its content.

I am thinking about jumping back into Alamaze. I want to see how the new order entry works and I need to try and snatch up some more Honorifics and Achievements... 
I want to try an anonymous game, so if anyone drops from this queue, please put me in their spot.
Thanks,

So this game and the anon game LT started up have essentially been filled and ready to roll since 8/27. Any reason we aren't playing?
Certainly sucks to pay for a whole month of gaming only to have the no gaming part. If this game and the other anon game don't start this week I will be removing myself from both. Thanks.

Rick posted in another thread on Monday or so that he is waiting (maybe a week?) to start because all those awesome changes are being built in now. He said that if we are dying to start right now, we can start a thread called 'Emergency AESR'. If it fills, he will start it immediately.
Ask Support about the billing thing.

Yeah, I posted several times that my daughter was getting married in Chicago so everything got pushed back a week, except Cipher kept all existing games current. Meanwhile, Cipher and Uncle Mike have gotten the web based order validation and submission available to everyone.
There has been lots of discussion here on the forum about starting the games that formed when I had one week off in the last 18 months last week. Generally, players seem to be willing to wait a couple days to get the latest version.

Roger that. I must have missed those posts. I'm willing to wait then to see the new stuff.
Congrats on the wedding. As a father of two daughters myself I know how proud the moment must be for you.
