time limits?

[Fionn]

I was just wondering what you guys think of the following situation...

Opponent says he won't hav home email until January. Currently am on about my 5th day of waiting for our first turn. Is it worth bringing this to Vulture's attention? I have difficulty imagining that we'll be able to finish the game if we have a minimum 3 day turn around per file ( which is the best he can currently promise and which he hasn't achieved yet).

I had reservations about his commitment to the game right from the off. He wasn't able to meet the deadlines he set himself when I started, and once the game got going, I would wait for days (then my technical problems became apparent).

I would definitely flag it up, it's been a problem with this chap since the start.

I agree. Send a note to the team captain and Vulture (CC me, please) requesting that the player in question commit to: a) a more reasonable turn around (ie: one file per day), b) Step aside for a replacement player, or c) forfeit (last resort, I hope).

This far into the game, I would say any player who has not been able to do at least one file a day is dragging their feet (Dec 24 - 27 excepted for family visits, holiday festivities, etc.). A target of a one file per day or more should not be an unreasonable request.
