Message to All Players in This Game
Welcome to this new game of Continental Rails.
For a smoother play experience, please send your orders a few days before the due date. If you notice that you made a mistake or just change your mind in some way you can always send a new set of orders. Only the most recent one will be taken into account.
When sending your orders you with the HTML form you will be redirected to my web site where you will get a message confirming that the orders have been properly dispatched. A mail message will be also sent to confirm it but it may get caught in anti-spam filters so don't worry if you don't get it.
In most cases the due date is set on a Monday. I start checking that every player has sent me orders on the previous Saturday and a reminder is sent. The turn is run at the due date after 9 pm, Paris time.
Bienvenu dans cette nouvelle partie de Continental Rails.
Pour obtenir une meilleure expérience de jeu, envoyez si possible vos ordres quelques jours avant la date limite. Si vous vous rendez compte ensuite que vous avez fait une erreur ou que vous avez changé d'avis, vous avez toujours la possibilité d'envoyer de nouveaux ordres. Seuls les plus récents seront pris en compte.
Quand vous utilisez le formulaire pour envoyer les ordres, vous êtes redirigés vers mon site web où s'affichera un message confirmant que les ordres ont bien été reçus. Un courriel de confirmation vous est aussi envoyé, mais il peut être intercepté par les filtres anti-spam, donc ne vous inquiétez pas si vous ne le recevez pas.
Usuellement la date limite est fixée au lundi soir. Le samedi précédent je commence à vérifier que tous les ordres sont reçus, et un rappel est envoyé. Le tour est résolu à la date limite après 21h, heure de Paris.
Bon jeu !
