Eugene, I understand but I talk to him and he said that he can play now. He is on a holiday in Egypt but he has internet connection and laptop with civ. I've sent you his mobile phone number - you can set up your game with him now (9-12.VI.2009) when you have time. He said that can play any time of day, only you have to tell him exact hour so he might accomodate.
I agree that he was absent more - I even wanted to let you advance by K.O. but because Martin said that can play today and following days I decided to give him last chance... Please post on our forum or send him sms ok?
