Aj The Epic and thezmon221 are banned from playing games for 3 weeks for discussing ongoing games. Any game they are still in will need to find a replacement. We apologize for any inconvenience this creates.

Please be aware that we take discussing ongoing games very seriously. This INCLUDES communications that occur off site, and it includes games that you are not personally involved in. Mods can modify this (allowing, for example, dead chats and the like), but without doing so, please keep commentary on the game to yourself, especially if there is a party present who is in the game.
