[MN-dip] mn_std01 - Baby to arrive... soon

[Chad Walstrom]

Well, it looks like the mn_std01 game is chugging along, though I have
a little announcement to make.  As you may or may not know, my wife is
pregnant with our second child and is due to deliver pretty much any
day now.  The original due date was the 17th of April, though the doc
has given us overtones of inducing as early as the 6th (this Friday).

I will not be able to act as game master during the time we're in the
hospital, and you never really know how long that might be.  It could
be as little as a single day, a week, or longer.  Let's hope it's on
the short side of things.

In any case, the game has been going relatively smoothly up to this
point.  I have not had to intervene much, and I hope things continue
along in this manner.  If for some reason my assistance is needed
during the time we're in the hospital, I may simply move the deadline
out or add in some "holiday" time to the game.

An alternative would be to have a co-game-master, with whom I could
share the game password.  I could set up a procmail script to
auto-forward any Master press and info.  I will propose this to the
players via broadcast press as well.  It would be up to them to decide
if a co-game-master is acceptable.  If it is and anyone wants to
volunteer, let me know.  Obviously, the game master would have to be
someone not currently involved with the game. ;-)
