[E-Announce] New Orders Backend, New Game

Hello Eressea, If you paid very close attention to your report this week, you may have noticed a subtle change: The Subject for your orders is now ERESSEA n ORDERS, where n is 2 for the classic Eressea game, 3 for the third age, and 4 for the recently started new game, which is called "Deveron" by popular decision. So if you are for example playing in E3, then please use the subject line ERESSEA 3 ORDERS from here on. The old Subjects will continue to work for a transition period, but I would very much like to standardize my backend such that I can add new games more easily. Today's turn delay was because of changes to the processing backend that accommodate game 4, which had its first turn. 100% of registered players sent their first turn, which I believe is a new record. Let's see how long we can keep doing zero NMR every week! Because numbers are boring and have no charisma, all my future games will have a name for the world. The world of game 4 is called "Deveron", by an instant-runoff vote from the players. The election proceeded as follows: In the first election round, "Deveron" received twice as many votes as the second-most popular option "Drense", but no absolute majority. Eliminating all options that got only a single vote and distributing them according to their second choice gave Deveron an edge, collecting 2/3rd of all the votes. So welcome to Deveron! Make yourselves at home.
