Constitution on Playing the Save
Article E - Playing the Save
Playing the Save Act
The Playing The Save Act
Section 1
The DP for each game session, including special sessions, must maintain a log of their actions in sufficient detail that another citizen may generally recreate their actions.
All official instructions must be posted in the current game session instruction thread. Instructions must be clear and defined. Officials must post their instructions at least one hour before the scheduled start of the game session. Officials may make changes to their instructions up to an hour before the session, so long as those changes are clearly noted. Officials that do not post instructions for a game session are considered to have given the DP complete control over their area for that game session, even should they be at the game session.
During a game session, citizens are encouraged to comment and offer advice to the DP. The DP may also seek comments from citizens. The DP is not required to do so, and is not required in any way to follow any such advice.
The game session may last for as long as there are relevant instructions, until a posted instruction says to hold the session or when the DP decides to end the session. Once a game session is over, the DP must post a summary of that session, a detailed log of their actions, and a save in the instruction thread and in the summary thread.

Article E - Playing the Save
- No person may play the save other than a Designated Player specifically tasked to do so, or an official who is required to attempt certain actions to get information about what is possible in the game.
- If any action must be performed outside a scheduled play session, to obtain information about possible options, the game must then be immediately closed without saving, and without performing further actions.
- Obtaining information which would not be visible to someone playing the game, at the current point in time reflected by the current saved game or a previous saved game, by any mechanism, is prohibited. As noted in Section 1.a of this Article, actions performed by an official, where performing the action is the only way to determine options, are permitted as long as the game is immediately closed following such investigation.
- Inadvertent discovery of information shall not result in any penalty, provided no attempt is made to further disseminate the information or use it to advantage within the game.
- Use of any exploits is prohibited. No person may manipulate the game in any way other than by normal play mechanisms, unless expressly permitted by law.
- Lower forms of law are free to (and expected to) further define what actions are allowed and disallowed by this rule.

Turnchat guide
)If we don't get a planed date from him before he leaves it still might be better for you to do it Hyronymus, otherwise his will be 2-3 days after the 11th for notification purposes, I'll bet if you can play soon after the coming weekend Dave will have enough time to play before his second absence.
I could go ahead with Monday evening, then we avoid the uncertainty of the following week.
I think that officials should start making their instructions if the TC is Monday Evening American time.
Will I be able to play twice this term?
How right I was
Falcon, any indication when you're going to do the next turnchat, so we know when we should post our (many) polls.

Well, next real chance for me will be Wed. or Thurs. next week. Closest other option is Thurs. or Friday this week (which isn't much time).
