Thanks to whomever extended the timer already to accommodate that. My earlier login was just checking stuff out; I think I moved 1 unit, which I don't think should stop anyone else playing?
OOS is usually caused by being online at the turn roll, and easily fixed by logging out.
Also, let this be a gentle reminder that while it's possible to stay logged in the entire time, you are encouraged to only log in to actually play the turn for a variety of reasons. (Several people have firewalls that bounce off each other, turn-split issues, trade requests, etc)

That's sad to hear, you've definitely been a presence in this game. None of the deds are willing to share turnplay duties and keep the team together?

Hey thrawn, I'm completely unspoiled and can jump in for you to keep things going. I checked in with Magic first due to our recent PB74 clash and he's cool with it.
I'm glad you got in a wraparound turn, as it should give me enough time to catch up on things without delaying the game.

Great news! I was about to offer to be a caretaker, but I'm pretty spoiled and wouldn't be much more than a caretaker, so you're a much better choice. Best of luck!

Thanks for the welcome, guys. I just read through thrawn's entire thread and am now wondering what I've gotten myself into. 
Still looks like a lot of fun!

...
I'll post detailed overview and handover notes shortly. Can someone please add plenty of time after Gav rolls the turn, like 48h, so DZ can comfortably look at everything and ask any questions if he has before he takes over?
Glad to help, thrawn. I've already read your entire thread, so I'm fine with a brief overview of the current situation if you're pressed for time.
It looks like the turn just rolled, so I will need your game password to proceed. 48 hours should be enough to get me up to speed, so thanks for the consideration.
EDIT: Looks like you beat me to it. Thanks!

Ha, tech issues already. I tried to look at the game before leaving for work today and get a crash message saying I'm using the wrong mod when I have CtH 5.0 applied. And I can't post the screenshot I made because I can't find my images on Imgur. Geez, I've only been out of circulation for 4-5 months!
I'd likely be able to figure these out myself if I had the time, but if anyone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. I'm thinking the mod mismatch could be due to me not adding the bts wrapper to Steam (I just added Civ 4 to a different computer) so if someone could send me a link to those instructions, I'm guessing that could be the fix unless we're now on 5.0.1 or something. Thanks in advance for your help.
EDIT: I already have the “Unsupported” beta selected on Steam.
