IOD Date
(Preview)
All - The current date for the IOD is 2/27. I've been asked if it would be possible to move that to 3/5. That's fine by me, but I know it's possible that the new date doesn't work for others who have planned to be available for 2/27. Thus, if anyone has issues with 3/5 please let me know by posting or email...

Surprise strikes back with their own Brooklyn deal
(Preview)
I had given up on making any more deals before the 1st trading period deadline, but then our new Rome rivals added A-Roid! Hey, aren't we supposed to be the villains in this tale?
