Rolenty You have 10 hours before you're subbed out. This is well past the original deadline but wanted to give one more opportunity.

PociekMociek Universes If Rolenty is subbed out, you two will be playing. I encourage you to schedule now just in case. I've talked to Universes and it seems he is away this weekend so if you cannot find a time before he leaves then I will grant you until 11:59 Tuesday night -5.

Update: Rolenty was subbed out.
