The worst part about sending in turns for multiple weeks is if resources
are involved, that is, you cant send in:

use 802 30
use 802 30
etc.

because if you share resources with someone on the first week,
the remaining use commands will also be used in that first week
and all fail, leaving you with no actions for the next two weeks -
but it can be done, ie.

use 802 29
make 94 31
stop
use 802 29
make 94 31
stop
use 802 29
make 94 31
etc.

Should alway go well, because no matter what resources are handy,
you'll always be doing "make 94 31" when the months end, and there
will always be a stop at the top of your next turn, letting the same
actions start over.

The worst about being on vacation if someone is out to get you -
you are a sitting duck - but then, you can always do as I do - take
a computer and a modem with you on vacation ;)
