Yes, and taking into consideration we start on monday most possibly, sounds like If he won't reply I will place him at a ranom location and if he's under attack and he won't post that he strikes back with his weapon (starting wieapon = bare hands = 1 damage) he will be beat to death... that's a slow death...
Now for the game.
Each ROUND you
declare your actions publicly [ie: Mark: I cultivate the farms of ''Austrabia'' , PG: I hunt at the forests of C8. Ladyhawk: I am fishing at A27, NightAngel: I attack Driping D at C16 with my sword's blunt damge, Dimos and Deathnade attack player X at Exilianopolis (the last in each player's post and not in a single post made by one of them) etc... ].
Once you have build at least a house you can delcare youself king/duke/emperor whatever fancies you. You can send Vassal requests either via pm or in the game thread.
Diplomacy actions are enouraged such as ''reduce
tax for a specific player or faction that passes peacefuly through your lands'' , ''attack player or faction'' , ''pay money as tributary vassal'' , ''gain money as a mercenary'' and whatever else fancies you... 
It's a game of complete freedom!
