If Richard is willing to take on that responsibility, then God bless him.
However, maybe a mixture of the two ideas would help to spread the work load
around. I mean, there is not a whole lot of work anyhow unless it is all left to
one person and that person has active players in one or two of their sectors.
Then it is a lot of work.
I have given the inter sector travel some thought, and Andrew Engstrom pointed
out a good thing to consider, and that was about players with no sector of
origin. (Please read his posting). Other than that, I can not really see any
problems that might arise from the SM's handling the traffic. That allows
Richard and Hendo to focus on bigger things, like having fun and playing, and
ship registry.
I will back Richard taking over the GM duties for a time, until Hendo returns to
his rightful place, but only if Richard wants to. I don't want to force anything
on anyone.
How about we do this: we have Richard as Galactic Regent while Hendo is gone.
The SM's will help to lighten the load by handling inter sector travel. If there
is a new player with no home sector, then the Regent steps in. Otherwise, the
SM's can calculate out the ETA of arrival to the destination sector of each
departing ship from their sectors.
