25 Mar 13 UTC	Spring, 1901: 7 islands. Germany gets the short end of the stick I think. And Austria too, although it has an outside shot of Crete in 1902.
25 Mar 13 UTC	Spring, 1901: I disagree. Austria benefits because Turkey doesn't go for the balkans right away, and Germany doesn't need to worry as much about england on turn 1 (i.e. he can take both low countries.) It's true that Germany gets a rough start but i think the worst off is russia.
26 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Ouch!
26 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1901: You didn't expected that I was going to Munich right?
26 Mar 13 UTC	Spring, 1902: Maybe not so soon ;)
29 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: I do expect you'll go for munich this time, maybe my kiel army with support from ruhr will prevent you and russia from visiting the hofbrauhaus ;)
29 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: To follow on from italian/english earlier discussion, I see how england, italy and turkey get early advantage by free access to island SCs, does that lead later in the game to a disadvantage as they have committed so much resource to fleets? Currently, italy has 5, turkey 3 and england 6, whereas russia has kept pace with their growth without building any fleets - most SCs are on the mainland, do his armies give him the advantage later? Interested in your thoughts... and how it will pan out
29 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: Yeah, but Italy and England don't necessarily need armies, at least not many. For now Turkey is bottled up. Even in the Ionian he can't do any damage.
29 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: Hey guys, can we pause this game for a week? I'm going away tomorrow evening and it would be easier for me if I didn't have to search for internet every day. I can do it, it's not that but it would be simpler if we could pause. Thanks in advance :)
29 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: GameMaster: Turkey voted for a Pause. If everyone votes Pause the game stop and wait till everybody votes Unpause. Please consider backing this.
29 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: Yeah, sure, I'm for letting the guy enjoy his spring break.
29 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: GameMaster: England voted for a Extend. If 2/3 of the active players vote Extend the the current phase will be extend by 4 days. Please consider backing this. If the majority is not reached by "Autumn, 1904" the votes will be cleared.
29 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: damn, i didnt get 3 builds again :)
30 Mar 13 UTC	Spring, 1904: Not as good as a hat-trick, but what I wouldn't give for your brace lol
30 Mar 13 UTC	Spring, 1904: Damn, looks like I'm the second to bow out, still, marseilles has some great beaches lol ;)
30 Mar 13 UTC	Spring, 1904: ^^ I like this guy.
30 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1904: GameMaster: Extend-request didn't reach 2/3 majority. All extend-votes cleared.
31 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1904: I admit, I'm very surprised with this game. This is the first time i've ever seen a juggernaut where Turkey comes out on top. This is a ridiculously unfair map though so it makes sense.
31 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1904: I thought playing Italy would be fun in 7 Islands. Oh boy was I wrong. It is a challenge.
31 Mar 13 UTC	Autumn, 1904: yeah the problem is that Austria is doomed from the start so you have no buffer between you and turkey, who also gets the lions share of the balkans. They change everything, these islands.
