23 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: (The Ambassador): Long time since I last played this one. Looking forward to it.
23 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: (MerlijnvL): Oke...
23 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: (webdipper123): I'd like to be Japan or Thailand, maybe India but not China or Russia, they are too big to defend.
23 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: (MerlijnvL): Hello everyone. If you let me win, then it quickly passed!
23 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: (Matticus13): Never played this variant. Looking forward to it.
23 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: (webdipper123): Me too
23 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: (The Ambassador): Based on the game title I propose we play this while entering orders: https://youtu.be/S33abzXQfkc?t=35s
23 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: (webdipper123): Haha
26 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: GameMaster: NMR from Russia. Send the country in CD.
26 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: GameMaster: Missing orders for Spring, 1870 (Diplomacy) from a country with 2 or more SCs. Extending phase.The game will continue after this phase even if you do not find a replacement.
26 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1870: GameMaster: Someone has taken over Russia replacing "MerlijnvL". Reconsider your alliances.
25 Mar 17 UTC Autumn, 1876: GameMaster: Holland voted for a Concede. If everyone (but one) votes Concede the game will end and the player _not_ voting Conceede will get all the points. Everybody else will get a defeat.
03 Apr 17 UTC GG all and well done Matticus on the great win.
03 Apr 17 UTC GG all. Thanks Ambassador. England and Japan are very OP apparently. This map just doesn't seem well suited for GB for that reason. Diplomacy would be about the only way to effectively counter Japan or Britain.
03 Apr 17 UTC Can someone explain why my D went up more than my share of the pot? A little confused.
04 Apr 17 UTC Matticus you taking about your VDip points? If so it'all be because you beat higher ranked players on the game (4 of us were above you). Good question though.
04 Apr 17 UTC FYI - I plan to cover off this variant and talk about this game in episode 16 of the Diplomacy Games podcast. If anyone has any EOG statements and thoughts about this variant please post here so I can get your perspectives out.
04 Apr 17 UTC Ah, that's it. Thanks Ambassador.

I'll write a more detailed EOG statement later this evening :)
04 Apr 17 UTC I am glad to survive this game.

At the beginning, I am too focused on battling Rusia and not prepared to defend against Britain. That is why I lost.
04 Apr 17 UTC Well, I lost at the very first autumn, I had fleet in Andaman and Java Sea and I tried to get Sin and I went for Ran. That allowed Britain to make pressure against me and then he fully attack me after he easily took out Turkey, because he bounces me in the very first year. But I had to take Mal with support (I had two fleets against his one in the very first year). But I need to say well played Matticus, nice win, good game.
