12 Feb 18 UTC | Spring, 1960: GameMaster: Please remember that negotiations before the game begins are not allowed. |
12 Feb 18 UTC | Spring, 1960: Info: This is a choose your country game. |
14 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1961: Hmm. Hating my position other game. A little better here... you should have played me first round. Never played variant before. I was awful! |
14 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1961: Actually it was worse than that. Had never played a two player variant. Didn’t know it’s all about defending/taking already owned territories. Empty SCs less important. I went grabbing the neutrals and got killed. Haha |
15 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1962: Good game! |
17 Feb 18 UTC | Spring, 1963: I have no memory of entering builds here. Must have been drunk! Why in NY, surely London. May cost me the game but we shall see. Makes up for your input error in other game |
20 Feb 18 UTC | Spring, 1964: Argh!! Arabian Sea moves to Indian Ocean!! Not India. Comedy of errors |
22 Feb 18 UTC | Spring, 1965: 1-0 to you i think... |
22 Feb 18 UTC | Spring, 1965: Getting blown out of North Sea was unexpected. Good move. Can’t decide disband or retreat... |
23 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1966: Bold guess, Tunis to west med. thought you had to love Libya for safety. I needed Paris in exchange for Brazil, took a gamble and lost |
23 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1966: Again your coin made the right choice. |
23 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1966: I feel like we are way over the average game Length for this variant. And still chances for both sides to win |
23 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1966: I feel like we are way over the average game Length for this variant. And still chances for both sides to win |
23 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1966: Variant says average “turns” is 7. Is that 3.5 years (excluding retreat/build?). We are at 7 years |
24 Feb 18 UTC | Spring, 1967: You took Paris but you lost North sea again. |
24 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1967: Unavoidable. I’m struggling here. Looks like 1-1 |
24 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1967: Do you understand what's happening in WWII tournament? In my game first YCHTT and now Argentinian Empire are slowing the game. YCHTT starts slowing when his position turns bad (he'll disappear in one or two turns) and AE is delaying the game of 5 days (his position is lost too because I'll reach 45 in one or two years) to stop my inarrestable advance. |
24 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1967: There's a malformed problem in the other game. Shfinkle played some dumb stuff, which is annoying but fine. Then has been NMR. It was an obvious 3 way draw with me 2nd place. Now it's an almost certain Russia solo. Undeserved. I suggested a pause there to sort it out. No need to pause your game |
24 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1967: "Major" problem. Not "malformed" |
24 Feb 18 UTC | Autumn, 1967: If it was one game it would be fine too. But can't have a tournament with a rogue player messing it up. Going to make the next 4 games pointless |
