29 Oct 25 UTC	Spring, 1454: Let's get this party started!
21 Nov 25 UTC	Spring, 1461: GameMaster: Ferrara voted for a Draw. If everyone votes Draw the game will end and the points are split equally among all the surviving players, regardless of how many supply centers each player has.
24 Nov 25 UTC	Autumn, 1462: GameMaster: Someone has taken over Napoli replacing "GaiusSeius". Reconsider your alliances.
08 Dec 25 UTC	GG everyone
08 Dec 25 UTC	oh crap it ended
08 Dec 25 UTC	ggs
08 Dec 25 UTC	Thanks Fssuarts for stopping your offensive, giving me the chance to defend myself from the Venetian ;)
08 Dec 25 UTC	I can hardly say GGs. I never stood a chance to begin with. what an unbalanced variant for me and turkey
08 Dec 25 UTC	especially in gunboat
08 Dec 25 UTC	Yea I forgot why I don’t like this variant in gunboat form. Now I remember lol.
08 Dec 25 UTC	Yeah, this variant is terrible on gunboat
08 Dec 25 UTC	Yeah!
08 Dec 25 UTC	Well done everyone! Napoli, I reckon a two-way draw was in the cards. Roma was out of my reach anyway. What do you think?
08 Dec 25 UTC	I also think it would have been technically possible, but to betray the others in their brave fight against a solo was morally impossible. :-)
08 Dec 25 UTC	GG. I felt annoyed that Firenze and Genoa had kept fighting me while I was trying to fight the larger powers.
09 Dec 25 UTC	I was initially trying to stop Venezia, but Napoli took advantage of that and attacked me. It seemed like an obvious "if you attack me, then Venezia wins" situation, so I set out to make that happen. Then the Napoli leader quit, and it was clear that even with me trying to give Venezia the game, it was going to be a slog. Since the stalemate was so trivial to set up, I changed to that strategy for the sake of expediency. But yeah, it's clear why this map can't be played for vPoints. It's completely luck of the draw whether you get a viable starting position or not - and the stalemate lines are horrendous. Good game, all.
