12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (Titus): only 5 more, interesting map, any guidance |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (tassa): how exactly is this match supposed to be semi-anon? |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (G-Man): Lots of returning players in the series makes it likely you may identify players you've encountered in the series previously. Though, to his credit, bozo is always damn hard to spot! |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (G-Man): 1st time with this map myself, but I like how it takes Classic Diplomacy (all 7 traditional European powers) and plays upon old world colonialism hard, including Africa, but marrying many elements from Classic Colonial Diplomacy as well. |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (tassa): but no transsib :( |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (G-Man): No, managing the empire does not look easy in this variant! |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (tassa): any nation wishes? |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (G-Man): I've invited players from our last game and the one before that. If it doesn't fill tonight, I'll hit players up from the next most recent game (going back a game a day until spots are filled. I just want to be urge not to over invite and to give those invited time to respond before moving to the next game for invites). |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (G-Man): urge = sure (iPad auto-f@#k-up!) |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (Mapu): I'm afraid to say I don't want Turkey (look at the stats) because I know I'll end up with Turkey if I say something. |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (Titus): although the sample may be too small for the statistics to be meaningful. |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (G-Man): Let's hope! Game creator seems to get burned with stinky countries more than their fair share. |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (G-Man): looks like it's going to be tough sledding for most powers |
12 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: (G-Man): Ahoy mates, this is going to be a good match! |
13 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: ohhh, that's fuckin' great. turkey... well then, good luck everybody :D |
13 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1885: Just in time for thanksgiving in the USA. Who's Hungary (besides Austria?) |
20 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1886: I see Rangoon near me and I can't help but be reminded of Dr. Evil's upbringing. Dr Evil: Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Some times he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy, the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical, summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds, pretty standard really. At the age of 12 I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen, a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum, it's breathtaking, I suggest you try it. |
20 Nov 14 UTC | Spring, 1886: LMAO! |
