21 Jun 17 UTC Spring, 1939: Good luck and have fun everyone!
21 Jun 17 UTC Spring, 1939: Same to you!
24 Jun 17 UTC Autumn, 1939: My Gratulation to your very good start
26 Jun 17 UTC Autumn, 1940: GameMaster: Japanese Empire voted for a Cancel. If everyone votes Cancel all points will be refunded and the game will be deleted from the database.
26 Jun 17 UTC Autumn, 1940: An inactive France will add to a grave disbalance in the game. Not to keen on playing such a game.
26 Jun 17 UTC Autumn, 1940: I'm really sorry, I arrive too late
26 Jun 17 UTC Autumn, 1940: I mean it's not ideal but France was bound to lose Thailand anyway this turn. I guess the major difference would have been them being able to keep Marseilles. I don't know if you can call that a huge imbalance.
26 Jun 17 UTC Autumn, 1940: It's holding Marseille, holding Mid-Atlantic (could've even tried a convoy into Morocco for example), bouncing western med. Various possibilities that perhaps would not change the eventual course of the game itself, but do give you and Italy an easy and valuable bonus.

Of course it turns out to be an accident, rather than a deliberate choice to not register orders - meaning we can simply move forward with France participating again. Yet, it remains rather annoying
28 Jul 17 UTC Autumn, 1948: GameMaster: Someone has taken over Italian Empire replacing "TheFlagMan". Reconsider your alliances.
29 Jul 17 UTC Spring, 1949: Hi everyone! I know I'm joining for a CD, but I'm happy to join the game and am willing and able to play.
01 Aug 17 UTC Autumn, 1949: GameMaster: Soviet Union 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.
03 Aug 17 UTC Good game everyone. I suppose there's still plenty that might have happened in this game, but if anyone of the bigger nations would've grown too rapidly, pretty certainly the other two would've turned against them. I would have been forced to abandon Europe in a couple of years but pretty surely I would have been able to organize my defense in Asia and avoid losing too much ground.

I gotta compliment the cooperation of Soviet Union and Germany, there didn't seem to be a crack in your alliance at any point during your ten-year partnership. Very nice dedication even though I tried to drive so many wedges between you.
03 Aug 17 UTC Good game all, excellent communication between all of you. Thank you for the excellent partnership from germany and japan you were both excellent allies, diplomats, and strategists. I look forward to any future games we join.
03 Aug 17 UTC My sincere gratitude to you as well, Nemesis. We started out with poor understanding and miscommunication, yet I appreciate it that after I had proven my commitment to you, you didn't take advantage of the gradual destruction of my empire by the British.

At the same time, thank you Abadu for the excellent fight. It wasn't really a fight as it was mostly trying to find the most logical defensive play against your inflation of navies - but it was interesting nonetheless.

Lastly, i've noticed that this variant isn't really my cup of tea. It feels quite similar to the WWII map where your starting position is an empire with quite some sc's as well. It's really easy for one power to grow out of proportion at an early stage in the game, which will immediately create counter alliances easily resulting in boring stalemate lines..
