19 Jul 17 UTC Spring, 1960: GameMaster: Please remember that negotiations before the game begins are not allowed.
19 Jul 17 UTC Spring, 1960: Info: This is a choose your country game.
19 Jul 17 UTC Spring, 1960: Good luck and have fun ;-)
20 Jul 17 UTC Autumn, 1960: Right back at ya!
05 Aug 17 UTC Autumn, 1963: You have a better feel for this variant than I have. Yet, i still hope and think it's doable to pull this game to my end ;-)
05 Aug 17 UTC Autumn, 1963: Hmm, yeah I somewhat enjoyed stashing most of your armies in Asia ;) Man, if I only had guessed Seoul/Vladivostok right I think they might still be a slim chance (no builds for you) but now it looks a bit grim.
05 Aug 17 UTC Autumn, 1963: Hahah, yes i'm extremely glad you didn't get that one. (that would've sucked majorly) At the same time i hoped you'd be blocking NY yet you were smart enough to go for LA ;-)

I'm going to need a bit of time to figure out how and where to spend this 1 build i got. It really could determine whether i'll make the victory or not.
05 Aug 17 UTC Autumn, 1963: Yup, I'll also spend a little time calculating this game 3 more years ahead ;)
09 Aug 17 UTC Spring, 1964: I really hope it's not annoying you that I am taking so much time to fill in my orders. I am crazy busy at the moment and really have way too much games on my hand at the moment (that WWIV game is a horrible time consumer, you might want to be glad you're not taking part in it haha).
09 Aug 17 UTC Spring, 1964: Don't worry, my 11 other games keep me pretty busy as well :) I don't mind taking this one all the way to the deadline, it's actually helpful to return to your orders and try to re-iterate them.
10 Aug 17 UTC Hahaha, this sure feels like a chair dance.
10 Aug 17 UTC Sure does :) This starts to be some advanced calculus but I believe you have won the game. I should be in West Canada now...
10 Aug 17 UTC I have done a very quick calculation, which is exposed to human error, but I believe I have a checkmate position..
10 Aug 17 UTC Though it's a close one. Because if my calculation is correct i'll be able to make solely the 18 necessary for victory, nothing more ;-)
10 Aug 17 UTC Yup, now I just have to decide which countries look best in blue. Hah, and Cuba crisis resolved in my favor!
10 Aug 17 UTC Who cares about losing New York.
10 Aug 17 UTC Hahah, well i always considered the Cuba Crisis a highly underrated historical event. You seem to be the real winner of the cold war ;-)
10 Aug 17 UTC Excellent matches Abadu, was nice playing against you.

You might anyway be moving up 1 spot on the list as i'm considering withdrawing from the ladder. Whilst I do think it is fun to keep practicing, my forte is definitely not 1 vs 1 games.
10 Aug 17 UTC Congrats! Would you like to post on the forum? You should probably challenge someone above you on the ladder before there's a renewed challenge from below after the waiting period ;)
10 Aug 17 UTC I will make a post on the forum about our draw. Then i'll see whether i'm going to challenge someone again. I believe i could go for a rematch against Jimbozig, dunno who the other person above me is within my challenge range.
