28 Aug 17 UTC Spring, 1901: Dr. Recommended (Gamedirector): Games 4-9 are all extended to the planned time frame, but go ahead and ready orders as soon as you're willing to start each game. I expect some will leave orders saved or not entered for the duration of the 3- or 6-week period, and that's absolutely fine. However, if it happens that all are ready to start other games ahead of time, I'm all for it.
15 Dec 17 UTC Well played Bozo. If Spain hadn't been such a pest after the stab, I thought we could have had a decent chance in stopping you.
15 Dec 17 UTC Thanks, good game.
15 Dec 17 UTC Nice win Bozo! Shah, that is exactly what I thought. I guess that was his intent though, and we can't blame him. If he was going to lose, why not take us with him. We had some lucky guessing on each others moves for awhile, but the south was too hard to hold with Spain slowing us down.
16 Dec 17 UTC I never stood a chance after sprints 1905. Spartan you basically put the nail in the coffin with your distracted and ineffectual (for you) sniping of Cyrenaica and Cairo.

Shah, you were going to be my best ally if I could only hold on long enough, but I had nothing left to try to slow bozo up when he continued to press in force, and I couldn’t preoccupy d-ice enough that you could sweep in and supplant him to have the position from which to challenge bozo.

Disappointing situation for me this game. Well done and congrats bozo.
16 Dec 17 UTC This was difficult game because Sicily and Ireland started so aggressively against me. Samj I really tried to be your friend and destroyed my fleet at 1905 when you have taken Alcuyud back. But then you just attacked again. After last stab I just tried to survive.
16 Dec 17 UTC I know I ruined Israel’s game by continuing the attack when Ukraine rolled over my home SCs, but at that point I really had no better alternative. I decided already before game’s start that getting rid of Israel would be the key to success with Byzantium. I still think that’s true (at least in gunboat). The reason is simple, Israel has such a great stab potential against Byz that once a BI alliance get powerful enough the stab is bound to happen and then it’s only a matter of preventing an Israeli solo... hence I figured I should attack ASAP and hope that the other neighbors had other priorities than me. Didn’t work out too well...

At the most critical time I was still hoping someone (I.e. Poland) would pressure Ukraine from the north to allow me some breathing space and securing the corner to squeeze Ukr in a two-front war. But when that never happened the game was over. Grats Bozo
