15 Aug 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: (TheWorldCouldBeSoDifferent): Good luck everyone
05 Sep 18 UTC	Autumn, 1908: GameMaster: Turkey 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 Oct 18 UTC	Great. Thank you for the Draw vote, German.
03 Oct 18 UTC	Thank you for Russia too that stabilize our border despite my attacks before I realized your intention.
03 Oct 18 UTC	I got et all up!
03 Oct 18 UTC	This was a really good game. I try to hold the line vs Turkey. And i was happy as i can see that Turkey attacks Italy in 1911. It was a tough and long war Xildur. Thanks Germany for our alliance. I just could hold the line because i got just one unit in Scandinavia. I am getting bad in breaking alliances but it was a bit boring and i knew you was fighting for the solo win. But Turkey and me liked our permanent war. It took a while until we end it for a possible draw. I really liked that game. Also because we was playing fast. Thanks for that and for a good game.
03 Oct 18 UTC	My first gunboat game. Playing in blindly in a sense. Tried to signal through supports, including clearly unnecessary supports to a neighbor, for example. Is there any communication convention (like in bridge bidding) that has developed in gunboat?
03 Oct 18 UTC	good game! Italy had it out for me!
04 Oct 18 UTC	Sorry France, I did notice your intentions of an alliance, it's just when you attacked the North Sea to get London that did it for me and I made you a target. Italy, I tried to support you to Portugal 2 or 3 times and I was going to draw after that, but you never tried for it. I know it's hard when the failed orders don't show up and I got a bit annoyed so attacked you so I could take it myself then draw (I actually put the vote in, but cancelled it again when I realised I could solo). GB, I can't really remember you, but sorry for teaming up against you, someone always gets double teamed though, just happened to be you. Austria, you draw the short straw, but thanks for not attacking me. Turkey, I was pleased by how quickly you noticed the danger of a German fleet being near you, by stopping me from getting Venice you prevented the solo. Finally Russia, I owe you a massive thank you, because of your supreme loyalty I was able to fortify the front and leave the backdoor open. I couldn't have done it without you it's as simple as that. However I was really annoyed when you stabbed me and stop me from the solo, but you're worthy of the draw in my eyes. I would like to know how you knew it was time to attack me though? You got there just in time and just like Turkey, prevented the solo by 1 SC. Thanks everyone for a good game, I really enjoyed it.
04 Oct 18 UTC	@France : There are couple moves that generally thought as signal, like support, giving Cancel/Draw vote, and others. But the condition also make it differs. That is why gunboat, especially Fog of War condition, make it hard for us to communicate since we don't get overall picture.
04 Oct 18 UTC	Its always annoying if you got stopped before a solo. I was just counting the SC. I saw that Turkey fighted in Greece and Venice. I knew that Italy was small but alive and my biggest worry was that my attack comes too late. And indeed it was very close.
