14 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: (LovelyPinkEgg): This gon' be an interesting game! Two left:)
14 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: (Ashtar): :(
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @ERE: Greetings. In the hope of a long term alliance and disengaging our closely entwined empires might you consider swopping Trebizond for Syracuse? Also so we don't bounce: Tarsus and somewhere else could be divided between us? Let me know your thoughts...
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @Arabs thanks for such a message. I am totally down. The switch would be nice, it would stabilise both of the regions a lot. The question is, do you want to do it in the very first turn, or in autumn? I suggest the better way would be right now, we can agree on moves and if one of us breaks the deal, at least we'll know, where we stand. What do you say? And if you don't mind, I feel like Tarsus should be mine (even better if we swap Trebizond and Syracuse) and Cagliari should be yours. In that way, you'll control the west, I'll control the east..
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @Slavs hello. I think we should agree on how we'll split the Balkans. Would it be okay for you, if I tap Buda, so you can take Pest and I'll take Ragusa in the autumn? Or what do you suppose?
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @ERE: I agree - let's exchange Treb/Syr this first turn. I will head to Tyrr Sea to take Cag so no bouncing. Reluctantly Tarsus is yours! Here's to a long alliance.
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @Arabs I'm confused a little bit. Tunis can go for Cagliari and Syracuse will leave it's place, so the fleet in Palermo can take it right away. I would like it more this way, than you going Palermo - Tyrrhenian and Tunis - Libyan. Is that alright for you? And for the east, I suppose you should go Trebizond - Taron. I will move Ankara - Trebizond. I know you'll have a lot of unused units in this location, but Smyrna can move to Eastern Mediterranean to tap Alexandria. You can take Jerusalem in autumn. Also I want to trade this way because I don't know how @Slavs will interact (no offense, I just haven't heard from you yet). They might go for Trebizond too and if we lose it to them, it would be the worst scenario. Thanks! Happy about this!)
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: I wasn't going to take SYR first year - just happy that you vacated it for me to take in year 2. But I wanted 2 units adjacent to CAG to ensure nobody else got it except me. In the East I will move to Taron of course. But not wanting to upset you I will take SYR first turn and hope I get lucky with CAG - you will of course have to take a more proactive course to get me into CAG in year 2 if I don't make it first time! Also happy about this!
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @Francia - Hello neighbour! I would like to avoid conflict between us, and was wondering how you'd like to split the land of Mainz/Zürich. I'd prefer having Zürich, what do you think?
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @Arabs thanks a lot! You're making it work and I appreciate it. But the thing is, if you take Syracuse the very first turn, I'll move into Tyrrhenian and in case of danger, I can support you into Cagliari. That's no problem.
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @Burgundy I would like to avoid conflicts and that's why supporting Arabian fleet into Cagliari is a win for me. But how do you feel about us two? I think we can bounce Ancona and in autumn I'll happily let you in. Is that good? Also Lombardy is quite a tough place for us and even for @Francia. What do both of you say about making it DMZ?
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @ERE I agree
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @Slavs great, my orders are in!
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @ERE I agree
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: @ERE A bounce works fine for me, and the Lombardy DMZ can be agreed so long as I'm allowed to enter Zurich by the Francians.
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: Duke of Burgundy. Since your territory is right in the middle of mine an alliance between us is going to be difficult but not impossible. I would like to avoid conflict too. I agree to the Mainz/Zurich split.
15 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: Actually I have to rethink that agreement. I'm not sure it's in my best interests.
16 Oct 19 UTC	Spring, 951: It looks like the Danes are going to miss this turn, so we'll probably have at least one more time a day to talk. @Arabs great, thanks!
16 Oct 19 UTC	Autumn, 951: Haha, the Danes didnt let you down guys!
16 Oct 19 UTC	Autumn, 951: Love it!!! @Arabs oh yikes.. Looks like we gotta fight:) @Everyone please look how he treats people he approaches!! @Slavs great, it worked out well for us. Would you please be so nice and support move Ankara to Trebizond? I have no problem if you take even Buda, although I would appreciate if you do it next year.. Spalato is moving to Ragusa, don't worry. I might help you into Graz next year, would you be down for cooperation?
