18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Ah, thank you for inviting me back. I hope this game is as fun as the last one (and that I don't die)!
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Yes thank you G-Man you are a great host. Do we have to wear masks while playing or can this be like a fundraiser at the "French Laundry"?
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: The unit placement here does not allow for the USSR to easily implement the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact. I feel there should be an army bordering VIL
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Thanks! Since we’re all at least 6 provinces away from each other, and safety remains a top priority, you can consider this a mask-free game.
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: There is an obscene amount of starting fleets on this map.
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: I am prepared to lose the big one, if anyone has a better offer, please let me know!!
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Depends on which countries we are, my offer will probably consist of some kind of deal where I get your centers and you don't get anything
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: I will consider your generous surrender at this time. Thank you.

PS: What if this is just the same person sending all of the messages?
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Ok ok you caught me, they were all from me
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Carrying multiple personalities really helps with this.
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Some of those colonial possessions are rather strange: Peru British? Argentina French? and in 1937 Brazil was independent for more than 100 years... If we stretch history so far, the map could have lept one step further by giving turkey, siam, mexico and china some more stuff. just saying
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: I’m sure some of these decisions must have been purely for setup challenges.
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: I agree that it is weird, GB has so much stuff already, perhaps could have put standing armies in Brazil (barring another power) instead to reduce the free reign that France would have.
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: First and foremost, someone should have color-corrected this map. Half the powers on the board burn your eyes with crayon-eyecancer-beams. If that's not a reason to remove them, i don't know what is.
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: LOL!
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Viva la Mexico!
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Japan is yellow on the map, but Japan's name is not yellow, do others notice that or am I color blind?
18 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: No need to get your eyes checked. My guess is the yellow font for text blended in too much with the white background
19 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: China is number one. I’ll send some press in a little bit once I get the lay of the land.
19 Nov 20 UTC Spring, 1937: Germany will send military instructors to assist with modernizing the Chinese army
