16 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: GameMaster: Please remember that negotiations before the game begins are not allowed.
16 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Hopefully, the NMR and unrated settings will make people more likely to join this game
16 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: I hope so too
17 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: ...oh wait this is public message

Well seeing 50 people speaking in one chatroom will be interesting
17 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: (Game creator here:) Ideally, people treat it as a gunboat game, with the public chatroom only for last-minute alliances and bluffs. That's my line of thought.
17 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Alright cool, I have barely any experience with gunboat games but I'll do my best!
17 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: One idea--getting enough players for a public press Divided States game is going to be pretty hard. If you're specifically looking for a many-player public press game, maybe we could consider it with the "A Modern Europe" map?
17 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Those are also great variants, but I'm in a few "Europa Renovatio" and "A Modern Europe" games already. Any idea why these fill up faster than "Divided States" games?
17 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: It’s just hard bc there are so many ppl needed and only so many ppl in this community. There are 2 active right now so maybe once one of those ends, we might get more luck with ppl joining
18 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: @Game Creator - I doubt that people will actually only use this chatroom for last-minute alliances. I suspect there will be messages along the lines of "4 corners?" or "North-South Carolliance?" with everyone else scrambling to make alliances in response.
18 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: I'm in one EU4 game and we're trying to draw early since a major player asked for it. If it happens I'll direct them here
18 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Also @GM have you considered the new alliance of all the new states?
18 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Well, I appreciate the feedback. The chaos of scrambling to make alliances is what I am going for, but I'm also willing to remake the game without press altogether, if you think that'll bring more people in. Also many thanks to whomever can direct people here.
18 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Nah I wouldn't join a pure gunboat, i honestly never understood them since the game is literally called "diplomacy"
18 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Same here. I always prefer the enhanced chaos of public press only.
18 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Secret alliances really aren't much fun to be honestly. Like it's not like we don't know which member are apart of NATO
23 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: The game is steadily gaining players. I would request an extension from the mods, it would be really great if this game actually got going.
23 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: We got a week but yeah big games normally need a few of those extends. Can take up to a month to get 50 players
23 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Roger that
23 Apr 22 UTC Spring, 2021: Wild
