17 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1901: GameMaster: Please remember that negotiations before the game begins are not allowed.
17 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1901: Info: This is a choose your country game.
17 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1901: Thanks for setting this up. I have a busy day, but will save my orders.
17 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1901: Good luck and have fun :-)
19 Aug 24 UTC Autumn, 1904: Stressfull...
19 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1905: What a chaos...
21 Aug 24 UTC Autumn, 1909: I made too many mistakes in both these games...
21 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1910: Finally broke through...
I think you have been playing unpredictable, which makes guessing your moves really difficult.
21 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1911: I copy the style of a player from Webdiplomacy.com : Ghenziz.
21 Aug 24 UTC Autumn, 1911: This game is particularly funny and exciting.
I have to go to sleep. See you tomorrow.
21 Aug 24 UTC Autumn, 1911: Have a good night.
22 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1912: In truth, I prefer GvI(19) to FvA(19), FvA and GvI because there are much more possibilities than these and the (19) reequilibrate both sides.
With a target at 19, it prevent to play what I name the 'rush strategy' in which G or A try to get the 18 centers as fast as possible. They can't rush for 19 and that force them to play the game.
My only concern with GvI is that G should be forced to play Mun S Tyr in Spring 1901 because G in Pie with Ven empty and I in Tyr with Mun empty can kill the game with a piece toss.
23 Aug 24 UTC Autumn, 1913: I will never achieve 19. So I draw. But you may think you can do so (?).
23 Aug 24 UTC Autumn, 1913: GameMaster: Germany 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.
23 Aug 24 UTC Autumn, 1914: Sorry, I have not responded, I've been busy.
I do think I have a chance to win. We are pretty much deadlocked in the east, but if I can fleets into in the mid-Atlantic I have a chance.
23 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1915: I also, prefer playing to 19. It's makes the game more interesting, and unpredictable.
You are right, you can not go racing for SC's to try and get a quick win like you can with 18 SC's.
23 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1917: I have to go: restaurant with my wife. Have a good day. See you tomorrow.
23 Aug 24 UTC Spring, 1917: Enjoy your dinner. See you tomorrow.
23 Aug 24 UTC Autumn, 1917: Thank you! My wife told me to give my orders because I was not with her... But I forgot to move Kiel :-(
24 Aug 24 UTC Autumn, 1917: Whatever the final issue, it will have been a very exciting and crazy game, full of surprises.
