08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1901: Best of luck to you, good sir
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1901: hey, sorry i was away for a moment. back now.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1901: No problem. This is actually my first VDip game, so is this variant more of a live game type format?
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Depends, and doesn't matter. I started two. One played live and this can play slow. Your choice. good luck to you.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1901: We can do this one live. I can make sure I enter at least every 5 minutes
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1901: I will try as well, just finishing the other and it becomes easier.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1902: you have good moves
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1902: Thank you. This is kinda more like chess than anything else. Also, I'm a pretty experienced Webdip player. I just moved to VDip today.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1903: your moves keep throwing me right off. I cannot predict them at all. i think my new opening of the TUN and retreat is also maybe a bad idea.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1903: Also, I was looking at your stats and you have a pretty impressive win record. Also, what does your profile mean by "quality" wins?
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1903: i am trying to count the ones that are in real games. a lot of Ws come from 1v1s and other small variants/cded games, etc.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1903: Also, I looked at this variant before either of your games were filled and thought Germany had a huge advantage in this game. An opening to Tyrolia isn't bad for Germany to deal with, but can cripple Italy, since the Italian can only get 3 SC's in 1901 if they move an army through Venice in the spring. They should really have this be the F Rome version
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1903: i might have lost count
08 Mar 12 UTC	Autumn, 1903: yah, i don't know. there have been a lot of analyses on these things and people seem to agree it is even. there have been big tournaments and things. many argue that blocking tyrolia is bad because you lose the chance at 3 builds
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1904: Eh, I view it as so long as the other guy doesn't get 5 builds either, its alright for me to only get 5. Thinking in relative terms instead of absolute
08 Mar 12 UTC	Spring, 1905: Sorry to do this to you now but i need to get to sleep. we'll finish this when we can. goodnight
08 Mar 12 UTC	there you go, good game.
08 Mar 12 UTC	Good game, my friend. And goodnight to you as well.
