Hey guys. I can’t get to my computer right now, so this won’t be as fancy as all the others.
gameID=45205
You should be able to work out the password. Sorry that this is a bit of a mess, best of luck!

Are you supposed to be playing?

No? But I have to stay in the game until someone joins.

Ok, I'm sure I'm being a bit dense, but I can't seem to figure out the password. Can someone send it to me?

Sorry about that. I'm back home now, and the rest of you should have received messages.

I haven’t received the message yet, can someone send it to me please?

Had you not already joined? This message was just the password.

Round 4 takes us down to the continent of South America. Some don't think it's a continent, just a sub-continent, but I needed it to cover the world. Many people know it as the the place where the brazilian carnival goes on, but there's other stuff too. I would tell you about them, but I'm getting the impression you're here more for the diplomacy the the descriptions.

So without further ado:

Best of luck to all competitors!

Is it time to get another round fired up? Its just getting interesting!

Round 3 ended quickly, and the current scores are as follows:
1st JacobL582 4300
2nd ubercacher16 3650
3rd ScubaSteve 2400
4th Bsiper 1650
5th Swede03 1500
6th Temasek22 1133
7th Iamnobody 1033
8th AKeeFaTheHun 533

I'm gonna catch you JacobL!

Bring it on!

Shouldn't I have 3200?

1100 + 2100 = 3200?

And 2850 for Ubercacher?

1550 + 1300 = 2850?

What sort of scandal have I uncovered here?

;+>

I think it's funny that I have been on the losing end in two "let's tie for the board top" alliances. One where I stabbed, the other where my opponent stabbed.

Nothing but dirty and dishonest weasels around this site. I don't know what to tell you. It is an epidemic.

;0)

Nice pick ScubaSteve. One misclick rolled down into that mistake.
Here's the correct scoreboard:
1st JacobL582 4300
2nd ScubaSteve 3200
3rd ubercacher16 2850
4th Bsiper 1650
5th Swede03 1500
6th Temasek22 1133
7th Iamnobody 1033
8th AKeeFaTheHun 533


Oops!

A slight hickup in my path to victory.

We now visit Europe. Europe has lots of people and countries, and some pretty messy borders. Europe has a rich culture, and is probably the one most of us are most familiar with. Also, this is what the original diplomacy board draws upon.

The game shall be played on the aptly named "USA" map, and can be found here:

https://vdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=45487

The scores shall not be given after this round, as to keep up the suspense.

Best of luck to all competitors!

I'm just glad I'm not in last. It's the first time I've played on most of these maps.

Round 5 game finished.

Round 5 ends before round 4, so here are the current scores.

1st JacobL582 5600
2nd ubercacher16 4950
3rd ScubaSteve 4000
4th Bsiper 1950
5th Swede03 1700
6th Temasek22 1233
7th Iamnobody 1133
8th AKeeFaTheHun 1033


This will be the last scoreboard before the final one. There will not be a score given for the end of round 4, as to increase the tension (you could calculate it yourself if you wanted to, but lets ignore that).

Now it's time for Round 6, and we head to the continent of North America.

There's only like 4 countries in this continent, but it's the 3rd most massive and 4th most populous.

We will be playing on the "unique" map, Who Controls Amercia.

Best of luck to all competitors!

The game has now started.

Now that this is almost over, shall we do it again? Or was this a one time thing? I think maybe we should try out some new maps though, even if that means we can't do every continent as before.

I could be the GM instead of playing. I've been thinking about running a tournament here, but I was thinking about using the classic map. Or maybe just classic variation maps. Something with 7 players per board because there are more of them.

I would love to take part if there is a spot

Yeah, I would go again

Maybe we could play a bunch of 7 player maps like

1900
Balkans 1860
Canton
Some classic variation. Maybe 7 islands?
For maximum crazyness, we could also do Ankara Crescent too
I'd say colonial, but maybe not since we already have Canton. Or we could do this instead of Canton
Dark Ages
Pure?

Other contenders could be Maharajah, Spice Islands, Germany 1648, or Edwardian.

7 islands sucks.
