Around the World: An Excercise in Diplomacy

[Maldiem]

I think you need 37.

Also, I guess I made my stupid blunder for the game. Er... I did it on purpose to make you guys feel better. Yeah, that's it.

[thewamp]

I think you need 37.

That's correct, 37 is the magic number

I'll disband Army Sil

Retreats!
Austrian A war may as well disband, because it'll have to during adjustment anyway
Italian A kie may disband or retreat to sax; mun; ruh
Italian A par may disband or retreat to bur; gas

Adjustment - Assuming all retreats are taken
England Builds 3
Italy Removes 3
Japan Builds 1
Turkey Builds 2

Elimination!
Austria has been eliminated

I'm not giving 24 hours for the retreats, so the deadline's flexible, but hopefully, we can keep this schedule.
Retreats due Monday at 2300
Adjustments due Tuesday at 2300
Spring 1915 Orders due Thursday at 2300

[Charity]

I'll retreat to bur and ruh please

[Mael]

Nonsense, I've got a retreat, I should use it.

Retreat to Livonia.

And to save time later, I'll submit my builds order now as well.

Disband army Livonia.

[thewamp]

Adjustments!
Austria disbands A lvn (Fine Mael, we'll do it that way)
England build A edi, A lon, A liv
Italy removes A bud, F eas, A klu
Japan build A tok
Turkey build F bag, A smy

Also, Announcement
I'm playing a game called travian and it's in endgame and should end in the next couple weeks. Once this happens, I'll begin hosting a game of standard diplomacy. I will also never play travian again. It sucks your life away. But I'm on us server 4 if anyone here plays. I don't recommend it.


Also, once we finish up *this* game, I'll be trying my hand at another game of standard diplomacy. This one will be blind (you don't get to see the map and only find out about enemy units when you directly interact with them or they directly interact with you), but with spying (once a phase, you can discover either what an enemy did or who an enemy spied on that phase).

For this game you'll be required to make your own maps. Downloading jdip is really easy though.

Yeah, I played it for about a week once, never since or again. It's worse than tribal wars for destroying your life.

I'm up for the standard, standard diplomacy please wamp old fellow... and are we on hiatus?

No, not at all! No hiatuses! We're almost (sort of) finished!
Orders are still due on thursday. So get them in

This announcement was just a heads up for you all. Not a sign up or anything. I just wanted to let all of you know first.

[Moody the Wise]

If you thought this game was epic ... try the Imperial Variant. If I can drum up the interest for it, I want to give it a run, and you guys all get a special invitation ('cause I know you're troopers)!
