You guys have done it again! Just at the time when most Diplomacy games would be looking at one or two powers starting to dominate the board, you guys are actually becoming MORE ev

Hi All,
 
Austrian army retreats from Galicia to Budapest.  I'll upload the new map later (if I remember).  Till then, practice using your powers of visualization.

Hi Players,

Here we are starting our seventh year.  Do you know that I've seen gunboat games in which someone has soloed in 1907?  I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that that isn'

Hi Players,

Well, even with most of an extra day I still didn't receive retreats from the England, so I'll have to go to the DC House Rules to determine out his two disbands.

Hi Players,

Thanks to everyone for helping me out by getting in your orders a day early.  Much appreciated!

Our lead story this year has to be the decline of the once mighty English Empire.

Hey Gumballers,

First, thanks to everyone for getting your orders in on time.  It seems as a group you're pushing it later and later, which makes me sweat a little bit, but as long as you come

Hi Gumballers,
 
I still have no orders or any other contact from our missing English king.  I believe he was last seen chasing American divorcees around the grounds of Balmoral.
 
So..

Hi Players,

Armies come (for Austria and Germany) and armies go (for Russia and England).  In fact, R and E both failed to submit adjustment orders so the DC house rules come into effect and t

Hi Players,

I regret to say that we have our first NMR of the game, as even an extra 24 hours were insufficient for our England to submit orders.

Hi Players,

It took a little while but you all got orders in before I got home so we're all good on that score.  Don't get used to it, though.  We're back on our regular schedule going fo

Hey Gumballers,

I have to say that didn't quite live up to the promise of the Spring turn.  Seems like in Spring all the attackers guessed right, and this time it was the defenders.  Natu

Go, Go, Gumball!

I have to applaud you all on another very entertaining turn.  Is it as much fun to play as it is to watch?  I hope so.

This season's highlights include:

Turkey has confirmed the auto-retreat to Armenia, which means we have zero adjustments due for this Winter and you can start working on Spring 1904.  Those orders are due by next Wednesday,

Hey Gumballers,

A lot of pushing and shoving this turn, but not much in the way of actual accomplishments.

Turkey had the most going on -- losing a fleet in the Aegean, recapturing Rumania from

Hey there, Gumballers!

Thanks to all for getting their orders in on time.  So far we're perfect with zero NMR's.  Keep it up!

Spring 1903 saw an interesting mix of daggers and dancing.

Hi Players,

So now it's year two of our little adventure.  If last year was jostling for position, this is the year that punches get exchanged.  At least, that's what happens in the east.

Hi Players,

Very interesting turn, I thought, with many of you playing for position rather than dots.  Nothing truly outrageous but interesting nonetheless, like the English player claiming MAO an
