Sorry folks - between unusual amounts of work and record snowfall in
Dallas (leading to closures) I'm way behind, and will be that way for
the remainder of the weekend. Winter Adjustments will be due Monday
evening, 1700 EST. Be sure to have all your adjustments in!

To the tune of 59th Street Bridge Song -

Slow down, you move too fast
Forgot to write, the deadline's past
and they're - kicking down your back door
you're losing dots, and feelin' stu-pid!
NM-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

Hello sharp knife, how'd you get there
In my back from out of no-where
guess I should have turned in moves
doo da doo doo, feelin' stu-pid!
NMR-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

I've got no blocks to move, no promises to keep
I'm backstabbed and bleeding and lost all my fleets
let-the-g-m-re-place-me-there's-no-chance-for-me
all is hopeless, I'm feelin' stu-pid

da da da, da da-da-da-da da da da - NMR-R-R-R-R. Da da da da da da da
da da - NMR-R-R-R....

To the tune of 59th Street Bridge Song -

Slow down, you move too fast
Forgot to write, the deadline's past
and they're - kicking down your back door
you're losing dots, and feelin' stu-pid!
NM-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

Hello sharp knife, how'd you get there
In my back from out of no-where
guess I should have turned in moves
doo da doo doo, feelin' stu-pid!
NMR-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

I've got no blocks to move, no promises to keep
I'm backstabbed and bleeding and lost all my fleets
let-the-g-m-re-place-me-there's-no-chance-for-me
all is hopeless, I'm feelin' stu-pid

da da da, da da-da-da-da da da da - NMR-R-R-R-R. Da da da da da da da
da da - NMR-R-R-R....

To the tune of 59th Street Bridge Song -

Slow down, you move too fast
Forgot to write, the deadline's past
and they're - kicking down your back door
you're losing dots, and feelin' stu-pid!
NM-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

Hello sharp knife, how'd you get there
In my back from out of no-where
guess I should have turned in moves
doo da doo doo, feelin' stu-pid!
NMR-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

I've got no blocks to move, no promises to keep
I'm backstabbed and bleeding and lost all my fleets
let-the-g-m-re-place-me-there's-no-chance-for-me
all is hopeless, I'm feelin' stu-pid

da da da, da da-da-da-da da da da - NMR-R-R-R-R. Da da da da da da da
da da - NMR-R-R-R....

To the tune of 59th Street Bridge Song -

Slow down, you move too fast
Forgot to write, the deadline's past
and they're - kicking down your back door
you're losing dots, and feelin' stu-pid!
NM-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

Hello sharp knife, how'd you get there
In my back from out of no-where
guess I should have turned in moves
doo da doo doo, feelin' stu-pid!
NMR-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

I've got no blocks to move, no promises to keep
I'm backstabbed and bleeding and lost all my fleets
let-the-g-m-re-place-me-there's-no-chance-for-me
all is hopeless, I'm feelin' stu-pid

da da da, da da-da-da-da da da da - NMR-R-R-R-R. Da da da da da da da
da da - NMR-R-R-R....

A dot, I'd rather gain a dot
Maybe a neutral that's here and gone
My forces get bounced all around
Who'd give the world
Its saddest sound,

I'd rather have a solo than a draw.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.

I'd rather take the dots, and gain some more
Yes I would.
If I only could,

To the tune of 59th Street Bridge Song -

Slow down, you move too fast
Forgot to write, the deadline's past
and they're - kicking down your back door
you're losing dots, and feelin' stu-pid!
NM-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

Hello sharp knife, how'd you get there
In my back from out of no-where
guess I should have turned in moves
doo da doo doo, feelin' stu-pid!
NMR-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

I've got no blocks to move, no promises to keep
I'm backstabbed and bleeding and lost all my fleets
let-the-g-m-re-place-me-there's-no-chance-for-me
all is hopeless, I'm feelin' stu-pid

da da da, da da-da-da-da da da da - NMR-R-R-R-R. Da da da da da da da
da da - NMR-R-R-R....

OK, to the tune of El Condor Paso.....

I'd rather submit orders by email.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.
I'd rather moves worked than they fail.
Yes I would.
If I only could,
I surely would.

CHORUS
A dot, I'd rather gain a dot
Maybe a neutral that's here and gone
My forces get bounced all around
Who'd give the world
Its saddest sound,
Its saddest sound?.... the nmr

I'd rather have a solo than a draw.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.

I'd rather take the dots, and gain some more
Yes I would.
If I only could,
I surely would.

[quote:7ce7b43e48]Welcome back to the Balkans, as we witness the first (and thus far,
only) contested move of the game - Greece and Italy exchange harsh
words over the future ownership of Palermo, and both shell the
rebellious city mercilessly before withdrawing their fleets. All
other moves succeed exactly as ordered. Which leaves us with a
pleasantly retreat-less autumn, so we can move straight away into the
Winter adjustments. Mike has the biggest present waiting in his
stocking this Christmas, as the sole player to net three builds in
the
first year. All others brought home two, save the Ottomans, who have
one - but repositioned his forces admirably to compensate.

Thanks to all who have been CCing me on player negotiations - from
those that I have been able to read, I think there were a few
pleasant
surprises in these results for some players, who expected a much less
favorable outcome.

PLAYERS:

ITALY: Adam Levy
AUSTRIA-HUNGARY: Allen York
SERBIA: Garry Bledsoe
GREECE: Nigel Phillips
ROMANIA: Mike Sims
BULGARIA: Ross Webb
OTTOMAN EMPIRE: Gregory Bim-Merle

NEXT DEADLINE: Monday, 25 January 2010, 1700 EST. As is my custom,
if I have all Winter Adjustments in and marked as final before 1700
EST tomorrow (Friday, 22nd January 2010) then I will adjudicate the
winter adjustments and you can have the weekend to negotiate for the
Spring. Otherwise the deadline remains Monday for the Winter.

Prelims are most heartily encouraged, as is press, and CCing the GM
on
player
negotiations (kept in confidence, used for playtest analysis only).
Speaking of press - we have some!

Anonymous Press:

...Who knew that the Serbs had a Fleet? Let alone one worthy of
sailing the Adriatic? Oh wait, a dingy doesn't count...

...Since when have the Ottomans EVER left Greece alone? Hello? Trojan

pleasantly retreat-less autumn, so we can move straight away into the
Winter adjustments. Mike has the biggest present waiting in his
stocking this Christmas, as the sole player to net three builds in
the
first year. All others brought home two, save the Ottomans, who have
one - but repositioned his forces admirably to compensate.

Thanks to all who have been CCing me on player negotiations - from
those that I have been able to read, I think there were a few
pleasant
surprises in these results for some players, who expected a much less
favorable outcome.

PLAYERS:

ITALY: Adam Levy
AUSTRIA-HUNGARY: Allen York
SERBIA: Garry Bledsoe
GREECE: Nigel Phillips
ROMANIA: Mike Sims
BULGARIA: Ross Webb
OTTOMAN EMPIRE: Gregory Bim-Merle

NEXT DEADLINE: Monday, 25 January 2010, 1700 EST. As is my custom,
if I have all Winter Adjustments in and marked as final before 1700
EST tomorrow (Friday, 22nd January 2010) then I will adjudicate the
winter adjustments and you can have the weekend to negotiate for the
Spring. Otherwise the deadline remains Monday for the Winter.

Prelims are most heartily encouraged, as is press, and CCing the GM
on
player
negotiations (kept in confidence, used for playtest analysis only).
Speaking of press - we have some!

Anonymous Press:

...Who knew that the Serbs had a Fleet? Let alone one worthy of
sailing the Adriatic? Oh wait, a dingy doesn't count...

...Since when have the Ottomans EVER left Greece alone? Hello? Trojan
War? Cyprus invasion?

words over the future ownership of Palermo, and both shell the
rebellious city mercilessly before withdrawing their fleets. All
other moves succeed exactly as ordered. Which leaves us with a
pleasantly retreat-less autumn, so we can move straight away into the
Winter adjustments. Mike has the biggest present waiting in his
stocking this Christmas, as the sole player to net three builds in the
first year. All others brought home two, save the Ottomans, who have
one - but repositioned his forces admirably to compensate.

Thanks to all who have been CCing me on player negotiations - from
those that I have been able to read, I think there were a few pleasant
surprises in these results for some players, who expected a much less
favorable outcome.

PLAYERS:

ITALY: Adam Levy
AUSTRIA-HUNGARY: Allen York
SERBIA: Garry Bledsoe
GREECE: Nigel Phillips
ROMANIA: Mike Sims
BULGARIA: Ross Webb
OTTOMAN EMPIRE: Gregory Bim-Merle

NEXT DEADLINE: Monday, 25 January 2010, 1700 EST. As is my custom,
if I have all Winter Adjustments in and marked as final before 1700
EST tomorrow (Friday, 22nd January 2010) then I will adjudicate the
winter adjustments and you can have the weekend to negotiate for the
Spring. Otherwise the deadline remains Monday for the Winter.

Prelims are most heartily encouraged, as is press, and CCing the GM on
player
negotiations (kept in confidence, used for playtest analysis only).
Speaking of press - we have some!

Anonymous Press:

...Who knew that the Serbs had a Fleet? Let alone one worthy of
sailing the Adriatic? Oh wait, a dingy doesn't count...

...Since when have the Ottomans EVER left Greece alone? Hello? Trojan
War? Cyprus invasion?
