dc492 fall 1907 - dybeck   (May 16, 2014, 1:42 pm)
Sorry guys...

Have been off work at home and their remote access system appears to be down... Which is bad news because my dip account is on a work email address...

Sorry about the NMR... All services appear to be back in order but it might be worth copying in dybeck(at)gmail.com. Hamish - if I submit orders from that address it is still me!!

Subject: dc492 fall 1907

 

Some amazing politeness amongst the anti-English ... "no, no, you keep it.  I'll move out."
An unlucky bounce for England near Turkey.

And Germany playing the long game in Finland.
I believe I've an NMR from Turkey.  Turkey, if I'm wrong then get in touch.
So...

Germany's got two retreats:
German F Denmark can retreat to Skagerrak or Baltic Sea.German A Piedmont can retreat to Tuscany.
And:

England has two builds.Germany must remove one ... unless they retreated on unit off the board ... or they have a build if they retreated two units OTB.
Russia removes one.
Turkey builds one.
Retreats, builds, and removals due 8am BST on Saturday.

*Austrians Test New ATM (Austrian Teleportation Machine)*
*Germans Mind Control French!*
*Big Surprise! England Dies!*

Hey all,
It's getting down to the wire. Germany's up to 15 centers. And France appears to be helping out the German Overlords. Can the rest of the board stop the solo? Or will we all be eating Sauerkraut and speaking German?

Winter is easy. Only Germany has builds. We also bid farewell to the English. Thanks for playing!

Adjustments:
Austria: even
England: -1 (-lon) ELIMINATED
France: Even (-Bre, +Spa)
Germany: +3 (+1 from last year, +Lon, +Bre)
Italy: even (-spa, + disbanded F spa)
Turkey: Even

I was thinking about this deadline thing and how deadlines should be deadlines.  As an aside to this game, if you were in a future game with me and the deadline was, instead of 8pm BST on a Monday and Thursday, was 8AM on the Tuesday morning and Friday morning and enforced rigidly then how would you feel?  I'd like to try it for the next Blitz.

I think deadlines should be very rigid. debate up front, perhaps, but once set ... that's it.
To me, part of the game is knowing the deadlines. I know we all
get a little behind at times, and I've benefited from leniency as well as anyone, but a missed turn, or the realization that you have to rush to get a turn in is a lot more "realistic" than having the leniency taken advantage of.

Thanks Warren for running the game.  Probably wasn't the most
enjoyable one you've done.

Hi gang,

 

The draw, somewhat to my surprise, passes.  The game is over,
with Turkey surviving after 12 straight nmrs.

 

Congratulations to Douglas and Greg on the draw, and to those
that stuck it out for a survival.  Thanks especially to those
that submitted orders all the way through!

 

I will get things fixed up on the DC site for the WB standings.

 

Cheers,

 

Warren

DC491 End Game Proposal - untitled36   (May 10, 2014, 9:51 am)
Hey all,

A proposal is on the table for a German Solo. It requires every living player to vote yes to pass. Votes are secret, and I will only announce Pass or Fail, NOT the vote (such as 4 yes, 2 no). If the solo passes, then the scores for this game will be:

Austria: 4.4
England: 4.1
France: 4.2
Germany: 21.3
Italy: 4.7
Russia: 2 (as an eliminated player, his vote is not counted)
Turkey: 4.7

Votes due with Spring moves.

John

I'll get the turn resolved at diplomaticcorp later tonight.

Hi gang,
 
First things first, we have a draw proposed!  A two-way France/Russia draw to be precise. Please vote on this with your Spring 1907 orders.
 
Until then, on we go.  The usual suspects nmrd this turn. 
 
There are two retreats needed with the winter turn tomorrow, along with any adjustments needed. Please figure out your build/disbands on your own.... thanks.
 
Russian A Galicia can retreat to Warsaw or OTB.
English A London can retreat to Yorkshire or Wales or OTB.

Turn below, maps attached.
 
Cheers,

*Austrians Try Everything, and Fail*
*Turkey/England Try Nothing, and Succeed!*
*Life Lessons Learned from Diplomacy!*
Hey all,

     Austria flails around like a hapless jellyfish, hoping to snag a center, but with no success. Turkey puts up a great, but ultimately unneeded, defense. The bulk of the action happens in France, where Italy pillages the place with a bit of help from the Germans. 
    Belgium has only one retreat, so I moved him to Picardy.

Winter is busy this year. Everyone except England has adjustments due.

Austria: -1 (-Gre)
England: even
France: -3 (-lvp, -spa, -mar, - Bel, +disbanded unit Marseilles)
Germany: +2 (+lvp, + Bel)
Italy: +2 (+spa, +mar)
Turkey: +1 (+Gre)

Thanks!

John

Hi folks, sorry for the vanishing act.  My only internet at my acreage is through my phone, and while I could use my phone, I had no internet connection last night for some reason.  Here is the turn.
 
Austria had one retreat, Rumania to Budapest.  I took the liberty of running that Fletch, let me know if you want it OTB for some reason.
 
On to fall, due on Thursday as usual.
 
Thanks,

Hey all,

Lots of supports and cut supports this season. A few key moves succeed as well.

Got two retreats. French F Spa can go to Lyo, Wes, or OTB. Austrian F Gre can go to Alb or OTB. Get those in ASAP please! If you both mark them final, I may be able to adjudicate early.

Hi folks,
 
No orders from Germany or England, which means Munich retreats off the board, and England default disbands Barents Sea.  The rest of the adjustments are pasted below.
 
Maps attached, spring due on Monday as usual.
