Agreed.  I see that Jorge is unhappy with my decision to support Illinois, but my suspicions of his motives appear to have been on target - I suspect if I had actually blocked Illinois' moves into my centers, we'd see Turkey playing be the unstoppable solo artist.  Props for the attempt though.

My apologies if it appears my actions are cutting the game short for anyone.  However I did try to make deals before deciding on this course.  Yeah, they weren't particularly palatable to most.  But they offered a way out of this, and by having my offers refused I couldn't see that anyone was really willing to risk their own position to help stop Illinois.


I am wrong about these things as often if not more than I'm right.  But thats the call I made.  Again, good game to all and it has been thoroughly enjoyable throughout.


Thanks to Mike for GMing as well.

Aye, gg to Matt. 

For what it's worth, I thought it was great to play a game of such epic scale.

Fellow world warriors,


I'm not happy that Andrew (USA) decided to make the solo so easy for Matt (Illinois), but no one deserves it more than Matt.  And he will have it by the end of the year, no matter  what any of us do.  So if you have some goal you want to accomplish that takes two turns, or just can't stand the idea of voting for a solo, vote No.  But if you want to accept the inevitable and move on to your next Dip game, vote Yes.

For what it's worth, that's what I'm doing.
