Adjudication

Who keeps vetoing these draws??


Also, I'd like this game over before the 20th, because while you all
are celebrating JC's birthday, I'll be on the 5th night of
"Cha-noo-ka."  And we all know its bad luck to play Diplomacy while
drinking every night and gambling chocolate coins using a spinning
top.

"It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really
mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. and sometimes you
didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How
could the world go back to the way it
was when so much bad had
happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing. The shadow, even
the darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines
it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with
you - That meant something. Even if you were too small to understand
why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in
those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn't.
They kept going because they were holding onto something."
"What are we holding onto, Sam?"
"That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth fighting for."

If you ask me, there has been a recurring failure to build a consensus behind any single endgame proposal. Oh, sure, it???s easy to propose, but do you have the commitment to say, ???I do???? Well, until you all get over your commitment jitters, the war must go on!

If you play this game long enough, you???ll witness everything. For example, consider Spring 1917. Austria *triple-supports* A Bud-Tri. Dude, that guy really wants to re-take Trieste. *All three* supports are cut. Jimminy %&#^ing Cricket!!! Dude, that sucks! But wait! The move succeeds anyway. [Phew.] Because France moved unopposed into Serbia. [Nerts.]

The Austrian Front is pretty much crumbling everywhere. England seizes Sevastopol. Berlin -> Silesia -> Galicia -> Ukraine comes off without a hitch. Austrians are driven from Venice and Ionian Sea. The valiant resistance can only be waged so long before steadfast alliance overwhelms it.

Two retreats are due:
Austrian fleet Ionian Sea may retreat to Apulia, Eastern Mediterranean, or oblivion.
Austrian army Venice may retreat to Apulia, Tuscany, or oblivion.

If I could get those orders today, it???d be fabu. Then, you know, Christmas is coming soon. If you???re looking for a suitable gift for your opponents, you might try this:

I???d like to have Fall 1917 due next Tuesday. I think we can squeeze in one more season between now and the birthday party for the other JC.

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
