Smid's Diplomacy Game Thread #1

Ok...so.

Someone should replace HappyWarrior. Are Muon or Jas interested in doing so?

Sure.
Though I'd petition for a restart (!)

Don't trust him, Austria-Hungary, don't trust him!

I once shepherded a Germany-Italy-Austria alliance to victory (I believe I was Germany).  That took a lot of trust on all sides, but was worth it

That's what I tried in the game of Diplomacy I played here, to much less success (that said, I did survive longer than Austria in this game; I was still alive when the game died due to non-response!  sure, my only Army was in Moscow or something, but I was alive!)

Who shall take Berlin?

I would take over for Germany!

[ilikeverin]

Woah, it was Spring!

Okay, so I'm a bit out of habit of actually paying attention to this thread and having things actually happen in a game in this board

[ilikeverin]

The German Empire would like to notify the nations of the world that it does, indeed, play for draws!  Unless, of course, all countries would like to surrender immediately.

[ilikeverin]

Naturally, the German Empire was referring to any contingency, future or present.

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night...

We had a great flight up to Brisbane, very little turbulence and a remarkably smooth landing. The family is all well. We went to church this morning and the pastor

Pastor? Which denominations use that in English?

Oh yah, and build A Edinburgh still goes.

Most of the mainstream evangelical protestant churches use the term, I think. The denominations I've been raised in use the term fairly interchangeably with Minister. I wasn't in a baptist church this morning, but if you think of me as being a baptist, you're not too far off the mark.

I have pastors, not ministers; I'm Methodist.

I'll play as ANZAC!

This remains my favorite map from the thread. It's like a work of art.

I didn't like that one much
