I can and will retreat to Ruhr.  PiT!

     I came to the conclusion that the peoples of Kiel needed to learn about the greatness of Allah.

     You just don't want to see the Sultan's mujahideen parading through the streets of St. Petersburg.

I think St. Petersburg will be harder to take than you might imagine.

     True, but still much easier than it would be for most Sultans.

Yes, that was my motivation.

Goodbye, and goodnight.

     Interestingly, your move did not really affect the odds of that happening. The goal of my plan was simply to prevent England from capturing St. Petersburg. I did not expect it to succeed, but at the same time I did not see any better way of executing it.

     Anyway, good game. If it's any consolation, I had been contemplating a stab against Russia as early as Spring 1903.

     I should have assumed that would happen & moved my units into position. Oh well, enough is enough, eh? I hate unforced draws, but I would deign to accept a draw if the alternative is my elimination.

I don't know what you're surprised about.  I should've ordered Holland-Kiel, though.

     I figured that was going to happen, but I didn't bother to do anything about that...insulting oneself is not against the TOS, right?

I'm seriously tempted to put that phrase in my sig.

     Go ahead. I have no issue with people commemorating the crazy things I say.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I accept.

     For the record, that will likely be the last game I play on this forum. My attitude towards playing just doesn't allow me to have any fun if a draw is going to just be called at any arbitrary point.
