Did Austria order A Rum S A Arm-Sev in S02? Trying to figure out what that yellow line is.

Also, since the idea of live commentary got a fairly tepid response, what would you guys think of me doing it delayed by a few turns - like only talk about 1901 moves after 1902 is over or something?

Yeah, that's the move Austria made.

As for delayed responses...hmmmm...I think I can get behind that. Maybe a two year difference instead of one year, although I could be fine with either. Should wait for others to weigh in though.

haha yeah that's why me (england) and italy went after France from the beginning in this game. If we play again I'd like to try one of the varients, like maybe the 1901 varient.
Can't believe I'm still here playing this same game

Italy kinda sucks! Props to Stenole for excellent tactical decisions though.

I always start typing stuff in this thread then I delete it because it inevitably gives away info I don't want to give away before game 2 is won... I mean over.

Statistically England and France are the best 2 powers actually, with Russia either third or fourth depending on how you're playing - in postal games Russia is third, in FtF and tourneys it's fourth. I've read speculation that this is because Russia effectively participates in both of the main "triangles" of the board, and thus needs multiple stable alliances, which are more difficult to cultivate in the limited time frame of FtF games. IIRC Russia flops with Turkey depending on game type, then Germany is fifth, then Austria, finally Italy, at least in terms of pure win rate.

Honestly, while the balance isn't perfect, I still believe it's close enough and skill/diplomacy will make a larger difference in the vast majority of cases.

I joined a few random games on the site since there didn't appear to be enough TL people interested for a second earlier when I was trying. The skill range on the site is tremendous - my French ally in one game is really great to talk to, tactically and strategically saavy, and thus far loyal (which is generally a good thing until there's a good reason not to be). I've also spotted at least one "famous" figure who's published articles on the game etc., but then the level runs all the way down to plants who won't even talk to their neighbors. Sadly the gems seem to be kinda rare at least until you get up into higher site rating levels, which I'm attempting to do right now. :p

Since writer has popped in and this thread is bumped, maybe I should start sending some PMs again to see if there's any interest for another game again. Playing a game with players who can all actually construct coherent sentences in their press would be neat. >.>

Well after next week or in two weeks, I won't have internet for like a month or so. I'd still be willing to play more game, although anyone who has me in their game would have to be patient for me to get on a library/neighbors computer or something.

oh shit, sorry lol, forgot to finalize. Also, I'm kind of pissed at this game right now =/ I rushed too many of my moves near the beginning putting me in a horrible position now. Despite me having more centers than Russia and Turkey, I'm probably about as equally fucked as them due to my crappy positioning.
