But if that's the case, you should just say so and maybe something could be worked out (or you could be talked out of it with tactical reasons). If I have no idea that it's some sentimental reason, I'll just have to assume that it's a tactical reason...

Yeah, there's room for 2 more (1 now that you signed up).

You were France in the TL 2 game, right?

See this be why I am so weird

I assume folks will just assume I am being emotional if I do something irrational

But clinging to Rumania madly might be seen as partially rational XD

hahahaha your analysis made me look like some crazy paranoid puppet of the 2 geniuses
Not that I am one, I just dodged the Italian bullet and got lucky that Germany wasn't around during the deadline of Year 1 and took advantage of it :D

I wasn't randomly paranoid about Germany. Germany wanted us to bounce Burgundy in year 1, and while I got him to attack England with me instead, he was obviously not trustworthy (credits to hapa for telling me that obvious fact :D). After that, he was pressuring me hard to make moves against England, and I contemplated the possibility that he might sit back while we fought. Later hapa came into the picture to seal the sealion.

I convinced England that we were allies after Italy sowed even more ideas that Germany can't be trusted and changed my moves to a defensive one, like how Italy urged me to. However, after thinking for more than 30 minutes (it's my first game after all and I'm a newb), 5 minutes before the deadline, I changed my moves and committed to the sealion and screwed England over really badly after deciding that Italy was being a manipulative asshole

I dodged a bullet there.

Then, as we were planing our attack on England, I realised that we could end up not getting a single build with our current moves if England defended correctly and told Germany to change them. Since he wasn't around by the deadline I told him that I'll be changing mine to ensure I get at least one build in the north. As a result, Germany's move bounced and he basically achieved nothing and I got 2 builds, all while not being hostile with him hahahahahahahahaha

As I told Germany later on, that was what made him lose so quickly. It wasn't really due to a timezone problem since the deadline was in the afternoon for Finland that day.

After England I had a choice between backstabbing Italy and Germany, and Hapa had a convincing argument for it, telling me that there was an opening before Germany got his bases. I've got 2 builds while Germany has none. With my troops near to England, it's easier for me to stab Germany instead of Italy. Moreover, it was safe since Italy was already committed in the south.

There was some drama later on due to my noobie miscalculations and lack of communications in the South but it only lasted for one turn That first year for me was so good and so bad for Germany that even when I did anti Russian and Italian moves for one turn, it still didn't cost me the game.

So it was clear that Hapa and Incognito planned well while England got screwed over by me, and Germany didn't establish trust and got careless (busy) during that deadline.

Alakaslam. I have to tell you this: If you can't even write properly so that people can understand you, you probably end up losing every game.

LOL I forgot about that. You seemed so happy about that Burgundy DMZ when you first talked to me =P

Maybe Incognito ended up doing something different, but he and I were discussing what anti-English move to suggest to you that year. I wanted you to do well, and I was actually pretty convinced that England would go and cover London based on some messages I had sent England earlier. Fortunately for all of us, he didn't =P

JieXian: I severely miscalculated with Italy. On the first day I thought we (me/Italy) were allies, while in truth he was allied with Russia, and suggested that he should move to Piedmont and threaten you from there, and apparently he used that to make you distrust me. Later on I realized that Italy's diplomacy and actions had been clearly anti-German, but it was pretty much too late at that point. He had already managed to turn you against me and committed to helping Russia instead. I should have seen it coming earlier and decided my diplomatic aims differently. Oh well.
