Okay, that game was a bit... Unusual, in various ways :D Several events somewhat harmed the game's integrity, such as DP's ragequit, Chezinu's unpredictable actions and Oatsmaster's AFK'ing. However, there are no absolute rules in Diplomacy and in fact all of these things should be just prepared for and properly dealt with by the other players. There are no modkills or bans either, just self-moderation by the players. With that in mind, none of those things can really be judged as objectively "bad".

There were also a couple of ill-timed stabs, such as mderg's stab of DP and my stab of Slam. Those were most likely both mistakes that gave away our momentums and chances of soloing in the long run. And so the game ended with a bit of a lame result that might still be better than a long stalemated battle, anyway

I'd like to ask for opinions about a second game. I'm willing to host, play, coach, whatever, depending on the circumstances. We could possibly launch another PM campaign or even host a public game with partly TL players, although that might be unfair for the non-TL players. So, opinions?

(Although I said there are no bans, you can PM me if you don't want to play with a specific player in another game. If there are 2+ such requests and there's a valid reason, I'll heavily consider limiting the access, although frankly it might not be the best thing when the potential pool of players is already quite small.)

oh, there is a version that is that way.

Non communicative, I forget the real term.

Maybe we could do that

The no-communication version is pay-to-play, though.

If my understanding is correct, here are the willing players for a second game:

Xatalos
Alakaslam
JieXiann
mderg
rsoultin
sicklucker

So only one more would be needed. Anyone interested?
