WK's Open - Standard Diplo.

[Whiteknight]

Put it this way: At least you make a map.Finally, someone gets it. I promise that I will make the map directly after golf today *cough* *cough* *cough* ;)

Don't worry, I know it will *cough*, I forsee little homework.

[Maegtelluma]

Golf! Fun.

True...two of the games i'm in right now haven't had a map for about a month or more.

[Battlecruiser]

Yes, come on whiteknight. It isn't like you to delay so much. But I understand if this has something to do with school. End of year projects and tests and stuff, right?

[Maegtelluma]

Yeah i have finals next-next monday and tuesday. So please don't make any orders due until wednesday, which should be for two terms from now...lol.... Thanks.

[Whiteknight]

Okay, I had little homework today. I didn't watch (well... I wasn't able to pay attention to as it played) SG-SG1 and I worked for a long time, so you damn well better be happy. >.<

Yes, end of school is not helping me much. I have homework and a lot of things going on, so I'm not able to take the time out to do one thing in particular and spend all the time on it for that while. Oh well, soon, soon. I'll try to keep up now.

WK Diplomacy: Fall 1903
Orders Due:Thursday, June 10, 2004
Description:Russia continually begins to be battered by the countries around her. She lucks out due to the new conflict between Turkey and Austria. Speaking of which, Turkey and Austria butt heads with eachother. Austria vaguely sees this coming, but Turkey knows and defends himself while expanding. England is backstabbed by Germany and her continual conflict with France decreases her border. Italy defends himself against two attackers. Kudos go to France, Germany, and Turkey for expanding their borders while defending themselves against attackers.

Turnly Boner Award: Goes to… England, for leaving open vulnerable SC centers and giving up a home SC center. Be careful, England, for backstabbers and people who will try to grab at whatever you leave open.

[Maegtelluma]

Yay Map!

My armies travel via life rafts in the ocean :p. That's what i get for deciding my orders laaate at night lol.

[Whiteknight]

Oh damn, that's what I forgot to do. I was going to add you to the turnly boner for doing that, but meh.

So, you have a week, use it wisely and get your orders in on TIME. I'm giving you a week, so please do.

[Maegtelluma]

By the way...it would have been nice to let me know on all the other turns that i've said A Liv - (insert territory here) that that wasn't a valid order :p. Luckily it made no difference this turn.

By the way....I blame you for my fleets becoming armies.

[Battlecruiser]

Why did you say I was going to get the turnly boner award? You made me worried.

[Whiteknight]

Why did you say I was going to get the turnly boner award? You made me worried.
Well, it was probably because you were getting so impatient. :p

Worry, my little puppet, worry!

...

Don't worry, you've actually been really good for a newbie to this. Already, 2 of the great Diplo powers are pretty much out. I was surprised at that.

[BlackHawk]

Special Report: TRAITOROUS TURKEY

In recent events it seems Turkey has spun 180 degrees, attacking it’s strongest ally for the last 4 years. When asked to comment on this sudden change of events Sultan BH stated “I have attacked Austria because one needs to lead by example. The other countries are convinced that the Arch-duke will just lead them to victory, however that is far from the truth, in the end he will turn against them and pit the Germans and French against one another, while he provokes each side, whispering sweet nothings into their ears as they do his dirty work for him.

“Both nations are idly standing by as Austria expands his boundries, first Russia, now Italy, who’s next? Certainly not Germany, he’s his ally! Certainly not France, he’s his ally too! Certainly not Turkey, he’s also his ally! Certainly not Britian, he’s to far away! If it could only be true, of course Germany is favoured to outlive the other countries, why? Because he is but Austria’s puppet, doing whatever the master says. ‘Fetch me Warsaw, you don’t need it. Your master must grow strong to protect you!’

“I hope this attack will smack some sense into the others, for we share a common enemy, one who is quite near the final goal -- European domination.”

We will have to wait to see if the Sultan’s words are heard, or if they echo on into the night, ignored or forgotten, because the Master says his words are venom and not to be trusted.

[OboeGuru]

I hate to be nitpicky, but for a fleet in Bulgaria, a coast MUST be defined. Might want to look into that, WhiteyMcKnight. ;)

Anyways, anyone in favor of me making a map for 1600 tomorrow? :D

OMFG. I missed that! I think I just missed that because I was lazy and it didn't say NC and SC. Well, if I go back and change it, it will cost me a lot of time and we already know what coast BH is on.

BH, make sure you do it next time so that I don't have to do it again.

BTW, we are keeping the map because it took me this long to do it and I sure as hell am not editing it again, because that one little move would throw off a lot. So, just remember to always define NC or SC for next time, and we will call it a deal, alrighty?

[Subjukator]

Reply to Turkey's boring speech that Austrian leader didn't bother to read (but did anywayz): :smirk:

We also BSed each other at the same time and we are evenly matched. Le sigh...

Why don't you just follow the rules and fix the map? I "sure as hell am not" going to abide by any "deal."

Moving on, now for the GM's mistakes:

Here was Italy's order: A Rom S F Nap

Here was my order: A Ven S France A Tus-Rom

Here was France's orders: Army Tus to Rom

Give the SC to France.

Read on, my little assumer.

F Nap S A Rom

That gives Italy 2 and give France 2. That means a stalemate and bouncing, so it's all good.

Why don't you just follow the rules and fix the map? I "sure as hell am not" going to abide by any "deal."
As for the map, I've just now realized that moving him back one won't affect anything else, so it would be easy for me. The map will be replaced momentarily.

Okay, here is the new map. I've updated the top post too.

http://www.kupatrix.com/upload/uploads/WK-Diplo-Map-Fall-1904-2.gif

[Subjukator]

The wonders of editing...

EDIT: So much drama lol

[OboeGuru]

Le sigh. It's supposed to be East Coast, not North Coast. :p
(I've just got to make your life difficult :D)
I've made a fancy-pants base map with all the proper abbreviations and coasts if you want me to use it in the future. ;) http://diplomacy.oboeguru.net/Standard/pre-movement.gif

No one ever said if they'd like me to make a map for 1600... :(

[Battlecruiser]

I think Subjukator thought that there was no opposing army in Rom, so I could take it but that is not true because Italy's army Rom is discolored. It is a different shade of green than the rest of the units. Could you change that? I wasn't sure if that was a unit or not.

[Subjukator]

Why don't you make the map yourself?

[Battlecruiser]

Why don't you make the map yourself?
Who, me?

[Whiteknight]

Le sigh. It's supposed to be East Coast, not North Coast. :p

Err... I'm sure BH will be quite happy to. Just go and PM him.

And I am not changing that, from now on, East and North will both be known as north!

And why couldn't you have given me that map eariler. Would have helped me a lot. Which brings me to something I forgot.

From now on, whenever you are giving an order for a unit in the water, you must give the full name of that ocean, sea, etc. This is here because the first three letters can get mixed up with a lot of other things. So, just write out the water name because we are not using Oboe's uber elite map.

[Battlecruiser]

Do you plan to change army rome to the right color?

[Whiteknight]

Do you plan to change army rome to the right color?
Oh, come on. It's a few shades brown. I'll fix it up in the next map, but you should know it's a unit. Cmon, it's a dark green with a touch of brown, you should've known. Oh well, I'll fixer it up next map.

[Battlecruiser]

Fine you lazy horse riding, bum/scapegoat.

[OboeGuru]

Am I going to have to separate you two? ;)

[Battlecruiser]

Am I going to have to separate you two? ;)
Who, him and his horse? If that is what you meant, that is impossible.

[Whiteknight]

But Moooommeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!!!! He started it! :p

[Battlecruiser]

But Moooommeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!!!! He started it! :p
Ohhh, haha, he was talking about us. Why are you blaming me, SCAPEGOAT?

[BlackHawk]

Sorry, but I do not believe you must designate which coast you are moving into when in Bulgaria. I am currently inquiring about it at Redscape, who in my opinion are very knowledgable in this and have answered my previous questions very well. If you are interested here is the link to the thread (http://www.redscape.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=130161#130161).

If they say it's not, then I would like the change un-made, because frankly why would you have to designate it if it were not shown on the map (Spain and StP is shown, why would Bul be left out?).

[OboeGuru]

Because:
1] There is no designated canal like with Kiel that makes cross-coast travel possible. The coasts are divided by Constantinople.
2] The 2000 Revision of the Avalon Hill Rulebook has within it images of Bulgaria with "East Coast" and "South Coast" clearly labelled.
http://images.oboeguru.net/bulgaria.png

[BlackHawk]

Heh, touche, they also said it depends on your house rules but usually if you move a fleet into it you must designate a coast. However I think that should have been on the map earlier, or at least stated at some point...

[Maegtelluma]

It should have been on the map, and technically it's invalid, but the GM usually overlooks small mistakes like this, at least in my petty experience.

[Whiteknight]

Well, I've been pretty tough on such things like this. It is better to have some consequences so that you will remember it again and won't do it again. So the decision stays.

Hm, did I update the map? I think I did, I'll go check.

I'll make sure to add it to all future maps, and any other times I host a game, I will make sure I scour it before for coast things like this.

Okay, I did post it. I don't think I've gotten any orders yet, just reminding you that they are due thursday.

I've thought about it, and I would like it if orders could be in by tuesday. Although the due date does not change, I believe that if I get orders in by tuesday, I will be able to get my map up, thus moving things along faster.

[Subjukator]

That's tommorow!!!!

*sob* (as in cry...)

[Whiteknight]

I said I'd like them in by then to speed this up, I never said they were absolutely due tomorrow (today).

[BlackHawk]

But...today's monday...?

Btw, your year is wrong, the latest map is supposed to be for Fall 1904 not 1903, therefore making the next orders Spring 1905 ;).

[Whiteknight]

But...today's monday...?

Says the person who skipped 100 years in his own game. ;)

Bah, everyones a critic.

I have one set of orders so far, I suppose it will have to be thursday, like I said before, unless people actually get them in.

[Maegtelluma]

My orders are in.

[Battlecruiser]

Orders PMed.

[Maegtelluma]

Get your orders in, people :-p

[TheGreatBrain]

Russian Orders:

A StP Support A Mos
A Mos Support A StP

[Subjukator]

HAH! I sent orders to myself but not to you GM. But now I did :)

[Battlecruiser]

Is this game dead or something?

[Maegtelluma]

I think WK is just being lazy.

"Lord? Sir? Evil Lord, sir? It's the peasants. They're back. They're demanding another map."

"Bah, let them do homework!"

/me begins to throw homework at the disgruntled peasants.

[/...that]

Jeez, you guys act like school is out for you. :mad:

Seriously, one week left full of final exams, and then another week full of achievment exams. It's getting quite busy. It's possible I might be able to do it tomorrow, but I'll se. I don't even know if I've gotten everyone's orders. Well, I have enough time before getting back to homework (stupid very long city trip and movie and other things) to check.

EDIT: Yeah, I've got them all. My map should be up this week, but who knows. Just be prepared.

[Battlecruiser]

Well, now that you delayed it long enough, can you make the orders due for sometime during or after the 18th?

[Whiteknight]

Oh come on, it's been 3 days. Get over it. :p

Yeah, I'll make it for over the 18th then when I get my map up.

[Battlecruiser]

Oh come on, it's been 3 days. Get over it. :p
Haha, I just needed an excuse for delaying my orders.

[BlackHawk]

WK, do you want me to do the map for you again? Sorry...it's just taking so long ;).

[Whiteknight]

Be patient. Exams right now, I'm studying. The weekend will be when it is up. Besides, your maps are full enough of mistakes already. :p

JK!

Just be patient. I'm in the MIDDLE of my major exams.

[Battlecruiser]

Ok, that is good enough for me. That way I have time to submit my orders in too.

My 2000th post. Yes!

[Subjukator]

No Battlecruiser, you have to do it like this:

2000th Post!! 2000th Post!!

[Maegtelluma]

Congrats, BC....

/me looks at his petty post count :(

[BlackHawk]

Be patient. Exams right now, I'm studying. The weekend will be when it is up.

*Ahem*

So that map...?

[Whiteknight]

"You'll working through christmas!"

"But what about Tiny Tim?"

"Bah! Let Tiny Tim and his fiddle want!"

-Family Guy

Bah, it's still the weekend. There is still time. Maybe after I'm done with my dad, I'll get it up. Hmm... I think I have an hour now, I could get it done. Urg... I hate exams.

Proclomation:

As soon as achievment exams are finished by the end of next week, every map will be up on time. Please bear with me until then.

[Battlecruiser]

Its ok. Today is father's day. Your off the hook. For now.

[Maegtelluma]

the end of next week? geez...i was out at the beginning of this week

[Whiteknight]

Well, I just finished the map. However, I've just realized that I'm faced with a Britain that has not told me which 2 of his units would disband. I am going to go ask OG or someone like that what happens in this situation.

EDIT: Map on hold until OG or someone of the like gets on.

[BlackHawk]

Just disband two of his units that are farthest away from his SC's or those that are farthest away from his Home SC's (if they are all on SC's).

[Maegtelluma]

BH=right. Two farthest non-sc-occupying units, then farthest sc occupying unit, then a home country non-sc unit, then a home country sc unit. (I think)

EDIT: Where's the map?

[Maegtelluma]

Sorry for the double post but...

WHERE IS THE MAP?

Come on WK, is this going to be a third turn in a row for the "turnly boner award?"

[Whiteknight]

Well, I would have had it up a while ago if SOMEONE hadn't forgotten about disbanding some units. That was the only time I had time. Yesterday (when exams finished), I had people over for a long time. Today, I was planning to go to the city to watch the Eskimo game, but that idea is off. I have time now, I'm getting it in, I'm done BH's orders. From now on, I'll be able to make it quite quickly. Thanks for bearing with me through exams.

*Finishing map*

[Subjukator]

Oh good, I didn't miss anything :) If you can, make due date next weekend. If you dont know why I've been absent, check the Offline Thread in the Online Roleplaying forum.

Norweigan Sea and Baltic Sea are BANISHED by proclomation of the Supreme Ruler of the Universe.
WK Diplomacy: Spring 1904

Orders Due: Saturday (By request of Subjukator)

Description: Well, Italy finally seems to be falling into oblivion because of Austria. Rum gains incredible interest from both Turkey and Austria, causing a clash between two powers. However, Turkey holds its ground, although Austria quietly tiptoes around the north. Britain’s heavy losses from last round hinder Britain even more. France appears to be in good positions to strike at several countries, beware next round. Germany goes unnoticed, shifting its units towards its borders. Russia holds its ground for now, but does not go much of anywhere. Britain, Italy, and Russia will have a hard time making it in the upcoming rounds.

Turnly Boner Award: Goes to… ForeignKid (Britain) for forgetting to post the disbands and delaying the map even more, receiving the Supreme Ruler of the Universe’s extreme anger. :p

Proclamation: In conjunction with the other GMs, builds, disbands, and retreats must be posted before the map is up.

Alrighty, I'm finally done exams, and shall now be able to post maps on a regular basis, as I did before. I will return to my RPs too. Thank you all for bearing with me (although few of you did. :p).

Question: Please give me your input on what you think the ideal wait time is for the maps.

[Maegtelluma]

Two or Three days. And there are no retreats...

Saturday? Geez. It doesn't take that long to write out orders...

[BlackHawk]

Err, why do me and Sub have units in Sev, it should still be mine...

[Whiteknight]

Two or Three days. And there are no retreats...

Saturday? Geez. It doesn't take that long to write out orders...
Yes, but if you bother to read up, Subjukator requested it. I would have done it for 3 days if he hadn't.

[Whiteknight]

Err, why do me and Sub have units in Sev, it should still be mine...
Oops, sorry, I forgot to include a bounce in the orders and I went right from that. Fixed!

[BlackHawk]

Shouldn't Germany have an army in Silesia?

England has 3 SC's and 4 units...

Also since Sub did not designate which coast he wants Serbia to go to, shouldn't it bounce and my unit not bounce and get in? This is because earlier I had not designated a coast and therefore my unit failed to get in, so shouldn't his unit fail, therefore allowing my unit to go in?

[Whiteknight]

This is because earlier I had not designated a coast and therefore my unit failed to get in, so shouldn't his unit fail, therefore allowing my unit to go in? What the hell? I must have put up the wrong map or something, because my orignal psd has everything correct... Well, I'll go upload it again then, hopefully that will fix it. o_O

BTW, Sub has an army which does not have to designate coats.

Here is the RIGHT map, I uploaded the wrong one, I guess. I'll update the other post, too.

Oh...right, forgot...lol.

[Battlecruiser]

Ok, guys. I am very sorry. You may have noticed I haven't been posting lately. It is because my dad has pneumonia and he is in the hospital. My mom is with him, so I had to stay at my friends house for 3 days. My friends house has some computer problem so he has to reformat and stuff so I couldn't go online. Luckily my dad is feeling good now and he is coming home tomorrow. I will be able to do everything tomorrow (Most probably unless something happens to my dad). Sorry if I am causing any delays and stuff.

By the way, I am typing this from my computer because my mom dropped me off here for 30 minutes.

You could have atleast made it gray so we couldn't see your orders.

[Maegtelluma]

he's been doing that for a while now, lol

[Maegtelluma]

WK, do you have my orders? I'm not sure if i've sent them yet.

[Whiteknight]

WK, do you have my orders? I'm not sure if i've sent them yet. I have a whopping two orders, sent in from Maegtelluma and TheGreatBrain. Is it just me or are all the orders due in tomorrow?

Heh, get them in, I'll be proceeding with our without you. :p

[BlackHawk]

I have a whopping two orders, sent in from Maegtelluma and TheGreatBrain. Is it just me or are all the orders due in tomorrow?

Heh, get them in, I'll be proceeding with our without you. :p

I thought you were just asking for retreats / adjustments. I'll send my orders in now though. Sorry 'bout that.

[Battlecruiser]

Orders PMed.

[Whiteknight]

Due to the fact that I was in the city today and just got back and it is so late, and the fact that I have to get in two other orders, and the fact that I my hands don't want to cooperate with me and I'm having to concentrate for them to type (I have no clue why, sleep should fix :)), and that I'm missing orders from Subjukator and ForeignKid, the due date has been extended to tomorrow.

Get them in!

[BlackHawk]

Foreign Kid has left WB, so there's going to be no orders from him.

[Battlecruiser]

Foreign Kid has left WB, so there's going to be no orders from him.
Why did he leave? Do we need another replacement for Britain?

[OboeGuru]

Leave Britain to die. There's little to no chance that it can be saved.

[Whiteknight]

Sub still doesn't have orders in.... Well, depending on what I feel like, I might wait for him another day or not, we shall see.

I suppose I'll try to figure out what to do with Britain. I might take over it so that it isn't easy to take over or I might just hold it all. Depends on what I feel like again, but what desicion I make now will be the same all the way through.

[TheGreatBrain]

You could have atleast made it gray so we couldn't see your orders.I don't see the point. But back in more civilized days, you didn't have to color your orders at all. So much for those days, huh? :)

[Battlecruiser]

I don't see the point. But back in more civilized days, you didn't have to color your orders at all. So much for those days, huh? :)
Just informing you and there were no "civilized days". That is like the saying "Back in the good ole days".

[Maegtelluma]

I'd say let england die at this point, doesn't look like he has a chance....

[TheGreatBrain]

Just informing you and there were no "civilized days". That is like the saying "Back in the good ole days".I was just kidding, dude.

[Whiteknight]

Well, so much for Sub... Still no orders. I'll put up the map soon, then.

[Subjukator]

ahh no you won't. ;) I'll be PMing orders today cause i couldnt over the weekend due to independence day.

and why does Apu in Italy have an army? Even though Rom was dislodged doesnt mean there is an army in Apu yet.

EDIT: My orders have been PMed

[Whiteknight]

Glad you could join us, I'll get the map up today then.

[Battlecruiser]

You got my orders right? I think I had 2 revisions so use the lastest one.

[Maegtelluma]

I wanna check too, just in case its been a turn since I sent in those prelims.

[Whiteknight]

I've got everyones and I'm almost done the map now.

[Whiteknight]

Ahoy hoy. Time to head for the lake, but I'm putting the map up so that you guys can think while I'm away.
WK Diplomacy: Fall 1904

Orders Due: Ajustments due Tuesday.

Description: The titans of the southeast clash over the seemingly important country of Rumania. Despite a good effort put forth by Turkey, Austria manages to beat him and out push further into Turkey territory. Surprisingly, Britain manages to hold on to all of his current SC’s and faces neither disbands nor retreats. France is in a supporting mood today. He also readjusts his units for an impending attack on the now silent Britain. Germany and Austria rap things up with Italy and Russia, taking them down to one SC a piece. Which of the 3 will win when they all turn? Germany had better watch his back.

[Whiteknight]

*COUGH*

I'm not dead, you know, and I've recieved a whopping Zero orders. Let's get them in, shall we?

[Maegtelluma]

We shall.


PM-ing them now.

[Battlecruiser]

Turnly Boner Award: Goes to… France, for missing out on the chance to take Lpl and finish Wales off. No fair. I got blocked from liverpool 2 times, so I thought up a different strategy, and the same turn I do, foreignkid doesn't make any orders.

What do you mean by adjustments?

[Maegtelluma]

Foreignkid is gone, isn't he?

Adjustments are retreats, disbands, builds, etc.

[Battlecruiser]

Foreignkid is gone, isn't he?

Adjustments are retreats, disbands, builds, etc.
Yeah he left or something.

Anything but moves and stuff?

[Subjukator]

A Vienna
A Trieste

^^ Is this fine or do I need more?

[Whiteknight]

Perfect, Sub.

I'm giving everyone else until I get my orders in for all other diplos. So that's either the end of today or tomorrow morning.

[Battlecruiser]

I don't have to do anything right? Like, I don't need to make any adjustments. Or do I?

Also what about BlackHawk? He can't make any orders for 6 weeks, right? And I am leaving in 3 days for camp and I won't have any access for the computers, for 3 weeks, which is August 5th. I don't know about BlackHawk, but I need a replacement. Whiteknight, is it possible you can be my replacement? If you are, I will PM you all the stuff, you need to know to be my replacement.

[Whiteknight]

@$!@%

Forgot about BH. Now you.

Okay, everyone be on the lookout for 2 possible replacements, perhaps BB will be able to fill in for one. I'll get the map up sometime today.

Austria, Russia, Italy, and Germany are the ones who need to send things.

[Subjukator]

Send what? I've already sent my adjustments

[Whiteknight]

Yes, I know, but Russia and Italy still need to. I'll be making the map after I get back from my haircut, so if they are not in, then it goes by the rulebook.

[SunTzu]

I could take over for Battlecrusier if you want. (Or BH, really.)

[TheGreatBrain]

Russian Adjustments:

A StP Retreat Fin

[Maegtelluma]

Sheesus. So two players gone? SunTzu can sub, I'm sure Machiavelli would do it too, he's been all over the place :)

[Battlecruiser]

I don't care. Whiteknight or Suntzu, I can have any. Though you will have to deal with me if you lose. Just kidding, though you have to try your hardest.

[LordAhriman]

I'd be glad to step in because the rest of the games here won't have new maps for oh say THE REST OF MY NATURAL LIFE

[Cygnus]

Sub? Someone said they needed me to sub? ;)

Anyways I'll let someone else sub before me but if you still need someone I'm your man!

[Subjukator]

So France isn't going to participate anymore? Figures... :p

[Battlecruiser]

Haha, well today is my last day here. Tell me who is playing for me, till I return. It will probably be only 2 or 3 turns.

[Whiteknight]

Okay, Battlecruiser has explicitly requested that I take over for him. I suppose this is for the best anyways as he will be back soon enough. However, BH will not be. So whoever takes over for BH stays.

And the replacement for BH is.... Lord Ahriman, since he responded first.

Map will be up quite shortly, the orders will be due next sunday as I will be away for a week. Unless everyone gets them in today or tomorrow.

Well, since Russia and Italy didn't say what to disband, I followed the rulebook and disbanded the units furthest from their home SC. Also, Sub, you forgot that you can only build in home SCs. Therefore, only one of your builds made it.

Orders are due: Either on Sunday of next week or tomorrow, depending on when you want to see your map. I will be away for a week starting sunday, so if you get them in tomorrow or early Sunday morning, I will get the map up.

[Battlecruiser]

I will post orders soon.

[Maegtelluma]

My orders are in, but I still need that question about units supporting each other to hold answered :).

[Subjukator]

EDIT: Got rid of original map pic that was in this post

My home SC's for the original map correspond to the builds I made for A Vienna, A Trieste.

And you need to go over it again because you made A Trieste fail but still made an army there and not one in Vienna

[Whiteknight]

Oooh, much sorry. I mistakenly thought you meant Ven. Ah well, fixing up.

BC, what question? I can't find it.

Okay, I fixed it up Sub. Ugh, I'm woozy or lightheaded for some reason.

[Subjukator]

Damn't Italy just go off and die already!

:)

[OboeGuru]

What the hell? It still hasn't been taken over?

...

Geez, you guys suck. ;)

[Battlecruiser]

GO FRANCE!!

AArgghh i got to go my computer time is over. see you guys on the 5thh.

[Whiteknight]

Cygnus, since Lord Ahriman has missed the deadline and you were second in line, you are taking over for Turkey.

[Whiteknight]

Okay, well, since new players are always preferred, Dark_Soul is taking over Turkey for BH. Wish him luck and don't be too hard on the newbie. ;)

I'm out for the day soon, so I hope to have orders today or tomorrow.

[Dark_Soul74]

By orders of Senor Whitey, I'm Turkey, the other other white meat.

Bulgaria's Fleet -> Serbia
Greece's Army Supports Bulgaria's Fleet

Black Sea's Fleet -> Rumania
Sevastpool's Army Supports Black Sea's Fleet

Everything else holds, I guess.


ph34r teh n00b :)

[Maegtelluma]

Hmm..you should either whiteize them or PM them so that subby won't see :)

[Dark_Soul74]

I don't even know what I did. :)

[OboeGuru]

#e4e4e4, smarty. :p

[Dark_Soul74]

Pffft. Like I'm going to do that? I'm a newb, so let me stick to being one!

[Cygnus]

Good luck Dark_Soul! :D

Orders Due: Monday, August 2nd

Description:England is decimated, but still survives. Italy and Russia hold in by a strand. Austria plays quite defensive.

http://www.kupatrix.com/upload/uploads/WK-Diplo-Map-spring-1905.gif

No adjustments, so orders due tuesday.

Question: Would someone be able to help Dark_Soul out with this?

[LordAhriman]

Cygnus, since Lord Ahriman has missed the deadline and you were second in line, you are taking over for Turkey.I most certainly did not - I, and my 'sent mail' folder say so.

Also, if one NMR meant getting kicked out, I doubt we'd have a single game running - but whatever, your game, your call.

[Whiteknight]

I most certainly did not - I, and my 'sent mail' folder say so.

Also, if one NMR meant getting kicked out, I doubt we'd have a single game running - but whatever, your game, your call.
Oh, sorry Lord Ahriman, I must have missed it... =\

Besides, Dark_Soul has not played diplo at all yet, so I thought that it would be fair if he took it. You are already a good diplo player.

[Subjukator]

Heh, sorry Battlecruiser, I thought BlackHawk was still playing as Turkey that's why I was playing it all safe. I'll hit you up next turn k?

Question: Would someone be able to help Dark_Soul out with this?

Oh, I would be very happy to help him with orders.

:p

[Maegtelluma]

What the heck, a replacement comes in and the first thing to happen is for me to get stabbed? That's a load x.x

[Whiteknight]

Hey, you pretty much invited it. I mean, look at that! It was worth a chance. Sorry, maeg, but I'm playing for BC now.

BTW, I'm only temporary, BC is coming back some time.

Sub, you better honour it -_-

[OboeGuru]

If you'd rather have someone not in the game to help out, I'll volunteer.

[Subjukator]

let whiteknight be France and let's leave it at that.

[OboeGuru]

I mean for helping DS. Sorry, forgot to quote the earlier post.

Whiteknight, you should have made sure he understood everything and has orders filled out properly.

Kinda late now, but know that for the future. This last turn is messed up because of that.

[Maegtelluma]

Hey, you pretty much invited it. I mean, look at that! It was worth a chance. Sorry, maeg, but I'm playing for BC now.

BTW, I'm only temporary, BC is coming back some time.

Sub, you better honour it -_-
Which is exactly why you should have kept going the way he was...x.x

[OboeGuru]

Which is exactly why you should have kept going the way he was...x.x
Yeah... You should make up a completely new strategy when TEMPORARILY taking over a country...

*sigh* I think the Turnly Boner Award should go to Whiteknight.

[Whiteknight]

Hey, I was just following what BC gave to me. You'd be surprised what he said, okay? How do you guys know he wasn't planning that, I mean, he's not that much of a newb to know that he could backstab like that and get away with it. I followed his strategy to a T, so bah on you whiners.

OboeGuru, I would appreciate it if you would help Dark_Soul, as you are not in the game. We can't help what happened last round, so stop complaining about that too. -_-

[Subjukator]

You know OboeGuru is just goin to feed Dark Soul orders since Oboe isn't exactly very chummy with me :(

[Maegtelluma]

Hey, I was just following what BC gave to me. You'd be surprised what he said, okay? How do you guys know he wasn't planning that, I mean, he's not that much of a newb to know that he could backstab like that and get away with it. I followed his strategy to a T, so bah on you whiners.

OboeGuru, I would appreciate it if you would help Dark_Soul, as you are not in the game. We can't help what happened last round, so stop complaining about that too. -_-
So if that was his master plan why didn't he do it when he was here? "I'm gonna kill him, but i dont know if i can do it so i'm going to wait until someone takes over, does my dirty work, then i'll come back."

X.x

I've pmed Dark_Soul about this with some suggestions. We need to know what coast the fleet in Bulgaria is on, however.

And Subjukator, I hate you :p

[Whiteknight]

Maeg, you have had your first experience with backstabbing. Have fun! ;)

Okay, see you guys sunday or monday evening. I cleaned out my pm box, too.

[SunTzu]

Maeg should have known he was being stabbed when he built the army in Paris. It serves no other purpose than to stab Germany. Actually, it is sloppy unit placement. The army should have been built in Mar to appear to be used against Italy, while giving the same effect to the stab against Germany.

But there is no point in argueing about the stab, that is what this game is about. The opportunity was there so it had to be taken.

[Maegtelluma]

Heh, I wish. Flashback to my first game....

Me: Hey! What are you doing with all of those armies moving towards Russia?
Him: I'm protecting you from Turkey :)
Me: Oh. Well....uh...thanks then.

*stab*

*scream*

[OboeGuru]

Hey, I was just following what BC gave to me. You'd be surprised what he said, okay? How do you guys know he wasn't planning that, I mean, he's not that much of a newb to know that he could backstab like that and get away with it. I followed his strategy to a T, so bah on you whiners.

OboeGuru, I would appreciate it if you would help Dark_Soul, as you are not in the game. We can't help what happened last round, so stop complaining about that too. -_-
Oh, he told you to do that? Nevermind, then. ;)

And complaining's all I've got, I'm the one that pretty much got raped early on.
I'm still rather surprised I'm not dead yet. :p

- - - - -

I'd venture that the fleet is on the south coast, but a past order review shou'd reveal the truth.

[Battlecruiser]

Why are you guys getting so pissed at Whiteknight. And no, I didn't make whiteknight attack Germany because I didn't want to do it. Actually it was always a part of my plan. I was just waiting for something to happen first so that my attack wouldn't fail. I haven't understood what is the big deal about the backstab. I will deal it later when I get back.

[Whiteknight]

Okay, all orders are in except for Dark_Soul. So, DS, get them in! Ask OboeGuru for help, though.

[Subjukator]

If DS hasn't sent in his orders by the weekend, plz just go on w/o him. Thank you!

[Whiteknight]

If DS hasn't sent in his orders by the weekend, plz just go on w/o him. Thank you!
I suppose I will. Has anyone seen him around at all, though?

[OboeGuru]

He hasn't picked up the PM I sent him yet.

[Maegtelluma]

Nor me, apparently...

[LordAhriman]

I'd be happy to write Turkish orders (cough coughity cough cough)

[Battlecruiser]

Ok my orders are pmed. Yes, I am back.

[Subjukator]

I'd be happy to write Turkish orders (cough coughity cough cough)

If DS doesn't show up for this turn, we will be forced to go on without him for this turn. You can take over for DS on the next turn cause it would be kinda dumb for you to come in now when I've already sent in my orders with a strategy directed towards DS.

You know how it is :)

[Whiteknight]

He sent the orders in, I'm making the map right now.

[Subjukator]

Just get it up by today!!!! yayayayayayayayayayayayayaya

[Whiteknight]

Just get it up by today!!!! yayayayayayayayayayayayayaya
Eager to start your destruction of the Turkey empire, eh? Heh, don't worry, it will be up by 8 pm tonight (-7GMT).

[Subjukator]

Its 8PM!!! AGGGGGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!

I have a diplo map addiction!

[Whiteknight]

Damn, so it is. Sorry, I've been playing Harvest Moon for Gamecube. =\

/me puts off Harvest Moon for a bit

Okay, working on it.

EDIT: Okay, done it.
WK Diplomacy: Fall 1905 – “Bouncy bouncy!”

Builds Due: Monday, August 9th at 9:00pm (-7GMT)

Description: Many things happen, yet not much moves. France is unable to obtain any SCs of Germany. Germany makes smart moves, reacting quickly to the attack from France and managing to hold off Austria at the same time. Austria fails to gain any Russian or Austrian territory, but is slowly tearing away at Turkey. Budapest seems to be the untouchable lifeblood that prevents Turkey from gaining any ground. Russia, Italy, and Britain ALL hang in there, just by a thread.

Turnly Boner Award: Goes to… France, for failing to remember to support to somewhere and giving up the easy chance to seize a German SC.

Note to France: Supporting a unit is not the same as just supporting the unit. You didn't have problems with this in the past, I'm just reminding you because of this round.


Note to Everyone: A blue line does not separate Norway and Sweden. I repeat, a blue line does NOT separate Norway and Sweden. If it looks like anything remotely blue to you, you are colourblind and should get help immediately. >.>

EDIT: Forgot that Britain had a disband, and since Britain isn't here, I decree that A Yor disbands. Changed map will be up shortly.

EDIT2: Changed map is up.

[Subjukator]

Austria fails to gain any Russian or Austrian territory

lmao...

[OboeGuru]

I still say that line is quite blatantly blue, WK... :smirk:

How did you manage to pull that off?

[Subjukator]

F Trieste

[Cygnus]

Note to Everyone: A blue line does not separate Norway and Sweden. I repeat, a blue line does NOT separate Norway and Sweden. If it looks like anything remotely blue to you, you are colourblind and should get help immediately. >.>Uhh... good sir. That line is blue. :o

[Battlecruiser]

What did I do wrong? I don't get it.

[Maegtelluma]

A Munich

[LordAhriman]

http://img57.exs.cx/img57/1251/norswe.jpg

As the picture clearly demonstrates, as the editor filled Norway in Spring 1905 with blue using Photoshop with 'anti-alias' on, a darker blue was created close to the border than in the rest of Sweden. Thus, when the larger part of sweden was filled with gray, the edge remained the darker shade of blue.

http://img55.exs.cx/img55/2004/norswe2.jpg

I can see it now: Warboards CSI.

[Maegtelluma]

Good work, Sherlock, I must know, how do you do it? :)

And don't any of you even think of coming to either of those places! :p

[Dark_Soul74]

I don't really understand why my first move fell through, still. Wouldn't it have normally worked, had you actually taught me enough to know what I was really doing, or had you switched it up so that my land units were attacking and sea supporting? And besides, it's not like I even saw how to support correctly. That's how it showed it in the tutorial you showed me, which wasn't even close to indepth, since it never got to the point.

Now I'm stuck in a position where I can't really go anywhere.

[/angry rant which probably isn't even your fault]

[OboeGuru]

Hey, we get to blame Whiteknight for it anyways, so have at it! ;)

[Maegtelluma]

I don't really understand why my first move fell through, still. Wouldn't it have normally worked, had you actually taught me enough to know what I was really doing, or had you switched it up so that my land units were attacking and sea supporting?

Now I'm stuck in a position where I can't really go anywhere.

[/angry rant which probably isn't even your fault]
I'm curious, did you use my suggestions and stuff? Because I don't think I messed anything up, and if I did, that's my bad, sorry. The only condition in my little plan was Bulgaria, and it ended up the way I had it anyway I think. Changing orders/checking validity is a GM policy. BlackHawk helped me out once when I made an illegal build, but it is not required for a GM to do so. The tutorial is the basics, a lot of this game is experience. If you stick with it this stuff makes worlds more sense (take it from me, I got owned my first game in real life and online :) ) and the game is more fun. If you want / need any more help, feel free to contact me, I'm all about helping :)

[Dark_Soul74]

Nonono, the one that was two turns ago(I think).

[Subjukator]

Bulgaria's Fleet -> Serbia (FAIL – fleets cannot move inland)
Greece's Army Supports Bulgaria's Fleet (cut) (FAIL – you have to say that it supports Bulgaria -> serbia)
Black Sea's Fleet -> Rumania (Bounce)
Sevastpool's Army Supports Black Sea's Fleet (FAIL – you have to say that it supports F Black Sea –> Rum)

^^ U mean these orders? The first one didnt work cause fleets (the square units) can only go on the water and coastal provinces

The second didn't work because one, fleets can't move inland so this order was invalid anyway and two, you wrote your support order wrong if you wanted A Greece to support F Bulgaria. Suppose for example that F Bulgaria was instead A Bulgaria. Then the correct way to attack Serbia with support from Greece would be like this:

A Bulgaria-Serbia
A Greece Support A Bulgaria-Serbia

This happens of course if F Bulgaria was an army, theoretically speaking of course.

The third order was fine.

The fourth order didn't work because armies can not support a fleet unit that is out on a sea. If you wanted to attack Rumania with your army in Sevastopol or your fleet in the Black Sea against Rumania with support from Sevastopol, it would be written like this:

A Sevastopol Support F Black Sea-Rumania
F Black Sea-Rumania

EDIT: I changed my build from A Trieste to F Trieste. Be sure WK you note that.

[Dark_Soul74]

Yeah, well, I'm triple-blaming Whiteknight. :smirk:

[Maegtelluma]

Subjukator, read your PM's.

[Whiteknight]

Ah yes, the map, getting it up.

[Maegtelluma]

Wait....my orders....do you have them?

I don't think you do. I'm pming them to you. Wait. Are you just doing the Winter phase, or the next spring also?

Map says builds, you have that. I should be set :)

edit: heh, that was a mouthful :p

[Whiteknight]

Calm down, I'm just doing builds. I don't need orders yet. o_O

[Maegtelluma]

Just making sure, a NMR would be really, really really bad for me here. :(

[Whiteknight]

Just making sure, a NMR would be really, really really bad for me here. :(
You posted them in the thread, it's okay. :p

A Munich, you said. Uhh... I better check if I have everyones...

[Battlecruiser]

Ok, now my builds are in.

[Subjukator]

A map perhaps WK?

[Maegtelluma]

A response to my PM perhaps? Geez. :p

[Battlecruiser]

A response to my PM perhaps? Geez. :p
I know what that means.

[Subjukator]

I just want to see the build map at least. Why in the world are we doing builds anyway? It was more exciting before the adjustment phase.

[Maegtelluma]

I know what that means.
And I apparently know what the lack of a response means. It's silent bob!!!

[Whiteknight]

Yeah, yeah, I'll get it up today, I promise. If I don't... you guys can think up a suitable punishment. :)

[Subjukator]

And I apparently know what the lack of a response means. It's silent bob!!!

I'll reply when the map is up.

[Whiteknight]

and it's half done. I have to go for now, for about an hour and a half. I finish it up when I'm back. "Today" refers to before I sleep :p.

[Whiteknight]

Aaaannd... the map is up! ^_^

[Subjukator]

My orders are in.

[Maegtelluma]

My orders are in :)

[Whiteknight]

That's two... We still need two more.

[Battlecruiser]

I still have 23 hours left.

[Whiteknight]

I should start, just in spite of your sig. :p

[Maegtelluma]

What, you think team Canda is going to win? Don't get your hopes up :p

[Whiteknight]

So far, I have the same amount of orders.

I still need orders from Dark_Soul and Battlecruiser!

[Dark_Soul74]

I sent mine in.

[Maegtelluma]

NMR France :p. How awesomely convenient would that be?

[Whiteknight]

I sent mine in.
You are still going by them? Very well, it's just that you sent them in before builds, so I didn't know whether or not.

[Maegtelluma]

Dark_Soul, want me to look over them to make sure? It looks like we might have time....And I have a proposition for you, btw.

[Dark_Soul74]

Since everyone will know anyway...

F AEG- GRE, F BUL (SC) S F AEG- GRE, F BLACK SEA - RUM, A SEV S F BLACK SEA - RUM

[Battlecruiser]

Still got 3 hours left. Yes I am the best procrastinator.

[Whiteknight]

Actually, you have 4 and a half hours left, but, as long as they are in when I get up, I'll let it slide.

[Battlecruiser]

ok Orders sent.

[Subjukator]

Something's missing here...

Well I'm beat. Anyone else know?

(cmon Whiteknight!)

[Whiteknight]

Oi, sorry, I was waiting on someone. Bah, getting map up for tomorrow.

[Battlecruiser]

Lets hope you actually do get the map up by tomorrow. Though, aren't you going to the lake?

Oh yeah, why did you change your avatar?

[Whiteknight]

I said that yesterday, fool. :P

Don't worry, it will be up today.

[Battlecruiser]

I said that yesterday, fool. :P

Don't worry, it will be up today.
No... I made the comment the same day you did.

See you all next week!

[Battlecruiser]

Which Monday? The coming one or after that?

I assume it is the coming one, but just making sure because you didn't put a date.

[Whiteknight]

The monday, one week from now (well, 1 day less than that.)

[Subjukator]

What the hell is OboeGuru doing moving his unit? haha just joking. But you should have told me ahead of time so I didn't have to waste a support move. :p

[Maegtelluma]

Battlecruiser should check his PM's.

[Whiteknight]

Orders, people, they are due tomorrow!

[Maegtelluma]

I can't send in orders until I hear back from *someone*. But if I don't hear back, he knows what is going to happen :D

[Whiteknight]

Depending on my mood Tuesday, I might NMR some people, and yes, I do take conditions. Just to let you know, Maeg. ;)

[Maegtelluma]

My orders will be in today, pretty soon :)

[Battlecruiser]

My orders are PMed.

[Maegtelluma]

And still no response? So be it :P

[Whiteknight]

I'm a lazy, lazy man, Maeg, a lazy, lazy man. :P

Dark_Soul says he is getting his in, so I'll give him until I get bored of CS and quit (So... who knows? :P)

[Maegtelluma]

Not you, Battlecruiser. Yet, truer words are rarely spoken :P

[Whiteknight]

Well, we are waiting on Sub... I decided to be kind and give him a chance to get his orders in. Since I'm leaving directly after school tomorrow, and won't be back until 8 - 10ish, I'll make the map then if he has his orders in, decide what to do if he doesn't.

[OboeGuru]

I'm somewhat disappointed you didn't mention my randomly made move in the season description. :P

[Subjukator]

Give me until like till 1:30pm today. Then I'll have my orders in.

EDIT: My orders are in. Battlecruiser, you can move A Tus-Rom now finally.

[Whiteknight]

Bah, took long enough. It's a good think I'm kindhearted (Read: Not lazy >.>) so that I waiting for you. The map will be up tomorrow, after I come home from the chiropractor (unless WoW pulls REALLY strongly. I'll try hard, though.)

[Subjukator]

mappy! get this game movin!

[Whiteknight]

mappy! get this game movin!
You could have gotten them in BEFORE WoW, then the map would have been up right away.

Consequently, I've been playing for a while and must sleep, I'll get it up tomorrow right when I get up so that I can go to do WoW without worrying about it. ^^

[Battlecruiser]

Haha, good thing I didn't download WoW, or else I would have probably gotten addicted, and not go to the soccer practices.

[Maegtelluma]

It is rather addicting :). But it's only for a week, and I almost surely won't buy the full version, so I'll be ok. I'm only level 3 anyways...heh

[Battlecruiser]

So... are we getting a map soon?


Grrr... School starts tomorrow for me.

[Maegtelluma]

WoW has him hooked, as it does me. Make the map WK! The stress test ends soon, anyway, shouldn't be a problem. Couple days at most, hopefully.

[Whiteknight]

Nooooes, not the stress test ending. ;_;

Yeah, I was in the city until late today, I had a ton of homework, and, of course, I had to get a bit of WoW in today. :P It will be up for sure when it ends, I'll see if I can get it before it ends.

[Battlecruiser]

Hmm, school started for me, and I can see what you mean by there being lots of work.

[Maegtelluma]

You guys have nothing. I've got almost 2 hours of work tonight, and this is my SECOND day of school. I can't believe it, I don't remember having this much all of last year. And since I wasn't home until 6:15, I'm going to be up forever finishing it :(

[Whiteknight]

Hmm, school started for me, and I can see what you mean by there being lots of work. I have at least an essay per day in Social, and then top that off with math homework (although the math homework is really easy).

Bad news: WoW increased to Sunday. I'll do it tomorrow, though. It's been way to long. So curse blizzards name and my school's workload to why you havn't gotten a map until then. :)

(Yes, I am working on h/w now).

EDIT: Sigh, WoW is over... map tomorrow. :(

[Subjukator]

Tomorrow?

*checks dates again*

[Battlecruiser]

Hmm...ok. I will probably get orders in on Wednesday. I probably won't be online Thurday or Friday because I am going somewhere. I might though. I will see.

[Whiteknight]

Hmm...ok. I will probably get orders in on Wednesday. I prbably won't be online Thurday or Friday because I am going somewhere. I might though. I will see.
No worries, I'm quite lax. :)

And sorry guys, I had a lot of homework to do (2 essays, notes, math, and studying for a test tomorrow). I didn't get time to do it today, but I SHOULD have time tomorrow after I get back from my eye appointment, so something like 8 pmish.

[Maegtelluma]

And Battlecruiser STILL hasn't responded to me :p

[Battlecruiser]

And Battlecruiser STILL hasn't responded to me :p
Haha, is there any point? I think it's obvious what my decision is.

[Whiteknight]

OMGOMGOMG, It's up!

WK Diplomacy: Fall 1906 – All Countries Alive and kicking

Orders Due: Builds and Disbands due Friday

Description: Despite all odds, every single country is alive and intact right now. Germany seems to win a major battle over Holland, but at the expense of giving up the Norwegian Sea and North Sea to France, which could spell trouble for Germany’s northern region in the coming year.

The Britain’s enjoy some tea and biscuits while France passes them by. Turkey gains ground on Austria by overtaking Greece, which could spell trouble for Austria. Commendable moves go out to Turkey, for making a risky shot and taking Greece.

Notice to Austria: A Greece retreated to Alb so that the game could proceed at a faster pace. If this is unacceptable and you want A Greece/Alb disbanded, then write that in your orders for the coming turn and it will amount to the same.

[Dark_Soul74]

Thanks for my country back. Thanks to WK for making me lose it in the first place...

[Aqo]

countries... Europe... yummy...

[Subjukator]

OMG! You are SO dead Italy this turn!
