| Fucking assholes in France and Russia! | |
| I set cancel immediately when there was a NMR. I left it up for three years, at which point the game had substantially progressed and it was clear that Russia was not going to cancel. | |
| Only an asshole solo that shit! | |
| I believe it's fair (and expected) to cancel when a player doesn't show up, but it's not fair for a power to take advantage of it, refuse to cancel/draw, and then only put up the draw flag once they start losing. So, I wasn't going to draw in 1906 because of the NMRs when Russia hadn't been interested in it until he started losing. At that point, I'd only draw if the board merits a draw or if there were another CD that changed the outcome from draw to win, and neither one was the case. | |
| And, frankly, I didn't get a solo because of the CDs. I grew substantially, and was clearly going to be part of any draw as a result, but could easily have been pushed back well before 18. I realize that your position in Turkey wasn't one that gave you much of a role in stopping the solo, but if you're honest, you'll conclude that the solo instead of the draw was a result of tactics between players who were submitting orders every turn. Anyway, I'm sorry that you're upset, but hopefully we'll get to play each other again sometime in a game that does a better job of meeting your expectations. |

| Fine because only you and Russian had a game. Think about it... | |
| You do realize that I set cancel, right? I'm not sure what else you'd have me do. I can't force Russia to cancel the game. The only thing I can do is to grant Russia an undeserved draw in 1906, and that's not a fair result; he didn't earn a draw. He had plenty of chances to earn it, but was unable to do so, and only asked for a draw once he had lost. I think your proper beef is with the player who refused to cancel, not with me. |
|
| No, with the player who solo that. | |
| It was your choice, be happy. I don't honor that. |
