25 Nov 17 UTC	GG, I almost thought I had it for a minute. I made a few mistakes that I think cost me the game. I should have waited to take out Russia. And I screwed up in 1904 by building 3 fleets. I meant to build 2 fleets and an army, but I must have clicked the wrong button. I was trying hard to eliminate Italy and see if nothing else if I could get it down to a three way draw, but Italy was a tough enemy and prooved just a little too resilient. Good game by everyone!
25 Nov 17 UTC	Great game, thanks. We all make mistakes, especially with button pushing, I know it!! Good job by the late alliance for a draw
25 Nov 17 UTC	Thanks for the cooperation Rancher! Good game y'all.
25 Nov 17 UTC	UAU! I got it to the end! Good work Ranger and Longstreet. Perfect timing.
25 Nov 17 UTC	Never had much of a chance after getting stonewalled in Fall '01. I tried to make myself useful to Turkey and England by attacking Germany, but I guess they were a bit impatient. Just can't get far without allies. Great game!
25 Nov 17 UTC	Hey Russia can you elaborate why attacking Germany was useful?
26 Nov 17 UTC	It wasn't useful, because it didn't work. Turkey moved a fleet to Sev, but was between me and Austria.I could defend StP, but only at the expense of any growth at all. I hoped that by attacking you, England would think me more valuable alive than dead, and if I picked up even one of your SCs, I'd be able to mount some sort of offensive. Probably just wishful thinking, but a 3 SC Russia doesn't have a lot of straws to grasp at.
