08 Mar 19 UTC | Spring, 1901: Moderator: (Durga): please message me if you got the same country as you did in your first game |
10 Mar 19 UTC | Spring, 1901: Moderator: (Durga): Okay! We're good to start. Unpausing now. Good luck and have fun |
10 Mar 19 UTC | Spring, 1901: Best wishes for a good game, all. I'll be online later on tonight. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: Just so everyone knows openly. France was eliminated in his other tourney game and needs to solo this one to advance to the second round. Heads up. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: Hmm? How did you come by that information? |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: France told me. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: From France: "It wasn't for no reason. I like you and like talking to you, but you're by far the strongest player on the map- a stab on England helps you and I both, whereas a fight against Italy helps Turkey and I both, and Turkey is quite a bit weaker than you currently. Plus, England lives on after this stab but is no longer strong enough to pose a danger to me, and is unlikely to be particularly helpful or accommodating of you after this. I need to essentially solo this to advance, and I don't want out in the first round." |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: Russia why would you try to convince everyone with a fake message that I got eliminated and need a solo? That's just silly. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: well for those of you who talk to France often, you can evaluate for yourselves the authenticity of the above message. I assure you, it is 100% accurate. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: All up to you guys whether to believe me or Russia |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: I got this from France: "I definitely need a solo. My girlfriend has threatened to leave me if I don't dominate as this game. She claims to only be dating me because of my prowess at strategy board games, and also because of the charming elf king character I assume at role-play gaming conventions. Please help. She refused to speak/sleep with me for a month after a disappointing early elimination in a regional Catan tournament ..." As the rest of you can see, the wording and tone are exactly what you see in other messages from France. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: And this: "FYI, my elf-king name is Jhaan Presyarus. Look up my Twitter account." |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: I had forgotten how petty full press games can get |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: For the record, and so I don't get booted from the tournament for outing a player, mine was a parody. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: Moderator: (Durga): Please refrain from commenting on the other ODC games. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: you see Turkey? The mods are on to you! Watch out!! |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: Yes ... Durga, what about: Those other ODC games are whack, yo. It ain't Dip unless you down with the G37 crew. Does that count as commenting on them? Cause it's how I really feel. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: There’s nothing about Russia’s message that seems fake to me. The logic and reasoning is all quite sound. |
26 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: Turkey. that Catan elimination was meant to be just between me and you |
27 Mar 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: The Russian Federation hereby declares war on France. If you are at war with France (or wish to be at war with France), please send me your requests. Russia will be immediately returning Norway to British control, as well as Berlin to the German Chancellor. |
