You've missed the boat on this one, Omnipotent Zultar has long been established as Supreme Ruler for life at WebDiplomacy.

We shall see just how long his "rule for life" will last...

I fear that the threat of "harsh consequences" carries little weight with the hardened souls who endured several years of brainbomb's sense of humour. Once you have stared into the abyss the most evil machinations of mortal men are but trifles.

We survived Putin. We can survive this.

PUTIN! *as shouted by John Green, recoiling in shocked horror at the appearance of Putin from behind his chalkboard*

Which Putin?

Real OG forum posters know which Putin I’m talking about.

I am to this day convinced that the player known as Putin was not, in fact, Vladimir Putin.

However Xi jinxing I have to applaud how you knocked off the top of the forum power structure silently while leaving all of the mods, admins, and rules in place! Excellent stealth move!

Where is SYnapse?

He would have saved us from this tyranny.

Tyranny ??? Really Dipbro Jamiet99uk ??? Let me assure you that this Xi Jinping scallywag is a mere dilletante at the Tyranny caper when compared to the velvet gloved, iron fisted, Purdey wielding, knitting kit & castrating knife equipped yet Adorable Fire Breathing MemSahib Her Serene Imperiousness Indoors lying on a sofa eating cakes.

Hoorah, I'm having a very good New Year's Eve, with the bonus of a face to face Diplomacy game tomorrow, the Russell G Memorial Diplomacy Tournament.
Russell was a top chap, enthusiastic consumer of wines & was one of a group of about 8-10 Diplomacy game players in those halcyon days, decades ago when we played Diplomacy as a board game using kerosine lamps at night before electricity was widespread to dwellings.
Manos & Juris haven't replied to many invitation messages, but the hard core four, George the silver wolf, John, out no~nonsense Australian of German ethicity, his dear old dad served das U boats in WW2 & survived, then emigrated to Sunny Australia, Darren, well he's a proper scallywag & myself, free from the loving attention of my Adorable Fire Breathing MemSahib Her Serene Imperiousness Indoors lying on a sofa eating cakes.
We're going to have a quick game first where Russell has, postumously Italy ( Russell was buried Catholic style) & we 3 take turns for him, stab everyone else & Russell wins (postumously) with 21/22 scs.
Then it'll be four players & all out War in following games.

Russell G Memorial Diplomacy Tournament.. Darren was a mysterious no show, but John bought Manos along so we had a cracker of a day playing Diplomacy. We played a series of four player games picking one country each and having three random nuetral countries & a few where one player randomly gets England and the other players get two countries each, there's a standard pairing.which we played once, then we had randomly drawn pairs for two games.
All quick "friendly' games. We do need extra, new players... We've agreed to have games at Easter and next New Year's Day. Maybe​ Xi JenPing will send us a couple of his spies in Australia to make seven players ???

nope

What could possibly go wrong DearDipDictator Xi Jinping if a few if your chaps played a few friendly games of Diplomacy at Easter with comrades George, Manos, John and myself ? Worried they might seek political asylum ? Or we might turn them ?

Quarantine restrictions to prevent pandemic spread of Xi Jinping's propaganda going viral on the interwebs unfortunately will cause an indefinite postponement of Xi Jinping's coup d'etat dans la Forum Belle Decorum
