24 Nov 13 UTC	Spring, 2000: [Near-East]:Have fun all! I look forward to welcoming your citizens into the loving embrace of the Near East.
24 Nov 13 UTC	Spring, 2000: [Quebec]:hahaha that was the most backhanded wish-giving i've ever encountered can i use that elsewhere?
25 Nov 13 UTC	Spring, 2000: [Near-East]:Feel free -- after all, what's yours is mine.
03 Dec 13 UTC	Autumn, 2001: [Argentina]:Another World Diplomacy game if anyone is interested (need 4 more people) http://www.webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=130196

The time until the next phase has been extended by one phase length to give an opportunity to replace the player. Remember to finalize your orders if you don't want to wait, so the game isn't held up unnecessarily!
22 Dec 13 UTC	Autumn, 2004: [USA]:we should really get someone to replace antartica if he's that huge.
22 Dec 13 UTC	Autumn, 2004: [Quebec]:Agreed. It's rather unbalancing.
22 Dec 13 UTC	Autumn, 2004: [Oz]:let me take back australia first lol
27 Dec 13 UTC	Spring, 2005: [Near-East]:Welcome, new Frozen Antarctica! Thanks for joining.
07 Jan 14 UTC	Autumn, 2006: [Argentina]:I'm happy to join you!
10 Jan 14 UTC	Spring, 2007: [Near-East]:Gah, misorders are brutal. Whoever named Morocco and Mauritania should be shot.
11 Jan 14 UTC	Spring, 2007: [Quebec]:Did I come at a bad time?

16 Jan 14 UTC	Spring, 2008: [Ghana]:Near-East you think Mauritania and Morocco are bad enough? Try Niger and Nigeria, there's no way to distinguish them from each other apart from googling them
16 Jan 14 UTC	Spring, 2008: [Near-East]:Yeah, last time I played I was Libya... that whole continent is a nightmare.
17 Jan 14 UTC	Spring, 2008: [Ghana]:and bullshit, this is one of the first games I've played (maybe even ever have been played in the history of this mod) that a country other then Kenya in the continent had almost become as powerful as Kenya. (No offense Kenya) but Kenya naturally gets it easy in this mod, easily being able to take most of the central African Sc's and South Africa is pretty much guaranteed to fall against them.
17 Jan 14 UTC	Spring, 2008: [Kenya]:IMHO, Kenya has a slight edge in Africa, but South Africa has it the worst. Split between two continents? How is that fair?
17 Jan 14 UTC	Spring, 2008: [Near-East]:I was a part of a tourney that ended last year sometime, where everyone played 17 games at once (one as each country) -- there's a thread about it up on the forums. The general consensus is that USA, South Africa, and Pacific Russia all tend to get shafted pretty hard, while Kenya, Quebec/WC, and Argentina/Brazil all tend to do well. It's a good map, and an enjoyable one, but there are certainly some balance issues.
17 Jan 14 UTC	Spring, 2008: [Frozen-Antarctica]:I was in a game as South Africa where I controlled all of Antarctica and Africa.
17 Jan 14 UTC	Spring, 2008: [Near-East]:It's certainly doable (and congrats on the accomplishment!) but it's often very difficult -- moreso than for most other countries.
