12 Apr 16 UTC	Spring, 1999: This is the third time playing this map, and my third time playing Texas. WTF? A little variety would be nice.
13 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 1999: I've been wanting Texas as I live there now...but I can't seem to get it :'(
13 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 1999: :). Nothing against Texas, just don't want to play the same every game. 1 in a 1000 chance to play same 3 in a row.
13 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 1999: Naah it's 1% chance ;) still low though
13 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 1999: Haha wow, yeah I guess that's right. 10^3. Haha...apparently you have some destiny to fulfill
14 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 1999: Wow...both Cuba and Peru didn't make moves.
14 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 1999: Ridiculous. That is something that is frustrating about online Diplomacy; almost every game is marred by inactive players
14 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 1999: And here we are, all ready to go...but we still have to wait 7 more hours.
14 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 1999: I feel ya, Texas.
16 Apr 16 UTC	Spring, 2000: Hey heartland....up yours
16 Apr 16 UTC	Spring, 2000: Huh?
20 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 2001: I have taken over for Cuba. Give me a chance please?
20 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 2001: Oopsie.Sorry Dave,I can't do that.Sorry,Joseph.
24 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 2002: R.I.P. heartland
28 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 2003: Out of politeness could we not wait a full day for retreats and builds? It only takes 30 seconds. Let's please not save moves & forget.
28 Apr 16 UTC	Autumn, 2003: Agreed.
02 May 16 UTC	Autumn, 2004: Cali...is this out of spite? Why do you need to save Builds?
06 May 16 UTC	Autumn, 2005: So how many times have people played this map? I have joined five games of this map and received Texas all five times (a 1 in 100,000 chance if selection is random). Does this happen to anyone else or do you find you get diverse assignments?
06 May 16 UTC	Autumn, 2005: Not as many times. Did you join all recently? I have heard that the adjudicator tries to fit you into spots to balance out against which countries you have played before. So, if you sign up for a bunch at once, before the games start, you could end up with a lot of Austrias. Not sure in your situation though. I rarely get Texas. :(
06 May 16 UTC	Autumn, 2005: I have joined at different times. And in a masochistic bout of insanity I deliberately took over Texas in a sixth game from civil disorder. Smack. I have also received Austria a disproportionate number of times in the Classic map, especially with no chat games. The Ancient and Modern Europe maps I receive diverse assignments on.
