22 Apr 22 UTC	Spring, 2: Just fwi everybody, because I thought it was interesting, let me draw your attention to the fact that everyone used their builds to make 2 fleets and one army. thought it was cool
22 Apr 22 UTC	Spring, 2: and it is only until now- after I posted that -did I realize the build in Memphis was also a fleet, not a army
22 Apr 22 UTC	Spring, 2: Sorry to ruin the symmetry
01 May 22 UTC	Autumn, 4: GameMaster: Game was extended due to at least 1 member failing to enter orders and having an excused missed turn available. This has un-readied all orders.
01 May 22 UTC	Autumn, 4: Sorry everyone, delay was on me, my bad
09 May 22 UTC	Spring, 7: Just a heads up for everyone, I have caught covid and am very ill, it may take me longer than usual to respond to press. So anyone who wants me, try and get your messages out early
09 May 22 UTC	Spring, 7: shit, dude, hope you get better
09 May 22 UTC	Spring, 7: Thanks Greece, I will live, worst version of it I have had so far though, couldn't think straight most of the day
13 May 22 UTC	Spring, 8: Sending this message in Public so that everyone knows exactly what has been said and why. Firstly, this has been the most boring game of diplomacy I think I have ever had the misfortune to join. Some of guys really need to go away and play some gunboat. I do not think press games are your forte. The word, ignorant twats springs to mind. Secondly, some of the tactics I have witnessed this game are beyond a joke. For example, Carthage, I would love to hear what you are trying to achieve, other than speeding up your death. Same to you Persia, although you annoyed me the most, I tried to keep you alive and this is how I am repaid. So, seen as nobody can be arsed to answer my press. I will simply state in public what I want Egypt - Let us 2 way draw this, these 2 clowns deserve nothing from this game. Also, well played on your press for convincing these 2 clowns to completely Fuck themselves, you must be a good talker. Also, thankyou for actually responding to press. Persia and Carthage - I will throw a solo to Egypt before I let you get a draw out of this game now, as your complete lack of respect must be punished. Greece - I know your dead but you were actually the only reasonable person I have played with this game, I wish I had kept you alive.
13 May 22 UTC	Spring, 8: I haven't answered your press because you've been a jerk. You've been weird and demanding this whole game, and I don't wanna talk to you any more. We tried to come to deals and you never stuck to them, so there was no longer any point in talking to you. That's how you play a press game. "Your complete lack of respect must be punished", just calm down. You're playing a board game on the internet.
13 May 22 UTC	Spring, 8: What can I say, I am a great believer in punishing people for bad play. You lied to me constantly at the start, you found it funny at first, then when I got the upper hand, you sulked. Funny how that works Yes we are playing a game on the internet, well spotted. (Add round of applause). So I am now in a position where I must decide who is to be eliminated. Thankyou for making my decision that much easier. Only thing making it difficult, is Persia is even ruder than you are and part of me thinks his crimes are actually worse, at least you have an excuse to be playing silly games. He is just acting like an ignorant waste of space for no reason. So, to sum up, this game is going to end in 1 of 3 ways 1 - 2 way draw with me and Egypt 2 - Me soloing 3 - Egypt soloing Due to Cartages attitude, no draw will be accepted by me until he is eliminated and due to Persia's absolute lack of respect for me saving his ass, no draw will be accepted until he has also been eliminated. You brought this on yourselves and if I need to throw a game, to teach people how to behave properly online, then that is fine by me.
13 May 22 UTC	Spring, 8: FYI - Carthage Actually, you know what, on second thoughts Persia has annoyed me that much, if you are capable of being reasonable from this point forward. I will accept a 3 way draw with me, you and Egypt. All negotiations can be made in global chat, Egypt can be mediator and you will get a draw. What do you say?
13 May 22 UTC	Spring, 8: Oh and by the way, Ignore me and you die first
13 May 22 UTC	Spring, 8: Hello, Ghost of Sparta talking here I just saw all of the messages from 11pm Monday -> onwards. I wouldn't dignify this with a response but you, Rome, brought me of all people up (on a tangent, I'll admit) so here's me telling you to cut it out. Carthage was right... you're playing a board game on the internet. You need to chill out man. I dunno what kind of good complex you have that makes you think you have "teach people how to behave online" but anything that's happened so far is to be expected. I dunno how you possibly could've made it this far without knowing that lying, backstabbing, and messaging behind people's backs is LITERALLY THE POINT OF THIS! I mean, you and Persia both carved me up after backstabbing me and I can only say that I said "no hard feelings, GG." I'll come out and say that you were speaking and behaving exactly like this to me the entire time and it seems that you are now getting up in arms about Carthage or Persia not responding or "being grateful". So: chill out Now, as for this being a boring game and you not liking the tactics, let me remind you that you joined this game. You aren't limited to the number of games you can join, so join another one. Carthage is right, it's not unreasonable to not wanna talk to someone who's being this toxic. Don't criticize others about how they play. If you really cared about how good we were, then you'd say nothing, use their bad play to win, and hope they learn from it and get better. The only thing I can see you getting from calling us "ignorant twats" is trying to be a jerk. I'd appreciate it if you'd act a little more respectful when speaking. I don't appreciate you bringing me up only to use me as contrast to "prove how bad these guys are" especially when you were saying the same things to me in direct chat at the start of the game. I'm dead, and I'll remind you that that's because you stabbed me. While I don't think you're a terrible person for doing that (as you would have realized as well in your case if you'd have bothered to consider what game we are playing), I do dislike that you're acting like your somehow above all this.

13 May 22 UTC	Spring, 8: Yeah whatever Greece, nobody cares, your dead anyway lol And for the record, there is more than one way to skin a cat. Just as there is more than one way to play diplomacy. My style may hurt your feely wheelies, I am sorry for that. I thought I was playing with Big boys, MY BAD!

19 May 22 UTC	Autumn, 9: So are we going to let me take Cirta this turn and draw this game off, getting a little silly now don't you think?
19 May 22 UTC	Autumn, 9: You can let me have Cirta and then draw... I have voted draw already if we want to end the game now.
