Masters Round 2 Game 2 EOG

I'll write an EOG here later. Thanks for the game everyone. I think it might have been my first time playing with everyone other than King Rishard and uclabb. It was pretty quick and fun. Shame I overplayed my hand and went for the solo too soon. I underestimated how quickly you guys would coordinate.

A couple questions about convoys.

1. Can one fleet convoy two units in one turn? For example, if I have armies in London and Edinburgh, can a fleet in the North Sea convoy them to Holland and Norway, or do I have to choose one?

2. Can a fleet support the army it is convoying?

Quick question about Darwin in game

If there is a player who has left a game, but still has a couple of units/supply centres, and the game is drawn by the remaining players, does the player who left get fucked by natural selection?

New Variant Series?

Is anyone interested in creating a league or tourney for the new maps? I just want to play them, but it's hard to find games that aren't anon (because I have friends on this site, I don't wanna be accused for meta).
Or we could just get a couple games going. 5 point bet, at least 1 day phases, either map. Any takers?

*I* Have the Right to Remain Silent (But Sadly I Have the Privilege to Speak)

http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2013/02/constitution.html A friend sent me this...and while I'm really not at all a fan of blogs (way of the future, I know, but they're so self-indulgent, self-aware, and slanted...almost like someone who posts on issues repeatedly in a forum...wait...) and I take issue counting our "rights" by the Bill of Rights...it did get me thinking--what "rights" that people claim to be rights are real, true rights, and which are merely privileges we allow ourselves?

SoW Needs

I have two needs for the SoW: the first is a Russian player in the intermediate game. Russia has not shown up for his takeover position. There'd nothing wrong with the spot and needs to be filled. You would have ample time to talk and get adjusted.
The other is an assistant TA for Turkey in Game 1. The current TA is doing a great job but time zone differences make last minute communication difficult. If you're interested in one or the other or have questions, PM me.

Semi-mod abilities over one game?

When I start another private game with my friends (gameID=116936), and assuming the other players are OK with this, is it possible for me to be given the abilities to pause the game to prevent NMR, and to remove a player if they want to quit?

Anyone who wagers 90% of their points on a big pot game gets nothing but respect from me, ghug.

lol, may have to have a "Suicidal Tendencies II: The Maddening" sometime, MM. :)

ava2790 (232 )

I'm still pissed that the first game of suicidal tendencies was cancelled. I was doing do well. Then I got eliminated in the restart.

I'm still poor because of that game.

Barnett, to borrow from Isaac Hayes: "Shut your mouth!" Hmmm, the background singers actually sing that line, but you get my meaning!!

The first take of ST was miserable (thank you very much, ava!), but ai would have preferred playing that game out more than watching Dunecat give away the most ridiculous solo this site has ever seen, not that I'm bitter!! ;-)

Barn3tt (41969 )
08 May 13 UTC

No worries, MM. I can dig it. :)

ava2790 (232 )
08 May 13 UTC

Oh MadMarx, I remember how bitter you were (or at least how bitter you pretended to be) when I stabbed you.

MadMarx (36299 )
08 May 13 UTC

Yeah, ava, I have not forgotten either! It wasn't that I was bitter with your stab, it was your playing style that pushed me over the edge. Your approach was to lie to every person, all the time, make up lies about what each other person was saying, lie, lie, lie. Or perhaps you just did that with me. Regardless, I prefer a more laid back / friendly game that isn't constant drama every second. I'm sure you do quite well with your approach, and I'm also confident you come by that style honestly since you are a Weasel (I got to play a few guys from Chicago at WAC Con the last time I was there, dirty rotten liars every last one of them! ;-) ), just not the sort of thing I seek out with my spare time.

MadMarx, I think he's talking to you.

MadMarx (36299 )
08 May 13 UTC

No, he's talking to Barn3tt, he's the one that brought up the topic of Suicidal Tendencies, and that's just the sort of thing that a gunboater would do, hijack a thread, asshole, maybe he's not a full press guy.

tendmote (100 )

Just make the bet the same size as the 7th ranked player's total points. Winner-take-all. You lose, you start at 0. It is ludicrous to have points that are not in play.

Barn3tt (41969 )

In a couple months, when you've accumulated 1000

Barn3tt, it's taken me over a year to get to 101.

Barn3tt (41969 )
09 May 13 UTC

Well, should you earn 1000

, it probably wouldn't be ludicrous for you to hesitate about laying it all on the line. Those points don't reset.

tendmote (100 )

Barn3tt, I'll see what I can do and get back to you on that.

ava2790 (232 )

Be careful - if you make lots of points you also stand to lose them.

VirtualBob (224 )

How can Barn3tt hijack his own thread? Isn't that sort of a reverse multi of some kind? Should we email the mods??
