"since you are basing your assertion simply on the number of immediate neighbors a country has and only that, "

Therein lies the flaw in your logic. I was asserting it based on the number of neighbors within a gunboat scenario. By your way of thinking, we may as well include not only all press types but every game ever invented and say the big blind is at the same risk in Poker as Russia is in Gunboat because he has upwards of 9 opponents all gunning for his blind money at a minimum at the start of the hand.

My two cents : nothing against Partysane, but I would prefer that we not start a game with players that know up front they will need a weeklong pause less than a week into the game.

Draug, Germany has FIVE bordering enemies. If Germany is playing with monkeys who somehow manage to enter orders to all attack Germany while simultaneously rubbing feces in their hair and masturbating, then by your standards Germany is the most vulnerable country on the board in gunboat. Am I correct in this logic?

Where does Germany have 5? Russia, Austria, France, maybe England (debatable, but I won't argue it), but not Italy. Italy has to go through Austrian territory or French territory to get around Switzerland and get to Germany.

Oh. When you post messages too quickly you get that obnoxious message. I like to see how many times I can copy and paste it before my message goes through. Can usually get 3 on a computer, but it's much harder on a phone.

Draug, why are you still arguing this? If you suck at gunboat as you say, and that's no surprise if you use this kind of logic to determine what you're going to do, take advice, don't try to shut down one of the best gunboaters around.
