Would This Really Work?
I've read somewhere that a really good strategy for an Anglo-French (or Franco-English, I guess) alliance is to have England occupy Brest so France cannot build fleets and then France gets support to Belgium. Has anyone tried it and is it really effective?

so sorry for all my CD's
my squat was raided by the gestapo, me and all my tenants have been in jail for 5 days

sorry again.
but you cant play diplomacy in jail
Jerkface (1626 D)

Can you describe your squat? Were you on someone else's property? Did you have indoor plumbing? That's really exciting!
whalen (373 D)

bad news... Glad you made it out.

Imagine that, a person gets 5 days in jail for sleeping in abandoned property. I would estimate it cost at least $1,500 to jail Sicarius alone, for a victim-less crime. We certainly have our priorities in the US.

"my tenants"

I never knew that you were a landlord...
dangermouse (5551 D)
08 Nov 08 UTC
Also, how can you have tenants if you're squatting? Wouldn't that imply some ownership rights for the place?

it's an old hotel called the 'tourist home' in flagstaff.
there were 10 people living there permantely (sp) and we always had about 2-8 travelers staying there from anywhere to 1 day to several weeks.
we had made massive improvements to the house, (I'm a carpenter) and our neighbor is a plumber, so we had the water on, and had a gas stove. electricity was not a priority as we found it mostly unesscessary (sp)
it was fully furnished with furniture and carpet, we had repainted the walls, and cleaned it extensivley (sp)
we ourselves had put up the no tresspassing signs, that required police to have an eviction notice in order to enter the property.
the actual owner is a slumlord who is being sued for selling fradulant properties.
we were beginning to hold community events there, such as shows and copwatch meetings, FNB meetings, as well as a comms center capable of talking to the whole world on a shortwave radio.

anyway I gotta go theres alot more I'll continue in about an hour

9 of us were arrested and held for 5 days.

"tenants" meaning basically house-mates

what do you mean - You can't play diploamcy in Jail - surely denying a man a game of diplomacy is against one's human rights - they allow me to play when I go on my little retreats.

You seem to be sending out signals relating to a sense of 'ownership', of having put a lot of care and time and effort into making something better for people to live in...

Most ironic given your contempt for those who try to achieve the same within the law. I just love the 'no trespassing' signs, whatever the logic.

I hope you are well physically and mentally but I cannot do anything other than disagree with your choices.

@Sicarius.
This time of year is a killer for me at work. I will likely participate in the leagues only for a while. Hopefully, we will meet up in the GFDT.
Sicarius (673 D)

flashy, we did put a lot of care into it. we fixed alot of it such as ceilings and floors that needed to be replaced, fresh paint, furnished the whole hotel, put in carpet, et cetra et cetra, and we lived there for 2 months, so I grew quite attatched.

sean. no I use library computers or my girlfriends comp. though the 4thCC is sending me a new laptop around the 20th

World Federation or A Concert of Nations?
Is there a worldwide trend to supernationalsim, or a trend to separatism? For all these continental unions you have a South Ossetia or an East Timor. Ireland rejected an EU Constitution and Belgium might not last another twenty years. So will we see the death of the Westphalian State or World Government in our time?

Tick and crosses on the game status
Can anyone confirm with me what the ticks and crosses means on the status against each player? I have a suspicion that it means a player has entered a move for the current round. Would this be updated or finalised? Is there a help file which confirms this?
