Room for a newbie gunboat player?
pjmansfield99 (100 D)
07 Nov 15 UTC
Hi BFG, I would suggest you get a few games more experience first. Whilst I would by no means claim to be an expert, everyone on this list so far has played fairly extensively. Catch you on the next one.
BFG (100 D)
07 Nov 15 UTC
I've played extensively full comms. But not ventured into gunboat. Over at play dip they don't do gunboat tournaments. So when you say extensively, are you referring gunboat diplomacy or diplomacy in general?

BFG - Gunboat is a different animal, especially with respect to endgame and stopping solos, so probably best for you to try a few gunboat games before entering a tourney with 5 at once.

It was - but was a frustrating series of games for e I have to say. Still scratching my head at how the overall series turned out so poorly for me - can anyone pin point anything specific that I'm screwing up? My last few months have probably seen my worst results ever in Webdip, and I'm trying to figure out if its something that's changed in my game or just a really shitty run of bad luck.
