same thing i was thinking, like wtf ya'll wanna draw with 6, i think some had it up at 7... Only reason i put in the last one is i couldnt keep holding italy and russia off by myself.

what was with supporting France in two centers?????? I only support held Paris as a message to Germany "help me into Spain"

I was starting to think multi in the room. Austria seemed to be the only sane one

Same thing with the draw here. Group pressure is evil. :P

And I was thinkign I was playing with noobs.... we had very good gunboaters putting up the draw.

partysane, we could have run that town, but you held me out of bulgaria :P

I wanted to draw because I was damned tired at 06. The game was moving slow, and it was just... icky.

Support holding Paris, when I needed that extra unit to fend off Austria, did nothing more than tell me that England wanted to piss me off. Why didn't I move with the units I already had, you might ask? Because that would leave me overwhelmingly open to England, something I didn't think he'd resist.

Heh it was not meant in an evil way, but had i let you in there you would have gotten Con and Ank before i could get there. And then you would have pushed me out of Sym (at least i would have done it in your place and i figured you would too). So i thought better to not let you go there in the first place. You getting down to rome was a setback but i had that corrected when the game ended.

I thought you were down, since you kept building fleets. You run the waters I would run the lands. But that hold made me think you had other plans.

It seemed like you jokers were holding hands in scandanavia and iberia and singing kumbya (sp). lol

yes that was a nice bounce of apulia, it really blew up my ability to hold that position.

Hmm.. i held spain because i didnt want any more english fleets down there. And when i finally let him in (when germany took brest) he came right at me as reward for my help. Lucky me he turned around when germany pushed him out of north sea.

Also with Apulia i had other orders entered at first (bouncing myself in neaples) but reconsidered really within the last 15 seconds.

Yeah, I was pissed Germany. You didn't support me into Spain, and kept me from Sweden :(.

and I couldn't do anything else, Italy was being a dick and support holding Spain :P

Partysane, I meant nothing evil. i was not going to take any centers, simply wanted a nice line of fleets to end the stupid game

and how on earth did you and Russia time that North Sea dislodgement that well, luck?

plus you took my Belgium :(. You worked hard to get me that!

Maybe he reads "past orders".Or he is a multi of Russia. One of these for sure.

I didn't see that in past orders, must not have seen that

and number one comes out of his man-cave to teach me. The honor!

I don't see it SD.... please bless me so I can see it

So you are not retarded only but blind also.

mine taking a screen shot and showing me? I always have a problem looking through archived moves

There was a past order to that end in S 09, i saw it aswell, but as it did not happen in A 09 i thought Vexx had not picked it up and thought it would not take place.

Also SD, no need to insult anyone, but as far as i got to know you that even might be your usual way of expressing yourself.

ah, it was the phase before that, thanks Party

and its fine Party, look at his points. He is clearly on a higher level then us

It was pure luck, actually. I only attacked North Sea because I feared you would attack me in Belgium/whatever. I didn't really want to leave Denmark; after the tricks Russia pulled there, I didn't want to give him any chances to beat the crap outta me. ;)

But, defense from someone who could screw me hard > defense from someone who'd take longer to screw me just as hard.

And I took Belgium because I thought you'd attack me soon. I was really surprised you didn't charge at me full force when I did... >.>

I kind of did, I did move to Helgoland. I decided to screw it and focus on actually getting a build :\. Annoying the hell out of you for that phase was worth it

Heh so you really did not pick up that hint SD gave you in S 09. :D

and Vexx, it couldn't have been pure luck. It was either you looked at the order log (where the order wasn't right after) or you are a multi of Russia. SD said it himself!

MODS! I DEMAND JUSTICE

I've ordered that support three or four times before he finaly took it. During springs. In autumn I was just holding it.

any reason for that thought process?

I'm sure it is a good one, some kind of trick SD learned from his vast experience at gunboast

Nah actually it makes sense to offer the support in Spring.

why not in Fall? I don't do much gunboat (only this live stuff when full press isn't an option) so I am curious

You didn't see our little struggle in Scandinavia the turn after I entered the North Sea? He supported me out so he could take Sweden. At least, that's what I thought. He's a tricky fellow, he is. ;D

Dude, trust me, I'm one lucky bastard.

FD, Split has proven time and time again that he is a really good player. He's also proven time and time again that he's an asshole like many of the rest of us (MEEEE!!!!). I'd recommend teaching yourself from his game patterns than from his forum posts.

And why are you such a prick? Do they feed you at home properly? Or you have a particular reason to be a scum?

Vexx, I am aware of that. Simply poking at the fact SD gave an either or, and since you said you didn't look at the order log the other had to me true

bo, you're ruining my sarcasm fest there!

Because if it came in fall, he wouldn't be able to take Sweden immediately after and get the build. Or something like that, it's hard to explain. >_>

its because I love you SD

I have successfully trolled this thread. Game over, yeah.

You're too loud for him, FD; Split likes the silent types. ;D

I officialy denounce my full press ways. SD was clearly proven that full press is not real Diplomacy and gunboat is the only valid game
