Ernest Hemingway posted:“If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.” After a long, armed conflict, the major European powers had once again entered a state of uneasy peace amid worn hostility. République française reigned supreme over the continent, as the victor... right? Right? Chic Trombone, President of the French Republic, has won the game of Diplomacy through concession and is now the sole hegemon of Europe! Congrats Chic. And congratulations to everyone. This game got a little long, I know, but I thought it was a lot of fun to watch and I appreciate the time and trust you put in me as a mod. Awesome game.

It's a fun game but I think I'm out of my element here. Thanks for providing it

Confessionals Spec doc was just a chat channel in the discord. You can see it now.

i really was aiming for the draw between us but did try my hardest to position us so that if one of us had to cede it would be you ceding to me

also i did seriously consider backstabbing you at a couple points, but CHIC TROMPOLEON is a woman of her word so i didn't

apologies for anything hateful i said over the course of the game. i was very invested and the replacements did ruffle my feathers at the time. i feel like the long term decisions i made were sound, i stand by most of them. thanks so much for hosting BottleKnight, it was a pleasure playing.

I legit hosed up a critical move late in the game, so I own my loss here.

I plan on making another game someday, but will reduce the deadlines. It was a pleasure. Thanks y'all.

Yeah, Chic and I both spent hours offering a three way tie to Taste if he would offer us support in taking out Keane. He wavered on it a little too much so we never really considered that it would come about after that. I think he really didn't trust that we would honor it, even though it would have been kinda hard and unfeasible to crack the Turkey nut. Then Taste did that backstab move later against me and it was Chic's game at that point.

I'm curious though, were it to be slogged out would Max be eaten up and then the 3 remaining powers just left to themselves? Was anyone here in an absolutely objective victory situation?

Yeah, I mean he told me constantly that he would never betray someone. But then he did betray me, so I dunno.

Oh hey Pmom you were a cool partner for the time you were in the game. You helped point out some things that I hadn't thought of as a new player, and were super savvy.

Sorry Kash for doing you a bit dirty. I obviously wasn't that worked up about the Eng move but it was a useful inciting event to precipitate the FGvE conflict.Max posted:Oh hey Pmom you were a cool partner for the time you were in the game.

You and Somber were both really cool it was great for the time I was in the game~ Jonathan Fisk posted:Have three enemies surrounding you, but hell, you'll be in control of your own destiny! You created those enemies by aligning yourself with Russia!

i was genuine about seeing a russia/turkey stab as the only winning move for either of them v0v

I "aligned" by having a DMZ and you telling anyone who would listen it was an alliance Tbf I think I tried to make a three way alliance at one point too so I do hold some responsibility

Jonathan Fisk posted:You also knowingly suggested I was more allied than I was for personal benefit i mean we could argue semantics but i wasn't 'convinced' of anything about you by pin, neither was the rest of the olive garden. it was pretty clear you were 'working in the spirit of mutual understanding and cooperation' with russia.

the problem is that this game can't be a hugbox or literally nothing happens.

Taste and I weren't allies, oh no. We were LOVERS. That's right. I AM WITH TASTE'S CHILD!
