Obsidian Forum Diplomacy Game 2 (OBS-2)

[Deraldin]

I believe he's reffering to Russia's vicious, backstabbing, and somewhat screwed ruler's betrayal.  Just a thought though.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

I think he was talking about the wine comment in the Press Release.

[metadigital]

I thought he was referring to the fact that Pixies didn't post again ...

Nope, the obviously crazed ruler of Russia has the dark of it. I don't know how on earth Ender managed to convince her to take two years in a row without a build, especially with an already hostile Germany and a now hostile Austria. If I'm the expert Ender claims I am, I'd love to be a beginner of his caliber. My hat is off to you, sir. That was masterful.

 

 

You sneaky bastard.

<_<

Divide and conquer ...

[Darkside]

I have 13 ranks in idiocy. :D

 

But they say idiots are the luckiest people. *crosses fingers*

 

^Yup, that's the extent of my strategy. Now you know why I hate RTSs.

[Deraldin]

German Experts Agree: Silence is unnerving.

 

In a statement released today by German Emperor Deraldin he expressed his unease over the current diplomactic blackout by the other nations of Europe. "It is my sincere hope that we can get through this turbulent time with as little bloodshed as possible on all sides of this conflict. However this goal is nigh impossible if the great leaders refuse to communicate with one another."

 

Shortly after retiring for the evening, the Emperor was heard shouting from behind closed doors. "I can see you out there ignoring me! I know you're there!" It is unknown at this time whether he was referring to the other great leaders, or just some of his servants. Either way this brings up serious questions about the Emperor's mental health.

Hey everyone, whats shakin' ?

Just a thought, everyone. You might like to keep a personal journal of what you are doing each turn, so that we can make a match report after the game ends.

 

Nothing too extreme, just a couple of bullet points, like:

• who I trust,
  
• what my gameplan is, what I want to attack, what I want to defend,
  
• alliances.
  

I can do a forensic number on the emails post mortem, but I won't know what the motivations and alliances were.

Sounds like a neat idea. Might be easier to write down who you trust if people answer your messages. " *hint, hint, wink, wink, nudge, nudge* "

Might as well try and write down next week's winning lottery numbers. ^_^

You could write it as a lottery then. "*drumroll* This week's lucky country is..."

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I convinced her with logic that I will keep between the two of us.

 

I will note that you did attempt to move in on the border between the two of you. How does that speak of your alliance with her?

 

And perhaps if plans worked out she would have gotten a build.

 

I thank you for the compliment, but I see it as an obvious way to try and point me out as a threat. Given Turkey's poor position when I inherited it, and Turkey's continued poor position, I don't think Turkey is a threat to anyone right now, save for possibly Austria, and even then, only with support.

That's some damn impressive logic. If you can come up with logic for that, you must be spock.

Umm...how exactly did I do that? I attempted to Support her into Rumania, and attempted to move to Bulgaria, moving the rest of my units in a long unsuccessful chain after that unit.

Your logic is flawed, captain.

 

And perhaps if plans worked out she would have gotten a build.

 

Such a shame. Of course, if she'd followed my plan, a build would have been guaranteed. Ah well.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Well, if you're concerned about that, I'll come out and say it: At present, the only threat you pose in this game is to me.

 

I'm willing to bet, though, that whatever arrangement you made with Russia and Italy to carve me up is nowhere near as favourable for Russia as my offer of an alliance against you was. Especially since I'll be doing my darnest to make sure that you get as many of my centres as possible. Won't be long, I imagine, before the Turks are at the gates of Vienna again.

I have no complaints with that strategy.

That's good to hear.

 

I'd still like you to elaborate on how I moved against Russia, though. That really confused me.

Not who I should trust, but who I actually trust, mistakenly or not ... "

[Deraldin]

Are people purposely ignoring my PM's? I see you there sending PM's to each other...

[EnderAndrew]

No, I am just now responding to one you sent today.

[Deraldin]

No, I am just now responding to one you sent today.

I should stop lurking and watching other people's "Currently Active In:" stats...

[EnderAndrew]

Sometimes I leave myself logged into Obsidian when I'm actually away from the PC though.

That might explain the 30 minute long stands in "Active in User Control Center/PM Center"

I think you have just raised the bar on paranoia!

 

PS I, too, leave my pc on for extended periods ...

It's not paranoia if they really are after you. :ph34r:

Which they are :ph34r:

See! He's not even in this game and he's still after me! :ph34r:
