01 Oct 13 UTC	Spring, 1994: I hope we can all have a good, clean game. Best of luck to all!
01 Oct 13 UTC	Spring, 1994: Good luck, have fun everyone.
01 Oct 13 UTC	Spring, 1994: GG!
01 Oct 13 UTC	Spring, 1994: Ooh, I've always wanted to be Ukraine
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: Ukraine is by far the easiest country to win with...
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: Why do you say that?
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: If either Russia or Turkey is weak, you can easily jump out to a large lead early.
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: ^You mistake ease of early lead :: ease of victory. Not at all the same.
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: from the *very small sample size available, i'd say russia is easiest to win with same as classic
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: I'm pretty sure that in classic, Turkey has the highest win percentage. Playdiplomacy.com has some statistics on the subject, but they don't offer modern maps.
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: I'm pretty sure Russia has the highest win percentage in classic
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: http://www.playdiplomacy.com/stats.php?sub_page=5 It's not the end-all-be-all, but I'd say those numbers confer a fair level of statistical significance.
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: All I know is that in a classic game, the only country that does not have a decent chance of winning, is Italy. They're all mostly equal, except for Italy
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: I heard Spain was the best in classic
03 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1994: If either Russia or Turkey is weak, you can easily jump out to a large lead early.
19 Oct 13 UTC	Autumn, 1998: and now we can see why you wanted to play ukrain! Congrats, I think thats pretty much game spain, italy and france will squabble in the west/south, turkey will finish egypt; and germany and ukrain will roll over all of us, with ukrain having the option for a solo or a 2 way draw well played boys
22 Oct 13 UTC	Spring, 1999: valiant effort turkey, but the fools at the helm in spain, france and italy, the game is already over
22 Oct 13 UTC	Spring, 1999: Gotta fight the good fight
31 Oct 13 UTC	Spring, 2001: he that was so eager to be Ukraine...
31 Oct 13 UTC	Spring, 2001: just to let you all know... I stopped playing on this site a good 2 years ago, only recently have come back. In the meantime I've been playing on Vdip. Many more variants, and you run in to nmr's, cd's, and cheaters far less often. You should check it out if you haven't already.
