WebDip FTF Cont
- Autumn, 1911, Finished| Spring, 1905: Interesting! European games usually end at the end of '07, apparently. I hadn't realised we'd done just that. | |
| Spring, 1905: I keep looking at this game and going "this is probably a draw". ..... |
|
| Spring, 1905: This is a good example of how different a FTF game is (with short deadlines, and time limited) to an online game (long time for negotiation and analysis, infinite time scope). Much of the analysis during the evening is different from the analysis now. | |
| Spring, 1905: Also, I've had less beer. I guess I have the resources to address that.... | |
| Spring, 1905: I'll probably let the clock run down on this phase, as long as that's ok with everyone. Work is very busy right now - the deadline that was supposed to be on the 11th is now on the 18th. I don't mind playing under pressure, though - it better models the FTF :) |
|
| Autumn, 1905: Do you guys mind if we extend this phase by one day? I will not be around tomorrow and I don't have time to negotiate now. | |
| Autumn, 1905: I don't have a problem with an extension or brief pause- but not having the time is a good model for FTF :) | |
| Autumn, 1905: I've voted pause in case you want it. | |
| Autumn, 1905: Paused here. Also out on the piss tomorrow lol | |
| Autumn, 1905: Paused. Similarly busy. | |
| Autumn, 1905: *voted pause | |
| Autumn, 1905: My unpause vote is also in. | |
| Autumn, 1905: I'll unpause, but also WFO with only 4 hours left. | |
| Autumn, 1905: (and apologies, I have quite a weird week IRL) | |
| Autumn, 1905: You there, Check_mate? | |
| Autumn, 1905: oh my gosh so sorry guys, every time I checked in I saw this game on pause, I didn't realise you were holding things up for me. Give me a couple of hours and moves will be in. | |
| Spring, 1908: Somebody should really grab Albania. | |
| Spring, 1908: Maybe I will nip round there...... | |
| Autumn, 1908: Eliminated the day after my birthday, ahhh such is life. Gg guys, both halves :) | |
| Autumn, 1908: Hope you had a great birthday! Thanks for joining us for this, it's great to be able to continue this and see how it goes :) |
|
| Autumn, 1908: Not being the first eliminated was an achievement :D | |
| Autumn, 1908: Being part of the fourway draw even! As nice of a game that this is, it's an entirely different game than the one in the Artillery Arms! | |
| Spring, 1909: Guys, do you mind extending this phase by one day? I have an exam tomorrow, and it's the one I've been dreading and am terrible at so I want to focus entirely on it. This game is at a pretty important stage so I would like to be able to have time to negotiate. | |
| Spring, 1909: And agreed, TM - I think this game ended at an appropriate point in the AA for FTF, and you well deserved that draw, Check_Mate. Thanks for agreeing to carry this on with us - this was more an experiment in how we view the board differently online to FTF and how the result changes. The 'official' and accepted ending to this game was and still is a four way between us :) | |
| Spring, 1909: No problem with extending the phase. | |
| Spring, 1909: Thanks for playing again Check_mate - it was so nice of everyone to come to London to play. I agree with the others about the official result being a four way. I'm fine with extending the phase, capt. Good luck with your exam! |
|
| Spring, 1909: ***t-t-time extension**** (I set it to two days, 12 hours) |
|
| Spring, 1909: I'd do press. But with these phases, fuck it, I'm going to bed. | |
| Spring, 1909: Are we going to do another ftf? | |
| Autumn, 1909: I hope so! Not sure when I'll next make it to Europe, but I'll let everyone know. Of course, you guys can always meet without me. Or there's Manorcon coming up! |
|
| Autumn, 1909: Should we reset this to 36 hour phases? | |
| Autumn, 1909: Posting this in Global so everyone knows what's going on here: ATC stabbed me for a third time last turn, this time in such a way that I do not think I will make it into a draw if this game continues. As such I have told him that I will do everything in my power to throw to Germany if he does not hit draw by the end of the build phase. If he does not hit draw, my draw vote goes down permanently and this game will end a solo. The ball is in his court now. |
|
| Autumn, 1909: I also changed the phase length back to 36h. | |
| Autumn, 1909: Stab me once, shame on you. Stab me twice, shame on me. Stab me thrice, I seem to be getting off on it. | |
| Spring, 1910: Apologies for the delay! | |
| Autumn, 1910: Ooo stroke of luck, ATC are you about? | |
| Autumn, 1910: Just heading to bed- but you can send me a PM and I'll get it in my morning. | |
| Autumn, 1910: Not to worry I have emailed the webdipmod email :) | |
| Spring, 1911: Could I ask for a 24h pause? A bit busy on my end. Not in the least due to the FTF coming up! | |
| Spring, 1911: Sure thing. I note that the draw and pause buttons are too close together. |
|
| Spring, 1911: I've voted to unpause. | |
| Spring, 1911: Bump for unpause | |
| Spring, 1911: Thanks. The good news is that the pause helped me earn €10k for my company! So happy. | |
| Spring, 1911: Woah! Congrats! | |
| Spring, 1911: Thanks! First big score since I joined, so feels good. | |
| Spring, 1911: (it's been a busy few days) | |
| Spring, 1911: Damnit, TM. This could have been a two way. | |
| GG, all! A great conclusion to a great game :) | |
| Well played, gentlemen. | |
| I have a meeting right now, but I'll write something more detailled up soon. |
