Fairbot Belt challenge

Who ever thought a bot could beat a human at diplo in 1v1 ?
Maybe it is not yet the end for us, but it may well be the beginning of the end.

== Rules ==

Any player can challenge Fairbot in FvA (F = the player ; A = Fairbot).
S/he must play France and Fairbot will play Austria.

After creating the game, the challenger reports it here.
S/he has 3 days maximum to beat Fairbot, else s/he must concede.

At the end:
- If s/he wins, s/he can challenge it a next time. Etc.
- If s/he loses, s/he reports it in this thread and another player can challenge Fairbot and the former challenger must wait for 4 games being played before he can try again.

The ultimate Fairbot Belt holder is the player who wins against Fairbot 5 times in a row.

Also, I have discovered the Fairbot's advantage... it's not a dullard human. Please don't look at my S1908 Burgundy misorder... :nmr:

Or not.

That game fucking sucked. I worked so hard to come back from early bad guesses only to get outguessed again. This bot is soul-crushing sometimes.

Isn't this supposed to be
Fairbot: 2
Humans: 3
?
The bot can't complain but still.

Seriously becoming traumatic for me though. I don't know where I went wrong, strategically (besides losing every 50/50 in existence). Should I have gone for StP in 1903?
