Dumb Question - How do you win?
According to the rules you will as soon as you have control of 18 bases. When do you have control? When you occupy 18 bases or at the end of a complete year?

EOG BLOODLINES
Last game. Thanks for a fun set of games everyone.

All I have to say is that when I saw Czech missed support on STP and gave the game away I just laughed out loud, since it was such a small thing after such a long, hard fought game that ended up being the difference.

I guess that's where Diplomacy reflects real life: silly mistakes, oversights can often be massive deciding points in a battle. El-Alamein could have been so different.

I did a face palm. So stoopid. How did the series work out? WLDES? I know I won one, and dew at least one but can't remember any others.

Wowowowow.

What a photo finish!
Czech, I thought you had this tourney in the bag! but Jmeyers you sneaky devil. Great competition!
Barn3tt (41969 D)
30 Mar 12 UTC
fun fact: everyone lost points except jmeyersd and Czech... (so wish that Babak had been eliminated in Fury...sigh)

good series, you two

As I said before, I really entered this tourney pretty rusty having not played higher level games. I had some bad luck (wish I had the original start :( ) with my Austria hit by Italy and Russia by Turkey, but also suffered due to lack of focus on the diplomatic aspect of the game. I thought jmeyersd especially excelled in this regard. Great series. Thank you for setting it up Lando. I learned a lot and look forward to the next iteration of this fun tourney.
I really have to say I hope you guys are happy with the result of trying to force me out to get a 3-way draw...
:D

Great game everyone. This has been an epic tournament, and many to thanks to Lando for setting it up and letting me play.

I felt almost guilty taking the solo in that last one, since it was clearly just a misorder/oversight from France that let me into STP. Almost :)
But it was a great game throughout. England's solo attempt really backfired there!

I think this tournament has definitively answered the question of which country is the best gunboat power, huh? 2 solos for Turkey. Was the yellow man eliminated at all?

Thanks all. It was a great experience for me. I'm in awe. :-)
Yeah, thanks to everybody. It was a fun and quite unpredictable series.
Babak (26982 D(B))

Thank you all, I had a lot of fun and did better than I expected with my dearth of Gunboat experience. But I honestly felt I had done much worst in the tournament.

this game, was just horrible decision after horrible decision as Germany. with EF fighting and R on the ropes, instead of capitalizing I somehow managed to make everyone my enemy. I truly suck at gunboat.

I'd love do play a similar series but with Press games if 6 players would be up for it!
Mujus (1495 D(B))
30 Mar 12 UTC
I'm pretty sure I'd be a net donor of points again, but if you're thinking of running a press series, let me know. :-)

I could go off on a Billy Joel rant from this point, and that might cheer me up...but I just don't know. Does anyone have some level of understanding of something pertaining to something like something that resembles pre-vacation blues or something?

Remember the Scott Expedition, of which three members died 100 years ago today
"Every day we have been ready to start for our depot 11 miles away, but outside the door of the tent it remains a scene of whirling drift. I do not think we can hope for any better things now. We shall stick it out to the end, but we are getting weaker, of course, and the end cannot be far. It seems a pity but I do not think I can write more. R. Scott. For God's sake look after our people."
