Re: Luck Plays No Part in Diplomacy
The stubborn insistence on claiming luck is a real and present factor is hilariously ridiculous, and I for one don't blame swordsman at all for getting frustrated with your willing self-delusion. I confess that I couldn't hope to be a bigger expert on self delusion than your good self, Wusti :) Nev...

Re: Luck Plays No Part in Diplomacy
To add to this point, it's worth mentioning why the poker comparison (not mine) is more apt than you give it credit for. My take is that poker and Diplomacy are both games of incomplete information. The underlying randomized process in poker is a game mechanic that is not present in Diplomacy, but i...

Re: Next level of gunboat metagame

Re: Next level of gunboat metagame

Re: ODC 2019 Tournament Discussion (finished games only)
I think we all did our fair share of yelling that game Ogion! I blame sum-of-squares for any annoying aspects of my play. Once my lines were secure, I didn't have anything to lose from continuing to irritate you as long as England was on board. (For what it's worth, I don't think I was ever dishone...

Re: ODC 2019 Tournament Discussion (finished games only)
Would love to see some EoG discussion take off here. Swordsman's record of his game was some of the most interesting diplomacy writing I've ever seen, by the way. Anyone in G12 interested?
