I think that having one or two people get booted per game is relatively normal, especially on WorldDip9 or Chaos. For five games in a row? I haven't really seen that too often.

That's what I thought too, but with NAf constantly tapping MAO, I couldn't go anywhere.

See, that's the issue I was having. There was progress I could make, but as soon as I took Moscow I'd sacrifice something else, and end up right back where I started before the attack. Same thing with Warsaw.

I recently got the closest I ever have to winning with England against bots. After 20 moves not going anywhere, I decided to draw, even though I had 16 centers.

A few weeks ago, I went on a vacation. I got basically every one of my games to pause for me while I was away, which was very kind. I returned in early January and got people to start voting unpause so we could continue playing our games. It took a day or two, but most games got rolling again. Excep...

My Autumn 1906 was the tipping point I think, wondering if there's anything I missed.

I'd agree learning solely on gunboat is tricky when transitioning to online play.
