I'd rather draw than play a game with a CD

And FFS retreat phases...

I've waited as long as I can, I have to go. I've done my best to balance what I can with my last set of moves. I must say I think that Turkey is being a bit of a dick, but it's my fault for doing a live game. I won't make that mistake again.

Good game, strat.

If Strat CDs I'm out too.

Wait...If you're out too, I'm out too...but I'm sure as hell not giving this game to the assmunch.

hey I just noticed this...

I will draw... but I really dont appreciate it... I put aside MY time to play a freaking FULL game... not for some half-ass game...

and I have finalized EVERY turn... with a few minutes left... dont give me that shit.

I'd MUCH prefer to Draw and finish this game out... this was SUCH a good game... so much going on... and a serious battle...

why a RUSH to go to draw??? I dont get it...

doh! I mean much prefer to pause.

Because it;s friggin *midnight*, Babak, and I have to be up in four hours. As I said, this is my fault; I was under the impression these things lasted a shorter time than this is; hence the reason I originally requested a pause

Babak, you have got to be kidding me. Pausing a live game is the worst idea ever. THe only time I paused a live game, unpausing was extremely hard as nobody was on at the same time as the others.

I would prefer to cancel it than to draw it. thats what it comes down.

i have voted for both cancel and pause...

If you guys want to pause, I will commit to getting online tomorrow evening. I'll end up dying, but I don't particularly care

this game - despite ALL this fucking talking we just did... should be an English Solo or a 3way draw...

this is kind of nuts.

It looks like the Czech has checked out!?

this game should be a 3way draw...

but whatever - i dont want to piss you all off... i will draw it the way it is.

whats final?

You know, with the solo in sight, I share some of Babak's sentiments, and wrt this it is unfortunate that strat has to leave. That was definitely one of the better games in the last couple weeks but hey what can you do...I've played ftf where someone had to leave etc.

Seriously guys - -this was SUCH a good game... it was going exactly how a GOOD gunboat is supposed to go... but it should NOT have been a draw.

Again, I take the responsibility for this upon myself. I don't blame you, Babak, especially if you didn't see this thread until now

Good game and Good Night. I'm 2 hours past sleepy time.

Babak, if you want another one we can try again.

well - guys - great game like ava said...

I did like this crew very much - no NMRs... serious players who saw dangers and played VERY well... I loved it.

as EOG - I should ahve taken the opportunity to stab Russia before he stabbed me. or at least left a fleet in ank to defend... had I done that, I could have prevented the open defense I left France and F would have been eliminated for a 3way WITH Russia. but live and learn I guess.

good game guys.

hmm... so If I've done this right... someone check my formula...

(470.11044337438600 / 17.5) = 26.8634539 {Babak} +
(331.02514387069920 / 17.5) = 18.9157225 {The Czech}+
(326.21869886131600 / 17.5) = 18.6410685 {Strategos}+
(208.65238111090600 / 17.5) = 11.9229932 {Ava}+
(114.34116245757800 / 17.5) = 6.53378071 {*Smiley*}+
(100.00000000000000 / 17.5) = 5.71428571 {JJ}+
(79.055836089118950 / 17.5) = 4.51747635 {thespaceheel}

= 93.1087809 (total GR in pot)

4/way draw each drawer gets: 23.2771952

so I lost ~4 GR points...

Whereas, a 3 way draw would have meant = 31.0362603 or a gain of ~4 .

and a solo... if I'd played just a little bit better...

sigh!

one BIG question for you strat... I suppored Bud to Vie like 20 times... did you not notice that support? why didnt you take it? specially when France was looking so powerful and I was not yet threatening? I really was coonfused by why you did not take that support so many turns in a row.

Huh. But I'd have soloed before you!

and if anyone is reading this thread... here is the game:
