Commentary for F1901

I AM SO FUCKING PISSED.

First of all, here's the link to the game since the guy who started the thread was a fucking moron and didn't put it on the opening post: gameID=40074

Today's "King of Shitty Moves" award is a tie between Italy and Turkey, making it a major clusterfuck in the South.

Italy - No words. You fell for it, twice. You convoyed to TUN, leaving VEN open. You moved to MUN as if God was going to support you in with thunder and lightning from above. Even if he could, he wouldn't, because you know what? You're a fucking idiot. You have a zero probability of ever getting Venice back. Even if you do, your life will suck anyway. Fuck you - you brought it upon yourself.

Turkey - Well how about that. Letting Russia into BLA, leaving an isolated army in GRE. You put so much effort into your failures...shameful.

Germany - Like I said earlier, all you have is a bunch of enemies. England got his army on the mainland, France is militarizing BUR, Italy wants MUN and you just cockblocked Russia, which is kind of like cockblocking your own brother, given that everyone else pretty much hates your guts already. Your balls are in a vice. Your family planning has pretty much been done for you.

Austria - I can't really say what you did there was smart or anything, as it essentially relied on Italy's stupidity. Leaving VEN open? What the hell were you thinking? Russia's got an army in RUM, and you're not going to get past Venice at any rate. You're pretty much fucked during midgame unless you pull some seriously brilliant shit. Which, of course, you won't, because your head is up your arse.

Russia - Ok, I will admit that the move to hold MOS was clever in that England has a fleet in NWY now. But seriously, what the hell are you going to do next? Use Austria's help? Sounds like a fucking plan, since all his resources will be protecting his Western front.

England - You've benefited the most from everyone else's stupidity in this game. But this doesn't mean your the next fucking Einstein. Stop wanking off and start diploming for your worthless life.

France - like I said, fucked in the Brest soon.

Seriously, why in the hell am I doing this anyway? And Draugnar, I sure as hell know you're in the game. No matter how hard you try to hide it, your press is a dead giveaway.

You, know, no one said this would be a commentary game. It's bad form to comment on an ongoing game so I wish Ava would shut the fuck up.
Draugnar (0 DX)
20 Oct 10 UTC
Seriously, I am in the game and I didn't sign up for commentary. Nowhere here does it say this will have public commentary. so SHUT THE FUCK UP, CUNT!
stratagos (3269 D(S))
20 Oct 10 UTC
although I agree that commentary was not requested at setup, I personally don't care one way or the other. However, I think the precedent was set with MM's spastic freakout a few weeks ago - unless the game is set up with commentation to begin with it's probably not kosher to just start. Even though it's public press and it's not like Ava is saying anything exciting - you expect new stratagems from *him??
stratagos (3269 D(S))
20 Oct 10 UTC
and I called it with Draug being in the game. I rule.
ava2790 (232 D(S))
20 Oct 10 UTC
Are you guys kidding? The precedent for commentary was set during the previous rage game. Draugnar is just doing what draugnar does and being a sissy about metagaming or whatever. This one time I was in an anon game with draug. I guessed draug but he didn't guess me. Later on he started accusing me of metagaming just because he was pissed. Jeez draug, I think you're ok, but you're a bit of a sissy. I say something about you and you can't take it so you bring up the rules...
I like how there are three countries whose press resembles mine. lol
ava2790 (232 D(S))
20 Oct 10 UTC
I mean, I'll concede that I shouldve asked first, so I'll do it. Draugnar, strat and anyone else - is it ok for me to continue commentary? Reply on global if youwant to remain anon etc

No. No commentary. Shut the fuck up, Ava.
Draugnar (0 DX)
20 Oct 10 UTC
Oh, and I do have a valid reason. Everyone has already figured out who I am in game, so I have no problem here. Turkey and Italy are fucking morons and Ava may well give them ideas, being a littel (not a lot, just a little) smarter than them. I don't want my plans fucked up because Ava pointed something out.
Draugnar (0 DX)
20 Oct 10 UTC
I think Strat's commentary in the last one is what lead to a seven way draw. The fuckups got help from Strat even thought that wasn't his intent.
Draugnar (0 DX)
20 Oct 10 UTC
I will amend my commentary. Ava is free to fling insults or whatever, but don't go into game specifics. I don't what the fucktards getting any help. Russia is the only other player wiht half a brain so far. Germany maybe, time will tell. But the other four are some of the greatest fuckups that Diplomacy has ever seen.
ava2790 (232 D(S))
20 Oct 10 UTC
That's what I was going for anyway. But I am glad you have accepted your inadequacies in such a forthcoming manner.
Draugnar (0 DX)
20 Oct 10 UTC
My inadequacies? Fuck bitch, look at the map. I got Turkey to do exactly what I expected. And I don't know what the fuck Italy was doing, but it worked out even better than I had hoped for.
Katsarephat (100 D)
20 Oct 10 UTC
I had mentioned the possibility of commentary in one of the early posts, but I will defer to consensus if we are afraid of the game being spoiled.

That said, ava has yet to post the slightest hint of anything useful. Seriously, what a turd.
Ursa (1617 D)
20 Oct 10 UTC
Yeah, leave that little girl to post some comments. It's better to have a non-too smart commentator than someone who analyses the game perfectly. At least he knows how to insult people.
stratagos (3269 D(S))
20 Oct 10 UTC
No he doesn't - but neither do you, so I'm not suprised you don't understand that.

"France is militarizing BUR, Italy wants MUN "... This is game specific shit.
ava2790 (232 D(S))

But it's for turns that have elapsed. I'm not telling him what to do.
stratagos (3269 D(S))
20 Oct 10 UTC
Playing devil's advocate, it may not be obvious that, say, Italy wants MUN. It would take a moron not to figure this out, but that describes most of the people playing the game...

Fuck, you guys are dumbasses for not letting him commentate. The guy is fucking hilarious but you're all too butthurt to realize it.
