Gentlemen,
I must gather all my remaining mental power to get these few lines written
down, cause we partied all evening on the streets after Germany ran over
England in the world cup. So you might excuse if the USSR embassy remained
closed for the whole day... *hic*

| dc330: Sp37 Orders Deadline coming up, plus Origin... - dknemeyer (Jun 26, 2010, 9:36 pm) |
Hi Everyone,
The deadline for turning in your spring 1937 orders is coming up, due this Tuesday at 5 PM ET! This is the first time I have not gotten a complete set of prelims (and to this moment have only five sets of orders) so be sure you don't forget and miss the deadline with nothing submitted!
A few of you have asked me privately about the Dip tournament at Origins and I thought I would thus respond to everyone. Lots of detail here so feel free to ignore if you're not interested.
The tournament was designed as a three round tournament, with playing beginning at 6p each evening of Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
On Thursday it was veeeery slow to get started, not kicking off until about 7. The turnout was very low and thus there were only enough people for one board. Typically they play 3-4 boards and last year had 7. Unfortunately for me those people who came this year were all the "cream of the crop": along with me - who had never played face-to-face - there was another what I would call lesser player who had played quite a bit in college but not since for a long time, then four former champions of this tournament and one fellow they all said was very dangerous and expert. One of the former champions was Thomas Haver who won the 2008 North American Grand Prix (series of tourneys around the continent, highest weighted score wins); another was Chris Mazza, a 2-time DipCon winner and North American champion.
I drew France and allied with England (Haver) against Germany (the other player who, along with myself, seemed inferior to the rest). I opened to Pic and Bur with support and had Bel, Mun and Spa at the end of 1901. After that I largely stagnated and sat on 7 centers for a number of years. Haver grew more slowly but, since he had position on me starting in 1903, I was forced to allow him to grow in a better and more complete way. On the other side of the board it appeared a Juggernaut was on but in 1902 Turkey stabbed and by 1903 Russia was crippled. It then became immediately apparent that an AIT was on so Haver and I offered solace to Russia (Jason Seifert) and hurried to get the stalemate line in place. We did so despite AIT insisting we wouldn't be able to which was nice, from the standpoint of showing off some tactical chops.
The AIT was horribly imbalanced, with Italy (Robert Zahn) stuck on 4 centers all game until the veryvery end, Austria (Mazza) topping out at 5 or 6, and Turkey (Nate ?) behind them all with even more. As soon as the stalemate line was hit Turkey stabbed. However he did it at exactly the wrong moment and in the wrong way: a year before or after and I think it would have been lethal, or, if he had ordered Rum - Bud instead of Rum - Bul out of defensive paranoia he would have cracked Austria. So, Austria was *just* able to cover his remaining centers during the following year while completely vacating the territory around the stalemate line. We surged, they regressed and England and I simply waited to see who would prove strongest in order to execute a 3-way with them. It proved to be Austria but we were only able to get the vote after eliminating Italy who - we think - was voting it down. At the end it was just the three of us, along with a 2 center Turkey. England had 13 dots, I had 10 dots and thus Austria must have had 9.
My sharing in the draw was thanks in some real part to Haver's largesse. There were two moments where he could have - or I might even say should have! - stabbed me but he stayed the course. One of those two times I even ordered Eng - Lon for purely self-preservationist purposes but he blocked it.  Much of the game he had position on me and could have gone for the solo. I don't know that he would have made it, but he certainly could have gotten me out of a draw and increased his count.
Since it started so late on Thursday, and since everyone said that really late starts are typical, I came around 6:30 on Friday. Big mistake, as they had already started and I was frozen out! Needless to say I was hugely dejected. I had become really friendly with the core guys from the night before so hung around off-and-on for a couple of hours watching and serving as their conscience as they kept pulling me aside and telling me what they were thinking. That was kind of fun, the disappointment notwithstanding. At the time I left, around 11:30p, Seifert (now as Austria) had played a magnificent game and was positioned to certainly be part of the final result. Zahn (now England) likewise had played well and it was hard to see how he could be played out of the end. Haver was crippled but alive and with a chance to force into a draw as Russia, Turkey (new player) had just been stabbed by AR and his future was clearly terminal; France (new player) was sort of spinning with 5 or 6 centers and nowhere to go; Italy (Mazza) had just been stabbed by Austria and seemed done for; Germany was again the first one out, this time helmed by a hotshot traveling player from Chicago.
I had intended to play the final round tonight but decided that, since I would have no chance to win it all, I would get a start on going back home.
So, it was mixed: while I played well and had an excellent result in my only game, to be frozen out of the second day for being late was incredibly boneheaded. I'm really dejected about it.
For those of you who, like me, are children of the online era of diplomacy, playing face-to-face was actually a great time. I can't wait to do it again. However I do think it is dramatically harder than playing online. Once the adjudication is read everybody looks at the board for 30 seconds or a minute, then they immediately want to start diploming. There is not much time to get a sense for things and work thru the best moves without outside influence. I actually think this will be *good* for me longer term - quick, strong tactical assessment is one of my few strengths - but for the first time playing this way the lack of time to gather your thoughts and assess the situation definitely felt like a lot to deal with. Of course it wasn't helped by playing with such strong players. There were VERY few poor tactical choices, the game was almost entirely won and lost in the negotiating room. When people ordered they ordered very, very well, I daresay better than most if not all online games I've been a part of, top-to-bottom.
So, that was my little adventure!

I guarantee you this - if you went to a bar in America, and Canada was playing Ghana, you would not have seen that. I searched all over Ontario on my vacation looking for a single U.S. Men's National Team shirt - not one to be found, though you could get all the Greece, Mexico, France (out of the Cup), Italy (out of the Cup), and Russia (never in the Cup?!?) that you wanted.

Gentlemen,
Thank you all for your patience. I know that I've been late with the last two adjudications. That hasn't helped France, who suffers the second NMR this year, and is therefore placed in Civil Disorder.
The German army in Silesia is saved by the bell by a misorder of the Warsaw unit. Other than that we see the Austro-Italian alliance move forward in the Western Mediterranean.
Orders due:Austria: Supp 11, Units 9, Build 1England: Supp 5, Units 4, Build 1France: Civil DisorderGermany: Supp 6, Units 5, Build 1Italy: Supp 6, Units 6, Build 0
Russia: EliminatedTurkey: Eliminated
I will adjudicate early this season once I receive orders from you all marked FINAL!

| 1648 091010: Winter 1660 Retreats/Adjustments - charlesf (Jun 26, 2010, 5:51 am) |
Hallo zusammen,
England's expedition to the "cockpit of Europe" (Flanders) has proved
shortlived. Apparently fighting the Stewarts back at home is all Cromwell's
about these days. Rather interestingly, we now see the traditional strongholds
of royalist power in "godly" hands, whereas the cavaliers at hunkered down in
the Great Wen.
1660 has the bigger powers end with 16, 14 and 12 SCs respectively under
their belt. Shall one single ruler become the hegemon of the continent?
Whatever the future may hold, the two-way Polish-Turkish draw
proposal has now failed. Yet we now have another proposal up for the vote,
namely to concede the game to Turkey. So you guys have again something new
to vote on.
The Spring 1661 Moves are due
Friday, 30 June 6 PM CET.
Good luck to the US vs. Ghana!
Charles

| DC319: Our new Prime Minister! - charlesf (Jun 25, 2010, 1:08 pm) |
Hi guys,
David Gould has declared his readiness to take over
the burdens of governing the United Kingdom. The king has appointed him with
immediate effect.
David's also playing Italy in the 1936 game Dirk's
running.
To allow for sufficient time to negotiate, I'm
setting the deadline for next Wednesday, 30 June. You'll find David's mail
adress further below.
I'm now also giving everyone a clean slate in terms
of grace periods (i.e. two 6 hour grace periods) as a new player has
joined.
Have a nice weekend. And lets have those Three
Lions weep bitter tears!
Charles
Hallo zusammen,
let me note again that I enter illegal orders as simple hold orders, as
has occurred this season. I recommend testing whether your orders are all
legal by entering them into the Realpolitik module, for I don't always get
round to looking things over. I've been away in Weimar and hence both didn't
round to doing so and had some work to do first upon my return before getting
to the adjucation. I hope the delay hasn't overly taxed your patience.
Now what happened this season? For starters, Switzerland once again
changed hands - and a similar fate befell Egypt. The French may have been
kicked out of Scotland, but they've now made themselves comfortable in the
British capital, hardly welcome news to a Prime Minister who's now received
similarly bad news from the Low Countries and the North Sea. Shall
England have to brace herself for another 1066 or triumph as in
1588?
In other news, we now also say farewell to the last independent minor
power. Morocco (historically divided into a French and Spanish protectorate,
plus an international zone - in my game lumped together as one minor power)
finally succumbs fully to foreign influence.
The Winter 1940 Moves are due NLT 6PM CET on Wednesday, 23
June. Now, gotta root for the South Africans! Trash that
trainwreck Tricolore team! Spank those spoilt superstars! Bafana
Bafana, make your nation proud!
Liebe Grüsse,
Charles

PRESS:
POLISH PRESS: Dateline Warsaw: The Foreign Minister today released an
intercepted internal German government memo proposing a revision of the
Lebensraum concept from an eastern orientation to a western focus. Reached for
comment at one of Gdansk's many luxury sea-side resorts, a group of Belgians
on holiday seemed un-moved by the news. "British bosses, German bosses, it's
all machts nichts to us," said one member of the group, adding "Either way, we
get good cheese, bier, and football. The rest, we can live with."

Despite the fact that you guys are fighting a bitter battle across the board, there seems to be one thing you guys agree on: Tunis deserves protection. Both votes fail, but both were also reproposed, so vote with Spring orders. I'll be in China for the next week, but I should have email. Still, I would say that you guys REALLY should CC the Order Box.

| DC310: Summer Adjudication and Schedule - Samnuva (Jun 25, 2010, 9:07 am) |
Hey Guys-
So sorry about this unanounced delay (retreats are below). Basically, for the next week, I'll be going to China, and my internet connection may or may not exist. Therefore, I'm going to make fall due July 2nd. Winter 1904 Will be due Tuesday the 6th. Then, on Saturday the 10th, I'll send Spring 1905 out. I won't have computer access until the 23rd, however, so during that time we'll set a record for long turns. After that I should be able to keep us on the schedule I'm always missing. Just to recap:
All deadlines are at 7pm E.T.
Fall 1904: July 2nd
Winter 1904: July 6th
Spring 1905: July 10th
Fall 1905: July 23rd.
I'm sorry about this, but things happen. Speaking of which, the long-anticipated retreats:

| dc330: Wi36 Results! - dknemeyer (Jun 24, 2010, 1:35 pm) |
While fiercely embroiled in their continental power struggle, the
seven Great Powers took interest in the recent United States
presidential election: Franklin D. Roosevelt retained his position in
defeating challenger Alf Landon. Roosevelt, know for his focus and
investment on internal social and economic reform, remains unlikely to
involve his industrial powerhouse in European military matters. This
is certainly welcomed by those unlikely to curry favour with the
democratic United States while diminish hope for those who were
holding out hope they may have an ally in their ongoing intrigues.
Meanwhile there are rumours of significant potential German intrigue:
a Japanese diplomat was assassinated and discovered to have papers
relating to an "Anti-Comintern Pact" that would also involve Germany.
Whether the Germans are actually involved in such a gambit remains
unknown.
Over in the Soviet Union the Transcaucasian Socialist Federative
Soviet Republic was dissolved over December 10 and 11, thus converting
Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia as full Republics of the Soviet Union.
How or if this will impact the Soviet war effort remains to be seen.
At precisely the same time, on December 11 in Britain, Prince Albert,
the Duke of York, is crowned King, to reign as King George VI. some
observers are wary of how this might tilt carefully balanced
diplomatic agreements in the months ahead.
Prelims for Spring 1937 are due in 27 hours! Other upcoming deadlines
are at the end of this note.
