Congrats Trout!
Well-played.
Thanks as always to Mike.
Not much of an EoGer, but regardless:
Teaming with Stephen seemed obvious from the begininng.
I was trying to get Garry and Fletcher to go at it. And eventually settle with one.
While I most often preferred siding with Fletcher, I ended up working with Garry.
While I should have moved on Garry earlier, Stephen kept on arguing otherwise.
I did try several times to negotiate truce between Stephen and Fletcher, but it wasn't going to happen.
I never felt I was playing my best but was cleverly outplayed at times.
Thanks to everyone for playing.
And if I didn't mention something/someone, it is mostly because I've forgotten it long ago.
later, Rob

I am also completely disapointed in Fletch. he just attempted to stab me as well.
I dont see why a seasoned player would allow another player to solo when they could have easily
forced a draw.
Trout - you may win this one, but it's not because of better play by you know - it;s because Fletch
played like an idiot.

Hearty congratulations are in order to Former Trout, who has led the Space Quest janitors and burger counter clerks to a devastating 32-sc solo!!!
Only 30 sc were needed to win, and picking up a whopping 4 in the last year made all the difference – netting Trout his first solo in the club.
This is also the first ever solo in one of my FOW games, and as such Trout gets the trophy for first solo in a Fog game, and I do have to say he also gets the honors of best stab in a fog game for his devastating move on Warren early on – taking 5 centers over 2 years, almost completely unseen and unstoppable by the defender. I guess to be fair we can also award Warren the best stabbed. 
STEVE: You have to confirm the retreat of Caladan-Ecaz, since it determines the final SC counts.
**************************************************************
Quick recap of the game to help y’all with EOG’s which I know are all forthcoming:
First out was Eric, going into Civil Disorder pretty early on. Year 3 it was.
Next out was Hamish, a year after… hit early on by Eric, and then when he disappeared, was finished off by Trout.
Then the game went into overdrive, and nobody else was taken out until year 9, when we saw Trout’s explosive growth at the expense of Warren.
After this it was year 12 when Felix was finally polished off by Steve, Garry, and Fletch
And that leaves us where we are now, after 16 years played, and a 280-day game! 1 winner, 5 survivors, and 4 that didn’t make it to the end.

| Dark Side of the Fog: Game End - SOLO! - test_gm (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am) |
Hi everyone,
Do you want fries with that? *grin*
I can't tell you all how much I enjoyed this game. Everything - from the units to the names of the provinces to the FOG style of the game to you - my fellow players - it all combined into one awesome ride. Thanks to all of ya for providing me with such a good time, and thanks to Mike for helming one hell of a game. =)
I remember laughing my ass off when I saw that my power was 'Spacequest'. All of the country themes really amused me - but I think I liked the Spacequest the best. It gave me a strange thrill over the course of the game to be spreading out burger barns across the map...
My strategy for the FOG game was pretty simple - Information is Power. I never did give out the map of my original home centers to anyone - although I exchanged a doctored version of it to Penger... (Sorry Steve - it made me chuckle to think of you running with a map that had a fake province named 'Peeyu' in it...)
At any case, right from the start I followed the strategy of lying my ass off to everyone I talked to. Poor Felix must have been *really* confused after talking to me about powers that didn't border him. Warren and Garry I stayed pretty much on the level with until we were fighting- but tried my best not to provide very much information to either.
Hamish was the first threat. When I saw how close he was to my home centers I pretty much determined right from the start that he had to go. When information I handed to him - or spaces that I knew only he and I could see - started to be referenced in emails from Penger, that only confirmed it. I managed to get the upper hand positioning-wise off the first jump and after that it was all gravy.
During the Hamish adventure, I had made DMZ's in both Pestulon with Garry and in Dramidj Ocean with Warren. There was a period of a few turns after Hamish was dealt with that I had to decide which was the next way to go. Moving into the center island at that point wasn't an option - I had only one army and I saw that the center was already a cluster-full of guys - Rob, Garry, and Steve to name a few. The only directions to go were either north or east.
I sent out expeditionary forces in both directions. The southern land-mass extended northwards into the Booty Bay bottleneck - a stab on Garry would have resulted in one or two quick centers but a quagmire afterwards...
On the other hand, my northward foray found me stumbling right into the heart of Warren's territory unopposed. In one move, I was suddenly in range of four or five of Greyhawk's undefended centers. Guilt struck me as I found myself in this position, and I was still getting strategy emails from Warren planning out the attack on Steve... But the guilt didn't outweigh the sheer fact that it was the perfect stab opportunity. My decision was made and northwards I went.
The rest went pretty smoothly until the end-game. I devastated Warren and was in position quickly enough to block Steve in the north. Through more deception and trickery, I backed Penger up onto the northern continent and out of northern waters. Somehow I managed to keep Steve and Rob guessing in the central island and steadily gained position there.
And in the south, I finally had to tackle Garry... That one was even harder for me to do then stabbing Warren was, but I knew that the nitty-gritty of the game was going to occur in the Super Mario Bros lands. Garry put up a spirited fight, but through sheer numbers I was able to bludgeon my way through...
All through the game, I had two very good allies - Mikael and Fletch. Mikael was a direct ally - and I kept him in it for his constant help but also simply because it pissed Penger off so much... (To be honest, it was nice to know that there was one center that - if a stalemate situation arose, I could fall back on and snap up.. Thankfully, it didn't come down to that.)
Fletch, on the other hand, was an indirect ally. I knew that as long as he continued to stir up trouble in the east that I would have a chance at the solo. I did what I could do to keep him in the loop of what was happening out my way - we had a common enemy in the Penger / Rob duo.
Fletch's stab of Garry at the end only hastened the finale. My plan was to take the Jolly Roger Bay and had the forces to do it in place. The turn after that Jolly Roger would cut support in Arc-Royal and I would force my way into Croctopus Bay. That would have meant that I didn't gain any centers that year, but both of those moves would have been unstoppable with the uncuttable supports that I had in place.
The following game-year, I would have used Croctopus to cut Arc-Royal support and moved Jolly Roger into the Isle of Skye with support from Booty Bay. That was one of the two centers that I needed. Then, I gave myself a few turns to force myself into Hazy Maze or Donut Plains... If I had failed in either of those two, I would have stabbed Mikael for his center and the last one that I needed to solo...
So don't be angry at Fletch - this game had already reached the point where it was just a matter of mopping up the last couple centers.
That's pretty much it. Once again, I seriously enjoyed this game and would play another FOG game in a heartbeat...
Hamish - our time together was too short. You were a great first foe.
Felix - you crazy kid - you drove me bonkers at the beginning of this one with all your emails... =P
Eric - Wish you had stuck in there bud.. The game would have been vastly different.
Warren - My stab on you was the textbook definition of a must-stab situation. That doesn't mean that you deserved it though... I was just lucky to move north at the exact right time, I think.
Garry - You were no pushover at the end, bro. It took everything I had to peel you back. I did it, but it wasn't easy. Hold your head high dude.
Rob - I enjoyed talking to you during the course of the game. We really didn't have much interaction till the end - but I'll look forward to the next one..
Fletch - One of my biggest accomplishments in this one was to link our two forces from across the map. What can I say except that you're the man, dude!
Mikael - You were my ace in the hole, and I can't tell you how much I appreciated all the help you extended to my troops during the game. Thanks for all the memories, bro.
Penger - What can I do? Grudging respect... You won the mini-game and were easily the biggest threat to my solo effort throughout the entire game. The only place I met with constant failure was at my attempts to break your northern naval blockade. As always, you were a hell of an opponent.
Sims - Very fun game. Excellent and smooth GMing. One of my favorite games I've ever been in - and that's not simply because I'm the one on top. ..
But this EOG is probably far too long already. Cheers everyone - thanks again for the great game - and I'd be honoured to be in another with any of you.

Here's My EoG
Almost imidiatley I encountered Stephen and formed what I thought was a solid alliance. About one season after that, Rob appeared on my map. From that point on, it all went downhill. They beat me back, inch by inch - and then Warren appeared in my back. I thought he might save me, and for some time he did. However, illusions rarely last. When all looked lost, I sailed a lone fleet about as far south as I could. Truth to be told, I think I was eliminated at one point, had I not found an sc to shelther in. However, Trout took me under his wing; and I pledged eternal alligience and support. I was pretty sure he would wipe me out, but to his credit he did not. I was a bit surprised that no-one made any real attempts at swaying me from Trout's side; I very much doubt I would have turned on him, but I could have caused him at least some problems with my little unit. Alas, Trout managed the solo and rightfully so - Well played old chap!
(any errors blamed on my rp not wanting to work; hence no way of backtracking through the seasons)

Hearty congratulations are in order to Former Trout, who has led the Space Quest janitors and burger counter clerks to a devastating 32-sc solo!!!
Only 30 sc were needed to win, and picking up a whopping 4 in the last year made all the difference – netting Trout his first solo in the club.
This is also the first ever solo in one of my FOW games, and as such Trout gets the trophy for first solo in a Fog game, and I do have to say he also gets the honors of best stab in a fog game for his devastating move on Warren early on – taking 5 centers over 2 years, almost completely unseen and unstoppable by the defender. I guess to be fair we can also award Warren the best stabbed.
STEVE: You have to confirm the retreat of Caladan-Ecaz, since it determines the final SC counts.
**************************************************************
Quick recap of the game to help y’all with EOG’s which I know are all forthcoming:
First out was Eric, going into Civil Disorder pretty early on. Year 3 it was.
Next out was Hamish, a year after… hit early on by Eric, and then when he disappeared, was finished off by Trout.
Then the game went into overdrive, and nobody else was taken out until year 9, when we saw Trout’s explosive growth at the expense of Warren .
After this it was year 12 when Felix was finally polished off by Steve, Garry, and Fletch
And that leaves us where we are now, after 16 years played, and a 280-day game! 1 winner, 5 survivors, and 4 that didn’t make it to the end.

| Dark Side - all out! - test_gm (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am) |
Lumping me in with Felix (who I like and admire as a Dip player) is lame. We're different.
If you go back and check, you'll see that I've never (I don't think..I'd need to check as well) thrown a game for a solo...although I've been HELPED to GO solo...more than once. And in this game, I don't see it as throwing a game but rather helping to decide a winner...which is over-stating it a bit since, as Trout said, its really HIS good play that sealed this game. My move just helped move the game to quicker end.
So why "let" someone solo...what was my motivation this time?
Your play. Allowing you into a draw (if possible) would basically help you achieve a win...and at the end of the day, I thought Trout "deserved" a win over you. You did nothing to build an allaince or build trust with anyone except the player that you had in your pocket from the start...then about 3 years too late, you ASSUMED everyone you'd stabbed (or helped GET stabbed) all game would help you stop Trout.
You're a very talented player, Stephen...more talented than me but THAT is your blind spot. You assume people SHOULD play the way you play...and assume that you're playing well all the time...and assume that you don't need anyone else but your one key ally that you pick at the start of the game.

At the end of the day, I play to either achieve a win for myself or to make damm sure someone else does not get one.
Only you and Felix seem to play to let other people win.
Personally I hate that type of play. and i hate playung against those players.

Agreed on all points.
I don't mind the name calling and will save my full explanation for my EOG. Needless to say, from this idiots perspective, it was complete failure of my neighbors to work with me EARLY in the game that led to a Trout solo...along with characteristic arrogance form one player in particular who just assumed his "logic" would prevail despite several ill-timed and senseless betrayals.
All the best,
Fletcher

Gents,
From where I sit, Fletch is hastening the inevitable. Which I will demonstrate if Steve continues with this temper tantrum he seems to be on.
You guys might be angry at Fletch right now - but I'll explain in my EOG how a solo on my part was unstoppable and just a matter of time. That sounds really arrogant, and I apologize if it comes across like that... It's the truth, however, as much as some people don't want to believe it.
Insults aside, its been a hell of a game. Whether it ends now or in two moves, I consider myself lucky just to have played this one with you guys. It's been a lot of fun. =)
Cheers,
Trout

Trout - you may win this one, but it's not because of better play by you know - it;s because Fletch
played like an idiot.

Yeah...Fletch just threw the game to Trout. I assure you that I will spend the few remaining units I have to Trout and make sure that I attack Fletch. That was really pretty dumb. There is NO WAY that you can get a part of a two-way draw...what were you thinking?
Yes, I am vindictive and yes, I will gladly ensure that Trout wins. Stupid stupid boy.

I vote NO for any and all solo proposals.
This can be considered final until the game ends.

You should have a new map by now, if not come find me!
Remember the two draws proposed!

| dc118 & dc122 deadlines - test_gm (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am) |
All results are out! If you don’t have a map let me know.
Minigame guesses: Steve, 0/1
Next deadlines:
Retreats: Friday 12/14, 2pm Pacific (tomorrow)
Fall ’06 / ‘07: Thursday 12/20, 2pm Pacific (1 week from today)
Builds: Sunday 12/23, 2pm Pacific (10 days from today)
If these all go to schedule, the next deadline would then be Sunday 12/30 for the next Spring, with Fall being after the new year. This seems to keep key deadlines off of major holidays. If anyone cannot make those dates, let me know before the turn comes!
Attached, icon set 2 of 19 for FOW4, the Elves!
