haha.....you guys suck! And the GM says "NO! Who's going to write press if Frank is gone???"

Well, I can at least say I saw the chance coming. One member of the new "Let's just kill Frank" alliance didn't hold his cards too well, and gave me enough of a peak that I considered ordering a cover to Holland. Prudence told me though that if there were three against me, it might be better to fail catastrophically than to inch into oblivion.

As it turns out (sorry to get heavy for a bit), I've got a friend in Gib who just went into CCU do to a couple of brain embolisms. He's in poor shape. So I might be getting on a plane in a day or two. With these current results, I won't have to think about letting the game down by disappearing or just going through the motions. A good thought (or prayers from the faith based out there) for my buddy Jeff would be appreciated.

Huge Kudos to Max, who while still at two, had the player most trying to step on this throat laid low. Also kudos to an unnamed player (I'll save for eog) who crafted the perfect lie to help sway things against me.

To Jorge and Joe, a pox on both your houses. ; )

Oh....and I have a very live fleet that can help somebody. If you have anything in mind, drop me a line. I won't be responding right away most likely, but there is no sense wasting a perfectly good unit. And if you all keep me alive, I might just keep the press flowing when I have the chance.

Take care.
Frank

Dc Mods are urged to avoid Atlantic City, as the Moderator picks get slammed! Balkans and Germany are reduced to 2 a piece, to be outdone for last place only by our newbie game winner and odds guru Frank.

Norway is the clear winner being the only player to score 2 builds, tho certainly Italy, Russia, and Turkey will be happy to build at least 1. Everyone else broke even, staying at 3 centers, albeit with some interesting swaps taking place!.

PRESS:

AP Holland: Well, I am either +1, or -1. I either have two friends, or no friends. Haha...can't wait to see the results. Max, if you turned the tables on me, great job!


(Rumors circulate that the AP Holland is under new management)
BUILDS:

Norway: Build 2

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
