In AD 1867, war was beginning...
*EXPLOSION*
Greeks: What happen ?
Ottomans: Somebody set us up the bomb.
Ottomans: We get signal.
Greeks: What !
Ottomans: Main screen turn on.
Greeks: It's you !!
BRS: How are you gentlemen !!
BRS: All your base are belong to us.
BRS: You are on the way to destruction.
Greeks: What you say !!
BRS: You have no chance to survive make your time.
BRS: HA HA HA HA ....
Greeks: Take off every zig !!
Greeks: You know what you doing.
Greeks: Move zig.
Greeks: For great justice.
Well - folks - I *think* this game is over? I received so many public
annoucements of draw votes and political campaigning, many of which
requested to be official and final - I can barely make sense of it
all. I *do* believe that everyone voted in favor of the 3-way BRS
draw.
***IF THIS IS NOT THE CASE - and I made a mistake confusing public
propaganda with official votes - please read no further and email me
immediately (forwarding me your evidence)***
Otherwise...speaking of for great justice - by virtue of the fact that
this occurred in Fall 1867, we actually have no eliminations in this
game. The Ottomans and Austrians would have been eliminated by their
disbands this winter, but well, fall ain't winter. So the Greeks,
Ottomans, Austrians, and Italians will be credited with survival, and
the Bulgarians, Serbians, and Romanians share in a 3-way draw.
***I would VERY VERY MUCH appreciate your EOG statements, especially
with constructive criticism of how the variant could be improved. I
have saved many of your notes from throughout the game, and would like
to specifically raise the issues of improving the Austria/Serbia
alliance option, and a discussion of the northern coast of Turkey
(needs redraw, or no?) Plus of course anything else you feel needs
work. And if you have anything nice to say about the variant, good
publicity is always appreciated too

PLAYERS:
ITALY: Adam Levy
AUSTRIA-HUNGARY: Allen York
SERBIA: Garry Bledsoe
GREECE: Nigel Phillips
ROMANIA: Mike Sims
BULGARIA: Ross Webb
OTTOMAN EMPIRE: Gregory Bim-Merle
Here then is the final adjudication. Assuming I have interpreted the
draw votes correctly, I thank you all for a very smooth and easy game
to GM, and for our survivors for fighting to the very end. It pleases
me greatly to see you rewarded with survival points rather than
elimination.
