Captain of the Watch

Farsightedness: The Butterfly Effect states that a butterfly that flaps its wings in Malaysia could cause a typhoon in British Columbia. So too could minor variations in one part of the board affect play across the board. The Captain of Watch asesses the board for all possible impacts - both immediate and long-term.

I would comment, but there's nothing of significance I can add to the reality that one player has 16 centers, needs 52, and cannot win the game outright for what, 6 months real time or a decade in game time?

Center counts...

Chart, showing center trends over the course of the game...
http://www.diplomaticcorp.com/country_stats.php?type=game&game_id=dc394

There are 102 supply centers. 52 to win. See all this, here...

Both the counts and charts will be updated for this turn, when builds are posted tomorrow.

Subject: Re: dc394 f07 results!

May I please ask a couple of questions that have been confusing me
over the last game year?

1) Can we get a report, or show me where the report exists, of what
the center counts actually are at the moment? Counting the units and
the builds etc. is quite tedious, so I actually have no idea how to
react to Tom's note.

2) Plus, I thought the de facto standard for "solos" is more than half
the centers. Am I wrong? The Knights are NOWHERE near half the
centers. If so, what IS the center count for a solo?

3) Is this Diplomacy or Tiddlywinks? Just because someone is "tight
with their neighbors", does that mean all bets are off? I recognize
the value in "group negotiation", but lack the context....

Cheers, Wink

Jim-Bob

This message is in reply to post 22269:

Some big swings this round! Several people up 2 or 3, and normally that would be pretty cool! But then we have the Knights and their +5...

Both Garry of the Wizards and Michael of the Ogres are eliminated! And the Undead plunge into Civil Disorder, having missed two consecutive turns. This reduces our game to 10 players!
