Thanks first of all to Chris for an excellent job of GMing! A thankless task, I know, and always under-appreciated.
An enjoyable game, with some ups and downs. I decided early on to go with Hugh as an ally, and despite some temptations, and some annoyance at the sheer volume
of his press J I stuck with that, and since he did too, we had a deal. Rob, I feel somewhat
bad that it didn’t work out between us, but there’s always another game? Philip and I never really trusted each other which I understand. It is a pity, but the might have beens were greater than the what actually happened! A pity!
Congratulations to Hamish on an excellent game. The name of the game was always to stalemate your advances, so well played.

Two solid alliances and the games natural stalemate lines resulted in the four way draw!
The game ended just in time as my computer gave up the ghost and my desktop files are
gone for about three more days. Thanks go out to GM for keeping the game on track!
Dorian hung in there through thick and thin or I would not have a part of draw.
More to come when I have a computer without mini keys to use.
With Warm Regards!

Gentlemen,
I am pleased to announce that we have unanimous agreement on the following end-game proposal:
4-way Draw including France, Germany, Russia and Turkey.
You may all congratulate you on a well-earned 1/4 victory! Austria gets credit as a survivor.
Neither of the other two proposals (FT 2-way and DIAS) received unanimous Yes votes.
I'm looking forward to your end of game statements. Please publish directly to the group and you can include the blitzforum, as well.
I'll have comments at a future time. For now, thanks to everyone for an exceptionally smooth-running game. Hope you all enjoyed yourselves
and are looking forward to doing it again next year.
Cheers,
Chris
