publish press on this topic, please move along to fresher topics.     Indonesia to all: It is very unfair what is happening. France and I am not knowing each other. We only know our names because of a mistake of the GM. France and I are not looking for a 2-way-draw. There was no contact you didn`t see. Making mood against us and claim we would betray is absolutely unfair. If I were GM I would not post this press. Because it is bare of all arguments. And I have to say that I don`t wanted to know France name because only of this information my relationship to Australia is in danger. Australia I hope you believe me and not somebody unfair and helpless.    7) Non writer of numbers 4 & 6: It might not be a bad idea, if Australia is game (and willing to forego his own victory), to go forth and fight the two nations that know each other and, apparently, aim for a two-way draw.
How about going for a five-way excluding Indonesia & France? Gunboat it is no longer anyway.    6) Statement no. 4 is correct: Knowing another player in a gunboat game is a big advantage even without direct communication.    5)France to NZ: Please join me in the attempt to stop Australia, no use in attacking me and let Australia win.    4) The good thing with gunboat is that you don't know the player. And thereby not the players psychological profile. Is he a partner to the end, is he a stabbing type if you turn your back to him, is he revengeful to the end if you have crossed him or is he a labdog.  Even if the two players don't communicate with one another they still know these facts.    3) France to all : Since this mistake has taken so much attention.I would like to clarify that I join
Indonesia and can promise you all I shall not contact him . Otherwise I wouldn't had brought all this into the attention of the GM in the first place.  GM: in interest of game play, this is from France.    2) Japan/Marshall/NewZealand/USAUSAUSA - Indonesia: Why should I not play on? If you want a two-way, good luck, but I won't surrender until I'm gone, and I wonder if a stalemate is possible in this variant. So either propose a DIAS or show me that a 2-way is really a likely result. I think not! GM two cents: forming a stalemate line in this game is much harder than in other ones which is why I like running the game.    1) Nobody has ever won this variant but Japan.  Looks like our current fearless leaders want a draw and keep Japan's record intact.=================================================================
