A start without bumps.
We have press and lots of it!
Some bounces seem imminent.
Armenia is surrounded by 3 players.
All,
Good start. We have no retreats and are ready to roll into Fall. Let's set that deadline for next Thursday the 16th at 6pm CST. A quick note or two:
1. I was asked to share a map without the names because it is hard to see. That is attached.
2. I was asked for a list of all provinces. Unfortunately I could not find a list. However, I was able to get a list of the SC's. The neutral SC's at the begininng are as follows: Anatolia, Armenia, Austria, Bavaria, Bohemia, Brittany, Bulgaria, Cyrenaica, Denmark, Georgia, Hesse, Languedoc, Morroco, Muscovy, Novgorod, Piedmont, Portugal, Rumania, Saxony, Sweden, Tunisia, Turkestan, Venezia, Wessex.
I would suggest using the .dpy file if you have any other questions or concerns (or just ask!).
Press is below the order results. And oh - FTR - my money is on a 4-1 KOK and a 25-1 "good but not great" player.

Anon:
My wife and I were reading "Charlotte's Web" to our child a couple of nights ago. It reminded me of you. All of you. But some of you more than others of you. It's the bit where Wilbur first encounters Charlotte, and... well, the ways of a spider seem strange to a pig. It was at this moment that I realized: Charlotte plays Diplomacy. Really --
"Well," [Wilbur] thought, "I’ve got a new friend, all right! But what a gamble friendship is! Charlotte is fierce, brutal, scheming, bloodthirsty—everything I don’t like. How can I learn to like her...?
