PREV Winter 917 Adjudication: NEXT

DC229: The Winter 917 season has been adjudicated. Sorry for the lateness, but I was unable to adjudicate last night.

For the third season in a row, we have a huge game development, with Nigel deciding it is time to whittle down the membership in his alliance. Numerous army builds in Europe point to a stab of the East Franks, and Nigel will likely unite the Frankish kingdoms. Elsewhere, the Tang Dynasty looks to have reversed their aggressive plans and built armies.

I never received orders from Arabia or the East Frankish Kingdom. As a result, Arabia had 4 units chosen for disband using my disbandment algorithm, and the East Franks waived their builds. Regarding Arabia, he had 11 units and needed to disband 4. 6 of the units were in SCs, and thus are kept. Of the remaining 5 units, only 1 (in Mosul) bordered 3 SCs, and so that was the unit kept. For the East Franks, Russ has actively waived his builds in past seasons, although this season he did not send in any order, resulting in the passive waive of all builds.

We also have some Axumite press this season.

PRESS (Axum)

Ray Setzer and I have had many a disagreement over the course of time,
but I'm going to cite him anyway, because I love this quote, and it
seems appropriate here.

"Many a Diplomacy game has been won or lost, not by the actions of the
winning party, but because a third power got ticked off enough to let
the leader win. Usually this was not the result of any stellar
diplomacy by the leader, but rather by miserly treatment afforded the
little third. Never underestimate the effect that greed has on the
outcome of Diplomacy games. [McZet's Miser]"

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
