New Game

[Harvey Steffke]

Because there seems to be some interest in it, I will host a new game of Diplomacy.

Hardcore time rules. 3 days per turn. I will post the exact time in EST when rules are due by. No exceptions to late submissions unless you have a really, really good excuse. I mean, like, had to beat off alligators with a pipe wrench type stuff. And even that is a bit iffy.

Sign up for countries here.

[Chrimigules]

DEUTSCHLAND

[Malliki Tosha]

TURKEY!

[Allot]

Switzerland and or Russia

[Malliki Tosha]

France? Austria? SERBIA?

[Leo Fenrir]

England.

[AryezturMejorkhor]

I'll play. Gimme Austria or England. But those seem taken. I'll have to make do with Italy.

[Malliki Tosha]

Austria is available. Should be better since I heard about someone wanting Italy.

[AryezturMejorkhor]

Okay, I can take Austria then.

[AryezturMejorkhor]

Hm...on second thought, it would be wise for me not to play. (*Realizing he hasn't done any work for a week and is thus already a week behind in work)

[Leo Fenrir]

No play! It takes almost no time at all.

[AryezturMejorkhor]

Perhaps next time, my Lord...

[CJ Miller]

I hereby claim the Empire of All Russias.

LONG LIVE THE TSAR!

[Malliki Tosha]

Russia seems to be taken by Allot.

[Dr Bjorn Olsen]

Norge

[CJ Miller]

Russia seems to be taken by Allot.

But their first choice was Switzerland.

[Malliki Tosha]

But Switzerland is not an option, therefore Allot gets Russia. And Norway is not an option either.

[Dr Bjorn Olsen]

United Kingdom

[Malliki Tosha]

CJ, France, Austria and possibly Italy are still open.

[CJ Miller]

France

ohoho

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

ITALIA

[Malliki Tosha]

AUSTRIA!

Any takers?

[Kaiser Leto III]

Belgium! Give me Belgium!

[Chrimigules]

You can be France... and TAKE BELGIUM?

[Harvey Steffke]

Best I can tell, we have:

Chrimigules: Germany
Malliki: Turkey
Allot: Russia
Bjorn: England
Maksym Hadjimehmetov: Italy

Leo Fenrir wanted England, but went on LoA and doesn't count.
AryezturMejorkhor was going to take Austria, but decided against it.
CJ Miller wanted France, but then a lot of stuff happened and he doesn't come around anymore so I think it's safe to cut him out.
Jonas wanted, um, Belgium. Apparently. Good luck with that.

So we have France and Austria/Hungary open.

Scott said he'd play if we need another, so that's sort-of six. Anyone else we can sham into this before everyone loses interest entirely?

[Nick Foghorn Leghorn]

France.

Gimme.

I'm bored.

[Harvey Steffke]

It's yours.

Next time I see Scott, I'll call him on this. Or if he sees this thread before I talk to him, he can say he's joining up. Either way.

[CJ Miller]

CJ Miller wanted France, but then a lot of stuff happened and he doesn't come around anymore so I think it's safe to cut him out.

And then I came around and want France back.

[Malliki Tosha]

CJ, take Austria.

[Harvey Steffke]

At this point I think it's safe to assume Scott's blowing us off.

Will you take Austria?
