Diplomacy

[Ranior]

Unfortunately gunboat is almost certain to be broken for some of us--even without us truly trying to. Kevindola, scorp, and myself have played far too much CoN and know each other's writing and posting styles too well to truly hide from each other. It's a near certainty that after a few back and forth messages we'll be all but certain as to the other's identity.

Still I do agree and appreciate the rules you've laid out and trying to enforce that style. CoN occassionally does something similar with Masquerade rounds which are widely regarded as some of the most fun and interesting since all players are given fake HSers accounts to use for the duration of the CoN. That way you don't neccessairly know who is who. (Although players like scorp and myself often are instantly deduced as our posting styles continue to be too discernable among the CoN vets).

Anyhow excited to be playing another game. Let's see if I can avoid first out this time :P

Yes, like I said, I completely understand that sometimes Gunboat is broken. That, alone, was not the problem.

Carry on.

Btw, may I ask who all is in this game? I know kevindola, Ranior, wriggz, Kinseth. But who is the last one?

Thanks.

[marrowick]

I'm in the game.

[kevindola]

Just as a reminder. The deadline is set in GMT. So I believe the deadline is tomorrow evening.

[Dad_Scaper]

It's been very quiet, fells. Send some press.

[Kinseth]

Can we make deadlines more in line with US time zones?

[Dad_Scaper]

I'll look into it. For now I'll push this S1901M deadline to early next week, because that's what I normally do for S1901M anyway. Nobody asked and we had a full week so I hadn't done it here, but now is the time.

edit: Done. Now it's Monday evening. Get busy, fellas.

[Dad_Scaper]

^ You may ignore this post. I'd forgotten that in the last game, I flipped the switch to see all partial press, meaning the press you send to each other. In this game, I haven't done that yet. So all I'd seen were the broadcasts.

Carry on.

[kevindola]

So if I am ignoring the previous post, does that mean the deadline is reverting back to tonight?

[Ranior]

I think he meant that we can ignore the post about how it's been very quiet and we should all send some post. But I agree it would be good to get clarification.

[Dad_Scaper]

No, I'm leaving the deadline. Ranior is correct.
