Funny, I never play to win. I play for my own objective.

That objective does not include winning and pwning? :P
The above is accurate 25% of the time, truthful 50% of the time, and facetious 100% of the time.

I play to lose, but I never try my hardest  to accomplish that goal.

That goal has a funny way of accomplishing itself, though. :(

This game is turning out very well. I wonder what will happen. Hopefully the alliances will turn out relatively balanced.

It's only turning out well if you're playing Austria or Germany.  All the other powers are in a lot of trouble right now, but it will be hilarious if Austria's supporting Turkey just causes them to lose later.

Who was Turkey in BM 3? I feel sorry for him.

Did the third game get off the ground? I only ever joined BM 3 and BM 4, but I thought a BM 5 had been created at some point.

I was Turkey the second game and was ganked early on. I therefore am glad that Turkey is doing well.

If you start another game, count me in! I have been playing on the internet lately. It's a pretty fun game.

I played loads of Diplomacy in the 90's. Got third place in the Swedish Championships one year. Played Turkey on the final table which never tend to win against experienced players nor get eliminated. Apart from my third place I recieved a diploma for the most successful Italy during the tournament and for the best executed backstab.

As I recieved three diplomas and the winner only one I to this day maintain that I was the true champion of diplomeacy...
