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...
