BlackSunshine -> European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/13/2007 9:37:54 PM)
Looking at how much fun the 9 player diplomacy game is going to be, just wondering if anyone else would be interested in starting one? Anyone up for this? Here are the members currently playing, their countries, as well as email addresses.

jjdenver -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/14/2007 5:03:38 AM)
I'd play. Btw pls PM me when this is ready to start - I'm in for sure.

JAMiAM -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/14/2007 5:25:05 AM)
I'd like to play, but I won't be able to until the 29th due to several other commitments. If you're still pulling this together at that point in time, count me in. Otherwise, I'll have to catch the next one...

03_walk_alot -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/14/2007 10:10:49 AM)
Im In.

karonagames -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/14/2007 1:59:33 PM)
Me too please.

BlackSunshine -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/14/2007 3:32:28 PM)
Looks like there is a bit of interest. Jamiam, we'll see how the chips fall. Id love to have you involved.

seille -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/14/2007 4:25:16 PM)
Yes, but James is pretty busy already. First he has to kill many of my russians, march into Moscow and so on [:D]

wmcalpine -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/14/2007 6:18:35 PM)
I would like to play as well. Sign me up! Bill

mtvaill -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/15/2007 4:43:48 AM)
I'd like to play too. Like JAMiAM I won't be back from vacation until the 31st though.

chekers_MatrixForum -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/15/2007 6:27:43 AM)
I'm in, let me know!

karonagames -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/17/2007 3:58:53 PM)
Look's like we are still one short. Any takers??

yoggi75 -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/17/2007 6:44:29 PM)
Might be interested. Haven't played AT MP yet so I might need some help on the ins and outs of pbem-games. Are player factions going to be random?

BlackSunshine -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/19/2007 9:39:01 PM)
OK. Looks like we have our players. jjdenver jamiam 03_walk_alot biganorak blacksunshine wmcalpine mtvaill chekers yoggi75 Did I miss anyone? Let's kick this off after the holidays so Jam and mtvaill can participate. That gives us time to choose sides and agree on options. Quick question before we start. I currently use Nick's graphic mod. I ran into a problem starting a new random game with a PBEM opponent. He got error messages when trying to load, so I had to start with the default graphic settings. Anyone know what I need to do to set this up so that myself and anyone else who have the mod can use it, but those that dont can still play?

JAMiAM -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/19/2007 11:15:35 PM)
quote: ORIGINAL: BlackSunshine That gives us time to choose sides and agree on options. My recommendation is to play with the options that start the game at peace, as well as the ability to make peace later. This way, everyone has a couple of turns in which to set up their defenses, and make allies (or enemies). Some of the nations have it rough enough as it is, let alone have to handle a possible onslaught by 4 others on the very first turn.

yoggi75 -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/20/2007 12:14:43 AM)
Agree with JAMiAM to start at peace. For me the "diplomacy" part is what thrills me most so I hope you guys don't want to ensue restrictions in setting up pacts or other deals (or breaking them for that matter). Some questions: How do we decide on what faction we all play? There are obviously some nations that are harder than others. Any restrictions on reading possible AAR's from other factions? I haven't played around with this scenario - is it possible to transfer PP's to another faction - If so, it could provide for some interesting deals

I agree with yoggi75 on having no restrictions with respect to diplomacy. Other than the two round breather option at the game's start, that is. quote: ORIGINAL: yoggi75 How do we decide on what faction we all play? There are obviously some nations that are harder than others. Indeed, they are. I am open to suggestions. We could have a totally random drawing. Maybe by a trusted, uninvolved source drawing names out of a hat. Like Vic...[:D] Or, we could try some picking and choosing and seeing if there is any consensus? Or, taking a rough estimation of our various skill levels and trying to assign the tougher countries to the more experienced players? Anyone else have preferences, or other ideas? quote: ORIGINAL: yoggi75 Any restrictions on reading possible AAR's from other factions? This would be tough to enforce, since someone who wanted to peek, could do so without any trace. I'm of the mind that where AAR's exist, it is up to the players to not show too much information on their respective AAR's unless they are comfortable with revealing it. Or, perhaps, using the knowledge that what they show is perhaps somehow to their advantage...[;)] quote: ORIGINAL: yoggi75 I haven't played around with this scenario - is it possible to transfer PP's to another faction - If so, it could provide for some interesting deals Yes, by action card play. The screenshot below shows what options I feel the game should be started with. Agreement? Disagreement? [image]local://upfiles/10882/8AAC06CEEE674C5DAAEAC69E62E96575.jpg[/image]

BlackSunshine -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/20/2007 3:48:45 AM)
Options look like they will work for me JAMiAM. I like the idea of random country assignments, and will definately make for a fair contest.

wmcalpine -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/20/2007 5:17:32 AM)
I agree with those options as well. Random choice works for me as well. Bill

I don't know specifically, but it must be possible as the other diplomacy scenario AARs show different graphics for different players. Maybe the creator of that game can enlighten us?

mtvaill -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/20/2007 6:24:40 AM)
I'm good with random countries too. I can get equally slaughtered with any faction [:)]

chekers_MatrixForum -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/20/2007 6:28:40 AM)
Random sounds good to me.

03_walk_alot -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/20/2007 8:50:20 AM)
I am Ok with random. If I have to choose would pick "EyE Ties"

karonagames -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/20/2007 3:45:47 PM)
random is OK with me.

IRONCROM -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/21/2007 1:10:12 AM)
I would be willing to draw names for you fellas... If your looking for someone not actually in the game that is.

jjdenver -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/21/2007 4:13:37 PM)
Nice off Ironcrom - thanks - I think random is fine and Ironcrom drawing names seems like a great solution. Let's do eeeet :)

JAMiAM -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/21/2007 6:53:53 PM)

Let's do eeeet :) We certainly developed a strong consensus for random draw. I'm happy with IRONCROM's offer, as well. Any dissenters? By dissenters, I mean to say that you express your dissent before he assigns you to France...[:D]

IRONCROM -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/21/2007 9:34:58 PM)
Ok gentlemen, here are the results of my random draw. -Germany- biganorak -Italy- mtvaill -Balkins- blacksunshine -France- wmcalpine -Britian- checkers -Russia- jjdenver -Turkey- yoggi75 -Spain- 03-walk-alot -scandanavia- jamiam Good luck all... IRONCROM

wmcalpine -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/21/2007 10:49:21 PM)
Gulp!! The McAlpine family luck strikes again.... Bill Viva La France

yoggi75 -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/22/2007 2:06:27 AM)
You will all eat D�ner Kebab, even if I will have to force feed you [:)] Seriously though, thanks IRONCROM for setting us up. When do we start? May I suggest that we wait for all to upgrade to the 1.1 patch that should be arriving soon, so we don't risk to have any problems playing with different versions. Vic stated that all saves should be compatible, but better safe than sorry.

mtvaill -> RE: European Diplomacy multiplayer (12/22/2007 3:32:04 AM)
Hmm, Italy... time to start converting the Ferrari factories to tanks! Happy Holidays everyone. I look forward to starting this game when Jam and I are back from our vacations.
