[QUOTE=Pollux Oil] I suppose I’ve just had bad luck with dice as well as bad luck with the people I’ve played with. In a couple recent non-Doper games I’ve played with idiots who, given the option of a) crippling me, somebody who is doing moderately well but in no shape to win at the moment, or b) crippling somebody else who has the best position in the game at the moment and will win unless something is done, and both outcomes will give them approximately the same position, they choose to attack me. Then the person from B goes on to win the game. :smack: [/QUOTE] Yup. I used to play Risk on Facebook but the idiocy and total lack of diplomacy made me quit even though I did pretty well on average. ---

I have a non-private doubles Waterloo game which could use some players: 2872051 – No password Waterloo is a trip – very odd attacking and bonuses, but fun. Bombardment is cool. anyrose, I couldn’t find 2881000 at all. ---

I’ve invited a few non-dopes to play some of our private games – Yebegoon is my son, for example. I don’t see a problem if you want to fill up those games, anyrose. I think it’s cool we have our own little private games, but I’d rather play them than see them dropped for lack of interest. ---

New maps, new games. It’s time to have some more private games – I figure playing with your friends is a great way to learn the new maps. All are 6-player games, standard, sequential, no fog, flat rate, chained.
