Stupid trivia of the day: only 14 land spaces on the board aren’t coastal. Of those 14, 13 are adjacent to coastal spaces (and hence might be taken with the help of a fleet cutting support somewhere). Only in Bohemia are you completely safe from the wrath of navies.

Jonathan, the game two map doesn’t seem to have updated; it’s still the same as the S05 map.
Oops! It’s fixed.
Well, looks like I’m history. Good luck to everyone, and thanks for kicking my ass!
Aha! I have lured other nations onto my home ground for a trap of fromage!
[sub]…Or something like that[/sub] 
I just noticed that Game 1 had 16 fleets and 18 armies as of your question. You game is even more “fleety” than ours. So I suppose based on the available sample size, the answer is no.
Ah, I see that Russia’s reward for helping to stomp me is to get burned in his turn by Germany. Whatever the Russian is for schadenfreude, that’s what I’ve got.
French A bur retreats to par.

The SDMB1 map isn’t updated for Winter 1904. Is the March 15 deadline still in force?
Game 2 is up in the air too. Hopefully I didn’t miss a message or anything. Did JC win the lottery and abandon us?
No, the curse of SDMB Diplomacy claimed another victim and I’ve been through (minor) surgery over the last week. I feel miserable.
I’m telling you, children, this game KILLS.
Minor surgery…that’s what my stabs will be called from here on in.
I’m back. Weary but back.

Get well soon, JC, and thanks for everything.
Rub some dirt on it, walk it off.
JC well, I’m glad to hear that it was at least minor. However, docs call all sorts of crap minor. I’m glad you’re on the mend.
