SDMB Diplomacy Game 1092 “-GRY”

In answer to your question, Shibb…“probably.” I was trying to keep a journal of my endeavors, and I was doing quite well on the “getting time to write stuff” end of things. Unfortunately, I was not as good on the “not being way too verbose” end of things. I’ve written longhand around twenty pages and stil haven’t gotten past the third day of a ten day trip.

As soon as I cut the thing down and send an obnoxiously exhaustive email to my friends and relatives, y’all will be getting a synopsis.

Oh, and Amsterdam was my favorite city. Just so you know, Mr Jass.

Must have been the cafes.

nah - he’s probably just a fan of tulips

Could be, but the tulips aren’t out yet, are they?

He seems the type that would gently uncover and stare at the naked bulbs.

to be honest mate thats probably what we’ll be doing in a few turns to pass the time in exile…

It was the canals. The beautiful canals. And the bikes. Those are fun too.

you could at least have had the decency to fall in - then i could have got back into this game :wink:

You could go fall into 1099 Bobble.

I post here for two reasons.

Partially because I want to remind everyone that moves are due in five hours time and that this looks to be a great year.

Mostly because I want to bump this thread.

Tulips should be out by now. I’ve got three blooming in my yard and there’s neither a canal nor a wooden shoe in sight.

Should be a good year indeed, Soupo. Actually, you might want to pull those units out of Turkey, because I’m athinkin’ you might be needing them back home, IYKWIM. I bet your pal Austria would be more than happy to help you convoy the army out of there - it’s not like he’s using that fleet for anything important :wink:

Still missing 2 sets of orders, I’ll adjudiucate as soon as I can.

I dunno about tulips in Holland. Ours are just sprouting here, and we’re much further south. We can ask Coldfire if they’re blooming, I guess, if he’s back in Clogboy country already.

And I’m actually using that fleet to give cruises around the Greek Islands to raise money for my troops AND raise morale.

Just sent my orders to Omnimax, sorry for the delay. Just one more set to get in, I’d guess.

Crap. I’m on it. Nothing is worse than coming back from my weekend and forgetting to get my orders in.

Sorry for the delay, all.

So that’s where my few remaining troops keep sneaking off to.

I’ll be having words with them…

Coming BACK from your weekend? You do realize you posted this on Thursday morning, don’t you? Is this some sort of Russian calendar thing?

now if only he’d have one of those revolution things…

Nah, he’s years away from that. He’s just now descending into decadence.
