15 Oct 21 UTC	Spring, 1906: GameMaster: England voted for a Draw. If everyone votes Draw the game will end and the points are split equally among all the surviving players, regardless of how many supply centers each player has.
23 Oct 21 UTC	Autumn, 1908: GameMaster: Game was extended due to at least 1 member failing to enter orders and having an excused missed turn available. This has un-readied all orders.

03 Nov 21 UTC	Well played all! I made some serious errors those final two turns attempting a solo, and after losing Munich it was clear I had no shot. If I'd had Bohemia support Munich instead of Vienna, and not been so inept around the English supply centers, things might have turned out differently. Obviously I was a late arrival to this game, but excellent job by both France and Turkey at the end.
03 Nov 21 UTC	idt the odds of getting a solo there were very high, barring France being gloriously inept. Though, that last turn did raise some eyebrows for me lol.
03 Nov 21 UTC	Well, I'm just a simple man, trying to make my way in this difficult continent. :-) Was waiting a long time for hostilities in the Black Sea to commence. When they did a draw became a possibility. Happy with the outcome!
03 Nov 21 UTC	I think the solo odds were decent - like I said, if I’d protected Munich and made better choices around England, things might have gone differently. I could’ve held the line from Sevastopol to Munich forever, if I hadn’t gotten greedy attacking Burgundy. All I needed was the 3 English supply centers to win, and that was certainly within the realm of possibility. All credit to France for outguessing me with the fleet in Clyde twice in a row, and to Turkey for providing the support into Munich that ultimately forced the draw.
03 Nov 21 UTC	ye but if France didn't bounce engchan for no reason and either just pushed in or let me add the fleets through to supplement the line, there's no way you get the english centers idt
03 Nov 21 UTC	You’re absolutely correct, and in a full press game I would have no chance... I was counting on you and France continuing to get your circuits crossed without being able to communicate.
03 Nov 21 UTC	Makes sense, probably only read half of the message from your fleet withdrawing to Tuscany. Wasn't too keen on leaving both Brest and London exposed. MAO to NAO would have been a clearer message. Perhaps.
03 Nov 21 UTC	I stayed in Tuscany in case I needed to move to Piedmont to prevent Russia moving into it if he got into Tyrolia.
