06 Apr 23 UTC GG, nicely done Wales
06 Apr 23 UTC Not sure why Bristol decided they had such a grudge against me and gave ya all those scs... but ah well
06 Apr 23 UTC I didn't get it either. By doing so he might have prevented a solo and strengthened the position of the other powers against me. Bad luck...
06 Apr 23 UTC I think I acted reasonably. Maybe I bit off more than I could chew taking on both London and Wales simultaneously, but I never had aggressive intentions against London until they made it apparent they weren't going to let me keep Hampshire/Isle of Wight. If they had moved north against East Anglia instead of west against me I could have focused on Wales.

The real problem throughout the game were Merceyside and Up North. They were content to just do nothing but hold for a solid year which allowed Wales to grow unchecked.
06 Apr 23 UTC But yeah overall good game, especially Wales.
06 Apr 23 UTC Gg!

I think by the time I could’ve gone up against Wales, he was growing too strong for me to do anything, and I wouldn’t have been able to get to his SCs in a reasonable time frame. Also considering this is a PPSC game I was content to let Wales solo since he wasn’t overtly aggressive at me and combatting him would only get me fewer SCs (and actually, in my estimation, help Wales to solo faster).
06 Apr 23 UTC For my part attacking Merseyside would have only helped Wales. So we danced around before coming to an understanding.
East Anglias effort was sad to behold, but it needed to be removed before proceeding further south. Leaving a very narrow passage to assist or attack from.

Bristol's suicide on London simply paved the way for Wales to win. Spending a moment to defend may have seen assistance come from the north.
