I don't believe you... prove it... post them here.
Why? Since when does a dipper need proof of anything?! WE HAVE A HERETIC!! BURN HIM!

Err hrrm. This is Maharajah's Diplomacy variant.
That would make me a Hindu...
No crosses please.
State Machine said:Piffle, enteties like BiB (and its many minions, including the State Machine) have long ago passed the Turing test...
Minions. That's what I need. Some minions would make life much easier. But good minions are so hard to find. I've had to settle for henchmen, and the occasional toady.

Unfortunately for you, everyone in the game has realized that:
1.) you made this variant and presumably have the most experience in it
2.) your webpage bears an article advocating Soloism (translation: you are not to be trusted)
3.) you (Gondwana) happen to be surrounded
4.) they do not wish to be your minion or henchman or toady

actually only two of the states are Hindu, the rest are Muslim...
however, the Hindus did burn the wives of deceased men... heck its still being practiced in some parts of India...

1. I know the map well. That will count for very little when you are dealing with anyone who has played the game at all. The rules are not much different from Standard, either, so not a big learning curve there.
2. And you are? ROFL!
3. Well, I am a central Power, so what? So are you.
4. I am not asking for them in-game. I want them in RL! :^)
P.S. Maybe you are just perturbed that *everyone* has told me about your plans. -[;^)

No, they think that is what *I* am for.
Ah...
The 'friendly' 'light hearted' 'jovial' banter that goes on prior to the first adjudication... :rofl:
When we strike out in the direction of those that profess to be our enemies and leave ourselves unguarded against those that have sworn their loyalty...
The next time we 'swear' is when we actually receive the adjudication
For readers who have never played PBEM Diplomacy - the game is already well underway. Already we have alliances, plots, plans, psyche wars, lies, betrayal and perhaps even a little romance...
It will all end in tears.

Well, the Soviet-era post-bots I used to sport (handed down from the BiB) are quite good, but they only, really achieve "toady" level of sophistication. There are "henchmen" level bots (vis Blade!), but they arn't totally reliable. There are flirtations with "minions", but sorry to say results have been very mixed - witness my self-expressioned being...David E. Cohen said:
Hmm. the second paragraph is often not too accurate in my case.
And win or lose, it never ends in tears for me, since I will have given it all I can.

Now, just who was it that was supposed to be surrounded? -[:^)))
A sweet little set of tactical problems for people to work out in Fall 1501. Gotta love it. :^)

My second favourite quote from the book.
