Thanks guy. However I am merely the coach of the team, not playing myself. But we have now advanced to 4th place! Hurray.

I wonder if there are any diplomacy going on during this long break we have. Absolut, perhaps you want to join the good side instead of being some kind of Darth Vader serving under the evil emperor? ;)

And FJ, do you read this? Has Muli given a 100% sure YES to take over after you?

I think it is to late for him. We don't know the power of the dark side.

But according to the prophecy he is the one who will bring balance to the force. He will finish off King john, eventually.

Thanks Absolut. We fell to 6th place and one of the team members behaved so badly vs his partner that we decided to send him home. We put him on an aeroplane back to Sweden and play on with 5 players. Bridge is a pair's game, three pairs in a team of which two pairs plays at the same time. A match lasts for just a little less than 3 hours.

We have played in the European Championships and similar since the early 1930s and as far as we know this has never happened before. However the captain and myself were of the same mind. Home he goes this bastard.

So, what has this to do with our game? Well, in a way a lot. You know I have been some kind of disciplinarian in this game (the first one I am GM in) and I have been very the strict about the importance of being nice, of all of us adhering to our explicit rule for being nice. So you can see, it is the same thing with ToS as with the bridge team. If I am put in charge you can expect little mercy if you misbehave. It is a matter of purifying the "team". ;)

BTW, presently it is Italy 474, Norway 437, Ireland 433, Iceland 427, Sweden 421 and Holland 409. First 6 qualify for the WC in Shanghai next year.

Sorry to hear that Daniel, although youre still qualified for the WC as youre on 5th place now?

When he misbehaved, was there fists involved or was it namecalling? :)

NEW POWER SYSTEM IMPLEMENTED

As yuou may have seen the new power point system has been constructed by our dear friend Tonio. All hail him!

The points are thus recalculated and now it looks like this (quoted from post 1)

Code:
      ALBANIA  BRABANT  HELVETIA LIVONIA  MOLDAV.  PORTUG.  NAPLES*  SAXONY  SCOTLAND  SKÅNE
      RA  PP   RA  PP   RA  PP   RA  PP   RA  PP   RA  PP   RA  PP   RA  PP  RA  PP    RA  PP

1662   5  62    8  31   --  --    4  76    3  81    1 109   --  --    2  91   7  44     6  47

1680** 4  92    9  59   --  --    5  91    3 112    1 127    7  71    2 119   6  74     8  68

As you can see all teams remain at the same position in the race.

I will rewrite the power point rules in post 4 as soon as I get time. For the time being the new rules can be found in post 1 of this thread http://www.europa-universalis.com/forum/showthread.php?t=254761&page=1

There may still be more changes done to the system but as always we will only implement changes if all agree. Tonio has suggested that the cap for naval size should be increased from a present value of 20. He also suggested that the points given for army and naval size should not be dependent on the DP slider choices the nation has done (which increases/decreases the price for soldiers and ships) but being based on what the value had been had the sliders been at a middle position. Your views on these two items are as always wellcome.

---------

With three matches left of the bridge championship it is awfully close now.
1. Italy 606, 2. Norway 548, 3. Holland 539, 4. Sweden 538, 5. Ireland 533, 6. Iceland 527, 7. Poland 521. All in all 32 nations competing. First 6 qualifies for the WC in Shanghai and I wanna go to Shanghai! This afternoon we meet Scotland and then we have Holland (world champs in 1993) in the evening and tomorrow in the last match (both matches will be transmitted on the internet) we will face Iceland (World champs 1991) in a what looks like a very crucial match. We have the toughest last three matches of all the top teams.

Conerning the scandal with the player sent home I can only say that you my friends who have seen so many quarrels in our community can well imagine what the actual player told his partner, both personally and to 3rd parties. Bridge is a partnership game, you play together with another person and your way of communicating with him is quite limited, so it is very important to correctly interpret your partner's messages to you (as well as understanding what your opponents do). Thus comments like "do you not understand that if so and so then so and so and thus it was obvious for you what to do.... stupido" (the last word perhaps only implicated... :rolleyes: ) are not not that uncommon. In a way one can say that to play bridge means you learn a lot of human shortcomings. BTW, in yesterday's Daily Telegraph (not the part published on the web unfortunately) there was a little written about this incident. It is not an everyday occurence in our world that a captain sends home one of his players.

And Aladar, although I never wrote a 6 page document, :D I have written a little on two web sites, the site of the Swedish federation and incidentally at a Danish site (the player sent home plays a lot of bridge in Denmark). Here is a link to the Danish site. http://www.netbridge.dk/bridge/discuss/treplies.asp?message=2650&all=True As you can see there are a lot of morons writing posts but as well some intelligent ones.

Daniel, besides i suggest that putting the system to money modifier like VM=500 for most things means benefit for naval countries. So land nations suffer.

Italy seems to be pretty far ahead, is it possible to catch up with them?
Why are they on top btw? You should be leading the pack, not following it. :p

Nonetheless, I trust that you will coach the Swedes to victory. :)
