08 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: (matt): Ghug has won a scary number of games
08 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: (ghug): And yet here I am below the starting Elo.
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: This is terrifying
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: Even though we know where everybody starts, it still feels like I don't know what's going on.
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: Clearly we should all just agree to peace. This is too scary
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: Spoken like a true Austrian.
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: I don't know what you guys are complaining about. I can see a good sixth of the map!
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: I can see the headlines now: "Sailors cross the Southern Sea and discover a new land, called "L'Europe" by the locals"
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: What's a urope?
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: Anyone got a definitive answer on how visibility of orders works? What can we see of what other people order?
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: Peeking at the code for the variant, it appears that the order log is completely hidden until the game is finished. (https://vdiplomacy.com/dev/files_helper.php?&variantID=30&action=view&file=OrderArchiv.php&basedir=/classes/)
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: And also the SC count! (https://vdiplomacy.com/dev/files_helper.php?&variantID=30&action=view&file=panelMember.php&basedir=/classes/)
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: And even order status!!! (https://vdiplomacy.com/dev/files_helper.php?&variantID=30&action=view&file=panelMemberHome.php&basedir=/classes/)
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: This is going to be nuts.
10 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: Germany's hacking!
11 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: FYI I found this link talking more about the variant: http://www.dipwiki.com/index.php?title=Fog_of_War
11 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: I don't know if that page accurately describes the variant as implemented here. In particular, they seem to explicitly disagree about how far empty territories with a supply center can see.
11 Dec 18 UTC	Spring, 1901: hm, yeah you might be right. maybe the different looking screenshots should have been a giveaway. carry on..
18 Dec 18 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Y'all know you can click ready to fast forward the turn, right?
18 Dec 18 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Are we sure that works in this variant?
