16 Feb 19 UTC	Autumn, 1652: GameMaster: Spanish Habsburg voted for a Extend. If 2/3 of the active players vote Extend the the current phase will be extend by 4 days. Please consider backing this. If the majority is not reached by "Autumn, 1653" the votes will be cleared.
19 Feb 19 UTC	Spring, 1653: GameMaster: Per 2/3 majority vote the gamephase got extended by 4 days. (Voters: Hohenzollern / Bavarian Wittelsbach / Spanish Habsburg / Wettin)
25 Feb 19 UTC	Autumn, 1653: GameMaster: Spanish Habsburg voted for a Concede. If everyone (but one) votes Concede the game will end and the player _not_ voting Conceede will get all the points. Everybody else will get a defeat.
28 Feb 19 UTC	Well played sly; I love maps and the HRE at this period has delightfully insane borders ... so, although I need 2 browser windows open and an hour to work out what's happening I'll always play this brilliant, but unbalanced variant. The early rapport between the two Wittlesbachs was desperate news for me... Trouble was I could only try and outmanouvre he_he whilst watching the relentless march of the Prussians enforcing the anachronistic early unification of Germany whilst we fought like dogs over Ecclesiastic bones. But I did enjoy it!
28 Feb 19 UTC	btw, the 1 day turnaround is brutal ... and wouldn't a Fog of War version of this be better ... for a start the fortress centres would reflect the significance of these vital strongholds ...
28 Feb 19 UTC	yes, nice job, Sly -- I like this variant too, but maybe 1 1/2 days is better
28 Feb 19 UTC	1.5 days; noproc Sat, otherwise the same https://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=37631
28 Feb 19 UTC	great, I joined
28 Feb 19 UTC	Definitely had a bit of luck in this one, and then I was steamrolling away. It would have been hard to stop me in the last couple of years here without communications.
02 Mar 19 UTC	Very close - trying again with a longer lead time https://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=37656
