I wonder why you chose paraguay...

No, thanks, dear Paraguay. We also can read stats:
http://www.vdiplomacy.net/stats.php?variantID=45

But I could join a new one, if you make it Random Countries.

I think nobody is joining because the stakes are too high...

I think nobody is joining because he picked up the best country...

Unballanced maps with choose your country are usually not a good choice for high stake games (especially if the best country is already picked).

The only reason I would join a game like this is if I had a ridiculous number of points.

Anon or not, my guess is this post was started by... RoxArt!

Because not the anon tag will not be removed after the game is canceled we'll never know for sure... :)

until there are fool people joining unbalanced maps with choose your country, there will be cunning people trying this job

what map would you like for a high stakes game then?

Classic?

Noone, if it has to be "choose your country". Not even Migraine, because high stakes games got a magnet for meta/multis.

"Random Countries" would sound better. Even better if it's non-Anon. Any map.

i can open karibik random too i dont mind (is it really so unblanced? im not sure bout that, actually i won with different countries on that map....)
however we could just go on classic
I prefer anon because players enter the game with no "prethoughts"....

Dear Anonymous.
I do agree with your last statement. I prefer anon too for the same reason.

What's inside the brackets...mmm...let me see...

"is it so unbalanced?"
So why did you chose the best performing country?
Paraguay's rating is far higher than the second country's.
Why not Cuba or Venezuela?

"actually i won with different countries on that map".
This is the list of the variant's winners, in chronological order:
gantz
DanFaraderp
tricky
Joe1966
Geronimo
Sweens18
tricky
The Ambassador
RoxArt
Tadar Es Darden

tricky is the only one who won twice, but he's not here since February.
I assume you're not a multi but you're simply lying.

Dear Guaroz (am I right?)

I looked at the map and wanted to play paraguay mainly because i like corners... i didn't look at any stats...
however I think I did another game, wasn't there 1 time games got lost due to a server crash? if not I may remember wrong....

Further which map should I open for you to join a high stakes game?

This thread is a typical misuse of the Anon feature.
I'll remove the Anon from all posts that did not belong to the game announcement and are instead discussion.

I believe this whole thread was a "misuse". If the thread-opener used the purposed threadID=28853, then all the following comments would have been un-anonymous.

I wonder why people below 100 even talk here...

Btw I would say maybe modern diplomacy II would be a good choice for this if more than 7 players (classic)?
