Sorry, fellas, France has to take the Big Prize this turn. Truly goofy
effort.
Special Mention: Austria gets credit for continuing to try, in spite of
Turkey's inability to goof in the 'proper' ways. Turkey gets a stray point
for realizing the error of his way and giving up his attack on me. And Italy
MIGHT score big in the Fall, as recompense for not scoring this turn, if his
Spring moves have actually set up a wonderful goofy Fall.
--The Silly English K-nnnn-ighit!
Here are the results of the French jury:
Russia - 0 points. Building the waives was just okay in your case,
since you don't need the units. Still too aggressive. Now, if you
leave London and Munich in the fall you will score very big.
Austria - 0 points. Not up to your usual standards.
Germany - 1 point. Now your waive was goofy. +1/2 for Stp-Fin,
-1/2 for Rum-Sev (but if you go to Arm you will score very big).
England - 2 points. A nice random set of orders.
Turkey - 2 points. Panic!
Italy - 2 points. Supporting Tunis-Tyrrhenean made me laugh.

Your master's votes:
Spring 1904
GM: A0, E1, F1, G2, I2, R0, T1
Austria: Nice support for a absolutely impossible convoy. Otherwise
not very goofy. Again, you would have gotten that infamous 8th point.
England: To bad your umpteen proxy orders weren't put to use, eh?
Nice random moves anyway! Your move set reminds me of an alpha
prototype of a Diplomacy playing program which is happy just to
produce legal orders, no matter how useless.
France: I am as interested in the outcoming of your Iberian war as every-
body else should be. Will the Spa/Bre fraction succeed over the
Por/Gas fraction? It may all depend on whom Pie convoys to StP!
Germany: Big points for waiving that build! Your coastal round tour around
the Baltic Sea is also much to my liking.
Italy: Yeah! Supporting an *army* into a body of water is really great!
Seems my posting to r.g.d. about what the judge allows wasn't that
precise at all...
Russia: Well, waiving the builds was absolutely neccessary to not earn
you negative points this season (some players indicated that you
would have got them if possible). Nevertheless, I admire your
steadfast march west disregarding everybody else. The convoy order
for F Aeg also was mollifying (sp?).
Turkey: If nobody else is going to Syria, then at least you should,
right?
Hi all, have been too busy to concentrate the last few days (so to speak)
will get my votes off within a few hours.
Small point, votes are not supposed to be based on retreats/disbands/
builds/waives etc (gm note from weeks back) .... so ypu may as well
hand out the negative points to Russia |||||||||||||||
Tee-hee!

Seriously, folks, there is a method to this madness. For as
the great Bones said, "Damn it Jim, I'm a doctor, not a Diplomat!"
Strange events are afoot in the great nation of Austria. The
ArchDuke has instructed me to use this medium of communication to ask
his friends to be patient, to trust in his wisdom, and to turn off
your lights after you leave.
If you think all of these broadcasts are annoying, just think
- I'm receiving three copies of each!

A shot rang out in the Austrian capital of Casablanca this
morning. The esteemed leader of Austria, known to his fans
affectionately as "Freddie," was gunned down by the local German High
Command Officer, Major Strasser.
Yes, FREDDIE'S DEAD! (A nightMair on ELM ST., part V?)
Captain Renault immediately issued an order to "Round up the
usual suspects." Viktor Lazlo, Rick Blaine, and Sam were all sent to
jail, leaving the Cafe Americain under the unsteady hands of Hans the
Old Guy.
Will Austria/Africa fall into Chaos? Will this Aberration be
tolerated by the world community? OR will citizens of Youngstown,
Ohio, rise in rebellion? Will any of us ever feel Pure, ever again?
If only Nicollo Machiavelli were here, all would be well.
World leaders are asked for their forbearance, until this
situation can be resolved.

What we miss here is the fact that the streets were Crowded with people
who suspected J.R. Loeb9 to be the assassin. This was a Chromatic experience
for all Romans! An austrian Standard Gunboat is currently chasing suspects...
rusky votes...
2 votes to each of the mini powers for holding on well with
interesting moves. 1 for Austria for almost getting the convoy right|

What I want to know is why Freddie signed on as an observer/alternate
when he could have just as easily done a 'broadcast grey'? Stupidity?
Or is there a more sinister reason?

Perhaps just goofiness?
My votes for S'04:
A: 1 Mainly for the NAF support.
E: 1 Interesting overall move.
F: 2 The overall move was good
G: 2 Not too goofy, but just the fact of having only units makes it
hard to be goofy -- I should know!
R: 0 Still can't see what you are up to and the current moves are land
grabs.
T: 1 Doing the ol' "move back home" goofiness, eh?
MajorDomo
BTW: I've decided that you need a lot-o-units too be goofy ... so adventuring
I will go.

Stupidity! I declare war upon you, Dino!
Oops, I forgot, I'm dead. Guess I'll have to make a trip to
Transylvania to see my cousin Vlad.
Trust in the spirit of Freddie. There is a reason, both goofy and
sinister, why I do what I do.
Let's just say I don't want to sign on as Austria right now - I have a
litttle project in the works!

Freddie's Ghost
Freddie, please ally with me against France.
Freddie, I understand France is trying to get you to ally with him.
Please ally with me instead.
France
Freddie, please ally with me against Russia.
Freddie, please ally with me against Italy.
Anybody figured out what I'm doing yet?
Freddie
Trying to get your moves in?
BZZT. Try again. Look at the listing. My orders ARE IN. (well, sort
of...)
Freddie
Ack. d*nm. Missed the deadline for goofy votes, too...
Orders are in now. *SIGH*
Sincerely,
>>>> Diplomacy game goofy is waiting for Austria's orders.
Oh Freddy! Where are you?
MajorDomo
I am in the middle of negotiations with our esteemed GM to
advance the grace period to today. If he is still on line, things
should proceed apace.
Deliberately CD'ing might not be considered goofy, but I have
more in mind. I'll explain later.
To the observers: please don't steal Austria when I CD.
I'll submit orders within minutes of the CD.
Freddie
Folks, this grace reduction is agreed upon by the Austrian player,
as she wants to test something. She may pay a harsh penalty for doing
so however.
Robert
Adjustments
Yo, it really worked. Congrat's, Freddie!
It worked!
*dance*
Anybody figure out what I was doing yet?
I'll 'xplain shortly, but I want to see if anyone can guess.
Freddie
p.s. Hmm...looks like there are Italians all over Austria. Oh well,
c'est la guerre. I always preferred Africa, anyway.

GM's goofy votes for F 1904
GM: A3, E0, F2, G1, I0, R0, T1
Austria: Great new way to have no orders processed. Definitely goofy!
England: Again your umpteen proxy orders weren't put to use, sob.
Otherwise, not very inspiring.
France: Great show! Every unit helps the poor Austrian expedition army
in NAf!
Germany: Coastal round tour around the Baltic Sea continues. Armenia also
is a strange place for the only German army to be.
Italy: Nice preparation for max. goofiness next year. This time however:
No points.
Russia: Go West! For continuing your path merciless without listening to
any comments: 1 point.
Turkey: This time, you're the one who would get that 8th point if I had it.

A lot of bagels. Mostly because I've seen goofier, and I wanted to
give Germany a few bonus points for sticking to his plan to move to
Syria. France's orders struck me as quite humorous. Esp. considering
the broadcasts. Russia's moves could earn a big bonus if I ever
figure out what is going on. Italy's present move was not goofy, but
I can appreciate his need for more forces. I wonder what the English
proxies were?
F.F.
rusky votes
Austria +1 (for the move)
Austria +1 (for the new idea)
Austria +1 (for the f.....g complexity of arranging it)
France +1 (not really worth 1 BUT i owe you a few fractions)
Germany +1 (for the position ... actually only about 0.75)
Germany +1 (for persisting with only 2 units)
Italy +1 (for getting nowhere really)
Turkey +0 (for getting nowhere in a more normal manner)
England +0 (for getting nowhere with more units)

Wah!

I'm going East. Does that count?
MajorDomo
BTW: A: 1 I'm still confused on what you did.
E: 1 Yes?
F: 1 Nice failed supports.
G: 1 Going back to the Fatherland, eh?
R: 1 Westward ho?
T: 2 Fleets retreat! or is that fleets forward!
