GA Omar Bradley, while it's always a good idea to remind the GM about a mistake or an omission, it's also a good idea to be polite at the same time. Your post isn't exactly rude but it's kinda pushy in the tone. You need to calm down and point out something to the GM and rest assured that the GM would correct his mistakes in all good time. Jean-Luc Picard isn't the type to be irresponsible enough to ignore you. When it is brought to his attention, he is going to attend to it.
For all people... Being patient does helps ease out a situation. I can understand why a player would feel panic and urgency to correct a mistake that left him in a real bad spot. But the best move is not jabbing the big red button repeatedly while calling 'code red'. You know what I mean? Just make a small mention to the GM either by post or by PM, and Bob's your uncle.

Wiseman deso speaks! But yeah all jokes aside you're right. |

GA Omar Bradley: That was a reference. If you know your Home SC's and I know your home SC's (which I do), then that's enough. I corrected it anyway. Please use PM in the future
Desophaeus, you've been a valuable resource as always

Ekhhemm... In Jogja, Picard.. Is it Jakarta time or another zone? Jogja, short for Yogyakarta, is on the same island as Jakarta. Hence, they're in the same time zone. Sorry for being rude to you. |

Hmmm, looks like I sent my moves to wrong person haha Not moves. Builds. You build an army or a fleet in your Home SC's. NMR is serious, and may result in an ejection if you rack up too many. Either way, the NMR (simply, you have not built your units, just your two 1898 units) is irreversible. |

I compared my previous game (also my first ever diplomacy game) to this one and in both I had A-H. The results are pretty good! (Though anyone else can judge it better then my own self of course (as I can be biased)). Last game I was giving out stupid orders like sending Army Vienna to Bohemia (which makes no sense, there's nothing there) while this game I gambled (as well as precisely calculated my moves) and got 4 decent SCs AND a bargain-able position in the game! Obviously I haven't learnt everything myself, there was Desophaeus in the last war who helped us all a lot, then we have Jean-Luc Picard here in this one as well. Desophaeus, I can assure you that diplomacy won't be leaving a bad taste in anyone's mouths with you all around. Exploring this new game has been a great experience with you comrades!. And don't be confused with the last line, I'm not leaving  |

I love how Italy has Marseilles as a home SC but doesn't even control Rome  |

I love how Italy has Marseilles as a home SC but doesn't even control Rome Depending on the situation, that actually can be more beneficial to have a broader base of operations while some things can be covered in-between the headquarter sites, so to speak in military terms. One negative in this game is, if one home SC falls and the other SCs are dispersed away from it, it becomes much more difficult to properly recover that lost SC. But that depends heavily on troop dispersion and composition anyway. For example, as England, it is less benefiting to have all 3 "normal" homes plus Belgium than to have only 2 on the island as true homes plus doubled down in the mainland, two additional homes: Belgium and Holland. That was what I would have aimed for. It's too late now so it's safe for me to make this observation in public without interfering the game. |

I have my reasons... I wanted to ask you that! now now people, its his country so we should let him govern it right? Just take a look at my country, Austria isn't even a part of the empire but is included in the name (by now the country can be called The Kingdom of Hungary and Slavonia). |
