Re: Diplomacy
I wrote this post because of what several people have pointed out here. If you play a game like Diplomacy or DOM II by its implied objective, that is one winner, then the game plays out fun for everyone, and no hard feelings in the end. (Having trouble thinking of the right way to express that, you would have to have played Diplomacy to understand) But when people consistently make teams and just don’t tell you the game gets old fast. I am all for team games and would happily play a DOM II Team game but I would know it in the beginning.
That is where I have a problem with people who say they keep all agreements always. I would much rather play in a game where everyone is trying to win and keep the big boy down.
Oh and Zapmiester, does diplomacy and so do I, and how I act in one game is completely different from how I will act in the other. I keep 95% of my agreements that are not with the big boy. He should always be watching his back. But I don’t form teams and the leader should expect to be attached by everyone until he is not the leader anymore.
