Problem is, if he tells a replacement about the nation & pretender, then he has to keep track of whom he has told, because if the player says "No", then they'll know that nation and the player who did take over the nation.

It's things like this that make the logistics of a 17 player anonymous game a nightmare, since someone is always needing a temporary substitute or a replacement player. Many thanks to Pasha and Alneyan for doing it.

Ah! But the dynamic is quite fun to watch as the "disinterested" but omniscient host.

Hi Shovah!

Please let me know by the end of today (Friday) if you're still interested, because I'd like to fill the empty slot by tomorrow. Feel free to send me an email. (See above).

Pasha

Ok. Given that shovah has not checked in here for days, I will assume that he is no longer interested.

Ygorl! You're up, if still interested. I will send you a PM.

You should rate the nation which is open:

Is it cool or lame, rate it from 1 to 10!

But, every nation's a 10! Except mine, which is an 11.

No, seriously, correlating with graphs you could then glean estimates on who's who (assuming you could guess on how Pasha rated the nations): specifically, which nation is being played by a sub who supposedly lacks information and other assets a regular player has, thus making him a prime target for aggression.

The nation up for grabs provides an excellent opportunity to squish Griffin and Jurri.

I so want to cut Jurri up! Besides, I already know what nation he is playing, so that would be perfect. Give'em to me!

(Warning: I am not being serious - as is usual)
