Heck even ceding some of the provinces West of the Suez Canal would be just as good of a option too. But since Red already made up his mind it's too late for that now.

I think he's referring to giving Red a single chunk of land instead of multiple pieces unconnected.
I may be wrong though.

I don't think it's that because I did carve out one big chunk... I wasn't giving him a bunch of unconnected pieces.

Unfortunately, I didn't. I guess I wasn't controlling the USSR, despite being told I was. The current player, Serj I think, took it over and the UN and he worked together to break it up. I had nothing to do with it other than trying to in the first place and proposing the UN.
Alright Balkans, my old friend, you don't like a healthy dose of sweets... well then maybe something more bitter, like lead, is to your liking.
What in the world is Serj doing?
Serj must had been smoking some serious shit when he did his turn.
For the record, me and the Romans are practically overseeing the safety of France currently, as France has decided to become an anarchist nation.
Just so you all know, the grorious reader of The People's Republic of Korea is stepping down. I'm not gonna play this anymore. It was fun though!
Damn it Wulfe.
We need more players.
INVITE YOUR FRIENDS!
STOP QUITING!
We can all agree that wizard can make a helluva comic out of Serj's turn, right?
Yes.
Also stop quitting guys.
So guys, did I do any better?
Working on map, unless Face wants to.
Serj just told me he quiting.
Serj has quit.
Goddamn it.
[editline]19th February 2012[/editline]
Well
Timing.
This was the point of our occupation of France. As far as the map is concerned, France is now split between Rome and myself. It will be official next turn, likely, but for now it's under our colors.
[editline]19th February 2012[/editline]
How much of Mexico is taken this turn?
I think the turn said Mexico was el-gono.
There's still pockets of stiff resistance scattered about. Not for long.
Shit
Forgot the music.
[editline]19th February 2012[/editline]

[editline]19th February 2012[/editline]
Also, did we make no strides in Madagascar? Me and arabia.
You never said that you invaded and Arabia didn't do much either, he said invade but no progress was really made.
