The pigeons have achieved superiority. First, DiplomacyWinks. Tomorrow, the world. Also I like how I'm credited as Oliver Lugg from Oliver Lugg.
This has to be the event of the year, no, the event of the decade! Can't wait for it to start!
Excellent, a report from our favorite Ezzio.
Has anyone made a strategy guide for Diplomacy Winks yet? Seems like it might be a worthy enterprise.

With the depth of strategy there is to this game, it would have to be at least 4 hours. No idea what channel would even make that long of a video...

@@DiploStrats Yeah, for diplomacy the longest content I've ever seen was ~5mins and that was about as in-depth as you can get. For diplomacywinks though it would be possible to see at least a 10 hour video detailing just potential opening strats. You'd have to cover material from at least an intro physics course to really even start to understand basic strategy.
Ah yes, a totally fair and honest game with no bias whatsoever. This CaptainMeme fellow sure is a great player, I'm sure he'll go far.

Greetings Sploack, I see you also follow DiplomacyWinks. Personally I find the seriousness and highly competitive nature of this variant really compelling. I understand why it isn't as well known though. Many DiplomacyWinks players have had to seek medical help for the serious mental strain this variant can cause.

@@Zogerpogger Indeed. Even the finalists weren't exempt from sudden medical evaluation and sometimes squalification because of it.

Honestly enjoyed this variant and it made for some very interesting commentary. Great video, clearly a lot of effort put into it too!
the etzio block (46:48) is such a phenomenal tone break from managing expectations of the diplomacy winks play and commentary. And theres so many damn layers, you dont know where the units are then theres one unit but that unit is turkey which controls england, and englands in turkey and france is in austria but no one else is putting down units then turkey holds tunis, such chaos (plus he's calling 6020 2020 for seemingly no reason) wait france isnt in AUSTRIA? Also at the end he's just clicking through like the games over, but those orders did go in. theres more going on of course, just one hell of an execution
This is so well done I can see the joke sailing above non-vigilant heads
This was very fun. I especially enjoyed the Judge’s judgements. Thank you everyone involved.
Scintillating NAF -->TUN action!
The Edi Birsan portraits are fantastic XD

Edi Birsan? Edi is a highly serious and experienced Diplomacy player, but even he probably doesn't have what it takes to compete in Diplomacy Winks. I understand why you might think that he is on the same level as Katie Grey and Ghug though.
46:45 Hey! Those are my moves! Am I doing the right thing there Ezio?

I think there were a couple mistakes there, you really need to be bolder with the moves and not hold quite as often. But it's really easy to say that when backseating - I'd imagine the pressure ingame makes that far more difficult!
Poker face Markus, keep it together!
Gotta love the country balls
Why is EU4 listed as the game? Also I love the dry style of acting as if this game is as serious as Diplomacy....which it is! DiplomacyWinks has the potential to ruin friendships! Also just commenting a bunch as I watch for fun, and also for the alg

KZread decided that this video is of EU4 by itself. Figured I'd leave it as that to bait in Paradox players :P
Katie Grey seems like they would have no idea what they were doing if asked to play normal diplomacy...they probably wouldn't even know what a Lepanto is
I'm only 3 minutes in, but coming here straight from watching the 10 hour Media Wars video is... yeah haha

LMAO DOCTORS NOTE (god I'm making a fool of myself with all of these comments) Edit: The Struggle is real for Karthik trying to maintain a straight face
If Turkey had just moved back to Tunis one more time they would have had the win...too bad too bad
Wait... you don't actually play the game, just send it to a panel of experts!? You guys should play the game as a gunboat game after the initial wink phase.

It's pretty simple to calculate! Just take your PFR and FPSR, divide by the FR, and multiply by 10. Then add your TsrBGhP Rating and normalise according to a poisson distribution centered around Tanya's TsrBFhP - then throw that all out and just ask Tanya.
