Who? Well, I guess that needs a spot of explanation. Allan B. Calhamer invented the game Diplomacy, which I expect some of you to have heard about it. I played it a lot in the past - both face to face and postally. In fact it's one of the few bard games that can be payed by post successfully. My set pretty much disintegrated. It was played a lot, and taken places for games and meets during the 1980s. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allan_B._Calhamer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplomacy_(game) |

Oh wow. We used to play Diplomacy during my college years. Or, rather, a bunch of us would gather at a friends house, drink some beer, swear up and down we'd support each other's endeavours before turning on each other as soon as it was advantageous. I won a lot. |
