The Lights are going out all over Europe..

Did Europe not pay its power bill?

To make our Diplomacy game move along nicely, I made a utility for choosing sides in a Diplomacy game. It's a cyberboard gamebox named "Dipchooser", basically just a virtual grid you place randomly drawed cards on.

Here's the grid.



I assign each player a number:

Player 1 - Mike Reed

Player 2 - Rob Winslow

Player 3 - Joe Steadman

Player 4 - Chris Wimbrow

Player 5 - Mark Weston

Player 6 - Jim Adams

Player 7 - Ron Wuerth

Then I draw (randomly) to fill up each grid number



Then I start Drawing:

In this order:























Based on this numerical grid:



our new player lineup will be:

Player 1 - Mike Reed ------- Italy

Player 2 - Rob Winslow ---- Russia

Player 3 - Joe Steadman -- Turkey

Player 4 - Chris Wimbrow - France

Player 5 - Mark Weston --- Austria-Hungary

Player 6 - Jim Adams ----- Great Britain

Player 7 - Ron Wuerth ---- Germany

ONWARD!
