... Now Lack just has to learn the words for "Border Treaty" and "Alliance" in 42 languages! Haha! Good luck! :wink:

Dealing with this crap right now... First they started chatting in English. Suddenly, they start the Northern European thing... And are ganging up on me... SHENANNIGANS!!! Somebody translate for me in game 12101!!! This is seriously pissing me off.

2006-04-04 22:58:28 - Jegerbombom: Javisst, like så.
2006-04-05 00:58:32 - Jegerbombom: Litt kompiskjøring med Dirty, Bobby?
2006-04-05 01:06:42 - Bobbygrande: Kan ikke love noe, men jeg skal prøve å ta på meg ansvarsfrakken jeg og. Vurderer et par forskjellige strategier:-)
2006-04-05 01:08:21 - Bobbygrande: Kan hende det blir en tur over øya ute i havgapet...hehe

What about people who are saying... "I don't think theres any need for a Border Treaty/Alliance"? :lol:

I think that people should at least give the language that they are speaking in the chat window so that a traslator can be used to find out what they are saying. Otherwise this could be used to make secret alliances.

Ok, this is war. Do you seriously think that the enemy should speak the same language as you?! its bad enough that the players who DO speak english have to TELL you that they have an alliance, but you actually want translators to what, tell you if buddy in Bangkok is allied with buddy in Beijing?! Since when does an enemy of war have to tell you his alliances, let alone in your own language?!?! Do you know how retarded you sound? If you wanna figure it out, go to your local book shop and pick up a $10 Mandarin-to-English travelling book.

Do you actually think this is a real war? I think you may have some reality issues there buddy. This is a game, and one of the rules of this game is that there are no secret alliances. I might take offence to your comments but since they seem to be coming from someone with some serious issues I'll just let them slide this time.

Maybe you already are and just don't know it yet.

I.e.

2006-04-04 04:00:41 - Bobbygrande: Jegerbombom: You don't happen to be Scandinavian or?
2006-04-04 05:03:20 - Jegerbombom: Yes, my favorite country is Norway.
2006-04-04 05:10:05 - Bobbygrande: I thought so:-) Nice to meet you!
2006-04-04 22:58:28 - Jegerbombom: Oh yes, the same.
2006-04-05 00:58:32 - Jegerbombom: Are you playing friendly with Dirty, Bobby?
2006-04-05 01:06:42 - Bobbygrande: I can't promise anything, but I'll try to put on my "responsibility tail" as well. I'm thinking about some different strategies:-)
2006-04-05 01:08:21 - Bobbygrande: Perhaps it'll be a trip over the islands out in the sea...hehe And, oh, by the way, let's form a secret alliance and kick the American's asses! MOHAHAHAHA!!!

There are free translators on the net. They are not very good, but you are able to know what they talk about.

by **Hoff** on Sun Apr 30, 2006 7:11 pm

its not really secret if they announced in the game chat...lol

by **onbekende** on Mon May 01, 2006 1:40 am

I have nothing against it, you must be able to see with the battleplan what they are trying to do. Otherwise you dont play Risk in dept.
Problem with me is that nobody speaks Dutch
