I've been on both the giving and receiving ends of multiple games in which Austria, Italy, and Russia decided that their games would be much simpler if there wasn't a Turkey around, and it always was. I propose that we start the game off by coordinating a removal of Turkey before moving on to other priorities. I think that would be a great idea. How would you propose we split up their territories  afterward? And could I count on your support should Germany move towards me? Yeah, I'd definitely have your back against Germany. As for the split... I get Ankara and Rumania, you get Bulgaria and Constantinople, and Italy gets Greece and Smyrna? Fantastic. I'd personally prefer Rumania/Bulgaria and you can have Constantinople/Ankara. That also works. Ah SHIT, I'm sorry, I meant to update my orders to fix the Galicia move but it didn't go through. I'll be sending Galicia to Rumania this turn, and then turning Rumania over to you next turn. Promise. Want Black Sea to support you into Bulgaria? Yes that would be wonderful Fuckin goddammit Backstabbr... I acknowledge this might ring hollow two seasons in a row, but I swear to god I had updated my orders but they just didn't take, I guess? I've got a support order in for Ser-Bul. I can help you against Turkey still, y'know Turkey didn't benefit anything from your little stab there, and I'm still in a position to get my forces together to do some good defensive work. We can patch this thing up, man. Hi? I'm still trying here, dude Literally the only person in this game to whom I've actively lied is Turkey, every other message I've sent has gotten the thumbs up
