Diplomacy World #130 Notes from the Editor Welcome to the latest issue of Diplomacy World, Issue commentary. There is something to be learned from #130. It has now been over eight years since I began every detailed game of Diplomacy, variant or otherwise. my second stint as Lead Editor (at the urging of Jim Actions, reasons behind them…and even mistakes; you Burgess). I have a tendency to be very overly-critical of can learn just as much from watching other players anything I produce, whether it is my own writing or screw up than you can from watching a game played simply editing and compiling. So as each individual flawlessly. issue begins to take shape I am not able to see much of the good; I just see the flaws. But if I take a stap back There is a concentration of World DipCon this time and examine the body of work we have all produced around, as there should be. As far as I’m concerned since Diplomacy World #97, even *I* have to admit I am there can never be TOO MUCH convention and a bit impressed. tournament coverage. But there’s plenty more to read. Strategy and Tactics, a special crossover mystery with First of all I am amazed we’ve managed to keep it going The Diplomatic Pouch, and even the beginnings of a this long.

Oh, and of the time, but we have made a concerted effort to provide course that also means more opportunities to make new a wide range of articles every three months. friends. It is no exaggeration to say that I have some friends from the Diplomacy hobby that I’ve known for In a way I miss being able to pull off a “theme” issue as over 20 years, but still have not met in person. But I easily as we once could. It was hard enough coming up count them among the closest friends I have, and we with the topics to begin with. But then to get enough would do just about anything for each other. submissions to match the topic was a real struggle. Sometimes I felt like people held off writing because Like any hobby, that is the true strength of Diplomacy: their ideas didn’t fit the theme…that was a bringing people together with a common interest, in the disappointment, because an issue with a theme still hopes that friendships and relationships will grow far needed material on many other topics to give it depth. beyond that initial similarity. We have such an amazng Do you think we should try to resume doing “theme” range of cultures, nationalities, relions, ideas, beliefs, issues? occupations, and knowledge bases in this hobby. I think it is safe to say that – if you let yourself and if you give of Then again, maybe having themes helped motivate yourself in the same way – it is impossible not to grow as contributors because it gave them a topic to start off a person by participating in this hobby.

    “Rest well, yet sleep lightly and hear the call, if again sounded, to provide Firepower for Freedom…” 3rd Quarter 2013 The Jerseyman Number 79 Update on the Battleship New Jersey Memorial Kiosk Rich Thrash, Battleship Brass Team Volunteer It’s been a very busy spring on the battleship, lots of special events going on and overall attendance seems to be up a little over recent years. I don’t have any hard numbers to support that observation, but I do know I’m seeing more people passing by us as we work along the tour routes. The Turret II Experience is popular too; in fact additional slots are now available to schedule that tour on Saturdays. In addition to spending every Saturday I can on the ship working and polishing brass, I’ve also been busy over the last few months adding more crewmember names to the Memorial Kiosk. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Tom Kowszun for his help with the programming aspects of making the kiosk more user-friendly and interactive. I’ve also had a lot of help from Margaret and Dave Burgess who, through the use of www.ancestry.com, have tracked down the names of all plank owners who were onboard on commissioning day, May 23, 1943. Ancestry.com has been a great resource for this initial effort because it contains Muster Logs for the ships entire 1940’s period of active service. Memorial Kiosk, now on the main deck in the Sailors’ Life Gallery, a With Tom’s help we’ve taken the kiosk from something visitors could just much better location for it read names on, to a place where they can leave Deck Log entries about their visit and request information on how to add names to the kiosk.

I think I can say for everyone “it’s been quite a year”. Certainly not the year we had hoped for at the beginning and hopefully there will be no more surprises before we reach December 31st. This issue features an article for Thanksgiving about the Mayflower courtesy of David Hunt followed by a tribute to Christmas with issues from Around the World and finally I felt we could not end this year without referring to COVID-19. I found an article depicting several Issues and the through searching on the internet I found a number of other issues. So the last article of the year is a tribute to all the Frontline Workers who have worked and still are working tirelessly to help those who have this virus and to all the families who have lost loved ones.
