Standings -- following Morph/Lazarus/Phoenix

PLAYER	SEEDED	WINS	SCORE	DIPLOMATPAT SAYS:
SINCLAIR	30		29	SETS UP FOR THE STAB
MIKE	29		55	CAUTIOUS AND COMPLEX, HE IS CONFIDENT ABOUT ONE THING; EVERYONE COULD BE OUT TO GET HIM.  IF YOU ALLY WITH HIM DON’T EXPECT SPECIFICS BUT RATHER GOOD FAITH, TO WHICH HE WILL DELIVER TO THOSE WHO STAY AWAY FROM HIS BORDERS.
ALLAN	28		32	DEVELOPS WALLS
ANDRE	27		33	-
HOWARD	26		35	SLOW OUT OF THE GATE
SEAN	25		36	FAST EXPANDER
FRAZER	24		45	STYLE OF HIS OWN; DOCILE AND LOYAL.
PERRY	23		53	LONE STRATEGY
DAVID	22		80	AN ENTHUSIASTIC PLAYER WHO CAME IN SECOND IN HIS FIRST GAME WITH US.  HE IS AN EXPANDER WHO GROWS AT A MODERATE RATE.  TO WIN HIM OVER, SPEAK AS IF YOU ARE A FIGURE HEAD.
STU	21		85	STURDY AND SURE, HE IS THE TYPE OF PLAYER WHO WILLINGLY ACCEPTS A GOOD OFFER.  HE IS PRAGMATIC YET WILLING TO TAKE MINOR RISKS FOR MAJOR GAINS.
JON	20		120	CAUTIOUS YET WILD.  CLEVER POSITIONING.  THE FIRST GAME HE PLAYED HE HAD A NEAR PERFECT GAME.  SLIPPERY TACTICS MEAN THAT WHEN HE IS UP AGAINST THE ROPES IT IS HARD TO KEEP HIM DOWN.  STRANGERS MIGHT NEED TO REACH OUT TO HIM FIRST.
NATE	19		111	SINCE THE FIRST BOARD, HE IS LOW ON THE AGGRESSIVE SIDE AND LOW ON THE DIPLOMATIC SIDE.  IF HE IS YOUR ALLY, TELL HIM THE PLAN.  IF HE IS YOUR ENEMY THEN JUST SHOW HIM THE JAZZ HANDS. STRANGERS MIGHT NEED TO REACH OUT TO HIM FIRST.
CARL	18	1	122	TRICKY AND PRAGMATIC PLAYER.
URSACKI	17	1	260	DEMONSTRATES AN EXPERT UNDERSTANDING OF THE GAME, BOTH IN BOARD TACTICS AND PLAYER PLAYS.
PHIL	16		186	AN ENTHUSIASTIC PLAYER WHO LIKES TO THROW HIS WEIGHT AROUND.   YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE A TRICK UP YOUR SLEEVE TO BE HIS ALLY OR TO BE HIS ENEMY.
GEORGE	15		203	GOES FOR MANY ALLIES, HE ACTUALLY WANTS THE GAME TO END IN A BIG TIE, OR HIM FOR THE WIN.  HE WILL GO OUT OF HIS WAY TO PUNISH THE IMMORAL, AND HE HAS HAD NO BETRAYAL TO DATE.
ADAM	14	1	204	THE ONLY PLAYER TO ACTUALLY PLAY FROM EUROPE.  HE IS A BIG PICTURE PLAYER WHO HAS BEEN PLAYING DIPLOMACY SINCE HE WAS 9 YEARS OLD.  HE CAN RALLY SEVERAL ALLIES TO GREAT STRENGTH AND OVERALL IS FAIRLY LOYAL.
ROB	13	1	338	SINCE THE FIRST BOARD, HE IS BY FAR THE MOST LONE SPIRITED STYLE WE HAVE SEEN.  MORE TIMES THAN NOT, HE WILL TAKE A DEFENSIVE STANCE.  YOU WILL NEVER DEAL HIM A KILLER BLOW AS HE ALWAYS WILL DEFEND AGAINST THEM, EVEN IF YOU ARE IN A DEAL WITH HIM.  BEST WAY TO BEAT HIM IS TO PLAY WITH HIS HEAD.
ROY	12	2	395	WILD PLAYER WHO LIKES TO ACT QUICKLY AND DOESN’T LOOK BACK.  HE TRIES HIGH RISK MOVES THAT IF SUCCESSFUL CAN GIVE HIM GREAT POSITIONING.   IF YOU WANT TO KNOCK HIM OUT KEEP HIM FROM ALLYING.  HE IS WILLING TO MAKE ALLIANCES WORK WITH PLAYERS WHO DO NOT NEIGHBOUR HIM.
JARA	11	1	245	SUCCESSFULLY WON HIS FIRST GAME, HE IS STRATEGIC AND DIPLOMATIC.  WILLING TO WORK WITH ANYONE WITH A GOOD PLAN.
ANDREW	10	1	246	SINCE THE FIRST BOARD, HE IS CONSTANT PERFECTION OF THE ONGOING ROUND-BY-ROUND DEAL.  HE LOOKS AT THE BOARD WITH FRESH EYES EVERY ROUND, WHICH MEANS IF THERE IS WAR THERE COULD BE PEACE, BUT IF THERE IS PEACH THERE COULD BE WAR.  HE ASSUMES THAT OTHER PLAYERS PRIORITIZE THEIR GOALS AS HE DOES AND GETS SURPRISED WHEN THEY DON’T.  IF YOU ARE SMART, HE KNOWS WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO, SO ACT DUMB TO BEAT HIM.
DANNY	9	1	256	CHOOSES ‘MAYBE’ OVER ‘YES’ OR ‘NO’.  BUT NO ONE LOVES THIS GAME MORE THAN HE.  IF YOU HAVE A REPUTATION OF BETRAYAL HE WILL NEVER TRUST YOU, SO DON’T BOTHER.  IF YOU HAVE A GOOD REPUTATION THEN ‘MAYBE’ YOU HAVE AN ALLY IN HIM.
MILLAR	8	1	338	ONE OF THE ONLY PLAYERS TO FIND THE SITE ON LINE, HE HAS SHOWN STRENGTH AND GOOD PLANNING.  HE IS FAIR WHEN HE IS UP AND FEISTY WHEN HE IS DOWN.
J	7	1	561	SINCE THE FIRST BOARD, HE HAS ORCHESTRATED SOME OF THE BEST GRAND ALLIANCES AND THEY ALWAYS PROVE FRUITFUL FOR THOSE RECRUITED TO BE PART OF THEM.  HE NEVER COUNTS HIS EGGS BEFORE THEY ARE HATCHED, AND NEVER FAILS TO BEAT AN ENEMY WHEN THEY ARE OUTNUMBERED.  COME UP WITH A RATIONAL PLAN AND YOU CAN HAVE YOUR WAY WITH HIM.
KEVIN	6	1	538	HE IS TRUE TO HIS WORD BUT WILL CAREFUL HOW HE WORDS IT.  VERY COMPETITIVE, BIG PICTURE PLAYER WITH AN EYE ON THE PRIZE.  BEST WAY TO DEAL WITH HIM IS TO ACT ERRATIC AND UNPREDICTABLE.  TRASH TALK CAN ALSO THROW HIM OFF HIS GAME.  HE HAS ONE WIN UNDER HIS BELT BUT HAS COME CLOSE A COUPLE OF TIMES TOO.
PAT	5	3	512	AS THE WEBMASTER HE PULLS ALL THE STRINGS AND KNOWS THE MOST PLAYERS. A GREAT ADVANTAGE.  BUT SOMETIMES IT CAN WORK AGAINST HIM AS HE IS SEEN AS A THREAT.  SEVERAL SECOND PLACE FINISHES AND HIS WINS HAVE KEPT HIM IN THE TOP FIVE.  IT IS SAID, “HOW DO YOU KNOW IF (HE) LYING?; HIS LIPS ARE MOVING.”  THERE IS ALWAYS AT LEAST ONE SOUR PLAYER ON A MAP WHEN HE PLAYS TO THE END.   ALWAYS KEEP YOUR GUARD UP AGAINST HIM.
CLINT	4	1	515	SINCE THE FIRST BOARD, HE HAS PLAYED A MOSTLY HONEST GAME.  AND IF HE ANNOUNCES WAR AGAINST YOU, IT IS BECAUSE HE KNOWS FOR SURE YOU ARE GOING TO BE WEAKENED, AS HE IS RIGHT.  GET HIM TO ACCEPT A DMZ AND HE WILL NOT COME AFTER YOU.
SCOTT	3	3	666	LONG STANDING PLAYER.  TIED FOR MOST WINS.  AGRESSIVE, HAS RACKED UP POINTS FOR PLACE AND SHOW TOO.  BEST TO OFFER HIM SOMETHING TO KEEP HIM FROM COMING AFTER YOU, IF SOMEONE OFFERS HIM A BETTER DEAL YOU COULD HAVE TWO FOES ON YOUR BACK.
PETER	2	1	603	A STRONG PLAYER, HE HAS SHOWN THE ABILITY TO MAKE GREAT DEALS.  HE IS VERY RELIABLE AND SNEAKY AT THE SAME TIME.  BEST WAY TO BEAT HIM IS TO LET HIM GET OVER EXTENDED.  IF HE NEIGHBOURS STEVE, LOOK OUT!
STEVE	1	4	705	SINCE THE FIRST BOARD, STEVE HAS SHOWN THE ABILITY TO DOMINATE.  HE DOES WELL WHEN HE OFFERS ENOUGH WIN WIN STRATEGIES AND HAS GREAT ABILITY TO PLAY THE LONG GAME AND TARGET PLAYERS FAR AWAY.  IF YOU ARE A FRIENDLY NEIGHBOUR THEN HE IS A FRIENDLY NEIGHBOUR.  HE HAS BEEN THE VICTIM OF SOME OF HIS OWN SUCCESS.
