In an effort to build a stronger network of players in Texas, and with
the long-term goal of building Texas Diplomacy event large and small,
I've created a Yahoo group for players in Texas, and in surrounding
areas (such as Texarkana, AR; Oklahoma; and western Louisiana). If
you'd like to join this free group, you can do so at:

http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/texas-diplomacy/

Even if you are not currently interested in attending such face-to-
face events, come join the discussion if you live in Texas, so we can
succeed in building the network of local clubs.

You're usually pretty thorough with publicity, but I'll mention it just
in case...

There are a few city-wide Diplomacy organization on the Pouch FtF page:
http://diplom.org/DP-cgi/clubs?area=US

They're probably not active, but it may be worth chasing down the
contacts. They might have more mailing lists for you to advertise
on. Smile

Please keep me informed on how this goes for you and keep track of
everything that you do to make it work. If I get well enough for FtF, I
want to try to duplicate your success here in the desert southwest.

I will. I've found a few gaming groups (one meets every week or two
here in the Dallas area) but with open gaming they don't ever seem to
play Diplomacy...too long, and takes too many committed players. But
I believe that if I occasionally publicize the group, build a simple
website, and keep the members actively talking to each other, things
can grow over time. 10 members in 12 hours isn't a bad start!
