¿Question #5327?
meshuggener: Do actions by a player in one game affect your actions in following games with the same player?

decb: Ohhh yes.
pricero1: In Diplomacy, you betcha.
Sacco: Yes, far too often.
jorl: Not the specific actions. But knowing how someone thinks changes the way I play with them.
Auramine O: Yes.
Hector Vortac: A good poker player stores up the tendencies of his fellow players.
popsicola: yes
Spirit of 70: It depends on the actions. Not usually, but I wouldn't completely rule it out.
weed131: yes
vandemonium: Très surely
xofour: i would say trends over a series of games may influence how, and evein if I will play other games. But rarely do I judge based on a single game.
DasViktor: I found not to help a player out (the guy who usually wins). Yeah, it's a little counter-productive.
Woelf: If a player was acting like a jerk in one game, it can occasionally lead to retribution in the following game.
richard schwab: Yes.
Aetheros: Aye
cipiii: Only if you are still learning in this life.
aleo09: sure.
Polgara: sometimes :)
2amp: yes
engdy: Not so much anymore. I've had practice with lots of Diplomacy sessions
dagny21: NO.
Megadev: Sometimes. If somebody completely dominated one game, they are likely to get ganged up on in the next game.
ZeroZilla: They'll cause me to be wary, but generally not to be vengeful. I'm sure I've done that once or twice...but as a rule, I try to keep games seperate from each other.
wwscrispin: No
Blade Spirit: Revenge...revenge...revenge...
Rina: yes
deldebbio: yes. i´m vengeful
sdonohue: If you just backstabbed me, I certainly don't trust you as much.
bigmop: Yes. Some players have to fight.
DHEK: No. Each game is its own. I don't carry grudges forward.
Decorius: Yes, revenge.
OsmiumATOMasATOM: No, if the player was "in character." Wait. Yes. Always. There will be reprisals.
wetwebwork: Yes.
Leo-T: no
monkeyrobot: Normally, no... but sometimes...
POvidiusNaso: Yeah, if that player adheres to certain strategies. Most of the time all that ends up doing is costing me the game, though, as I over-fixate on what he's doing.
Ebon Wendigo: Only if I can discern a style of play and then somehow take advantage of it.
rootbeer: No.
mrspank: Yes. I carry grudges and people know it.
jtakagi: No
Geosmores: Yes
tagger418: Absolutely, how could they not. You wouldn't make an alliance in the second game with some one that totally stabbed you in the back the previous game. Likewise, you must COMPLETELY blind side the person you allied with in the first game some time during the second game.
jjloc: sometimes
suncrush: Yeah, especially in games that involve negotiation. I don't go after people who are on a hot streak, but I will play nice with someone who's having a bad evening.
puffinge: not that often, but it can happen
lycaone: Of course it happen.. for instance I never trust who betrayed me in Shadow over camelot.. I never trust who paly verrater.. :)
cad614: Yes, I don't make the same mistake again.
moyet: yes
SybotCB: Yes
scriptorum: Generally not, but it depends. If a game of Diplomacy follows a game where a player screwed me over, I am most certainly going to exact vengeance.
FrozenHoHos: Absolutely.
chockle: certainly when you know some players style of playing
Gwahlur: Sometimes they do, I must admit. Some people are power hungry in all games, so I try to stop them early on.
ralpheous: sometimes
djlg: No
bigbadsteve: not usually
brainrob: Depends on the game
confuse_a_cat: Of course.
jasta6: Yes!
JCooperofCharity: Personal actions, yes. Strategic gameplay, no.
Belash: only sometimes
CortexBomb: No
ssmooth: I try not to get beat the same way twice.
jttm: Nope.
skelebone: Usually not.
Lord_Prussian: Not as a rule. Cheating, I suppose, but other than that not so much.
Spielfreak: Ah, the meta-game. Not really, unless it can be done boldly for maximum affect.
chaddyboy_2000: No.
ctalbot: Sometimes. If I notice a weakness, I might take advantage of it.
heli: yes, if Eric uses Struggler for Survival so that his brother Eron wins Ursuppe, I won't play that particular game with both of them again.
CDRodeffer: Only if it's a tournament or a series of games.
