+===== Rapport Dixiecon 38 =====
-**by David Hood**
+**par David Hood**
-For the 38th time (whew) I hosted a bunch of Diplomacy players and other board gamers for a weekend of fun in
+Pour la 38ème fois (ouf), j'ai accueilli un groupe de joueurs de Diplomacy et d'autres joueurs de jeux de société pour un week-end de plaisir à Chapel Hill, en Caroline du Nord, au cours de la semaine dernière.
-Chapel Hill, North Carolina over Memorial Day weekend 2024.
+Chapel Hill, Caroline du Nord, le week-end du Memorial Day 2024.
-For I believe the first time in those 38 years, we shared the venue with a martial arts competition.  Which
+Pour la première fois, je crois, au cours de ces 38 années, nous avons partagé la salle avec une compétition d'arts martiaux.  Ce qui
-was pretty awesome, although elevators shared between folk who figuratively stab each other in the back and those with ACTUAL swords and spears slung over their backs was quite an experience.
+Ce qui était assez génial, même si les ascenseurs partagés entre les gens qui se poignardent dans le dos au sens figuré et ceux qui ont de VRAIES épées et lances en bandoulière, c'était une sacrée expérience.
-===  PreDip gaming ===
+===== Jeux pré-Dip ===
-We had a large number of Thursday arrivals this year, which meant a lot of non-Dip gaming both that night and all day on Friday.
+Cette année, nous avons eu un grand nombre d'arrivées le jeudi, ce qui a entraîné beaucoup de jeux en dehors de la Trempette, à la fois ce soir-là et toute la journée du vendredi.
-Chris Barfield and Alex Ronke helped me with airport runs those two days, which I appreciate very much.  Games I saw played on Thursday night included Space Base, Terraforming Mars, Here I Stand, Sushi Go, and that perennial Dixiecon favorite Outpost.  (Seriously, I think Outpost has been played at least twice at every Dixiecon since the early 90s. And in the old days when our group used to travel to Cons in my conversion van, Outpost was the game of choice to play during VanCon because I could play it while driving.)
+Chris Barfield et Alex Ronke m'ont aidé à gérer les aéroports ces deux jours, ce que j'apprécie beaucoup.  Les jeux que j'ai vus jouer le jeudi soir comprenaient Space Base, Terraforming Mars, Here I Stand, Sushi Go, et l'éternel favori de Dixiecon, Outpost.  (Sérieusement, je pense qu'Outpost a été joué au moins deux fois à chaque Dixiecon depuis le début des années 90. Et à l'époque où notre groupe se rendait aux Cons dans mon van transformé, Outpost était le jeu de prédilection à jouer pendant la VanCon parce que je pouvais y jouer tout en conduisant).
-I have to pause here and talk a little about Keith Worstell, known online as Stitches, who has become an integral part of the Dixiecon experience in just his third appearance.  Keith is a Diplomacy variant enthusiast,
+Je dois faire une pause ici pour parler un peu de Keith Worstell, connu en ligne sous le nom de Stitches, qui est devenu une partie intégrante de l'expérience Dixiecon alors qu'il n'en est qu'à sa troisième participation.  Keith est un passionné des variantes de Diplomacy,
-among other things, so Thursday night he ran a game of his two-player Civil War game for two interested Dippers.  He also created the Diplomacy sets we used for Dixiecon this year, featuring large mats and pieces along
+Il a donc organisé jeudi soir une partie de son jeu de guerre civile à deux joueurs pour deux Dippers intéressés.  Il a également créé les sets de Diplomatie que nous avons utilisés pour Dixiecon cette année, avec de grands tapis et des pièces, ainsi que des carnets d'ordre de couleur coordonnée.
-with color-coordinated order pads and pens for each of the seven Great Powers. Those of you who caught the
+de grands tapis et de grandes pièces, ainsi que des carnets de commande et des stylos de couleur coordonnée pour chacune des sept grandes puissances. Ceux d'entre vous qui ont suivi la couverture du
-DBN coverage already saw how awesome these sets were, and of course those you attended got to experience Keith’s sets first-hand. Many thanks to Keith!
+DBN ont déjà pu constater à quel point ces décors étaient impressionnants, et bien sûr, ceux qui étaient présents ont pu voir les décors de Keith de leurs propres yeux. Un grand merci à Keith !
-==== The Seersucker Round ====
+==== La ronde en seersuckers ====
-Friday during-the-day was for socializing, eating, and me picking up more folk from train stations and airports.  There was also a great deal of gaming throughout Friday right up to shortly before the first Dip Round was to start at 6pm.
+Le vendredi, la journée a été consacrée à la convivialité, aux repas, et j'ai été chercher d'autres personnes dans les gares et les aéroports.  Il y a également eu beaucoup de jeux tout au long du vendredi, jusqu'à peu de temps avant que le premier Dip Round ne commence à 18 heures.
-Titles played included Dune Imperium (which would see more play throughout the weekend) as well as
+Parmi les titres joués, citons Dune Imperium (qui sera joué tout au long du week-end), ainsi que
-Chess, Dominion, Crisis 1914, Puerto Rico, Clans of Caledonia, and Castles of Burgundy.

-As the official start of the Diplomacy round approached it was time for me to don my seersucker suit for the
-traditional opening festivities.
-Oddly this year we had no awards from past years to announce, so after some introductory comments and a photo of all those who had chosen to wear the correct attire for Seersucker Round, it was time for the main event to begin with four boards of eager Dippers ready to go.
-The games at Dixiecon this year were all named for regions of North Carolina, so let’s focus for Round 1 on the game called Outer Banks.
-This one went late into the next morning at the Russia of Randy Lawrence-Hurt eventually pushed for the solo against Tim Crosby’s England, Liam’s Stokes’ Germany and Jack Craig’s Italy.
-Due to EG conflict towards the end and some misorders, Randy almost took 18 but fell just short - and then after Dave Maletsky took over the 1-center Italian position as a replacement player, the players finally decided to end on a 2-way for Tim and Randy because Liam had (according to Tim) promised such a result if Tim would cooperate on
-stopping the Russian solo.
-Quite a start to the tournament, and that 17-center two-way result being out there likely changed the trajectory of several other games throughout the weekend as sharp players knew they would be chasing Randy’s score in order to win the tourney.
-//David Miller – Golden Blade Winner and 2nd Place//
-===  Iron Man 1===
-The Iron Man tournament is for all the games we play other than Dip throughout the weekend, and it was also in full swing on Friday night.
-Games included Cascadia, Outpost, Pan Am, Puerto Rico, Broom Service, Thurn and Taxis, and a mammoth game of Railways of the World using both Americas maps and four physical tables pushed together to make enough room for the six players involved.
-It was…a lot.
-==== Round 2 Team tournament ====
-Saturday morning saw four more Diplomacy games, which also doubled at the Team Tournament.
-Taking center stage during this round is the game called The Triangle, which featured David Miller’s Russia and Todd Craig’s Italy taking their Wintergreen alliance all the way to the very rare 17-17 two-way draw.
-While we have seen this old-school result in several virtual games during the pandemic period, I could not tell you the last time I saw one in a face-to-face event.
-Obviously, the spectre of Randy’s 17-center finish the night before was looming large here. Also of note was the Unifour game, in which the players really could not get anything going towards a legitimate finish under Dixiecon scoring and had to settle for the awful 6-way draw result.
-Rony Mordvinov’s 10-center Austria in this game just could not get him a score to keep him in contention after two rounds of place, much to his chagrin after a nice Round 1 performance.
- === Iron Man 2===
-Iron Man action during the day on Saturday saw some new games played, including Lords of Baseball, Ark Nova, and Princes of Florence along with more Dune Imperium.
-After the traditional BBQ dinner in the late afternoon, it was time on Saturday night for more open gaming along with play of one of Alex Ronke’s Diplomacy variants.
-Some new names to the list of games played included Robo Rally, Magic the Gathering, Ticchu and Splendor - with old Dixiecon standard Here I Stand also seeing a second play.
- === Iron Man 3 ===
-Iron Man gaming continued on Sunday morning, with games of Power Grid, Titan, and Twilight Struggle adding to the games played, along with additional boards of games like Ark Nova which had already seen a lot of play.
-For the Iron Man event in general, 39 boards of 27 different games were played over the
-weekend, which was fun for all concerned.  Longtime Dixiecon attendee Bruce Duewer took the prize again this year, with former Iron Man GM Dan Mathias taking second.
- ==== Round 3 ====
-Going into Round Three of the Diplomacy tournament, there were several players in contention with two-way
-draws in the bag from previous rounds.  Which of these contenders would take the 2024 championship?
-Answer:  none-of-em.  Instead, Karthik Konath achieved the very rare timed-round solo as Austria in the Crystal
-Coast game, beating out David Miller who achieved his second two-way of the tournament in game Blue Ridge as Germany.
-Peter Yeargin and Jason Bennett rounded out the action with their own two-way draw in the Great Smokies game, parlaying that into third and fourth finishes overall in the Dip tournament.
-A very dynamic end to an amazing event on the Diplomacy side.
-=== PostDip gaming ===
-After congratulating Karthik for his second Dixiecon win and bidding farewell to those players leaving after the
-awards ceremony, it was off to eat for all those players staying for more gaming Sunday night.
-And yes, there was a LOT of that.
-I counted games of TransEuropa, Campaign Trail, Push, Distilled, Ark Nova, Welcome To, and another Dixiecon standard of old, the train game 1830.
-But the highlight of Sunday night gaming has really become the board of Escape from Colditz, as various allied POWs tried to get past Nazi guard David Miller much to the delight of everyone involved.
-I think Tom Kobrin hiding many of David’s best cards in his pocket may have helped the Allied cause, possibly.
-Thanks to all for attending this year’s Dixiecon!
+Alors que le début officiel de la partie Diplomatie approchait, il était temps pour moi d'enfiler mon costume en seersucker pour les traditionnelles festivités d'ouverture.
-I had a blast, hope everyone else did also.
+pour les traditionnelles festivités d'ouverture.
-I was particularly happy to see nine faces new to the event, and look forward to seeing everyone back in Chapel Hill next
+Curieusement, cette année, nous n'avions pas de récompenses à annoncer, alors après quelques commentaires d'introduction et une photo de tous ceux qui avaient choisi de porter la tenue correcte pour le Seersucker Round, il était temps pour l'événement principal de commencer avec quatre plateaux de plongeurs impatients prêts à se lancer dans la bataille.
