It isn't 'my' group so no offense taken. 

The nature of your game is a private one, when you start you should be
open about the fact that several players know each other, putting
additional players at a serious disadvantage in de diplomacy arena. If
you're really newbies, some experienced players may see that as a
challenge :-)

To find additional players, I would advice to simply start the game and
see if players join, several players simply on the judge if a game is
availble, this groups might work, maybe not many active here, but you
don't know how many still receive this e-mail if you post a link and a
invitation to the game you might very well get players.

Thomas:
Appreciate the quick reply, thanks!

Where should I go if I want to get two more people to play?  Is there a
better place then here to post?  No offense it's just that it seems that
there aren't a lot of discussions in this group (not very active) Thanks
again Noam
