Re: Asking People to Miss a Phase...On Purpose

I really don't know why webDip doesn't implement changes similar to what vDip has. vDip has "Extend" and "Pause" available to be voted upon. Obviously they require a 2/3 majority, but it's been nice in the past when someone needs to step away from a game for vacation or personal reasons.

Pause button

Have you considered bringing the Pause button over from vDip? It's useful for if someone's going to have a short vacation and request a 4-day extension from the other players of the game (must get 2/3rds majority).

Re: Announcing the 2018 GvI and FvA Showdowns

Are the brackets being updated automatically? I don't see the results to FvA 108 as being updated on Challonge or Google Sheets. Looking through, I wonder how many matches could be sped up by nulling their results. I understand slow games, but it's already April, and a few early-round games aren't b...

Re: The great beer debate

Being an American who has visited numerous towns in Germany as well as Prague, London, and Oslo, I've got to say that German pilsners can't be beat within their own variety. The problem is that Germans don't make much else. Dunkels are good, but it's hard to find English-style beers like stouts or p...

Re: America kinda sucks

As an American, I freely admit that our country sucks. But what country doesn't? I mean, I know it's popular to point to the supposedly superior health care of European countries or various other positive aspects of just about *any* country. But they have problems too. I've lived in Germany for a ye...

Re: [Android] Conspiracy App

It's a fun app with lots of newbies. My only complaint is the lack of a concede option. It makes 2-way draws so much riskier. But then again, that's probably how the game is meant to be played.

Re: Yet another needless mass shooting

Well, we love the 2nd Amendment. It's embedded into our national consciousness deeper than most other nations. Even if they are the cause of so much evil, they are also one of the best preventions of evil. I'd rather have much of the populous armed than none of it. Regardless, we have to remember th...

[ANSWERED] Processing bug

Is anyone else getting this bug report?
"The last process time was over 12 minutes ago (at 07:21 AM); the server is not processing games until the cause is found and games are given extra time."

Re: Announcing the 2018 GvI and FvA Showdowns

G/I seem to be imbalanced according to vDip stats, though not wildly so. Out of almost 1500 games played, you're looking at 60% Germany, 5% draw, 35% Italy. It's still enough to make me worried, at least.
