Re: Twenty questions: game 165
Would this be a reasonable definition? A "political figure" refers to an individual who is involved in influencing public policy and decision-making through holding a governmental office or by participating in political activities. This includes elected officials, candidates for office, and individ...

Re: Twenty questions: game 165
I’m more confused than ever that there’s a former politician with limited biographical information. Now I’m wondering if I’m making a false assumption about what qualifies as a ‘political figure’.

Re: Twenty questions: game 165
Is this person believed to be associated with any criminal, terrorist, or treasonist activity?

Re: Ghost Rating Challenge 09/23
Sorry folks, I kinda lost track of this thread after Ginge86 informed me he was cancelling and didn't realize I was still in the mix of a redo. Unfortunately I’m afraid I’m going to be bowing out. The direction it has taken differs significantly from what Ginge initially presented to me, and I belie...

Re: Does this website violate copyright laws?
I've seen this asked about in the past, and the short answer was no. The boring longer answer is - 'Copyright law does not protect the idea for a game, its name or title, or the method or methods for playing it. Nor does copyright protect any idea, system, method, device, or trademark material invol...

Re: I am the G.O.A.T. of press - Any worthy challangers?
Few thoughts on all of this. Firstly, while points can be enjoyable the gambling element associated with them doesn't seem to contribute to a credible system for ranking a diplomacy player. It tends to foster a flailing sense of competitiveness, which might not be the most effective approach as that...

Re: I am the G.O.A.T. of press - Any worthy challangers?
WebDips rating system is fairly broke these days. They have both webdip points and ghost ratings which is already confusing. The ‘Hall of Fame’ does break down by all time and ‘active in last 6 months’, but it doesn’t really filter right as the last 6 months section still has players who haven’t pla...

Re: I am the G.O.A.T. of press - Any worthy challangers?
Serious Question How is any new player on this site supposed to be able to get to number 1. When the GR system is reliant on playing other high ranked players and most of them no longer play? Or are too afraid to play? There’s three different paths that could lead to the top. 1) Beat the high rank ...

Re: Has Diplomacy activity come down in last 5 years ?
Speaking for myself, the main reasons WebDip doesn’t have the draw at the moment as it once was is due to a few things. - The appeal of discord live discussions elsewhere - Other communities are more tightly integrated with some of the Diplomacy media outlets this have better hype - Not as much orga...

Re: Has Diplomacy activity come down in last 5 years ?
Discord communities just use Discord for organizing and for community discussions, but the games themselves all take place on the existing sites. Backstabbr is most popular for them but many have also taken place on WebDip, PlayDip, etc. I believe all vFTF takes place exclusively on Backstabbr and F...

Re: Has Diplomacy activity come down in last 5 years ?
There's still plenty of activity out there but some of the online players have migrated over to Discord based communities or the relatively new virtual FTF scene plus there's always a dip in public online games whenever there's tournaments going on and right now there's three running simultaneously ...

I got far enough outside the box to entertain the idea of Rihanna yet somehow managed to blow right past Nikki.
