Diplomacy21- just started

#1 Post by Historicalgamer9721 » Thu May 09, 2019 1:52 am

Hello,

I just created a game and would love for people to join. The game's name is called Diplomacy21. Feel free to hop in.

You underestimate our ability to be intellectual Diplomacy players, yet still be lazy. That tool is clearly for when someone Verbally tells you about the game, or you know someone is a bout to make a "Shakespeare Game".

Separately, how does the logic in the search option "contains" work? I pasted in the name of this game, and selected Contains because I figured if there were any spaces around it or such, then the engine could still find it, but the search came up dry. I just selected starts with, and then it worked, but I'd like to know how to use the search tools effectively.

Diplomacy21

But I found it with both "Starts with" and "Contains" (and "Ends with").. Even if I put a space behind it. So I can't reproduce the error mentioned.

Percy, could you investigate what caused the problem on your end?

I tested it a couple times, and the error occurred when I checked the search joinable public games box. The search goes through and comes up with no results. ( I left the game first, and gave it some time to regocnize I wasn't in said game). I will rejoin the game now though.
