When you're heading for a solo
After *that* move where you get 2/3 centres and suddenly look like you're set for a solo: how do you convince the other players not to turn on you yet?

Gaining a supply center
I'm confused, on this site, there's spring and autumn. What happened to Winter?
When is the supply center gained?
Also, do I need a unit to phisycally exist in the supply center's country during the gain phase? Or perhaps it's enough that the unit passed there before?

I thought this question was interesting enough to warrant its own discussion? Should math be considered a science? What about engineering? Where does applied science end and engineering begin? Thoughts?

I remember seeing some Diplomacy position problems that a webdip user had put together (eg: "given this position, and a hostile Germany and France, how can England keep London?"). Does anyone have a link to this? Or to a similar resource?

New Proposed Feature
I was wondering if any of you coders out there can code a new feature that allows a player to repeat the previous phase's moves. This would be really useful when playing stalemate games that are drawn out by one player attempting to break through, hoping for an NMR or waiting for others to be taken out of the draw. It gets very boring sometimes to enter the same moves repeatedly and helps to avoid careless mistakes.

Is there anyone out here who actually thinks that Palin has (or ever had) anything relevant to say? If so, please explain to me why I am wrong to think she's got the intellect of a baked potato (although the latter probably tastes better when eaten).

Josunice tournament
I was wondering what are the current standings with the couple of games that recently finished... I was dead last before the solo, so I want to know if there is still hope of at least second place now that I have bounced back. I think josemurcs was winning by a lot, but with the latest results maybe he is no longer leading so easily?

Uh it's just me and my friends playing video games that's really it we don't do anything bad if that's what your asking. It's just 3 friends playing different style of games from rated E-rated M but not like games like gta more like halo. Because we know you can't show certain stuff in those kind of games and post it on the Internet. We respect the younger viewers as well as the older but the younger we pay more attention too. Because the fact they're young and we understand they look at adults for guidance.

Legion,

I'm sure you have a great channel that you're starting, and I know how hard it is to launch a gaming channel. If you have good quality material, then it will grow of its own accord. I still think that an advertisement will be flagged as spam and silenced, but if you want to hear from a current member of the staff, send an email to [email protected]

If not that's no big deal.
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
28 Jul 14 UTC
If I may ask, who is being harmed by this post? LEGION is a member of the community, who contributes to the site. Personally, I'm interested in what members do outside Diplomacy. I've used this site on multiple occasions to advertise for other projects.

Clearly, if someone creates an account with the sole purpose of advertising spam, that shouldn't be acceptable. But, I'm having a hard time understanding how that leads to a member unable to let other players know about another site for which there is known interest for.
CommanderByron (801 D(S))
28 Jul 14 UTC
@abgemacht - I agree with you. If the advertising isn't done with mal intent or overly excessive then I see no problem. For example Legion here has one forum post about it which may very well lead into a conversation about videogames as a whole. If he were to start multiple threads about the same thing thatd be wrong or if he bumped every 2 minutes thatd be bad.

I am in agreement with abge and CommanderByron. I think we will make the rules to reflect that an account created for the sole purpose of advertising spam is not ok, but a member should be able to let what he or she does outside the site and it could lead to interesting discussion. Repeated advertising isn't ok, but saying here is my youtube channel or twich is fine (unless I have missed some nuance).

So, let us know what your youtube channel and twitch is, THELEGION.

LEGION, why not just put the name of the channel in your profile? Surely that is allowed, as there is a section for homepage - where players like thehamster advertise their blogs.

It's not a crappy twitchtv, is it?
I have seen only a couple, and I always wonder why would I spend time watching instead of playing the damn game or whatever?

What's "multi-boxing" ?

Is this a new way for players found guilty of multi-accounting to overturn their bans through trial-by-combat against zultar?

LOL.
Multiboxing is when you play two more more accounts on Diablo 3 at the same time. You can't use a bot to do it. You have to manually play all the accounts yourself. Perfectly legal and acceptable there. I like the challenge of playing all 3 accounts by myself.
It's kinda expensive, but it's really the only thing I've spent money on recently.

LOL at abge. The mods would have quite a bit of money if we get paid for that here. :)

Fortunately for me, it's allowed for Diablo 3. I have a T6 crusader, T4-5 witch doctor, and T3-4 wizard on my main account. I'm thinking of working on my DH next, but I don't like jumping around and aggroing all the time.

That first post was in regards to the Skyrim MMO, which is crazy expensive.

I haven't played D3 recently, but I played it a lot when it came out.

Oh, I stand corrected. We did play vanilla D3 together. That was so long ago. If you don't have Reaper of Souls, then you are dead to me. :)
Seriously, huge improvements in RoS. You can get many interesting legendaries on your own now instead of buying them off of auction house, although I wish we could still trade.

Yeah, I remember this "expansion" now. Blizzard spends a decade making a half baked sequal to D2 and then tries to charge for an "expansion" which should have been in the initial release when it flops.

Thank you sir my groups youtube channel is the EpicFun TimeBrigade we are trying to get viewers for our channel but youtube doesn't really have a check out this new account option in their ads so I wanted to try my favorite online strategy site you guys as a way to help my friends and I account. We thank you very much and I will advertise your game the next time we're are all together. I was recording with my friend mrafroman20 last night. If you can't find our group channel just go to through his account and you guys should find the link to our group account. We are trying to get the twitch up and running but we keep on running into speed bumps we also try to post our streams on youtube if twitch keeps on screwing up with the stream. So you guys won't really miss a thing. My friend mrafroman20 has a twitter if you guy want to follow him he sends out the word when we are about to stream and with your permission zultar I will start advertising it here too. 1 more thing we also will take request for a game that you want us to play right now it kinda has to be a console game like a xbox playstation or wii game we will in the future start playing pc games.
