I'm starting college on Monday.
I'm majoring in computer science, and may also potentially dual major in that and mathematics. Any advice about either of the majors or college in general? Thanks.

"Burkini" Bans in France
Apparently, France is banning all sorts of religious garb, specifically targeting Muslim women, in the name of personal freedom and cultural values. Critics claim that hijabs, burkas, and other similar face or head coverings are repressive of women and are not fitting with the culture of openness in Western Europe. Thoughts?

What happens when you mute someone?
In a game. Do they notice this? Does it return their messages to sender? What if you unmute them later, do you suddenly receive all messages sent in between?

"Conservatism" and military spending
Something that puzzles me. A lot of people who call themselves conservative are generally big on pushing the small-government, "tax is theft" line. At the same time many of those same people are huge supporters of the armed forces.

How is decided which nation I get in a game?
I couldn't find an answer to this in the FAQ section.
When entering a new game, does the system distribute the nations to the players randomly? How is it decided who gets which nation? Is there a possible way of influencing the distribution, setting up preferences etc. or is it always totally random?
Thank you for answers.
Claesar (4665 D)

It is random, but the software does skew it to try and even out everyone's distribution of nations. In other words, if you have played Germany a lot already but rarely Italy then you are slightly more likely to receive Italy than Germany.

That used to be true. ATC posted recently that it's back to truly random.

There is some weighting:

Bronze Donators get Italy and Austria 50% less often than the base chance.
Silver Donators get France, England, Russia or Turkey 50% more often than the base chance.
Gold Donators and Moderators get to select their country when the game starts.

Hey jamiet99uk.. You forgot the special algorithm that punishes all ppsc scoring supporters.

With all the advantages the mods and admins get, you'd think we'd win more games after becoming mods instead of getting progressively worse.

I've got a points question
Hypothetical game...Mid game there's a reason why a cancel or draw is being considered.. I know where I'd be if a draw happened.. It's SoS scoring.
What happens points wise if the game is cancelled... There's one player been defeated. Another got rubbed out by the Almighty Mods, and another bought in for zero points, and two players doing well.
I think I'd be better off holding out for a draw but I'm not sure
MajorMitchell (1605 D)

Additionally this hypothetical is an anonymous game.. if it gets cancelled do I get to know who was in the game like iwould in a dfaw, ?
peterwiggin (15158 D)
31 Aug 16 UTC
You definitely don't get to know who was in the game if it's cancelled.

For points, I believe everybody gets back however many points they put in if the game is cancelled, but I'm less sure about that.

As it panned out.. You are right on both counts
Not my finest hour, nor perhaps someone else's.
I had a grumble about my discontent to the Mistress the Household over breakfast and she put some perspective on certain matters when she sniffed disparagingly, made a remark about a silly game and told me to go polish my gong if I wanted to feel better

Moderation is possibly the last term I would associate with the fire breathing MemSahib, Her Indoors... I'm off to get some more "gong polish"... Lagavulin is discounted at Liquorland, only $Aus 99-00 a bottle, for Father's day, three bottles or four, that is the question.

Boston Massacre Tournament Sept 24-25 Cambridge, Mass
The Boston Massacre was the first F2F tournament I ever played in and was a big inspiration when I created the webDip F2F Tournament and The Boroughs. I'm very happy to be reviving this tournament along with Valis, 2nd, and RLH. For more info, check out www.BostonMassacreDiplomacy.com. Hope to see you there!

Fall of the Amer Empire Map?
Hi. Is there something wrong with the Quebec spawns in this map? I'm trying to create a unit on certain centers that doesn't have a enemy move on them, but it wont let me. I can never spawn a unit on greenland for example.
