Talk, or die! Reboot
"Talk, or die!" game got cancelled due to 3 NMRs before end of 03. Here's an attempt to start a new game with more or less the same settings.
Full press, 48 hours, (semi-)anon, DSS, 50 points buy-in, RR 90%.
Active players of the old game will have priority to sign up.

Banning Jenetically Modified Organisms
I think we should probably get rid of Jenetically Modified Organisms. For a while I thought they were gone but they seem to be making a comeback. Our health is at risk people. Do you wanna sit in your moms basement eating old cheese? Are you tired of being tired? Does your back hurt?

Getting Mexico to pay for the wall
Why doesn't Trump just impound Mexican land on the other side of the Rio Grande? -- land with a value equal to what it costs to build the wall. As a bonus, the wall could be built south of the river. That would make it easier to build.

Everyone be careful. There are a group of people who know eachother inviting people to their private games and metagaming to take coins. Just thought I should get the word out there.

Rise in diabeties in Dwarven and Halfling communities
Recent spikes in Type 2 diabeties have led to dramatic dietary changes in many halfling and dwarven communities. The diets consisting mostly of ale, salted pork, and pipe weed have finally started to erase the accepted idea that these races were rich in longevity. Gout, Obesity, and Type 2 diabeties have all risen. Recent additions of Mountain Dew and Doritos in Dwarven Mine Snack halls may also be to blame.

Can your army/fleet move from North Africa to Spain?
What about fleet moving from Black Sea to Aegean Sea(I found it in the rulebook, but to make sure if it is possible in WebDiplomacy..)?
I have searched the rulebook, but the former question is not to be found anywhere. Help me!

I'd prefer 3 day phases, just for communication's sake, but 2 is fine too.

I can sub if needed
slypups (1889 D)
28 Apr 17 UTC
I think we'll do three day phases as people seem fine with that - that will give time to work out 5-way communications. Although I do implore the players to ready up when it's settled, particularly on Build and Retreat phases, which rarely will need 3-days of communication. For Diplomacy phases, I expect it will go the full three nearly every time.

@SandyShu47 - can you explain why your RR is low (73%) before we can take you? Otherwise, I'll need to open up your slot to the next sub up - Balduran if he wants it (since snowy passed to him), Jacob as next up sub.
ND (879 D)
28 Apr 17 UTC
I agree with slypups. We really shouldn't have people not readying once they have discussed builds/retreats for 2 days... this applies mostly to the people from my old team. Is this okay team Drunk Uncle USA MOAB?

3 day phases is great... and let's commit to speed things up dramatically during build phase particularly, and probably retreats.

slypups (1889 D)
28 Apr 17 UTC
@SandyShu47 - I'll again ask for an explanation of the low RR if you want to stay in, but lack of answer isn't too promising so far...if I don't hear from you in the next 8 hours, I'm subbing in Balduran for the last spot and setting up the game.
slypups (1889 D)
28 Apr 17 UTC
"Brexit v EU" would also be good.
Yes, there are a lot of name options out there. I'll stick with "MOAB 'em v. Give Peace a Chance" unless I see a lot of clamoring for something else.

Sorry just got off work. Anyway I got banned a while back over a misunderstanding involving my brother and I playing from the same IP and I was in a bunch of games at the time. I've also missed a few throughout my time here due to personal issues but Im free right now and ready to commit to what sounds like a great learning experience.
slypups (1889 D)
29 Apr 17 UTC
Hmm...I have to admit I'm on the fence with that SandyShu, and a request from Jeff Kuta just pushed the decision for me. JK was in our last 5v5 game and was very reliable and showed some strong play. Apologies to others, but I'm going to give him a special pass in having proven himself from that first game and as a nod to a returning effort. Apologies to Balduran as well, who I would have happily taken, but JK has a special ticket. So here's the final group:
Team "Bomb 'em"
1.Dargorygel the Grynch
2. ND
3. Chaqa
4. MoscowFleet
5. JamesYanik

Team "Give Peace a Chance"
1. slypups
2. stranger
3. hauta
4. Ogion
5. Jeff Kuta
First alternate if someone bails: Balduran
I've played against most of you before and seen above average play from all of you, so I expect this will be a challenging game for all. For those on the list, you'll see a game link and password shortly. And I'll post the game link here as well if anyone wants to follow and observe.
slypups (1889 D)
29 Apr 17 UTC
Sorry that's Team "MOAB 'em" :)
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)
29 Apr 17 UTC
Thanks, slypups. I look forward to the game. Modern is my favorite variant.

End of Game (EOG) Statements: Why not?

Option to Publish private messages at end of game
I always wondered what private messages people were sending in full press games. Can we have an option when creating a New Game that once the game is over, everyone can review the private messages? -- Or does that already exist?
