Steaks Diplomacy Game
Would anyone be interested in a -whoever wins grills- steaks diplomacy game? The notion is that we'd all have a potluck some amount of roasted veggies on a grill, and some ribeyes. We go to a ftf party, then get naked.

Stakes Diplomacy Game
Would anyone be interested in a tent stakes diplomacy game? The notion is that we'd all chicken-wire together some tarps into a tent sitting in the backyard of a trusted party, and fasten it to the ground with tent stakes. The pay-out is that if you solo, everybody else has to sleep out in it at the end of the game, with Krellin visiting the tent to wake y'all up every morning.

Just a thought
I just had a thought on a game where you can't support any of your moves (including support holds). I was thinking this would encourage alliances more and just make for an interesting game

For anyone who's interested here's the info gameID=204910

Has there been an actual WW1 simulation/approximation of Diplomacy?
Meaning orders & outcomes that best represent the events of WW1, which I assume would result in some sort of draw in the end, beginning either 1901 or 1914? I'm sure it's been done, but I'm a curious newbie.

What do you all think about Faustian stories?
Diplomacy is a great playground for turning on friends for personal advantage, and I'm pretty sure everybody might compromise their held virtues for a little harmless gain in most places of their lives. Do you all think Faustian narratives are on point the more we all trod into the great 21st century, or is the devil obsolete and unversed in the digital age?

You guys are looking at this all wrong. This is an opportunity for Mr. Trump to get even the bester of the best people. He has a very good brain and he will get the best people to join his team. I've said this from the very beginning and he has done that. And he is continuing to do that. He will get the bestest of the best this time and when needed, he will even get more of the bestest of the bestest of the best because he has a very good brain. Nothing he does can ever be wrong. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Mr. Trump is the bestest we have to offer and only the bestest, smartest people with very good brain understand that.

That would be great, jmo. That would give me a lot of +1s and save me time from illustrating that it is possible to be funny and not post shitty immature jokes that only Chaqa thinks is funny in a shitty attempt in pretending to bring levity to a situation. The overestimation in our own intelligence or sense of humor happens too often for many of us.

The fascist style of leadership is to set your underlings against each other so they can never hope to challenge you. He's running his administration like The Apprentice, which is a much more scary proposition than it sounds.

That said, this is pretty great. Bannon is a pigfucker and this will alienate Trump's base. Even ND is doubting his God-Emperor.

I have no idea how intelligent he is. It doesn't matter if he's doing this consciously or not; it's still a facet of his personality that tends to accumulate personal power while destabilizing any organization he leads.

Leaving the grey arrow
Is there any bigger asshole than the guy who's doomed to defeat and puts in his moves with a grey arrow so that everyone has to wait a day or more each phase? Of course everyone goes out of town sometimes or is unable to get to the site for some reason, but someone who does it faithfully every turn should be banned. It's the behavior of a crybaby.
