In fact, this is the correct draw request for England, Italy, Austria (myself) and Russia. Please draw this game, thanks Kestas! Others please confirm.

Very Fast - 1 hour per turn.
Pot - 10 points.
Did anyone say gunboat?

When will Italy control this territory? I am not clean on the rules on that.

Thanks in advance!

When creating a game, how does one make it not private?

I started a game with 60 hour phases with the hope of having more correspondance. I even put the fact that it was a very slow game in the name. Unfortunately, the game was filled out by players who aren't interested in the diplomatic side of the game at all, or didn't realize what the length of the phases were. Oddly, the longer phase seems to have done the exact opposite of what I had intended. Now I'm stuck in a game where I don't want to be the slow guy that everyone turns on to speed up the game, which sucks.
I'd like to start another long phase game, but I don't want the same thing to happen. Is there any way to accomplish that?

I just created a game called Fast Play for anyone interested in 1 turn ever 2 hours. It's Friday night here...so that sounded kind of fun. :)

Well, this is what I get for giving a game this name! England, Russia, Italy and myself have all agreed to a draw. Thanks, Kestas!

20 point bet, PPSC.

This game will be played under the variant rules I had come up with in the thread "A dumb, arbitrary, but potentially fun variant I've thought of".

Those rules will be detailed next post.

Myself and Austria would like to agree to a 17-17 draw, he will post here as well.

Thanks!

I, Russia at 16 supply centers, am asking for a draw to end this game. Asking France, Italy and Turkey to verify.

If Germany has an army in Belg and Ruhr and France have armies in Bur and Holland, what happens if Germany attack Belg-Bur supported by Ruhr and Fra attacks Bur-Ruhr supported by Hol?

There is the possibility to 2 units in the same suplly?

The small map does not show the support from Warsaw to Ukrane. The large map does show it. Is this a known bug? Has anyone noticed it elsewhere?

I'm new to this board, though I've been playing Diplomacy for years. I'm confused about the points and how they work when one takes over a CD power. Do I understand correctly that I could lose points if I take over a two center power that is close to elimination? Doesn't this discourage people from taking over CD powers?

I was just wondering, what do you do when you don't deal with this site? Do you work in the computing industry?

Once in a while I hear about how some starting countries just naturally win more often than others. Having a little free time I thought I would run a quick and dirty check on the finished games from this site.

Total games finished: 2874
Games drawn: 95

Winningest countries by games won and percentage descending:

Turkey 525 18.89%
Russia 503 18.10%
France 434 15.62%
Germany 383 13.78%
England 380 13.67%
Austria 289 10.40%
Italy 265 9.54%

How does this match your expectations?

The people in my game posted earlier (http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=4501) about turkey and austria being the same person a while ago and the evidence that we supplied was solid.

If an army is convoyed to the location of another army that is being convoyed in the same turn, is the second convoy disrupted?

Some new folk trying to get a game going. Join it up

How we take a vacation? I have to be ausent for a week and I do not know how to proced with the game that I am playing. Do anybody know the procedure?

I played the game for the first time recently and it was great. Please join so that this game can be just as good. http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=4897

I would like a sitter starting from Monday, for a week, who is not part of the league 1 games, nor the game "Public relations"

I have nearly ended the league game, and entering orders is all that is needed, and Public relations is light on press.

Many thanks,

Ghost.

Basically, the game is all about retaliation. It'd have to be played severely on the honor system... but it could be kind of fun. Rules detailed within.

Game started for players with less than 100 points - newbies preferred!

Some of the options in the support menus are illegal and don't make much sense. For instance, I ordered a support move to the Eastern Mediterranean and one of the options I was presented with was a move from Greece. Greece was held by an army at the time, and furthermore Greece doesn't even border the Eastern Mediterranean.

I've noticed similar oddities with convoy orders (Black Sea was listed as able to convoy from Constantinople to Greece), or in the vicinity of the Mid-Atlantic Ocean (it was either an army being able to support a move into a sea territory or else a fleet being able to support an army's move into a sea territory).

I know there have been other move options that made me stop and scratch my head, and I've never ordered any such move. What happens if you do? Is there any way these could be systematically listed and then corrected for in the next release of phpDiplomacy?

Finally, a 500-buy in PPSC...

I now invite Flashman, Wombat, Rait, anlari, Dangermouse, Treefarn, whatever...to join.

If I understand the php correctly, the difference between PPSC and winner takes all only applies if someone wins. If there is a draw, the pot is evenly divided between the survivors in both PPSC and winner takes all. Is that correct?

I find it a bit hard to negotiate with another player not knowing when they are likely to be around since I have no idea whatsoever what timezone they are in. It would be nice if the system could tell me for each player either the timezone they are in (GMT +/-) or how many hours they are off my own time.

On the downside it tells you which players are going to be awake when the orders are due. Then again, maybe you just want to play with people in similar timezones.

Another gamesite I am in shows a little flag for the home country of each player which kind of serves the same purpose.

What pluses or minuses do you see to this?

I think among the thousands of games played on here it must have happened once? I ask because it might happen in one of my games
