Freaking Idiots
Hey kestas, in the game http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=5119 figer_Buenos_Aires has come to the conclusion that Azzaron and fenriz are the same person, before this gets way out of hand will you or someone else look into this.

Note : I am not accusing them, really I just would like to shut Figer_Buenos_Aires up. Thanks in advance.

Retreating to supply units
One more quick question, but can a unit retreat to a supply unit area, or can it only retreat to an area which has no supply unit spot (assuming there is no unit already there of course).

There's nothing like a win...
I'm just wrapping up one of my biggest wins yet, and it was a game where I took over a CD country in a moderately good position. I figured I could just do this and not go through too much of the risk of the openings.

Although, now I'm in a new game, it's great to be back in the 1901 style diplomacy.

I am just interested to know what people's thoughts are on New vs. CD?

A further update on the leagues
There are now six further places in the leagues available. Entries should be in by 29th September. All entries should be made via e-mail to me, using the address in my profile, and include your phpdiplomacy name.

There shall be five games in the season, which will begin in the second week of September. The point scoring is based on winner takes all, with SC count used as a tie-breaker in the case of equal points.

We shall begin with groups of equal ability for the first season. The seven most successful players will enter the Premier league in the second season, the next seven League A, the next seven League B and so on. From hereon, there shall be two players going up each season and two going down.

you mean that ranks 1-7 will be in one group??
wouldnt it be fairer to organise them to contain 2 top players, 3 midle and 2 at the lower end?

phew. was worried. bet flashman was more worried!

by the way flashman
at a book store in NaTrang city in vietnam i came across an old english book (1920s?) about a young military officer called Flashman. from the book jacket i got the impression he spent most of his time in brothels and was a complete cad ....but cunning and at the end of the day rather dashing.
youre not a fan of the book/series by any chance?

Is the seeding done with the database you previously had?

That was about three weeks old, right?

I don't mind being in a low position, I just want to know if it is updated or not.
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
22 Aug 08 UTC
It isn't updated, I am afraid.
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
22 Aug 08 UTC
And since it is just for seeding in a sort of "qualifying round" type thing, that is probably ok- it still gives people the jist of it.
Ouch, I'm with MadMarx

Sean - how old is that book - was it written by Macdonald Fraser?
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
22 Aug 08 UTC
cg, I am afraid that the players are still coming in, so you cannot be sure what your group will be yet.

How long before we start diplomacy book club then?
Flashman, the GCSEs were indeed good... although you are starting to become all the more "creepy old Chinese bloke" by the second.

Xapi, I am afraid that other arrangements of mine prohibit my starting earlier than the planned dates

We have -one- remaining place now.

Don't suppose you earned a pass to play Dip live for those results did you?

I'm not quite Chinese though, but my better half is.
flashman (2274 D(G))
23 Aug 08 UTC

Oh, and I am very much looking forward to starting. I found the experimental games fascinating. They were more intense than other games set at the same points level I have played in here, and all the more enjoyable for that. The end games in particular were played out fully. No coasting to victory.

Of course, I am looking forward to being France, Turkey, France, Turkey and then, perhaps, France again... ; )

Pitirre
I seem to remember a player that was banned around the time I joined by the name of pitirre. I don't remember much about the situation, as I was not very involved in the forum at that time, but while browsing the joinable games I saw an account by the name of el_pitirre. I'm not sure if this is important of not, but I thought it might be worth mentioning.

PHP didn't take orders
http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=5220

I placed order at least 15 minutes before the deadline and verified them line by line and continued to refresh up until the turn deadline.

When the turn ended, this site ended up with only half off them.

I know this is probably something you hear often and it is not intended as a gripe, but a request to check this out. This ended any chance I had of surviving in the game. since two of the players against me didn't show any orders up to the deadline and were relying on updates and not finalized orders.
