Global Press Only-3
Are there 6 more people interested in playing this interesting variant? Only press on the Global tab is allowed, which means no secret communication between players.

The last game was certainly a heated battle... And those from that game are welcome to join this next Global Press game, and of course, anyone else who wants to play is welcome too. The first six people to post in this thread saying they'd like to play will get the spot, so don't wait! :)

We could make the games 25 points, WTA.

There is no way to enforce that there be no communication between just two players, so it's based on the honour system. So far, in the first two games, it didn't seem to be a problem.

OK, It's ofcourse visible when moves of two players are getting too coordinated in their moves. I'm very interested in this type of gaming, since I've bought the board game a while ago. But I've had no chance yet to use it. So, I'd like to join the second game.

You are welcome to join Ursa.

We still might need two more players, if EdiBersan doesn't respond, or if Abydos1 does not win some points soon.

I agree with trim101. "Wilson-3" should certainly start, but I think EdiBersan will have to wait till the second game, as he hasn't really stated that he wants to play.... I'll kindly take his spot in the first game. :)

I'll also start the game, and I'll post a link to the first game here shortly.

4 CountArach

Sorry but not interested in Global (*Wilson) Dip at the moment.
I agreed to a special game here which makes 4 for now and that is more than enough at the moment on this site.
Thanks for the invite anyway.

Terribly sorry Edi Birsan...

But we still do need a seventh. The game has started, but no moves have been made(and no moves will be made for a day and a half), so if you like playing Italy, and would like to play in this Global Press Only game, find the game in my profile, and join up. Anyone is welcome.

Five-way draws
How common are these? I'm in a game that is in 1907 and the majority of the players appear to be pushing for this... It kind of caught me off guard!! Maybe it's just a WTA thing as I haven't played too many of those...

NMR's in 1901... why are they playing on>?
I have taken over two games where the players dropped in Spring 01 and the game went on with a country not making any moves in all of 1901.

Why do you continue the game?
When the game has a Spring 01 NMR *no moves received, why not simply stop the game and restart with a new player. Are the points all that important>?

Another option may be to have a standing set of orders for Spring 1901 and they kick in when there are no orders and the player missing orders is immediately rejected and a replacement called. At least this way the game will not have a disaster start.

If the programer can deal with it there can be several options so that the starting 01 orders are not always the same for example:
Austria
A Budapest to Serbia 100%
F Trieste to Albania 100
A Vienna to: Galicia 50/Trieste 30/Budapest 20

"FINISH HIM!"
Does it ever bother anyone else from time to time how the game always cuts off at 18 SCs? Sometimes I'd really like to keep playing till the whole map is under my domination, or I'd like to keep fighting the winner tooth and nail. Also, it would be interesting psychologically to see how long some of the alliances that were in place at endgame hold up throughout postgame.

Ridiculous civil disorder country takeovers
It is truly stupid that someone is allowed to join a country that's going under(2 or less supply centers) and messing up the winning player's orders by joining late. This is habit of some that should be broken.

What happens when time runs out for a turn???
Simple Question...

When time runs out at the end of a turn, and you've entered moves, but didn't finalize them, what happens?

1-Do your units stay in civil disorder (all hold) even if you've enter non-finalized moves?

or

2-If you enter non-finalized moves, do units do those moves when time runs out?

Thanks!

attack move
hi,

im wondering about the outcome of this situation:
http://phpdiplomacy.net/map.php?gameID=5501&turn=4&largemap=on&nocache=4174dd

more specific, about kiel.
moves of germany were:
A HOL - KIE
A MUN S A KIE - BER
A KIE - BER
F DEN - BAL

the russian moves were:
A BER - KIE
F BAL - BER

from what i get, the army ber shouldnt bounce back the arme moving into kie from hol, as the army in kie attacked / moved into ber directly.
though, HOL was bounced back.

lemme know where im wrong :)

what is the exact formula for this so that I can understand a little better what people are talking about when they say they do not care about who wins as long as they get their points.

Kestas, please check the background of the players
There is something very weird going on in the game http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=4896

I took over CD France at autumn 1908 & started to maneuver my units. The whole time I have been in the game, Turkey (Happyfunball) has supported Italian (DirtyDiaperDicky) units, made aggressive moves against me & at the same time! each year surrendering his SC-s to Italians. There has been virtually no communication from Turkey nor Italy, except one response from Turkey which ended with the line .... you can lose buddy. Italy is going to have 18 SC very soon and you can't stop it. :)

Such behaviour has no rational explanation & at the very least it's a poor sportsmanship, but I'm afraid that there is more than that....
