Maybe Diplomacy should have three types of forces. The army/fleet system is lacking. I vote to include a marine corps into the mix. These forces could move on water or land, but could only travel a certain distance from the coast.
Allan B. Calhamer and the 50th Anniversary of Diplomacy
Our game's creator: Allan B. Calhamer ((ABC nickname in the 60's)) will be at the World DipCon at Origins=Columbus Ohio at the end of the June. This is a rare opportunity to come and meet him. So mark you calendar, It would also be a great opportunity to have a rally of as many phpdiplomacy people as possible. Contact me for more info EdiBirsan AT astound DOT net
Obviously people shouldn't be able to quit a game once it has begun, but I just hit "enter" with a link highlighted and accidentally joined a 1hr per turn game. Shouldn't there be a way to withdraw from a game while people are still joining?

......is to promote people's freedom to live as they wish, providing they do not stop another from so doing. Thus we should prohibit murder, rape and theft as they effect the victims freedoms."
If at first you don't succeed try, try again! This time the buy-in is 101 points - just enough to keep from having to worry as much about multi-accounters joining up. 24hr phases - PPSC. Free Tea this time since no one wanted the coffee =)
In light of problems with people joining in time for leagues and tournaments, a concern over people getting pissed over CD Italy and Germanys and variants that end in draws that people would rather not count on their stats. I think we should have a /cancel global chat feature which ends the game with no statistical consequences and returns the points to the players who entered. Braveheart pitched a similar idea that allowed this to happen in 1901 but I don't think we should limit ourselves having played in a number of variants recently that have hiked my number of draws up.
I don't think this is a priority, nor do I have the programming skills to implement it myself. But I'd like to facilitate some discussion on it because I feel it solves a couple problems people have been having.
I think canceling games before they start is a good idea, I had 3 games up with 50 php buy in and no one joined any... I wish I coulda cancled em got my paints back and joined other games which are now closed
It is also helpful in some cases to allow cancel or drop for an individual player in the beginning. I was setting up private games and wrong people joined.
