Question for Programmers
Im making an array, and I insert a value at a point in the array, and any unused area is assigned a zero. eg [7,3] and each previous cell gets a zero. My question is how do i write a method that deletes the excess zeros, but keeps the value. Later on, ill have to have it delete zeros when i have information in the first, third, seventh cell etc, and the rest are filled with zeros.

HEY JACKASS, VOTE DRAW
In case you missed it the first couple times. You cannot advance past the stalemate line, you're not doing anything to try, so stop dragging the game out and vote draw. For the bystanders: http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=40053#gamePanel

Bug?
In this game (http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=39585) Oz retreated a fleet from Dumont dUrville to Vostok (in spring 2003, retreats). It seems like a bug to me, but please enlighten me...

Signaling in gunboat games?
Can someone please explain any standard conventions that exist for signaling in gunboat games? Like...I think ordering a support hold to someone else's unit must mean something, but I'm not sure what.

Moves saved or ready
Hi, another newby question. If you have moves saved but not ready when the movement phase ends, will these moves be implemented, or will you be treated as having not entered any moves?

Is there any help page that explains how the webdiplomacy interface works, as opposed to the rules of the game? All I can find are the FAQ, the introduction, and the rulebook, none of which provide many details of this.

Live Games Tonight
Is there any interest in a high-ish pot live gunboat tonight? I'd set up a game and make it password protected. I'm thinking maybe 50 yen buy-in. Reply or message if this interests you.

What did I do wrong on this math problem?
I'm trying to find the equation of a parabola by using 3 of its points. The points are (1,6) (3,26) and (-2,21). I'm trying to find the form y=ax^2+bx+c. I worked out a to be 2.5, but the book says it is 3. You can find my work inside.

I am REALLY Losing Faith...
I am rapidly lost my faith in democracy--living through it the last decade plus, from the last couple disgraceful years of Clinton to Bush II's Regime to Obama's Bust (AND Ahnuld and our near-last education, jobs, etc. in CAL) right here in my home state, I now think maybe Plato was right...and Hobbes...I'm not advocating for "1984" or an Emperor or Reich here, but...well, all this bickering and I see FAR more hurt and waste than good...discuss?

You guys have one hell of a country - I can't see us in the states being able to pull off what you guys did anywhere *near* as smoothly. You should be *damn* proud of the bar you've set for the rest of us screwed up, selfish nations when it comes to caring about our citizens.

Newbie question re power allocation
Is this purely random when you sign on to a new game? I played by email before and you could set preferences for which power you wished to play at the beginning. There seems to be no such option here, or am I missing something? I'm wondering partly because I joined two games using a creaky old browser that didn't manage to load all parts of the interface.

Random, but weighted based on what you have gotten in previous games. so, say the random gets you England three times in a row. Each time, your odds are reduced so you are less likely to get it. But that same weighting applies to everyone, so if everyone in your game had Enlgand 10 times as much as any other nation, but you only 3 times as much, you'll probably still get England.
It starts out random, but as you play more games you are assigned to the powers you've played the least, such that, in the long run, your allocation of powers will be fairly even.

I don't like it, I wish you could set preferences. I can't play Italy for shit and I love Turkey/Russia/England.

The idea is everyone has to play everyone, thus making them more rounded players, more fair games and rankings/results more accurate.

Yea but it also deters one from playing. I don't play very often because I don't want to get a nation I'm bad at playing.
