Other Board Game sites
In my day, I have seen about 50 different sites for diplomacy or Risk. I was wondering if there were any other board game sites set up similar to this one.

"Huck Finn" Gets a Re-Write...AND THAT AIN'T RIGHT!
http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_newsroom/20110104/en_yblog_newsroom/huck-finn-gets-some-changes

So...not ONLY is this editing one of THE great novels of all-time, arguably THE definitive "Great American Novel," but I guess racism just never occured...the N-word and Native American slurs never happened, eh?

Android is a cool OS...
This new Droid X has the coolest new way to type called swype. You just slide your finger across the keys and it figures out the word from its dictionary. It's really quite good. Got a double letter? Just rub your finger over it before continuing and it will register the double so it knows god and good are different words. I just swyped this entire message.

WebDiplomacy: The Movie!
Yes, it's official: Hollywood is so bankrupt for ideas and has sucked every sequel and franchise and reboot of previous franchises totally dry, so there WILL be a WebDiplomacy feature film!

What should the plot of this epic be, who should direct...and which actors, past and present (because Hollywood stars never die, they just show up on Netflix) should portray each of us? ;)

How do you leave the game?
I totally messed up on one game, and I don't feel like playing that one.
Well, I saw some people leaving aside getting wiped out of the map, and I want to know how. Pls answer

or u be as annoying as physically possible and create as much chaos and havoc with your last unit as possible. This one time I survived 4 years with 1 unit as England, jumping from Scandanvia down to Iberia. good fun...

^^ Ideally you negotiate and move yourself into a position such that neither side wants to attack you, and thus you may yet survive

To leave a game you just stop playing. But, you really mess up the game for everyone else by leaving a void that some can exploit on others do not.

And, all is never lost until your last unit and home center is gone. At the least you can try to exact revenge on those that done you wrong.

Try moving towards the stalemate line so that your unit is more valuable

"I totally messed up on one game, and I don't feel like playing that one."

That is not an attitude that will make you popular on this site. Players resigning games can ruin the game for the other players. I would not want to play a game with you, if that really is your attitude. But since you are new perhaps you haven't thought it through properly. But think about it... what would it be like if every player had that attitude?

"Well, I saw some people leaving aside getting wiped out of the map, and I want to know how. Pls answer"

I don't understand what you mean? Could rephrase the question?

To answer your actual question, people get labeled as "left" when they haven't entered orders for two phases. But to do so is incredibly poor form, and I wouldn't want to play with anyone who would ever do that.
figlesquidge (2131 D)

^^Recon you do spyman. He wants to know how he leaves a game before his nation has been killed.

But yeh, the answer if you don't: fight on, you're not out until all your units are gone!

My appologies if this has been suggested before, but here is an idea for dealing with players who abandon games:

Create a flag in the players' profiles listed as "On Probation" and shows "Yes" when they abandon their country? Also create a criteria for new games that is "Allow players on probation"? If "No" is selected for that criteria, players on probation may not join the game, even the same game that they just left.

The length of the probation needs to vary. For example, it can be 2 weeks for the first offense, 1 month for the second offense, 2 months for the third, all the way to a year for Double Secret Probation. While on probation, they can only join or create games that do not allow probationary players. They are not removed from any other games they are currently playing, though.

Once the probationary period is over, the "On Probation" flag in their profile changes back to "No" and the player may join any game. Thus, those players who abandon games still have an opportunity to play, but it will probably be with other players who have abandoned games until they have "done their time".

The joy of editing on the fly. My third paragraph should read as such:

The length of the probation needs to vary. For example, it can be 2 weeks for the first offense, 1 month for the second offense, 2 months for the third, all the way to a year for Double Secret Probation. While on probation, they can only join or create games that allow probationary players. They are not removed from any other games they are currently playing, though.

I feel your pain. Sometimes when thing go horribly wrong (especially when due to misorders) the game can stop seeming fun. And some games drag on for months. But we have to take the good with the bad because when thing go right it feels so good.
