Not console-based games, but other online games similar to Diplomacy in that they are 'worth playing'..

Aimed at those of you who, frankly, make me incredulous as to just how many highly intelligent physics thinkers are on the site...so, Schrodinger's Cat--I understand that there's a cat, radioactive particles, a 50/50% chance the cat is dead or alive...or both...what are your thoughts? (And if that cat DOES blur the lines between the differentiation of states...well, YOU change every moment via experience...is there anything constant about us, or you as "you," for that matter?

Mafaldxxx has lost 109% of his games and survived 27% of his games, what's going on?

10 point buy-in, great for new players or those looking to get back into playing the game. we need 3 more players to join!

Any interest in one? If so I'll set one up, I'd like to play one, but I dont want to end up in one with some Gun Boat veterans and get my ass handed to me.

As I'm sure we can agree an AH/R alliance can be as powerful as any, but how in a gunboat game can Austria safely go about communicating this? Discuss.

Not posting cheating accusations is a rule. A mod pointed this out to me.

The venue is booked and it is wonderful!

I notice the BBC are now using in-page SVG content.
We've seen youtube/google et.al. pushing the standard over the last few years, but this is the first time I've seen a non-web company supporting the formats. Have we turned the corner?

Right now I'm pretty desperate. I'm Turkey, and I've got Italy, Germany, and what's left of Russia creeping towards me. Starting this turn Italy will start picking off my SCs, one by one. Can anyone help me out?

If this is against the rules, then pardon me; I looked through the FAQ and didn't seem to find an answer to it (that I understood)

I played through the game with some friends, but for the life of me couldn't seem to figure out support hold/support move. Can anyone tell me in clearer terms the difference between the two, and how to use them?

Interesting...I was wondering if it'd come to intervention--but to be honest, I'm GLAD the US and did so in this way--no troops, no occupation force, just batter them off the coast with one--and with friend England, two--of the best navies in the world--GREAT CALL by Obama in my opinion! Thoughts?

I'm sure this has been attempted probably several times, but has anyone successfully done the World variation for a 5-10 minute game?

gameID=49006. playing Turkey and a strange stalemate has set up. How long is too long to wait for England to eliminate France & Austria before offering to draw the game. No in game messaging disallows any communication. I would rather cancel than draw with 6 players still in.

I'm going away on vacation for two to three weeks and could really use a pause. Thanks in advance.

I've played a couple of world dip games and I've noticed that some countries are a lot harder to play than others: US for starters. Anybody have any thoughts? Are there any sort of win probability stats for countries in world dip?

is it?

How do I quit out of a game that I already started?

Since we have such a diversly-talented group, and a lot of us are around or past our college years, I thought it might be interesting to see who's who on the site...and to ask some inter-collegiate-major questions (such as, again, I MUST ask...WHAT is the actual, practical purpose of factoring and the quadratic equation--I asked MATH majors and THEY ahd no clue!) ;) So, step right up and enroll--name, rank, serial number--erm, Major--and one interesting experience!

I'm back from vacation ... haven't been playing for a couple of weeks now so I thought I'd set up some basic low pot new games to get back in the swing of it, one classic and one ancient ... links will be below

I know that some of you have been trying to reach me regarding the Leagues without getting a response. For those who want it I can make up some excuses but the real reason is that I have been deliberately ignoring you due to other commitments.
