Paused Games...
OK, the mod email is filled with requests to unpause games. Here are some pointers to help us out in getting those games unpaused.

If you are playing for points... make sure its 101 or greater.
Too many Multis again... I'm not going to name names or point fingers since we can't but it's getting to the point where I am playing half the time with multis and losing an assload of points. They are getting even more clever and using a new "slave" account every few games. Watch out fellow fair players.

CONSERVATIVE MAN
Funny....the littel boy calls himself a "man",and yet so very often his posts are whiny, bitchy, little-boy posts asking for basic relationship advice. Since he knows mostly nothing about anything....should he have to change his name?


He is a dumbfuck, both poltiically and socially. How pathetic.....but I'm sure his Mommy is proud of him....<sigh...> (I hear she has a *firm grip* Isn't that right, eh? ConservativeMan???

The Compliment Thread
Given all the rage against various users, and bile that some members of the site like to throw around I thought it might be nice to have a thread were we can celebrate the good side of our community.

Which is to say pay the person above you a compliment.

Civil Discourse
I have always enjpyed civil discourse, where I can have a battle of philosophy, theology and history with someone while maintaining civil. With that in mind, I am thinking of going to a local mosque and asking if there is someone that would participate in an interfaith discussion. Are there others who enjoy this type of thing, or am I weird in this.

Can anyone critique my essay?
This is an essay for my English summer assignment. Note that I'm a sophomore in high school, so don't expect it to sound like an English major wrote it. Also, it's about a mentor of mine, dead or alive. I chose Jesus, and I hope that the atheists on here are unbiased enough to give a good review.

Thank you for your patience
I currently don't have mod status, and most of the mods are on vacations, so fortknox has been handling all the unpause requests himself.

Thank you for your patience while we sort this out. Remember, you can upause games yourself by all voting to Unpause ingame.

Can we program a semi-anon variant to decrease likelihood of multi and meta cheaters?
The variant will show who's playing but not what country he or she is playing. Then the players are able to spot metagamers and possibly multi cheaters right away.
Please give feedback on idea and feasibility.

Thank You, Geofram!
I just wanted to publicly recognize Geofram for sitting for me for an extended period of time in which I had no time to properly pursue my Diplomacy games. He stepped up when I didn't have anyone to ask and ensured my opponents had an opponent instead of a CD.

Why post this in the forum? He deserves the kudos, and anyone who thinks more highly of him for this is icing on the cake.

So ... what's the point of Gunboat?

I thought the draw of Diplomacy was supposed to be the wheeling, dealing and cajoling. I don't understand the appeal of taking away messaging.

Downtime info
The database was down for ~1 hour 30 minutes. I've added 3 hours to games to compensate.
The downtime was due to an automatic mysql update script but no script to restart the mysql service, which I've now added in. Apologies for the inconvenience

Registration
It is impossible to register to this game since the switch to the dedicated server, the validation page just refreshes. 6 of our group is already registered, but we cannot (and will not) start a game without the seventh member. If it is a browser issue, IExplorer, Firefox and Chrome are displaying this error.

Hope this will get resolved soon, I'm eager to play with my friends.

On these forum threads, I have been offensive, to say the least. As an excuse, I would say it was because I have political differences with people that offend me....but, as suggested, that is just an excuse.

150cc Live Diplomacy Club
Well given that the original thread slid into the depth I figured I'd start a new thread, and try and give a little life back to what I think was a promising idea: Essentially a high class live game club

Just going an official blurb to explain admission to our little club: The not yet started club page: http://sites.google.com/site/phpdiplomacytournaments/150cc-club

To get in to our little high quality club you need to be sponsored by an existing member, after which you'll probably go into the next introductory game, and be added to the list.

On a counter. If two members of the club voice complaints about a player, during the admission process. Then we will have a discussion about whether the player should get in or not. Between members who have played with said player. Should they wish too.

The final little thing. If you have a problem with a player who is already within the league for one reason or another, you are welcome to email me and we will try and resolve this issue.

This is a gentleman and gentlewomens club. That doesn't mean you can't swear. It just means you are expected to treat your fellow players with respect. Cancel if we have CD's and so forth. Should a player be causing problems simply speak to me and I'll have a word with the player.

Should I revive lots of complaints about a single player we may hold a public hearing in a thread to decide if they should remain or be removed from our list.

(Very posh and formal I know. Just trying to start things on the right foot. These are more guidelines then anything after all we're all here just to have fun with good players =) )

Finally a brief summary of the club:

Essentially this club is a group for people to assemble high quality live games without having to spend a fortune to keep players who might CD out. In addition it gives us a base of players who might be interested in some high stakes live games.

Our club encourages WTA play on the classic map, however there are no real restrictions on what sort of games you can assemble. So there we are, have fun everyone.

=)

06 Jul 11 UTC
Normally we've done it simply by the thread. Either we know at number of people are on and we offer up a game. Or we post a game notice on the thread, and then make it the day of or day before, and people join. That would be the sort of game that starts at a set time when we know we can get 7

I'm interested in joining. How exactly do I go about getting sponsored?
I am interested in joining this club as well, I mainly play live games and would like for established gentleman’s rules to be applied in games. I haven’t gotten a chance to play with most of the club's members but hopefully I can be let into an intro game and hopefully gain acceptance.
damian (675 D)
07 Jul 11 UTC
Getting sponsored is accomplished by having one of our existing members vouching that you're a good player that doesn't resign.

Hopefully we'll be able to run an intro game soonish. Though that depends on how many members have time at the moment.
I was wondering what happened to this. I would love to do a live game, but sadly I'm losing my computer for a few weeks because I'm shipping it to HP for repairs. In a few weeks I'll be ready to go for the summer though

damian (675 D)
08 Jul 11 UTC
Hopefully we'll have some other members around soon. Because I haven't played with most of you before.

Failing that we have almost enough for a live game, enough if a couple club members want to jump in and play. Which could be our little introduction thing.
trip (696 D(B))

I can vouch for Jesus. If I get a chance later, I'll run through my past games and see if there's anyone else I've played with who's looking for a sponsor.
