Impending Potential Awkward Moment

I have, FOR HISTORICAL INTEREST ONLY, placed a hold on "Mein Kampf." Soon, I shall have the joy of checking it out as quickly as possible and hoping nobody will see me (my library system is self check-out). Anyone else ever have the fun of getting your hands on a copy?

Where Would YOU Nuke the World?

If you had one nuke, where would you let it off?

For the sake of this "game," you cannot give the same location as someone else, and for the sake of argument, the nuke is about as powerful as the Tsar nuke.

Is there any way for the players to choose countries, or do they *have* to be randomly assigned?

A modern variant idea

Having played Dip in person for quite a while along with several variants of it, I have often wondered why a variant has never made the game more 'modern' while maintaining the richness of simplicity.

Consequences of a multi-accounter infested game on Ghost Rating

Is there a way to keep the effects of cheating out of THE sites rating system?

Victorious (768 )
14 Aug 11 UTC

I had the 'pleasure' to meet an multi-accounter and end the anon game losing alone against his three accounts. Pointing at the histories, it was an easy job to persuade the moderators to ban the players. But how to deal with the games effect on THE ranking system of this site, the Ghost-Rating?

I understand from the acting moderator, there is no policy on undoing the results of flawed games. Would it not be essentialy, claiming it the most fair way of ranking players, to protect the ghost rating from cheating influences by removing the results of banned players from the list?

I dont know if it easy don or not, and if it possible with Ghost's sabbatical, but would it not be an desirable act?

The easiest way to do this would be to force cancel finished games won by multi's. Not overly difficult.

Jamiet99uk (1307 )

What about games in which a multi did not win, but shared in a draw alongside one or more non-cheats?

Victorious (768 )

not a lot of opinions about this subject i guess :(

Victorious (768 )

i think a won game definitely has to be canceled. Maybe drawed games should be formulated to draw-1 draws. So a 4 way draw changes into a 3 way draw etc. But i don't know if thats technicaly a possibility....

I will definitely render an opinion on this once I have had the misfortune to be caught up by it AND actually have scores to be affected by it. Until then, I can't speak from experience but still, it seems that the game shouldn't be counted against the victim. How that would go about, I don't know, but perhaps the writers of the score-tracking system should look into building something since this problem seems to be widespread.

Enemy in a Thread....Enemy in a GAME????

Recently learned that someone that I frequently disagree with in forum threads...you might even call him an "enemy" in the threads....took over a position in a game I was in. At first, per the normal course of Diplomacy...I tried to coordinate with him....and yet his moves were specific and aggressive....

Plumbing...

Of all home repairs, plumbing is the task that I despise *the most*. Water will always seek the easiest...and most annoying....path. I have ripped out carpet and laid down flooring, done electrical, painted, wall-papered, done gas lines....but off everything I do, **plumbing** is my nemesis. For any plumbing project, it is *three* trips, guaranteed, to the Home Despot..

What is YOUR least favorite home chore/repair?

A scenario that I'm unsure of - need explanation of results

If during spring I move an army into an SC province and then in autumn I move said army into another SC province but get bumped back from that second province, retreating back to the first SC province, would I still gain ownership of said first province even though I retreated back to it or would I, in that case, not have ownership of either SC province? Thanks for your input.

"Russia NOOO!!!"

This is the post game discussion thread for gameID=65556 . I was England, despite a good start (minus some early wonky mess up orders with my army that really didnt matter too much) I feel like I lost focus through half the battle and once france dropped out I was in an odd position. A strong juggernaught through most of the game. I was hoping and praying it would have crumbled earlier than it did and was just cringing as russia kept going west. Once his belly was popped it was over though.
