Can you please look at game gameID=67986
Something isn't right. Countries didn't show minutes before a 5 min game started. Screwed things up for 5 of the 7 players.

Bug in mute feature
Not a big deal certainly, but when you open a thread and the first post in it was by someone you muted, the second post is missing a (CSS?) bar that's supposed to go at the top.

(Another) Honest Question:
Besides your own ethnicity...

What do you "think" of other groups, based JUST on the representatives of that ethnicity you've met? (OBVIOUSLY race =/= "good" or "bad," I know, but still, people do tend to trend towards different groups in my experience...so, being respectful of ALL groups and ethnicities--what do you think of them?)

Bye, everyone
My life has gotten very busy recently, and I have found less and less time to play Diplomacy with you all. I may not be back for some time (I will do my best to finish my remaining game). It has been very fun to debate various issues with you all. Thank you and goodbye for now.

Is this anything more than a jobs bill for expensive unionize labor just like the original stimulus bill was a jobs bill for unionized state employees? If you don't work in a union or you own a business that doesn't employ union labor do you exist in Obama's economic world view?

Mind the gap!
Does anyone else get the urge to fill in the holes in your territory? You know those islands of alien colour spoiling your empire. How far will you go - divert an army a move? Two moves?

My megalomania has no room for anyone else, it's the itch I have to scratch.

Yes, I do, but only if they have dots on them. I have this strong desire to collect dots. I might need to see a therapist on the issue because when I start a game, I have this overwhelming feeling like all of the dots belong to me and that everyone else is squatting on my land.
ulytau (541 D)

There's nothing worse than having a pink Clyde spoiling my Blue Isles, red Albania tainting the Yellow Peninsula and purple Finland destroying the integrity of Brown Scandinavia. Dots aside, the looks of My Empire is what really matters. How could I demand surgically accurate drawings of My Empire's borders from future pupils if there were abberations destroying the overall clean shape?

There should be an achievement for us empire builders. I mean, painting planets is one of the goals in Spore. Diplomacy is overall better than Spore but we need a feature creep to reflect the current defficiency in the area of incentives for painting the map one's own colour!

I also have a need to waste a move to eradicate other colors. I sometimes do it on what's sure to be the last turn of a game if I can waste the units, but all too often I do it way too early. I was playing the Haven variant on vdip and accidentally offended an ally because I didn't like a neutral colored non-SC square sitting by my empire. He had an SC next to it that he thought I was moving on.

Indeed. I won this game http://vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=3069#gamePanel on vdip, and then I stepped back and looked at the map. I was ashamed of myself. Clyde, Wales, North Africa, Apulia, Albania forsaken! Picardy, Silesia and Prussia sold to the enemy! What kind of victory was this? Was it a victory at all? Even if so, it was a Pyrrhic one, for all honor had been lost.
Absolutely. No perforations.

I have to admit there have been Turkish players I have almost gone to war with purely because they refuse point blank to get rid of that annoying bit of browny-red Albania that is the last remnant of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

The stubborn bit of purple that is Finland is the second most annoying, closely followed by a North Africa that somehow manages to go the entire game without being claimed by anyone.
