A challenge to Babak
This is to be found in the Cut-Throat "Hosted" GR Challenge Game thread. Read below.
Cachimbo (1181 D)
21 Nov 11 UTC
Like I said before: I've been so involved in the whole story leading to these games being set up that I believe I ought to play a game with you and Slyster. It would be wonderful, however, if Babak could be convinced to join. I believe I've put much of an effort in replying to some of his incendiary comments, and I've never heard back from him. I do know that he doesn't like non-anon though, so I'd put my vote in for an anon game (especially with Sly on the board). So, to be clear:

@ BABAK: I challenge thee to take part in this game opposing, at the moment, MadMarx, Slyster, Draugnar and myself.

Should you ignore this challenge, I will take great offence and throw a wild fit in the confines of my office. Wild, I say, wild... !
Cachimbo (1181 D)
21 Nov 11 UTC
Bump.
I will make sure that this doesn't disappear before I get some sort of response.
Cachimbo (1181 D)
22 Nov 11 UTC
Bump again.

I'm not going anywhere Babak! ;-)

Try PMing him, he said he was going to take a break from the forums.
Cachimbo (1181 D)
22 Nov 11 UTC
Good idea!
Cachimbo (1181 D)
22 Nov 11 UTC
PM sent.

@MadMarx: Let me know if you get an answer from our man.
Babak (26982 D(B))
22 Nov 11 UTC
lol. attention gotten and response sent.

I can't keep up with the forum and all the other things going on in RL. and the spat over the MM "solo" really did have me disgusted enough to not want to talk shop for a little while. I still would prefer to not get drawn into the forums for a while longer.

but long story short, I'll play in that game. but hopefully in a week after the TG weekend is over.

Great news. This should be another great game for us all to see.

I was going to take a break, but I would love to play in the game with Babak, MM, Cachimbo, and D if you'll take me.
Cachimbo (1181 D)
22 Nov 11 UTC
This will also be posted in the other thread (see above).

We have a game which most certainly include:

Babak
MM
Cachimbo
Slyster
Draugnar

The two other spots are also possibly taken, though there are some kinks to work out. Should there be an opening, I have a list of candidates (ranging from Sarg to Zultar).

WTA, anon, 48h phases, dip points to be determined.
MadMarx (36299 D(G))
22 Nov 11 UTC
I do see a major problem. I will recognize slyster immediately if the game is anon. Cachimbo and slyster will recognize each other immediately. We cannot play this anon, since a number of people will know who is who, it must be non-anon, which may not fly with Babak. Also, if I pull Crazyter in, the two of us will identify each other quickly if anon. Thoughts?
Cachimbo (1181 D)
22 Nov 11 UTC
I'm fine with non-anon.
Babak (26982 D(B))
22 Nov 11 UTC
i'll live with one non-anon game.
Cachimbo (1181 D)
22 Nov 11 UTC
Very well! It's settled then.

Babak
MM
Cachimbo
Slyster
Draugnar
Crazyter ( ? )

The other spots is also possibly taken, though there are some kinks to work out.

WTA, NON-ANON, 48h phases, 200 dip points
Babak (26982 D(B))
22 Nov 11 UTC
Cachimbo - how about Jacob for the 7th?
Babak (26982 D(B))
22 Nov 11 UTC
and Draug can't do 200. though I'd be fine with lending him the points if a mod is able to transfer it.
Cachimbo (1181 D)
22 Nov 11 UTC
What points Babak? You're at 0 !!!

;-)
zultar (4180 DMod(P))
22 Nov 11 UTC
No chance for me to get on this list?
Cachimbo (1181 D)
22 Nov 11 UTC
You're currently 3rd on the waiting list Zultar.

Either way, you're on my invitation list for the soon to come Cachimbo Invitationals.
Draugnar (0 DX)
22 Nov 11 UTC
@Babak - how are you going to play when you have zero points?
MadMarx (36299 D(G))
22 Nov 11 UTC
I think Babak has stashed away a few points in some sort of retirement fund.
jmo1121109 (3812 D)
22 Nov 11 UTC
Search all joinable games by highest points first and you'll be able to see the game called retirement fund, lol, I think MadMarx is the only one who can see it w/o a search since you can't normally see games too expensive for you.
Draugnar (0 DX)
22 Nov 11 UTC
That's brilliant! You just have to reset it every 10 days and cancel it whenever you want to pull some points out. Truly brilliant Babak!
Draugnar (0 DX)
22 Nov 11 UTC
And I see it is anonymous so it doesn't show the points as being in play.
yebellz (729 D(G))
22 Nov 11 UTC
I wonder why Babak did that. Tired of the high profile position?
Draugnar (0 DX)
22 Nov 11 UTC
Well, it gives him the diplomatic puppet label on his account so newcomers to the site don't think twice about playing him. <grin>
Babak (26982 D(B))
22 Nov 11 UTC
Cachimbo - I have a very well performing 'Retirement Fund' that I can cash at any point. Very good terms really. ;) you should consider using this 'dagger' vehicle for your extra cash :)
Babak (26982 D(B))
22 Nov 11 UTC
wow - really should have refreshed before responding.

no reason really yebellz. A week ago I decided to pull back from the forums and thought this was a good step to take... serves no particular purpose ;)

"Deadzone in the Amazon"!

http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=73022

The game has been created and passwords sent.
48h phases, non-anon, WTA, 125 pts buy-in.

I've set the game to start in 6 days.
MadMarx (36299 D(G))
23 Nov 11 UTC
Hey, Cachimbo, what's the connection with the Amazon? Last March when I went on a mission trip to Peru, we spent a night in the Amazon jungle, and our project was in Iquitos near the headwaters of the Amazon, so I expect I'll win this game fairly easily due to my recent personal experiences down there, probably by 1904, 1905 at the latest.
Cachimbo (1181 D)
23 Nov 11 UTC
Lol!

If you look at the highest peaks, just south of the middle of the Amazon jungle, almost flat in the centre of south America, you should understand the reason for the title of this game. There's a town there...

The Absolute Truth
No, this is not a discussion on absolutes. It is an experiment. I wnt to play a diplomacy game in which all players must tell the truth, and nothing but the truth, to their fellow diplomats. I think it could make for a very interesting game. Lies by omission would be acceptable, and trying to mislead someone without lying is certainly encouraged. Would anyone else be interested in such a game?

The Democratic-controlled Senate has not produced a budget in more than 930 days.
This makes is hard for Obama to run with any credibility at all against a "do nothing Congress" when his own party hasn't done even its most basic job in the Senate for over two years.

WorldDip map
Hello all

Haven't played here before. Was wondering if there was a different style map for the world game. Finding it difficult to read country/province names in the darker spaces and can't read in the dark blue FA spaces at all.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

How do you find a bloody password?
As I understand it password protected games are typically posted in the forum. You see the game and then go look in the forum for the post with the password but without a search function how do you find it?

Question for Tettleton's Chew
Seeing as you continuously start threads about how the left is continuously wrong and flawed forever, explain the following question to me. Why did this financial meltdown the world is currently experiencing come under a right wing president of the United States. The housing markets were obliterated, the debt of the United States and Europe went through the roof, and the stock markets still have not recovered all their gains.
