It's my webDip Birthday!
I'm 5 years old and about to play my 100th game! I would like to invite friends, new and old, to play. To be eligible, I'd ask you make a donation to the site (of any amount). WTA 36 Hours non-anon. Express your interest below. And, of course, thanks to Kestas, the mods, and the peanut gallery for making this the best site on the Internet.

17 games, 17 players
Who's in? 17 world gunboats, one game as each nation, 50 hour phases, WTA, anon, ready-up preferred (but no means required), only prearranged pauses (example, if someone insists on a winter break pause, we will ask the mods to unpause at an agreed time if we don't unpause ourselves by then), 5 D bets for a total of 85 D buy-in. Who's in?

Balancing the map
Has anyone tried seeing what would happen if Albania was made into a supply center and Serbia was turned into an ordinary neutral? I would expect stronger wars between A/I and between R/T. Thoughts, please.

Unpause help
We paused a game (http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=111554), and now it will not unpause, despite if anybody pushes the unpause button.

Thoughts?

Are you like one of those disgusting mens rights activists? I mean out of all the ways to frame an increasingly sedentery culture overly reliant on technology, its framed that women arnt cooking and cleaning enough? really? Gross, I spit on your article.

I still don't understand the premise for feminism. If men are providing for you, how are things wrong? You probably can provide for yourself, but I don't get the need to 'break out of your bondage.' Thousands of years of human social evolution have given us a standard for the structure of a family. Sure, women can vote and wear all kinds of crazy clothes, but aren't women naturally inclined to care for the children? I don't care if you all don't want that lifestyle, that's your damn lot in life and you better get that straight. Stop being so flamboyant, stop thinking that you understand politics, 'cause you don't. You're a stupid woman. Stay in the house and keep cleaning. And what about that dowry, hm? YOU owe ME money, BITCH!

But people kill bakers as well so the balance is restored. On the other hand, people don't kill strudels.

@ Ulytau - YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT BAKERIES! THEY EAT STRUDELS DOWN THERE!
ulytau (541 D)
02 Mar 13 UTC
Sounds like bakeries with questionable profit margins though.

Face it, Draug, you can't fight strudels, it's a MAD situation. You eat a strudel and it kills you from the inside. Just try to salvage a draw and use the apples for cider or something.

Draws
Sifting through 10 pages of open positions, I am noticing that it's increasingly uncommon that people actually draw for a CD. In a few games, people have pushed for it, and others have seemed to have no understanding as to why they'd draw for a CD. Did this etiquette just disappear like magic? Pre-1903 CDs should *always* constitute a draw and post-1903 CDs should constitute a draw if they result in a loss of a line that would otherwise be present. When did this stop?

I just got an email today from Edi Birsan. Allan Calhamer, creator of the board game diplomacy, has passed away. His daughter said her mother "would welcome any memories/stories about Allan or thoughts on what Diplomacy has meant to you."
So please put in thoughts and memories about diplomacy and I'll collect them and send them to her.

For the easy payment of 15 D, you can enjoy the chance to rule the
world with The World Wide Schlieffen Plan. ( http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=111246 ) . If you can take 10 minutes out of you day for possible world domination, than this deal is for you. In fact this deal is just to good. I'm gonna have to put a time limit
of 7 days for this. I would wait that long though. there's only 13 spaces
