Replacement player unable to join
This issue relates to the following game:
http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=139971
We have had Russia being banned for multi-accounting apparently, and we were told by GameMaster to try to find another player, which was promptly done. However, the replacement player allegedly cannot find the "join" button for the game and therefore cannot join. Could we please get some guidance as to what we should do in this case?

Web based diplomacy or face to face???
I got to play f2f for the first time in 25+ years. It was quite enjoyable to have open banter with other players and fully articulate what your thoughts are, but after returning to the game so many years later and now playing on the web, with drop down menus and computer making the moves for you. I think I like the web better. I would however like to play f2f every once in awhile.

What's the community's thought?

Guys, there's too many serious threads here. We need some fun. Let's write a story.
OK, here are the rules.

One by one, we each add on to the story. You can only add one sentence at a time, and each post must be separated by at least one other post. Your sentence must be grammatically correct and within the realm of possibility. If we do well with this one, we might move on to something more outlandish. I'll post a final edit of each paragraph, time permitting, when we get enough. Have fun with it!

Yeah, taos that's all very well and good except for 1) you were wrong and 2) you broke the site's rules.

I strongly suggest you figure out a way to comprehend the above.

"I just wanted to complain for the mistake done and for silencing me when i was totally right."

You sound like a fucking ten year old. If you wanted to complain about something they did, why didn't you send them an email? You say you're grateful yet your way of showing it is an attempt to show them up publicly?

For the last time, you weren't right. The people you accused of cheating WERE NOT CHEATING.

@Taos
"Please don't misunderstand me."
I think the mods understand you quite clearly. Certainly most of the rest of us do, and we disrespect you for it. Indeed, if you should happen to get banned at some point, the "idiot" label wouldn't be out of place.

"I just wanted to complain for the mistake done and for silencing me when i was totally right."
Which, of course, HAD to be done publicly on the forum. It couldn't POSSIBLY have been handled in private. No, no, that would have made too much sense. It might even -- gasp -- have been more appropriate and in keeping with the site's rules. Even worse, it might have required you to get off your high horse and instead saddle up in one that was slightly lower to the ground (and also, possibly, more commensurate with your own mental stature).

And what, do you think the mods have some vendetta against you that they're LYING about the evidence they found and the reasons for taking the course of action that they took? Do you think they said, "You know, we're gonna let this slide. Taos over there, he's just way too touchy. He wants us to abide by the rules. Psh."? Really? Is that what you think?

Or do you just think they're incompetent? Do you think that, if they could only hear your words of brilliant insight once YOU had a look at all the relevant data, they would slap their foreheads and say, "Of course! We were complete morons. How can we ever thank you, Taos, for showing something that we were too stupid to notice in our previous searches. We apologize and wish we had listened to you from the very beginning. It would have saved us all the effort we wasted in investigating the claim, and then you wouldn't have had to go and break the site rules on repeated occasions and make yourself look completely ridiculous"?

You need to get over yourself, admit you were wrong, stop jamming your foot further down your windpipe with every new complaint you make, and move on with your life.

I won't be baned cause i don't cheat.
And emailed the mods during the game,got a response and didn't like it,wrote again.
After the game was over just wanted to discuss the issue, hoping that the players involved will explain their side but i was silenced

@outsidesmoker you are the idiot!
First for reviving a thread no longer relevant.
Second for calling me names when i didn't do it to you.
And finally for having an over opinion when you joined this site just a few months ago.

"First for reviving a thread no longer relevant."
Actually, your truculence and refusal to show any sort of contrition seems to make it pretty current to me.....unless you've apologized directly and personally to the mods in private. If you have, then I grant you the point, and I apologize. I also unconditionally retract my final paragraph. If, however, this is not the case, I maintain the totality of what I wrote.

"for calling me names when i didn't do it to you."
I don't think I went beyond what was warranted by the content of this thread. Others may disagree, however, and again, if there has been a reconciliation in private, then I withdraw my remarks and apologize.

"And finally for having an over opinion when you joined this site just a few months ago."
Yes, because age-long membership is required before I can express support for the moderators in a dispute with one of the members who refuses to stop lobbing unjust accusations at them. I may be out of line line with my commentary here, and if so, I will heed any moderators' warnings to that effect and desist. Or, again, if you have privately settled the issue, I will feel well-chastened for venting without knowing all the facts and not bring it up again. But this 3rd point of yours is irrelevant.

Dear taos,

On the point of it not being my place......I REALLY wish you were wrong, but you're in fact completely right. The moderators clearly don't care to pursue this any further, and probably didn't BEFORE my rant last night either), and therefore I apologize to you and to them for going vigilante on this. I will now proceed to radio silence on the matter.

Why F Mur?
Sorry if this question has been answered, I couldn't find it anywhere. In the Modern Diplomacy II variant, we have a fleet in Murmansk. But in the variant rules (that we link to!!!) there's supposed to be an army in Murmansk.

Why the change? It seems to me that it just gives Russia less options when Russia is already under a lot of pressure in the first year.
