I'm in. There should be a page that has anyone who is unshaven or bearded. And how long are they unkempt. Who likes this? That way sexyness can be shown.

I've heard Playdip has variants and junk. Why do we hang out on Webdip? I can't recall my own reason.

Did webDip never have that domain, did they let it expire or is this their sale?
I suppose webDiplomacy.com can be a lucrative domain for reasons other than the boardgame, but it still seems doubtful that they'll make a sale for 2095..

webDip was originally phpDiplomacy.net and it kept to .net to stay familiar to its original users. It's possible that it's also because it was cheaper to buy initially.

I think the vast majority of users familiar with webDip know that it's .net (or just have it autofill - pretty much every browser does that now) and new users don't come via direct url, they tend to be referred from Google or Reddit or the like. It's certainly not worth that much to buy a domain name that isn't needed, especially since the site runs off donations - wasting that much on something needless is not something webDip can afford to do.

webDiplomacy.com should become a crowdfund project for all the people who hate the moderators here. they can code their own game site and play happily ever after.

What makes you so smart?
Either y'all are looking shit up before you post or some of you have way too much walking-around knowledge. It's pretty impressive. So really, what makes you smarter than the 99%? (I want to hear about schools, majors, studies, publication.) This question is directed only to people who've written something intelligent. (Sorry, Capt-Brad)

Italy: What Are The Benefits?
In response to a thread I posted earlier, titled, "Italy Opening Strategy: Early Attack on France?," I decided to post another thread regarding Italy. Italy is the slowest nation to develop, and also the hardest to win with. Are there any benefits to playing Italy? What advantages does Italy have over other players?

Anybody play live games anymore?
When I started on this site years ago, everybody and their mama was playing, a lot of live games happening. I took a few years off and now that I'm back there seems to be a huge drop off in total games being played, and there are NO live games at all. I havent seen one I havent created. None of mine ever get full, or even a few people. What the heck happened?

Alternative French Openings
I'm not a huge fan of playing as France. To be honest, it bores me compared to Germany or Austria. We just had a solid thread on Italian strategy, specifically unexpected opening strategies. What opening(s) have you tried that varied from the norm, and what was the result?

Incorporating WWI Strategies Into Diplomacy: Could It Work?
Diplomacy is set in WWI. Even though it is up to players to play how they like, might it be sensible and feasible to incorporate real-world strategies and plans from WWI into the game? For example, could Germany try the Schlieffen Plan against France? Should Italy go straight for Trieste, as it did in WWI? And should Russia seek to defend Serbia against Austria-Hungary? Thoughts?
