A question: Who are we online?

This is a general question, or even debate based on why we change who we really are on the internet, and the reasons behind it.

Hyperactive Jam,

are you out there?

You were next in the queue for this game.

If anyone else would like to join, leave you name below and I will send the link if Hyperactive Jam does not respond...

The theme of the game is heavy press: a lot of communication, so please think about your interest in that direction. We are likely to see essays being written at times in this one.

I didn't realise you had so few points...

I chose 47 because it left me with 202 - that would allow me to join those 101 games that seem so popular.

Anyway: good luck...

i like spending points, i should collect them more xD for these kind of events - oh and for the record, i've never been in a press game, so a little introduction or explanation on how we do it, that would be awesome.

if left to my own devices, i'll just bore everyone by forging my turns into a strategic novel like story heh ^_^ but seriously, i would like to know how we do things, do we just debate tactics or something, because i know a lot of strategic warfare ...
cgwhite32 (1465 D)
07 Apr 08 UTC
The reason I asked if people were interested was that I was getting involved in too many games where opponents were giving one word answers to lengthy discussions from me. Now I know I can be a tad boring at times, but that really isn't on!

Basically, try and discuss things in as much detail as possible, write to all players, rather than those next door to you, and discuss things off topic as well. There are no rules!

That's it, I've had it. I'm so freakin' tired of going from diong great in my games to doing shitty, just by missing one freakin' turn. I really need to hear some of you agree with me that we need some longer deadlines.

Intensive Press Game
I would be interested in starting up an intensive press game. This is not for the faint hearted, and would involve only those who have the time to post at length about tactics, as well as life, the universe and everything. The idea is to get dialogue going, not to have one word answers to discussions of tactics, which happens all too frequently.

If you are interested, please post below. It would also be for a mid-ranking pot to spice thing up a bit.

WTA doesn't work - so I guess that's it.
This is a long complaint, a whine if you wish, and most of it is a re-emphasis of my philosophy that Diplomacy should be all about playing to win.

Please don't bother reading this if you aren't interested, it will waste 10 minutes of your life you will never get back. There is a serious debate to be had here, if all you want is to abuse me then start a new thread called "Noodlebug sucks" or something.

My complaint is against a class of people who play in games but do not try to win them. These people have a completely different philosophy to mine. I do not agree with them, but they have a right to play the way they play. I just wish they would stick to PPS games to do it rather than ruining WTA games...

Not only is it sad... But it's filled with hatred and false information. There is nothing good about it... It's just a bunch of kids peeing in each other's Wheeties.

Noodlebug sucks
i could agree to let you win in that particular game you're complaining about. you said your two options are a) agree to a draw (still open), b) fight to the death (probably meaning try to win, right?)

now you have c) france & italy let me win, i win after a long time, and i'm happy

Bug?
During the retreat phase, when a country has nowhere to retreat their unit it is automatically destroyed.

yet the game doesn't resolve it like that, it waits for the person to disband and finalize the order, or for the time limit to pass and it automatically disbands.

Is there an arguement for keeping it as is?

Question: Retreating
Have a quick question. If I were to attack Finland from St Petersburg, with aid from Sweden, would the retreating army be allowed to retreat to St Petersburg? Please not that there is occupying foces in Norway and Sweden, but the army in St. Petersburg is coming into Norway, leaving that region free.

Why I love Trolling
It's such a rush posting controversial but totally irrelevant threads which are supposed to show everyone how cool and unconventional and nonconformist I am, it's just such a shame that people read them and shake their heads and think "what a numpty." Because I'm daring and challenge authority at every turn and don't obey the rules because I'm too cool for school, I use rude words like a three year old to show how grown up I am and I encourage anti-social behaviour which will solve all society's ills by making bread £3 a loaf because the stores have to cover the cost of idiots like me stealing it, which of course forces more people to have to earn more money to feed themselves and become mercenary consumer slaves to the capitalist system so that I can make them feel even worse about themselves while Daddy bails me out yet again next time I go too far.
Of course I'm jealous of those real revolutionaries who are actually out there doing genuine protests and standing up for their beliefs and quietly getting on with living an ethical life without feeling the need to broadcast it to everyone, but I don't have the time because I'm too busy spreading the message to all the people who don't want to hear it. Because if the revolution is going to come, the people who are going to start it are obviously the people who play internet strategy games, and besides the moderators kicked me off all the serious anti-capitalist and environmentalist websites because they said I was "off message". They're all wrong and I'm right because I know I'm right and it's not about how many people agree with you it's about how much you believe in yourself. And yeah some people are genuine fruitcakes but not me because I talk sense.
