Being as my one crashed game resulted in a disband that guarantees my elimination this year, I am taking a hiatus (possibly permanently) from this site. As soon as my remaining games are complete, I will be signing off.

According to the website, this is my 904th post recorded since...well i dont remember the date exactly. Who here has the most?

Hi all, I've played diplomacy a few times before but just signed up here so I figured I'd say hi. I had a couple of questions about the way the site works ...

Before, when I came to the forum page I would middle click on each open button to open each forum post and then once they were all open I'd start going through them.

Could these get fixed? Many thanks!

Extra irony points if it happens to this thread too!

So "Left" indicates a CD now, or is that an NMR? Or is "Left" something else and I just haven't found a CD yet?

See message inside thread for details.

If that is the case: Damn it.

Game crashed earlier, now it's uncrashed but it skipped the build phase and went right to the spring

Hi Kestas,

I'm going on a trip up to New England for the weekend, and I won't be able to get on a computer. I'm leaving tonight, so I won't have enough time to ask for a pause and find a sitter if it doesn't work out, so can someone sit my account for me? I've got three early stage games going on, so if someone could help me out here I'd appreciate it. My email is in my profile.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this before or if it's intentional but when I click on the "Games" link at the top of the page, it now takes me to all "active games" rather than my games as it used to. I much preferred the old behavior.

Thank-you to whoever took my advice and got rid of the widescreen effect.

What would happen if I were to have 3 units, 1 sc, and input the same order twice? As in, destroy belgium, and below that, destroy belgium?

I see several complaints about the new looks and how distasteful someone might think they are. Frankly, I’m not one to welcome large visual changes, and I will miss how simple PHPdip was, but the new style will grow on me whether I want it to or not. However, this long-winded post is not about the aesthetic changes, it is about how one change in 0.9 has changed the way we’ll play Diplomacy together…

Dear People with More Intimate Knowledge of Programming and the New System Than I Have,

Please see inside.

We have several (three, in point of fact) players in our game who have not been seen since early June. We just managed to get the game unpaused thanks to the intervention of the moderators. At 72 hours per phase, it will be some time before these players drop off on their own, and forcing CD will allow them to be replaced all the faster, making the game better. Is this possible?

New game, 30-hour phase length, 15 point bet, please join!

That's right, diplomacy! Huzzah for url changes!

Did the update change the way retreats and then unit placing is handled? In one of my games I just retreated, and then had to destroy a unit. When we got to the unit-placing/destroying phase... my retreated unit isn't showing up on the map (though it is showing up as an option to destroy). Just trying to make sure I'm not about to lose TWO units.

PPSC, 24 Hours Phases, 20 Pt Buy-in, anyone is weclome

Alright, in the game "Medium Stakes" , I should be able to issue orders for unit placement... but, under time till phase completion, it just says crashed. What does this mean? Am I missing something, or..?

The game ''Total war: phpDiplomacy'' (http://www.webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=12274) just skipped the build/destroy units phase. I would please some admin to set back one round...

Thanks

When the build turn started the game crashed so i was unable to enter a build. When it was fixed it went straight to the next turn so I'm going to be down a unit for the next year.

Can a mod fix this for me?

I made a 0 pot game last night. I'm pretty sure thats not supposed to happen. But it would be cool if we had games that didn't take up any of your points. That could open up a bunch of doors.
