Zero Tolerance or Turn The Other Cheek?
I recently had an encounter with an annoying little twerp in which he crossed (in my opinion at least) the metagaming line. The question is should I bother to mention it to our already overworked mods? Should we attempt to crush all damaging forms of metagaming with an iron first, or should we ignore the more minor forms of cheating?

Performance issues
As a newbie I am not sure if I am doing something wrong or not, but I am seeing two performance problems that are quite irritating. I time out readying orders, and also every time I change pages on the site there is a delay of 10 seconds or so before I can do anything. Is this normal?

Proper English in diplomatic correspondence.
What is your opinion on using proper English in diplomatic correspondence as opposed to shorthand (like u = you, wanna = want to etc.) I am usually less likely to trust a shorthand player and prefer full English communications.

Mostly Irrelevant Question
So, I didn't think this would ever come up, but:

If you have an SC left, but it's not one of your home centres, and your last unit is destroyed, and then the game ends, what goes on your record? And are you considered defeated immediately? Or not until someone walks over to your SC and sits there over the winter?

"Rango" is Lousy
I like Johnny Depp. I think "Gilbert Grape," "Pirates otC I," "Ed Wood" and "Sleepy Hollow" are all very good. But I saw "Rango" today, misled by the generally good reviews, and found it dark, vulgar, violent, slow and fatally self-aware in an ironic, in-jokey way. If you loved it, peace to you. I did not.

Messages from Finished Games
Why do you not get notifications from these games?
WhiteSammy (100 D)
04 Mar 11 UTC
I seldom reopen the chat logs from games that i have finished after i see that they are finished. Mostly i just check the home page to see the most recent updates on games that i am in and never even bother to actually open the games in progress if i have no moves or messages.

Is there any reason to not get message notifications from old/finished games?
Alderian (2425 D(S))
04 Mar 11 UTC
I'm not sure. It has always been that way. I would guess that it is quicker to only check for messages in active games than to search all old games.

It has been suggested that it would be nice to at least get the message notification for two phases worth of time after the game ends which would allow for post-game conversation. And to open up the global chat once a gunboat game completes. But you know, we take what we get on this great free website.

Opening up global chat once a gunboat game ends is a great idea.

I don't know much about programming - is coding a detail like that an arduous process?
Sargmacher (0 DX)

And I second your final point - for a free website, it's really great :)
gigantor (404 D)

Depending on the way it's set up, opening up global chat after a gunboat could be very awkward (and ugly) to code. But I don't know enough about this site, or php, to give you a proper answer.
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
04 Mar 11 UTC
I suspect the reasons are twofold:
1) Easier to code
2) Don't have to worry about being flooded with messages from old games.

However, as people have mentioned, it would be nice if you got message notifications for a year or so after the game ends.

Country assignments
A group that I play with are moving our correspondence game to web diplomacy. Normally, we switch country assignments between games so people don't have to play as the same country twice in a row. Is there a way to manually select who plays as what country or can it only be done randomly?

Readying orders.
I'm in an anonymous gunboat (might be a tautology, still new-ish) at the moment with someone who saves his orders but never readies them, as there are 24 hour phases where most people are finished after around 10 or so this this could be getting quite annoying if it continues throughout the game. Just wondering if there's any way to communicate that it would be good for them to ready them?

Fear or greed?
The Sage of Omaha once said that investors should try to be "fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful." Which tendency, if either, tends to govern your Dip play, especially when you divert from a long-range plan (i.e. to stab earlier than you had hoped)?

This Time On Philosiophy Weekly: "What Do YOU Think Heaven And Hell Are Like, Then?"
That's a question I got on the bus this week, and it's been on my mind ever since, sort of simmering there...just when I think I'm happily ready to watch a movie, on comes Hamlet and instantly he's talking about this and that about death and there the question is again, so I put it to you as well, WebDip members--play Dante. If YOU could have your perfect, 100% version of what the two "afterlives" are, what would each be like? Is it anything to be excited about?

Help! Tips on Starting?
Tomorrow at school we are playing diplomacy as a class(not webdiplomacy, actual diplomacy) and everyone thinks that because I play webdiplomacy, that I am a big threat. Although I have made alliances, I do not know who will actually live up to that and I'm afraid that if I get targeted by everyone, I will lose and then I'll get a C for the grade. I'm playing as Austria-Hungry so does anyone have any tips on how I should start out?
