Boycott News International
Do boycotts work? Should we boycott a pape and their sister papers and put in jeperdy the careers of innocent workers? Should we support advertisers pulling their adverts and protest against companies who don't pull their ads?

Game will start on next process cycle
How long is a 'process cycle' concerning a live 5 min/phase game?
I just ask because I joined such a game and ended up CDing against my will after waiting for 2 hours for it to start.

Diplomacy strategy articles?
I'm pretty familiar with openings... and general concepts for the mid and late game... and have read the articles available on these topics in the Diplomatic pouch (diplom.org) and the Diplomacy Archive (diplomacy-archive.com)... Where can I learn more about more specific strategies beyond the openings in 1901? Or, at least, where can I find more good articles beyond these two sources? Thanks!

Default settings when creating a game.
I'm sure it has been asked before, but humor me: why is WTA not the default setting for creating a game?

I never understand why serious people consider throwing their games, but now I do.
The thought that Germany or Russia would share the draw in gameID=63906 is just appalling. Better to hand a victory to the one player who has put up a decent game...

How do you contact a MOD to UNPAUSE a game. Seems we have some folks who will not UNPAUSE to force a DRAW.

Waffen SS
If it was August 1939, and you were a German, Aryan male aged 22 and were offered to join the SS (and you had no knowledge about what was to come) do you think you would have been smart enough to say no? Or would you have been sucked in by the lucrative notion of getting to wear that stylish uniform?

I Have An Honest Question Here...
This one's bugged me for a while, really, and I've just got to ask it:

If you believe God sent Jesus to die for our sins or that Jesus wanted to die for our sins and save us and all that...why? If he/they/both are God, ie, almighty, why not just "waive the debt," rather than self-mutilate? And why would either care at all? (and "because he loves us" is NOT a valid answer...somehow Hell + Pain On a Cross =/= LOVE to me...)

Overall, I felt I played well and certainly tied up most of Germany's forces. Great back and forth in the west, Germany. As for the east..... facepalm.

I play by the three goals: win, draw, screw the one who kept you out of the draw...

I tried to signal peace with turkey several times, I admit that I was part of the chaos in the early game, but when germany started crossing the stalemate, I supported myself out of aegean with no effect. I dislodged a turkish fleet in ven to a forced retreat, I dislodged another in neutral waters in adr, but you chose to retreat to albania?! a total useless unit when you needed the armies against germany.

I admit that it was a somewhat ballsy move to send my unit to aegean later on, but it was a single fleet, naples held, I send it in between two of your fleets for a disband so I could build an army instead - Turkey shifted all of his front back against me! even when I disbanded the fleet and build two armies, he kept coming at me, so it was clear that turkey did not want me as part of the draw, and I did the only thing that would hold turkey out of the points as well - give the solo to germany.

Congratulations Germany, I am sorry France - and Turkey... see you another time around :)

Barn3tt (41969 D)
15 Jul 11 UTC
Per- It took a long time for you to get Turkey to desist and start fighting the German with you. I think the move to the Aegean was an unnecessary risk. He obviously misread your intentions. Just my two cents.

Per Olander (1651 D(B))
15 Jul 11 UTC
yes, but even after that turn I did several things to signal the wished dislodgement - naples held when ion moved to aeg, they kept bouncing over ion for two turns, I disbanded when eastern was open for retreat, I build two armies right afterwards... I know the move was risky in the first place, but I would like to hear turkeys thoughts on the whole eastern situation?
