Etiquette / Introducing a friend / playing in the same game

How do you handle the minefield of introducing your mates to the world of Diplomacy whilst staying within the rules? Are there any guidelines that mods / experienced players can offer on this?

Snow Storm

How did people fair in the snow storm? We lost power for about 24 hours. Roads are still pretty cluttered with trees and most of the surrounding towns (that don't get power from the University) are still out of power.

Cancelling the Masters

Unless someone has talked to TrustMe or compiled a list on their own and knows what's needed, I plan on cancelling any paused Masters game this Thursday. I'm not really willing to reverse engineer each game to figure out what he was planning. It's been left in the fridge too long, time to throw it out.

Jesus=Socialist?

Someone I happen to see nearly everyday insists that Jesus was a socialist and/or advocated the philosophical and moral grounds/justifications for instituting socialism. I oppose socialism, but am not particularly religious, and thus not really angered by this statement; nevertheless, many Christians I know have been angered by this claim. Discussion/debate?

Six of the Best

Politicians get a lot of bad press in the modern age, and sadly a lot of it is deserved. The vast majority can be safely ignored without any risk of missing anything remotely interesting or useful to our lives. But in the sea of mediocrity float a few stars, a small number of voices that are worth noting. My question is: which politicians still have the power to make you stop and listen? Lets see a list of six of your best!

Ahhhh....I remember it well. If only that stupid western triple hadn't formed I could have completed gutting you like a fish!! And for the record, I DO think Austria and Italy should ally together =)

303 point buy-in works for me.

Babak (26982 )
29 Oct 11 UTC

how the hell did you guys convince everyone to draw that game??? that is NOT an honest-to-goodness 7way draw... that's pretty silly for spring 1904!

MM, you are more than welcome to it... I'll be back in a few months ;)

MadMarx (36299 )
29 Oct 11 UTC

Babak, all I can say is that a 7way draw was not silly for the Italian.

Okay, Babak, see you next year, if I'm still around then! ;-)

This is great, its like everyone is revving their engines on the start line, warming up for the race. I said I'd give 24 hours to veto 303

. Weekends often not great to start anyway. PM later today

Jacob (2711 )
29 Oct 11 UTC

We all had too many points risked in that game for that time and everyone was so scared to lose them that big alliances formed early. You can see that we were all camped out right on the stalemate line. It was legit, if frustrating.

And MM, if I remember correctly, at that time I had Jefe in my back pocket. We had played several games together and he seemed to trust me implicitly. It seemed like a good idea to use that to my advantage and try to get rid of a dangerous opponent at the same time =)

MadMarx (36299 )
29 Oct 11 UTC

Jacob, for the record, I will never play in a game with you and Jefe together again, no fair stacking the deck! :-P

Babak, when I said "honest-to-goodness" I meant that it wasn't a restart (before we could cancel games) and everyone in the game was convinced they could not proceed. Anyway, it boiled down to a Western Triple against an Eastern Triple and some sorry-ass Italian that was clinging to that stalemate line and barking at each Triple with very little bit, so even though a pathetic outcome, I still have fond memories of coming out alive.

Jacob (2711 )
29 Oct 11 UTC

I think I rode the Jefe train as far as it could take me...

I'm just looking forward to this game. Martin.. Where's my pw?? Let's do this!

Babak (26982 )
29 Oct 11 UTC

this banter is indeed awesome. I'm only sorry I wont be a part of this game =( it would have been nice to get in. I saw MM also had an invitational, I missed that boat too.

but I will say, I have found I have a LOT of extra time during the week these days. kinda cool hahaha.

alright... i'll check back into webdip in a week or so and hopefully the link will be around then so I can see how things are going ;)

@Babak, quick question, are you hiding your points somehow? When I look at your profile it says you have 23,000 some but on the forum you show as only having 100. Just curious.

Hmmm... Nevermind martinck1, sorry...

I will join around noon EST on Sunday, roughly 17 hours from right now, but don't let that stop most of you other guys from joining. See you then, this game will be very fun, I very much look forward to it and the challenge it will be, good luck to all!

Jacob (2711 )

MadMarx (36299 )

Wow, everyone has joined but me... So, I guess everyone can plan on the game starting right around noon eastern (USA) time on Sunday...

Someone not unpausing a game

Ok so i am in a game currently that has been paused for about 3 weeks now. We as a group decided to pause it for one of the players playing was needed elsewhere in life. however, now we are wanting to unpause it and get the game moving, however our persia is not unpausing it. i believe it may be because he is losing....i am not sure how to proceed with this because it is my belief he will not unpause the game. What should we do about this game?
