A Tribute to Mr. Calhamer
Draugnar pointed out that this is the creator of Diplomacy's 80th birthday coming up this December 7th and I've got an idea on how we can say thanks in a way that shows him just how many and how far his game has captured across the world.

Hypothetical move
Let's assume that St. Petersburg is surrounded. Norway and Finland are going to support Barents Sea in. Armies in Livonia and Moscow could support the hold in St. Pete's, but a German army may cut Livonian support. If St. Petersburg hits Norway to cut support, and Moscow supports Livonia into St. petetersburg, would everyone bounce?

Weird glitch.
I imputed my orders. And none of them went through. Does this happen often. It has caused me to drastically change a game that I was winning.

What to do?
I am also playing on another Dip site that shall remain nameless and have noticed from looking at game history that 2 of the players in my game almost always play together and seem to always be allies. What should I do?

Are discussions of banned players allowed on the forum?
Obviously cheating accusations aren't, but I seem to recall hearing that we're allowed to discuss players banned for cheating openly, and I'm curious as to the story behind some of the recently-banned players... seems like some familiar names are out.

I'm new to diplomacy and I have a question regarding the rules.
I was wondering why in this game Spain was able to dislodge Gascony and Gascony wasn't able to dislodge Marseilles? http://webdiplomacy.net/map.php?gameID=69489&turn=7&mapType=large
AlexNesta (239 D)
15 Nov 11 UTC
Check your orders: The army at Burgundy support move to Gascony from Marseilles. (fail)
That explains it...
Babak (26982 D(B))
15 Nov 11 UTC
yup. if you had supported gas to mar, you would have succeeded.
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))
15 Nov 11 UTC
Hehe you supported the Italian in his own attack :( If you had done it right your move would have succeeded in dislodging Marseilles and Paris would have bounced the Spain attack.
kintaro08 (248 D)
15 Nov 11 UTC
oh wow, so that was a mistake in his orders? I'm Italy in this case. I thought he had supported into Marseilles. Thanks for the clarification.
AlexNesta (239 D)
15 Nov 11 UTC
Oh, lucky you! :-)
I remember one game where I supported an Austrian on his last unit into Marseilles... as France. Completely by mistake.

That wasn't fun D:

I played a game (wish I remembered the link) in which on the same turn:

Russsia (me) used BS to support a Turkish army in ANK into my army in ARM, so I didn't get the build from taking ANK.

France supported an Austrian army from PIE into MAR instead of his own army in ROM.

Those two mistakes prevented me from soloing.

I believe Draug and Crazyter were in that game.
Babak (26982 D(B))
15 Nov 11 UTC
oh oh kintaro... be careful. Draugnar will now come and hunt you down for talking about an on-going game and linking to it. I think you're in trouble!!!!

lol....

dunno though, abge and PE are mods and they didn't stop you... so maybe its legal after all ;)
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
15 Nov 11 UTC
Wow, thanks for forcing me into addressing this issue, Babak : )

I don't think there's anything wrong with this thread. The player was asking a technical question about a move in the past. There was an objective answer and had more to do with the interface than anything else.
kintaro08 (248 D)
15 Nov 11 UTC
Oh man, I didn't realize I was breaking a rule. I was trying to decipher what was going on from the picture and I thought he was supporting into Marseilles. I thought it could have been a glitch, but I remember reading that the chances of that is pretty much nil. I just wanted a clarification of the rules and didn't want to screw France over. I really should have read over the orders more carefully.
abgemacht (1076 D(G))

@kin

You've done nothing wrong; please don't worry.

I think we all know the only explanation is that PE is one if the secret mods D33 is always talking about.

Babak (26982 D(B))
16 Nov 11 UTC
PE... I promoted you. my GR gives me that kind of power haha ;P

abge, I really dont care. but according to Draug's rules (see the thread linked below) he linked to an ongoing game and asked a question about said game in public. thus breaking the 'dont talk about an ongoing game' rule which I have not seen printed anywhere.

Anyways, I'm trying to start trouble, thats all. (kinta - you are fine, I wasn't picking on you and you didn't do anything wrong - besides being lucky haha)

I want in. To play the second best player would be fun. Actually, what would be even more fun would be the top six GR players (or points players, either way is fine) and me in an anon game. What fun!

Know what would be more fun. The top seven GR players and not you.

Babak (26982 D(B))
16 Nov 11 UTC
Cachimbo... I rarely announce what games I'm in anymore... so if you find a high priced anon game, its possible I'm in it. That's the best I can offer for now.

later on when I feel I have more time, I'll do some GR challenge games... but for the most part, I'm keeping my number of games quite low right now.

by the way... how do you get negative 105 D in play?
Cachimbo (1181 D)
16 Nov 11 UTC
Me? I dunno! That's not what I see when I look at my profile, so I suppose it has to do with anon games and the like.

Ever since I saw the results of the Boston F2F I've been wanting to play you and MM. I'm currently playing the latter and would relish the chance to face you at some point. But if this is how you approach joining games for now, then our "clash" will come in due time, I'm sure.

@ Tom: I like ya man, but piss off! I'm with you that watching the top 7 play it out would be fun, but I'm not sure why you felt the need to add that burn.

Tom Bombadil (4023 D(G))

That was more me getting pissy at Diplomat. My comment was not directed at you at all Cachimbo. I just like to make fun of our dear friend Diplomat.

"I want in. To play the second best player would be fun. Actually, what would be even more fun would be the top six GR players (or points players, either way is fine) and me in an anon game. What fun!"

This was diplomats post where he incorrectly assumes that someone with a decent GR will ever play with him despite his continuous trolling/disregard for the rules/whining to become a mod.
