- ethical question
would lying about whether a move is possible be outside the standards of what is and isn't okay with regard to diploming? say a person is concerned about another player making a move that is impossible, should I tell him it is, or benefit from his not knowing? :
- F2F vs. Online
I'm doing a research paper for sociology about Diplomacy. Does anyone have statistics regarding elimination in F2F games as opposed to games on here? Ideally, I'd like to see how early the first elimination occurs in a face to face game versus online. :

Actually, I used to play diplomacy with him, too. Weird. :
- Message from mods in gunboat
gameID=101271
How do I get rid of the little message icon? I can't even read the message. :
- Most popular game names
Just curious about what people name their games, and what seems to be most popular. Has anyone ever looked into this? :
- Unpause needed
Not sure if this goes here, or I'm supposed to email this to the mods, but this game needs to be unpaused: http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=73347 :
- Another Writing Thread
Well, I remember sending out my writing a while back, and no one ever got back to me about it. Was wondering if anyone had any opinions on it, and/or had anything they wanted to have read(and critiqued)? :
- Writing Thread
I can't seem to find the old one, so here's a new one. If you have any projects you'd like to discuss, or just want a good bit of reading, post here. :
- Earthquake
So I'm reclining at home, reading The Princess Bride, when I feel my bed shake like nothing before. It felt like a wild animal was trapped underneath me. I come online, and what do I find out? The east coast was rocked by an earthquake! Anyone have thoughts on this? :
- Talk diplomacy
Well, basically, I have the idea that in terms of diploming (in FTF, mostly) that it might be better to wait for someone else to approach you with an idea, rather than approaching someone else to discuss something. Thoughts? :
- New Feature
So... what does the mute player function do? And how long has it been there? :
- Frustration
So, I just drew a game, but I really think it was a bad decision. Germany and England pretty much said that they would attack me all-out unless I voted draw. Is this metagaming? :
- Just out of curiosity
What happens if a game is paused, but all players finalise? :
- About live games
Why are they always 5 minute phases, never 10? 10 minutes is so much better, actually gives you time to think, or get up for a bathroom break, if and when necessary. Not to mention, agree to finalise, and it's just as fast as a 5 minute game. :
- A. Vie - Boh
New Austrian opening? See inside for details. :
- live game, anyone?
No time to find the live games thread, anyone interested in a late-night live game? http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=41237 :
- CGS games?
So, I was looking for a game to join, when I spotted this. Spot them every now and again. What are they? And what does CGS stand for? :
- Diplomacy theories
I've got some theories regarding different powers in this game, and I thought I'd throw them out there, see what people think. If you've got any of your own, feel free to do the same. :
- Warrior bards, take II
Verily, all that have attempted to join in my... ahem... our conquest of Europe, I ask you... Give this: http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=29052 :

- training game
I just invited a friend onto the site, and figured I would show him the ropes the hard way. Anyone want in? Password is train http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=15729 :
- Speech on Diplomacy
Well, for my Public Speaking Class, I'm considering doing an informative speech on this beautiful game. Anyone have any ideas that could help?
(It's due this monday). :
- It's over 9000!
I was just checking out the games section, and this site has had more than 9,000 finished games.
Let the bad jokes commence. :
- New game idea?
I was thinking about the anonymous games option, and the fact that we can apparently have one with press... See inside for further details. :
- Stab-Happy
Just got back from huskycon, and wantng to make a new game in celebration. 25 point buy-in. Quality players preferred. Just so you know, an old friend of mine is also joining. :
- Game pausing?
Does it work in the new version at all? Or am I just playing with a bunch of bad sportsmen? :
- Gratitude
Thank-you to whoever took my advice and got rid of the widescreen effect. :
- Hell is other people.
See below. :
- Other gaming sites?
Don't get me wrong, I love Diplomacy, but sometimes... A good game of Axis & Allies gets me going. Does anyone know of any other websites for strategic games such as those? :
- The world!!
http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=11160
Join if you dare. I'm looking for people who habitually finalize early, though. :
- Help with moves?
Turkey and Italy seem to be my worst two countries. Anyone have any advice to offer with good opening moves for them? :
- Must be Dreaming
New game: http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=9867
40 hour turns, 40 point buy-in.
Any takers? :
- I finally broke 100!
Time to celebrate! :
- Odd bouncing
No, this isn't what you think... nothing perverted here. Just a question pertaining to the rules of the game v. the rules of the site. :
- New game, just for fun
