01 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2000: [Brazil]:i like this...it's like a bigger version of risk.
03 May 13 UTC	Autumn, 2000: GameMaster: sailorisalir was banned: multi. The time until the next phase has been extended by one phase length to give an opportunity to replace the player. Remember to finalize your orders if you don't want to wait, so the game isn't held up unnecessarily!

04 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2001: [Russia]:Is there any support for a draw, given that it is the 2nd turn and three are out?
04 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2001: [Brazil]:come on......can't there be any multies in my area?
04 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2001: [Frozen-Antarctica]:Hi, new FA here
20 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2005: [Pacific-Russia]:How comes the chinese army occupying an SC has been autodestroyed instead of the fleet inSea of Japan?!?
20 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2005: [USA]:If they're the same distance away from home SCs, the choice is alphabetical.
20 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2005: [Pacific-Russia]:Even if one of the units is in a SC area?! ... and in this specific case Sea of Japan would have been further away from home centers
20 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2005: [Quebec]:New Quebec, looking forward to negotiate with anyone
24 May 13 UTC	Autumn, 2005: [Russia]:Can we please pause... I will not be able to access the computer for a bit.
24 May 13 UTC	Autumn, 2005: [Pacific-Russia]:How long does "for a bit" means? are we talking about ... a few days or weeks?!
25 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2006: [Pacific-Russia]:How comes noone reacts to Russias pause request? He never abandoned a single game - now he seems to have problems with his computer. I think it wouldnt be fair to force him into civil disorder because of a computer problem - especially since he asked for a pause and will very likely return: his statistics clearly show he s adicted to diplomacy ;-)
25 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2006: [Pacific-Russia]:Let's give him ... 5 days, and if we dont hear back from him, we can ask a mod to unpause
25 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2006: [USA]:Vagaries of war. I'm not trying to be insensitive, but those of us who ARE addicted came to play. I wouldn't ask anyone to hold up a game because of something outside the game. I expect the same consideration.
25 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2006: [Pacific-Russia]:Therw are no possible reasons INSIDE the game to need a pause (except the server is down or a massive bug - what would result in an automatic pause anyway). Every pause request has his reasons OUTSIDE the game, and given the fact that Diplomacy takes several weeks to play one game, you can t always know in advance if something unpredictable will come up (well in fact you can never know something unpredictable in advance... )
25 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2006: [Frozen-Antarctica]:Pacific Russia, if you feel so bad for him, then don't attack him and support his soldiers so when he comes back or if, unless someone takes over, he will still be there
25 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2006: [Pacific-Russia]:I m just wondering why noone reacts to a pause request ...
25 May 13 UTC	Spring, 2006: [Kenya]:I am still wondering how long is "a bit" ? No-one wants an indefinite pause.
