Apologies I didn't see this thread. There was an issue with the bots for a week or so that I didn't notice until I was notified due to a docker update. I've resolved this and will add a bots to the health check system so that if bots stop submitting orders I'll be notified

Welcome back! I'd say main thing is we've got AI bots now, zultar's reign of terror is over (j/k), otherwise not much has changed There was some.. unpleasantness.. the word genocide was getting thrown around a fair bit.. this and that, I wouldn't worry about it.. edit: Of course the point and click ...

Hi all, I peruse the diplomacy subreddit every now and one comment related to World 901 and how it's a good variant but there's not enough places to play it. Do people here think it would be good to add World 901, or are there any other non-gimmicky variants (that will last etc) that we should add i...

Thanks, that worked! Hopefully this issue is fixed as I think it could put new players off. Appreciate your help and recommendation! You can also copy this link here: Screenshot 2023-05-07 045938.jpg If someone clicks that link they'll see the old board whether they're set to use the new UI or not,...

Hi, sweetandcool noticed that it was happening when supporting a move into a coastal area. Turns out when an invalid order is submitted it will only set the order up to the invalid part, so incomplete move orders were being submitted, and the point and click UI doesn't seem to be able to handle inco...

Sorry I mean to fix this asap but this monthly dev cycle something else came up that I had to put hobby time to instead Maybe I'll be able to do some webDip work this weekend otherwise it'll have to wait for next month

Yeah, that didn't work either and I am fresh out of ideas

Those links both work for me

Hmm, can't see either of those games now?

YOu can change your username but only via a request in the mod forum where it tracks how many usernames you've changed etc. You can imagine if people could just hop around their username freely it would be quite confusing and there'd be potential for abuse e.g. mimicking others, changing after stabb...

Heheh that'd be interesting to see if people play different on the new UI. Note that you can and always will* be able to use the drop-down UI by going to Account > Settings and choosing the drop-down UI. You can also choose to drop back to it temporarily via the drop-down UI link in the info area in...

I don't mind myself, but I know plenty of people didn't like PPSC and I'm sure the change was well thought out. Sum of squares seems fairly similar anyway, and this wouldn't be high on the todo list since I know there'll be disagreement however the scoring works

Developments in the last two years are that we now run the bots on our own hardware, and understand them a bit better (unfortunately not as much as I'd like.. but watch this space). Something that's quite interesting about the bot development process is that making a perfect Diplomacy bot actually d...

Thanks for the feedback: It's a new feature that'll get built into a more general notifications page with settings about what you want to receive (so you'l be able to sign up for SMS notifications when you're about to NMR, something that I'll definitely be enabling), but it looks like there's a bug ...

Hmm.. when I do it with my old games I just click the button in the bottom left and the press pops up, what happens for you?

I am in a paused game where the person who requested the pause is back but a different player disappeared over a week ago. Since the game is paused he can't civil disorder nor be reached to unpause. I would like to reach out to a mod to ask for advice but the need help page says to include a game I...

That's true.. I guess the counter-argument is would you rather play someone who missed 10 turns out of 100 or 10 turns out of 50 (over the same time period); for me I'd consider both just as unreliable, the person playing 100 games shouldn't be considered twice as reliable because they're playing in...

Looks like we had some activity on the staging site and no-one reported any issues so I've deployed those changes and will keep an eye on it. Really like the sandbox map.. I feel like I could make variants point and click pretty easily, though I'm interested if it works well on mobile etc as it has ...

I've removed that from the staging version, not sure what it means it's something to do with phpBB notifications, and sorted out the avatars messing the spacing up at the top

If you check your profile page it'll break it down for you. There's a small component that's proportional to the number of turns you played, but for most people the main part will be a fixed penalty for each turn missed. I think that's a fair way to do it, because the other players in the game with ...

Oh wait the drop-down isn't working either? Can you give me the game ID so I can have a look?

The point and click UI should work now, but I thought the drop down UI already was
