On Social Contracts and Their Existence
It's late where I am and I was thinking about this post:
http://trolleyproblem.blogspot.com/2012/02/why-social-contract-arguments-are.html

So what do y'all think about the social contract and the legitimacy of government? Does it exist? If so to what extent? Please discuss.

Feature discussion: newbie diplomacy
So, one feature that would be amazing for new players is a "test the waters" mode for diplomacy.

Something that new players could try to see if they like Diplomacy, without the commitment to a four month game checking the site every day, or setting aside five hours for a live game. Maybe it's a short game up until 1902? I have no idea. Ideas?

I build F Kosovo.
Maniac (184 D(B))
28 Sep 16 UTC
I'm not sure that's allowed this early Capt. I should've stated that we're only allowing webDip place names for the first 3 years, I thought this unwritten rule didn't need saying.
captainmeme (1723 DMod)
28 Sep 16 UTC
I'm fairly certain Kosovo was decreed a legal province for anyone to build in the 2013 Berlin Ruleset, which is the basis of all modern games. Removing this rule completely destroys the balance of the game.
Maniac (184 D(B))
28 Sep 16 UTC
The Berlin Ruleset was written by monkeys made redundant when the 'Monkeys typing the works of Shakespeare' experiment was abandoned. It may be OK for casual players, but I wanted to play a serious game.
captainmeme (1723 DMod)
28 Sep 16 UTC
Really? You really think that way about Berlin? IMO it was the first decent set of rules the game has had for a decade. London completely destroyed the integrity of the game with the Negotiation Ruling, and the NADA additions to the ruleset made Austria the most powerful country by a ridiculous margin, so everyone had to gang up on them or they auto-won. I don't even want to go into the idiocy of the 2012 Avalon Rules.

Is it 2019 in your alternate universe Ghug? No playing outside the board for 3 years, then we'll trigger Article 50 and then who knows...
captainmeme (1723 DMod)
28 Sep 16 UTC
Ghug, I'll land-convoy F Kos-Bud if you want to stay in the game, provided you accept vassalage for 3 turns.
ghug (5068 D(B))
28 Sep 16 UTC
The 1998 Chicago addendum defines a game year as a move or attempted move, and is still accepted in every ruleset I've seen in the new millennium. That makes my move year four., unless you're banning rules outside of the game board too.
Maniac (184 D(B))
28 Sep 16 UTC
You're clearly ignoring the unwritten rules I referred to earlier, but if you want to play hardball.

I'm starting to think neither Capt or ghug have much idea either Ezio...
captainmeme (1723 DMod)
28 Sep 16 UTC
It's a Diplomacy variant (Ankara Crescent, not Anakara Crescent, Maniac spelt it wrong) that was pretty widely played in the FTF scene in the 90's. We've run it a couple of times on webDip but because some of the rules are a little obscure it's a bit difficult to GM without an Ankara Crescent board and the ruleset at hand.
captainmeme (1723 DMod)
28 Sep 16 UTC
Also, I'll go with Trieste and Vie Lib Gal H.

If nobody else joins in I have this one, I think. Ghug's unit in Kos is off the board right now, right? Because we're not using the Berlin rules?
ghug (5068 D(B))
28 Sep 16 UTC
It's very clearly on the board. It's 1907. Kos-Gal, A-Sparta.

How do people communicate in Gunboat?
I'm playing in a couple gunboat games, and it seems like other players are working well together, with regards to support and such. I trust they are not messaging each other, and so I would like to know how they figure out what the other players are going to do.
