Newbie question re power allocation
Is this purely random when you sign on to a new game? I played by email before and you could set preferences for which power you wished to play at the beginning. There seems to be no such option here, or am I missing something? I'm wondering partly because I joined two games using a creaky old browser that didn't manage to load all parts of the interface.

Drawing ethics
I have heard that Mods have the power to force a draw in a game. Is this true? And if so, in a game where one or more major powers have CDed, basically throwing the game and all the players except one or two would like a draw and the one or two who don't are exploiting the CDed player, should a draw be forced?

You know you're playing too much Diplomacy when you start looking at chess from a Diplomacy standpoint. (Hmm... if I retreat my bishop to D6, do you think he'll get his rook out of the H-file?) Should I be afraid?

Hypothetical rules question, with no bearing on anything that has ever actually happened
If I were forced to disband my last unit because I was dislodged and had nowhere to retreat to, but still had a non home supply centre somewhere else on the board, would I count as being eliminated, or still in the game?

@Эvalanche,

I'd say your first month is pretty useless. Not enough games have been played to have a meaningful result. I'd say the second/third month is a much better indicator.

Hey, I'm on there! Do all games count then? I was under the impression that only games specifically played for Ghostrating counted.

@ akilies
Diplomacy is really good off the iPad especially for live games because you can move around
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
01 Oct 10 UTC
Ghostrating games are games where entry is determined by Ghost-Rating, not which count towards Ghost-Rating; all games are considered for it.

Hey Ghost, do you not show players who haven't had a completed game in a while? I just started back up again last month, but none of my games have finished yet, and it's been about 2 years. But back in Feb 2009, I was #150
Alderian (2425 D(S))
02 Oct 10 UTC
Yes, Ghost implemented that just recently. You have to have had a game finish in the last 3 months to show up. You haven't lost your points though, once you complete a game, you'll show up the next time with all your past history considered. You show up on the All-Time List at 469th.
Alderian (2425 D(S))
02 Oct 10 UTC
By "haven't lost your points", I meant you haven't lost your ghost rating value.

Wow. I have a feeling that that was a very unusual month for me. Are only finished games counted or is your rating re-calculated when you get eliminated?
