So, maybe you will curse me for starting a new thread about this, but I am curious.

Paused Game
I have a game that was paused, but one player hasn't returned for 3 days (he is not the one that requested the pause) and everybody else is ready to go again. How long does etiquette demand we wait? Can we even GET somebody to unpause it?

Also, this game has the best password of all time. True life.
Interest here. #stupidjoke

I'm going to have to get back to you on this one. I need to see what my game schedule looks like with the invitational games going on.

Special shutouts go to Sargmancher, PE, Czech, (if you'll actually play something that's not gunboat. :-P) basvan, Lando, Babak, Draugnar, and probably a few others I'm forgetting.

Yeah, you're absolutely in if you want, PE.
Definitely want, but I'm not going to reserve a spot now because I can't guarantee I can fill it to the capacity I need to. Might I suggest Tru Ninja as well? (Poor guy always seems to be forgotten... nah actually I blame him for being a ninja)

I can also vouch for zultar's reliability and competency -- he's a worthy addition.

Well, it looks like my attempt to be incredibly creative in passwords has caused this game to be unjoinable. I attempted to make the password "☺☻☺☻☺☺☻☻☺☻☻☺☻☻☺☻☺☻☻☺☻☺☺☻☺☻☻☺☻☻☺☺☺☻☻☺☺☻☺☻☺☻☻☻☻☺☺☻", which is "Smiley" in binary happy faces. But apparently something has gone wrong. So I'm making a new game with the same specs, and a better password. Better, in this context, meaning less awesome, and more lame. But functional.

@akilies, yeah there's a way to fix your dip need and you don't need to go to a DAA, diplomacy addict anonymous -where everyone has to wear a mask and talk with a computer generated voice because we surely don't want to know who the other players are and throw everything at them for betraying us earlier.
Solution: play risk.
zultar (4180 DMod(P))

@smiley, very creative password but not as functional and lame as the new one.
I can verify that the new password works.

Um. I have no problem with you joining (In retrospect, I'm going to wait awhile and let people that I really want to play with *couLANugh* express interest if they want to. After that, I'll fill in the list, considerating of order signed up, GR, and resign %.

But you remind me that we should probably lay out an official pause policy. Here it is, so there is no doubt, and no confusion among the mods if they need to intervene: (And I think it's the same policy as the leagues, but I could be wrong)

Each player has the right to a single pause for up to a one week period. These pauses will be force paused if necessary. After the specified time period or one week, whichever is shorter, the game will be force unpaused if necessary. Prior to pausing, the player must state the exact period of time the game is to be paused so there is no confusion . Back to back pauses by different countries are allowed, but highly discouraged.

I think you can live with that, Maniac, and I think it's the fairest way to do it.

I have one game (a gunboat) that I need a sitter for. Can anyone help me out, please?

Just a thought--since we have so many apt and opposing personalities on the site that frequently debate topics, anyone interested in a more formalized session? Format ideas and the rest inside--and definitely open to ideas here--but basically it'd be sort of like the forum equivalent of a live game: 5 minutes for posts on the topics given, and then 2 minutes for a rebuttal, one person goes after another...we'll select for an impartial debate moderator...points awarded by moderator, and so on?

Please, if you have the time, consider being a sitter for me!
The games are gameID=60453 and gameID=61014. I'm having sudden time commitments and am neglecting both games dreadfully - messages not responded to, barely entering orders on time, etc. The other players deserve better. Does anyone reliable want to sub for me until I get back on my feet? I'll greatly appreciate it!

Sorry for posting twice, but I realized the vital part of my subject got chopped off in the regular view. I'm not used to starting threads on the forum.

Putin Explains It All!
Well, ladies and gents of WebDip, I have opinions--so do you. That being said, my opinions are just that, opinions, and *I* don't have a clear, 100%, fail-safe answer to every single matter of running a nation.
LUCKILY, however, we here at WebDip DO have such an esteemed, enlightened individual, who, as has been evidenced time and time again, is correct no matter what. So, I give him the floor: Putin--please, explain how we might all prosper in a Perfect Putinist Polity!

interpretation of rule 5?
"5. The Pause/Unpause feature is not a diplomatic tool
The pause is there to stop players missing their orders, but is not part of the game. As such pausing or unpausing should not be used for diplomatic gain, such as refusing to unpause unless other players will draw the game. If it is being abused staff may step in to sort it out."

Bug in the "Threads/Replies" part of a players profile
I'm assuming others have noticed this, but if you haven't, it takes awhile for a thread or reply to actually appear there. And if you have too many, the page will crash. Does anyone know what governs this behavior? As best I can tell, the number of posts missing is somewhat proportional to the number of posts you've made.
