A Call for Blind Diplomacy Voting (only see your own votes)
Diplomacy should be carried out through your moves, and if press is allowed, through your press, but not through voting signals. Some conspiracy theorists believe their are hidden meanings in unusual votes -- in my experience it is b/c of us cell phone players with fat fingers... Gunboat should not have this communication tool, and in press you can reveal or lie about your votes all you like...

An actual philosophy variant
Choose a philosophical school of thought. If the philosopher fundamentally changed during his writing career, you must also choose which text(s) you will be following. Then, you must hold to that philosophy in all discussions and movements. Why not PP, 5 D, 50hr phases, WTA, orders must be announced. If someone can demonstrate how a proposed action goes against your philosophy, you may not take that action and must do something else. Critiques?

@Dja The sad thing is both YJ and Krellin can be reasonable, smart debaters. Just for some reason both can't seem to just argue a topic they have to throw insults at each other and then bitch about the other. Also, nice try but I wasn't getting anywhere with them getting along better yesterday either.

"and keep repeating ad nauseum the same tired, broken arguments that have already been demonstrated to be faulty in the logic and pathetic in their intent."

You mean like the one where I question your existence?

Do you have any proof you exist, by the way? Still waiting on that
djakarta97 (358 D)
29 Mar 13 UTC
@celticfox: I agree, and they've ruined their reputations through their bickering. I tried yesterday, and we all saw the results....it's really quite sad to see people regress this far back.

You can't prove your own existence, Thucy. Why should krellin bother responding to somebody whose existence can't be demonstrated?

@djakarta - I object to you placing actual people on the side of YJ and then adding "radical republicans" to krellin's side. If we can't identify people by name, then a demeaning term should not be used as a placeholder.

Also you could add Gunfighter to Krellin's side probably.

I can't moderate, there's a high chance I'll make a passing reference to the fact that sometimes people play Diplomacy on this site and probably get banned .... it's not worth the risk :-)

Aww to sweet but this debate isn't going to happen. But, I would be more then happy to moderate a formal debate between 3 willing Liberals and 3 willing Republicans. I'd also need 1-2 other moderators.

Not that I am wasting my time being forced into a constriained debate, as I have said repeatedly, but:
jmo - know nothing about him; seems fair, but how do I know he is unbiased? As I have stated before, I do not believe anyone is truly unbiased
Druag: Great guy, seems to be fair minded, but hardly unbiased around here.
Celticfox: I enjoy certain discussions with her, she tries to be biased, but on multiple occassions I have noticed a lack of attention to detail and/or misreading of information. A judge can not make the numerous mistakes which she has committed in the past, espeically when she refuses to adit to such mistakes.

As I said long ago (or maybe I didn't...) finding three "unbiased" judges is an impossible task.

Oh and djakarta - How would you like it if I equated you with a dummycrat? Huh? Please do *not* try to equate me politically. You would be 100% wrong as many here know of my socially liberal views while being fiscally conservative and balance those two views with a reasonable view on financing yet monitoring social.programs.
philcore (317 D(S))

draug couldn't moderate - he wouldn't be able to supress his opinion and be unbiassed ... oh wait, I guess that's how the presidential debates are moderated too ... ok nevermind then.

Server upgrade
Thanks for everyone's patience during the server upgrade, for some reason it took them three hours, so it took much longer than I expected. I've added time to all games, if anyone spots anything out of place let me know.
On the bright side once this has settled down the server should have more capacity..

How does one leave a game?
I have no intentions of leaving any games I'm in, but I invited a friend to join the site and he joined a bunch of games, then decided he just didn't understand the game. Rather than stick around and ruin things for everyone, I've convinced him to just leave but I don't see that option anywhere. Help?

Why does anyone play live gunboat games?
Don't get me wrong, they're fun enjoyable things to do, even though I'm not too good in them myself, but, NMRs and CDs are rampant, and you get opportunistic wankers that refuse to draw/cancel even though everyone else has their draw/cancel votes up and game ettiqute demands that they do so, so I ask, why does anyone play them?

Repeat Messages?
Did the new updates come with a feature for preventing posting the same messages you already did? I posted the link to the email the mods about unpausing games, but I ended up having to add something to the beginning of the post, to get around a message that told me to make repeat messages.
Doesn't matter that much, but it seems like it could be annoying at times

Can someone explain the draw of the Gunboat?
To me, the entire thrill of this game is in the formation of alliances and the negotiations between players. With that being said, I absolutely don't understand the draw of the Gunboat games--it takes out the best part. If I'm looking for pure strategy, I'll take games like Axis and Allies (despite the "luck factor" or even chess). What am I missing about Gunboat games?
