I'm thinking of setting up a new passworded game
I'll be using your published stats to decide if I want to play against you or not.
I understand that statistics can sometimes be unreliable, as well as lies and, indeed, damn lies.

Why is there still so much war in the world?
2014 and there are still lots of wars going on, have we not progressed at all as a species, we think we are above animals but we are not because they only kill for food, we kill for all sorts of bullshit excuses. Is that what education has given us, more reasons to kill our fellow homo-sapiens?

Replacement player unable to join
This issue relates to the following game:
http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=139971
We have had Russia being banned for multi-accounting apparently, and we were told by GameMaster to try to find another player, which was promptly done. However, the replacement player allegedly cannot find the "join" button for the game and therefore cannot join. Could we please get some guidance as to what we should do in this case?

Web based diplomacy or face to face???
I got to play f2f for the first time in 25+ years. It was quite enjoyable to have open banter with other players and fully articulate what your thoughts are, but after returning to the game so many years later and now playing on the web, with drop down menus and computer making the moves for you. I think I like the web better. I would however like to play f2f every once in awhile.

What's the community's thought?

Guys, there's too many serious threads here. We need some fun. Let's write a story.
OK, here are the rules.

One by one, we each add on to the story. You can only add one sentence at a time, and each post must be separated by at least one other post. Your sentence must be grammatically correct and within the realm of possibility. If we do well with this one, we might move on to something more outlandish. I'll post a final edit of each paragraph, time permitting, when we get enough. Have fun with it!

Styje (266 D)

*ooc* ties the plot together, no?
But he couldn't let the world see what he had done, so he ran away to the mystical realm of Aeckub where he found the kingdom in chaos and assumed the throne.
Shortly afterward, he was the target of a sinister assassination plot that faintly implicated both Tyrion Lannister and Bellatrix Lestrange.

*OOC* Why would y'all do that. We had the starts of a decent storyline going. Sympathetic war orphan running for President despite his life being over before it even began... Then you all went and ignored the rules of "keep it logical" and ruined it.
*ooc* "Realm of possibility" is in the eye of the beholder, eh? And anyway, we're just speeding up the move to "something more outlandish." Or at least we were until ILN killed off our main character.
Fortunately, he had a conversation with Dumbledore right after he died and was able to be reanimated, but found that his hands had now actually turned ghostly.

So which is more feasible... A WWII war orphan running for President or a magic kingdom? Think hard. After all, Obama is a half black from a broken home raised by a single white mom.

Draug, it died when it turned into House of Cards. I'm sorry.
*OOC* Come on. House of Cards is the official Diplomacy show.
ghug (5068 D(B))

I love it, but this is sort of ruined by using already existing fiction.
Draugnar (0 DX)
05 Apr 14 UTC
Well, I don't know House of Cards. I assume the Presidential candidate who gets his secretary pregnant is the story lone to the show?
*OOC* How could I resist? The main character's name in House of Cards is Frank, and he's 61 years old, just like the Frank on this thread.
ghug (5068 D(B))
05 Apr 14 UTC
No, but the main character is named Frank Underwood.
Draugnar (0 DX)
05 Apr 14 UTC
The name and age was pure coincidence. It just felt right to have an orphan of WWII and that works out age wise, although now he'd be 70+
ghug (5068 D(B))
05 Apr 14 UTC
Someone added Underwood to it though and then people just kept going.
ILN (100 D)
05 Apr 14 UTC
*lol this story went bad with Automatic Diplomacy's first post, running for president was entirely unforeseen and uncalled for, the recent sentence clearly set up a sentence to explain his 'current fix'. And then the mention of a magical kingdom.
I had to do it. Although, to fix it, all you needed was a "Or so he thought." "doctors blag blah save him blah".
*OOC* People were speaking of ghostly hands and masturbation long before I posted that bit about Frank Underwood. Rofl
Styje (266 D)
05 Apr 14 UTC
*ooc hey, my post used previously stated an accepted knowledge, it worked fine
Being a model Democrat, he ruled his people very well and they all liked him, but he had to hide his ghostly hands with vacuum boxes.
But then he realized that "ruling" and being president of a democracy are mutually exclusive.
So to solve his existential crisis, he joined webdiplomacy and made conspiracies up under the name "blankflag".
But he met his match when a former foe from the site, (insert your name here) summoned a massive army to overthrow his kingdom.
Then the nukes fell, eradicating human civilization and ushering in an era of nuclear winter that destroyed 94.6% of life on Earth.
*OOC: you can ignore that if you REALLY want...*

Just get the hell out, guys...the hell with Russia or Ukraine's "ethnic Russians," the Jews don't have to put up with this AGAIN--not with America and Israel. Come here or go there, we don't have to get singled out for persecution AGAIN. (And how do you justify all this, Putin33? Hm?)

Why F Mur?
Sorry if this question has been answered, I couldn't find it anywhere. In the Modern Diplomacy II variant, we have a fleet in Murmansk. But in the variant rules (that we link to!!!) there's supposed to be an army in Murmansk.

Why the change? It seems to me that it just gives Russia less options when Russia is already under a lot of pressure in the first year.
