"Foolish...Voting For Liberals. It's What Kids Do." The GOP Targets Students
http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_theticket/20110308/ts_yblog_theticket/ahead-of-the-2012-campaign-states-debate-voting-rights

So to expel their image of being stuffy old white males in flanel suits, the genius GOP has decided to try and eliminate same-day voter registration and voting and limit college voters in other ways...nice...

More judge-like game settings?
I really like the web-based driven Diplomacy game play but are no fan of the handling of deadlines and the high occurrence of no ordering and civil disorders. Has anyone attempted to bring a more judge-like approach to game settings, deadlines and grace periods to this project? Anything up and running out there or does anyone having work in progress? I'd rather join forces if anyone is working on it than starting on duplicate work,

Designing my final syllabus
So I'm in the process of designing my last syllabus before they cut off my funding, and I wanted to do something different this time. What cases do you think would most interest 18-20 year olds?

I finally won 2 games !!!
I have been playing webdip here for almost a year, and I had finished 48 games not being able to win any of them. Then in the last hour I won not 1 but 2 games. gameID=47420 and gameID=51611. I think I finally found a strategy that works for me.

FTF game in Melbourne
It has come to my attention that there are a few people here who are from Melbourne, Australia. Anyway, being completely and utterly free this Labor Day weekend (read: no one wants to hang out with me), I would like it if people wanted to meet up and play a game of Diplomacy. I know that it is a little late, so if a later date was organised, I'm fine with that.

8.9 earthquake off the coast of Japan, tsunamis, aftershocks
CNN livestream: http://www.justin.tv/live_news#/w/948725776/18
I know, CNN sucks, but this is the best stream I've found so far.
Al Jazeera's livestream has it too: http://english.aljazeera.net/watch_now/
If you know anyone in Japan, or anywhere on the Pacific coast in Asia you might want to give them a call and let them know. Tsunamis are still moving and there may be more aftershocks in the region.

forced draw conditions?
Say you have a (purely hypothetical, of course) situation where 2 countries are holding a stalemate line against a 3rd in a gunboat game, and the 3rd country is refusing to draw.

Is there some number of moves with no change to the line after which the mods will force a draw?

Soros v LCTM, or how I learned to love the quants...
So I've been reading Niall Ferguson and his view on George Soros when LCTM begged for a bail out and it got me thinking, if the worlds decisions can be divided into gut or analysis, what kind of diplomacy player am I?

I'm interested to know if players on webdip would evaluate their styles as a gut player or an analytical player?

Tips on Ghost Rating..
When I joined, I was pure. I would not let GR nor points rating deter me from joining a game that looked interesting, for whatever reason. ...But now I find the ratings to be one factor in my considerations. I'm sliding down the slippery slope to letting GR rule me!!!!!! But I digress...

so since only two of you want a full communication game, I'll create a public press one.

Voting Pause.
I am not currently in a game awaiting players to pause, nor am I complaining about a past game. This just struck me as somewhat impractical. A Pause vote, in my opinion should be a majority vote. I'm sure countless situations have occured where a small number of players refuse to vote pause when a legitimate reason is given. Pausing, as far as I'm aware, does not affect the outcome of the game.
