The dictator strike again
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/voter-suppression-scandal-will-be-a-test-of-harpers-leadership/article2350684/

First vetoing bills using unelected senators, now cheating in the election to get a majarity. Is Harper a dictator or elected official?

So what happened - why did I bother to join this game only to see it end in a 7-way draw before the autumn 1902 moves? I'm sure there's a good answer....

Time-wasters who team up with their mates.......
and enter anonymous games and team up against everyone else and usually but not always win. Then they spend all their time making sure they get 17 SCs each before drawing. Then flushed with their 'success' they start doing it in further matches. I just want to play a game with genuine competition where people win on merit and not because they teamed up with their schoolmates. How can this be stopped or how can I prevent getting stuck in games with these imbeciles?

this is what i think of people frowning upon me
i don't care.

what happens if you're playing a non-live game and the tides have turned, and it's clear your alliance will lose, and none of the opposition will defect? for live games, i usually play them through because it doesn't take too long to end them, but who wants to spend weeks playing a game that you will eventually lose?

Somaliland
Does anyone else ever get frustrated at the lack of international recognition of Somaliland? I find myself coming back to this subject over and over, trying to find any good reason to not recognize a democratic state in Africa with a history of free and fair elections, non-violent transitions of power, and relatively stable economic growth.

DATC and the known errors on this site
I took a look at the DATC tests here (http://webdiplomacy.net/datc.php) and noticed that 6.H (Retreating), 6.I (Building) and 6.J (Civil Disorder and Disbands) were all missing. Two of the most prominent errors on this site fall in this area (ending games before retreats and incorrect civil disorder disbands).

NEW RULE FOR THE NON-ANON GAME:

From now on, you must PM me to get into the non-anon game:

PS - Your odds of getting into the game are exponentially better if you have "The" in your screen name.

Exactly, Jim's not playing, at least not in the non-anon game, I want to see if he and I fight over Scandinavia even when we don't know we should.

I'm considering interested people through Saturday, I will form games Sunday morning and hopefully get these going by Sunday night or Monday morning, so pay attention to PM's if you are expecting to play.

you do have
The 7th?
MadMarx (36299 D(G))
26 Feb 12 UTC
Yeah, I have The 7th... One webDipper said he was interested and that he'd get back to me. If I don't hear from him first thing Sunday morning, there is another person that has claimed the spot and will be given it, so we're covered one way or the other. This and the anonymous games will hopefully start by Sunday night or Monday morning, so no need for anyone to rush to join over the weekend.

PS - I was glad to get my points down to 27,999 D creating these games, a keen marketing ploy that looks much less intimidating than 28,000+. Yeah, that's right, my mental tactics are *that* good.

May I direct you to threadID=829567, where it is clearly proven that your point total is actually 28,000?

Nice try, ghug, but we all know I'm not a 28,000 caliber sort of guy...

Failed move?!
Basicly the situation was that while playing as turkey in the late 1901 I moved my army from Bul to Gre and another one from Con to Bul via land, supported by a fleet in the black sea, but somehow the move failed and the army order is referred as hold in the orders log. My other army emptied Bul and noone else attacked there so why did the move fail? Any ideas?

Points Lost in Cheating Matches
Do the moderators reimburse points to players retrospectively when they find they were victims of cheating in previous matches?
Also on a general point why do so many people try and cheat, what is the point?

website does not always display all games / how do you resign a game?
The website does not always display all 4 of my games at the top. Therefore, I got into a game on the late end of the turn and got attacked because I couldn't negotiate from the beginning, and it is ruined once again. This would not have happened if I could have resigned the first 2 games. They continue to display at the top of the screen even though I want to quit. How do you resign / surrender?
Overall, I have had a much worse experience with this website than I expected.
