Bug check?
Well, I'm not sure what happened (although I'm guessing some save error so it wont' show up in any logs) but I somehow ended up with an army in Naples rather than the fleet that I thought I'd ordered.

This professor doesn't sound like the smartest tool in the box.... and he thinks Obama is a socialist, sounds like a by-product of a failing capitalist education system

The Golden Age of Diplomacy
Does anyone else find reading Sharp's "The Game of Diplomacy" really depressing? The level of dedication and analysis that he presents in the book would never be found today. Does anyone even talk about diplomacy theory anymore, or are we just left to reading relics of the past?

Homework this week
Your homework this week is to speak to an octogenarian. We won't have them for very much longer and so I think it's important for young people to meet these guys.

Hippies aren't quite the same. They're uptight in a way that the people older than them weren't.

Feature Idea
So, I play a lot of live games, and I make a lot of them. I would love an option that would let players make games where any NMR in the first year is an instant cancel. So, that way there's no situation where a Germany NMR's and England/France/Russia take advantage and go on to become monster powers.

WebDip F2F 2 June 21 in Chicago
Ok guys here's the new planning thread now that we have a date and place. Do you guys want to be in Chicago itself or in the suburbs?

@Abge Since you helped with the last F2F did you guys all meet up on the Friday then play on the Saturday or how'd you work that stuff out?

abge - You might be surprised. I'm quite a pleasant chap in reality. :)

I'm a fan of Chicago - I'd consider, but I'm not sure how the wife would feel about "I'm going to Chicago to play games all weekend". She'd probably be cool with it...but it'd cost me, as in wife and 2 teenage daughters loose in Chicago with high-limit credit cards...
Draugnar (0 DX)
18 Dec 13 UTC
Take away the credit cards and they can hang with my wife.
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))
18 Dec 13 UTC
It's all part of your elaborate plan to steal his daughters.
It's krellin's fault for putting "teenage daughters" and loose" in the same sentence. Draugnar can't help himself.
Draugnar (0 DX)
18 Dec 13 UTC
No, I'm trying to find someone to hang with the wife that weekend making it much easier to make the trip. I can probably take Friday off to drive up and have dinner and drinks. It will mostly be up to the wife seeing as it is our 25th anniversary this year.

But considering I am taking her here on our anniversary (http://www.harvestmooncottages.com/Peacepipe.htm) for 5 days, I may be OK with doing Chicago as long as she gets to go along and has someone to run around with while I play Diplomacy.

My gf will likely be taking the trip, but I think she'll be spending the weekend with friends from school.
Celticfox (100 D(B))
19 Dec 13 UTC
Is that your anniversary weekend or something Draug? Otherwise why would she say no to you going to Chicago.. hell just say you're going to a convention of sorts.
The cereal convention, for cereal stabbers (nod to Neil Gaiman).

You don't understand my wife. 2014 is our 25th anniversary. Not one day, but the whole year.

Your right I really don't understand that kinda thinking.
Draugnar (0 DX)

You haven't been married 25 years either. The silver anniversary is *huge*. Check out the cottage I'm taking her and the doggies to for the actual week it falls on. I'm also taking her to Beaches or Sandals or one of the other all-inclusive resorts in the Bahamas during the summer (without the doggies, of course).
Celticfox (100 D(B))
19 Dec 13 UTC
Still don't understand kinda thinking. I'm just not that kinda women. I also don't ask for jewelry, but I make up for it in the list of video games I give Mr. CF every year instead.

How to deal with people taking advantage of CD
Well, yet again, we have a situation where a country solos because its neighbors go CD from the outset, everyone else is completely sporting about declaring a draw.

Perhaps some kind of ban on new games for a couple weeks or something for this kind of cheating?

The Foundation Series
I (at the suggestion of a forum member, who's name I forget but will hopefully identify themselves), just read the first three books in the foundation series by Isaac Asimov. After calibrating my block list by reading through a recent gun control debate thread, I'd like to ask forum dwellers for their take on this series, or at least the premise.
