What did you guys want to be when you grew up.
I'm not an adult yet, and I still am unsure about what job I want. I used the Holland personality codes, and I'm an IES, which suggests pharmacist, but that doesn't particularly appeal to me. Some other jobs it says I might be good at are physician, actuary, and training manager. Of those, actuary and training manager look the most intersting. But this isn't just about me. What dod you guys want to be when you grew up?

Disband instead of retreat
My understanding of the rules of the game were that you were allowed to simply disband a unit instead of retreating it. Is this also true of webdiplomacy? When the retreat round comes will my pull down menu offer a disband option?

Anyone live within a few hours of Gainsville, FL?
If you are interested in a Face-to-Face game, there is an avid Dip player who wants to try to organize sme ftf games in FL. I personally live a few hours away, but we find the 3-4 other players we need, it'd be worth trying to organize a game. write inside if you want to play or live close enough.

I am so SICK of the Gaga Person!
She's an unoriginal hackjob with no talent except to gratify others through the basest of all techniques (in other words, she'd make Hugh Hefner pretty happy) and for getting her name out with scandals that flood the Web and take away from the important news (Arizona's immigration law? BP Oil Spill? The Economy?)

How do you feel about this...person (and THIS pisses me off): http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/stopthepresses/220323/lady-gaga-photo-irks-beatles-fans/

Corrupt a Wish
The first person makes a positive wish, and the next person plays the role of the djinn granting the wish, and then turning it into a disaster. The second person then makes the next wish, and the cycle repeats itself.

I call shenanigans on the whole france england thing
ava2790 (232 D(S))
04 Jul 10 UTC
Well done V+. That was a bloody amazing game on your side. If this was WTA I'd yell at De Gaulle and feel bad that we let you win with our fight. But well played De Gaulle. I usually walk through Austria when I get Turkey and you held me off real well.
saxophonedude (100 D)

Nah V+ is in the top 1%, I have played against him before and he is certainly not a metagamer/multi.

And in the end all i could do was support munich to prevent an english win- great gamme tho england

I am disappointed that no one seemed to want to stop fighting to prevent an english solo- Ava why not make peace overtures???
ava2790 (232 D(S))
04 Jul 10 UTC
This was PPSC. I had entered orders to stop attacking you and convoy BUL-SEV and move SEV-UKR and make an attack on Moscow. THat was my WTA reflex. I noticed it and changed the orders in time.

Good game, all. I got lucky with those CD's in Rus and Fra, or I'd never have got away with pressing Ger like that. I did help that neither Fra nor Ger built fleets at the end of 1901, though. :)

Draugnar (0 DX)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Hey De Gaulle. It was good combating you. But you must admit I had pushed back into Sev and would have held it if not for the noob play France's interference. I never went after him, so I don't know why he came after me. But it was a fun game and I enjoyed the challenge.
Draugnar (0 DX)
04 Jul 10 UTC
I should admit that my big mistake was moving out of Ven into Tyr. That gave you a reason to attack me. Otherwise, we might have worked together on Turkey.
V+ (5470 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Seriously, though, this thread really did drift a bit close to meta-gaming. Maybe I'm a purist, but I don't think players in an anon gunboat ought to be posting comments on the moves.
Draugnar (0 DX)
04 Jul 10 UTC
No we shouldn't I was out of the game when I started, but still shouldn't have discussed an ongoing game. You are correct V+ and I will think about that and not do it next time.
saxophonedude (100 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
we should start this thread back up before i leave.

I wish that I had just won.
killer135 (100 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Wish Granted, but the wish cost you more points than you won. The wish cost 5000 D and since you don't have that you have to be a slave.

Draugnar (0 DX)

Wish granted, but as a result of hyper inflation, it won't even buy a cup of coffee.

I wish for a wish that can't go wrong.
killer135 (100 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Wish granted, but since you made no wish for something you can own the wish failed.

Re: "drunk or stoned" I was neither. I had to disappear before the end of the game to take care of some pets. I had all of two Glenfiddich 12 year old scotchs tonight.

And Ava, if your a guy, my apologies. The only Ava I know is a lady.
Draugnar (0 DX)

Wish granted. But you promptly wrap it around a telephone pole killing yourself and your passenger.

I wish for absolutely nothing.

A'holes leaving the game?
I just had a game where a person left the game for no apparent reason other than it looked like they may not win. This really throws off a game. First, how and why can a person do this? Second, is there a way to flag them or block them from games so they can't keep doing it to you?

Facebook diplomacy - any devs out there?
Hey, I'm a mod on the facebook app for diplomacy, but the person who set me up (and presumably has higher-level access) has gone incommunicado.

There are some problems with the forum and profiles and I wonder if the database needs a clear-out. Can anyone over here work on the facebook app, or is it totally stranded now?
