Newbie question re power allocation
Is this purely random when you sign on to a new game? I played by email before and you could set preferences for which power you wished to play at the beginning. There seems to be no such option here, or am I missing something? I'm wondering partly because I joined two games using a creaky old browser that didn't manage to load all parts of the interface.

Drawing ethics
I have heard that Mods have the power to force a draw in a game. Is this true? And if so, in a game where one or more major powers have CDed, basically throwing the game and all the players except one or two would like a draw and the one or two who don't are exploiting the CDed player, should a draw be forced?

You know you're playing too much Diplomacy when you start looking at chess from a Diplomacy standpoint. (Hmm... if I retreat my bishop to D6, do you think he'll get his rook out of the H-file?) Should I be afraid?

Hypothetical rules question, with no bearing on anything that has ever actually happened
If I were forced to disband my last unit because I was dislodged and had nowhere to retreat to, but still had a non home supply centre somewhere else on the board, would I count as being eliminated, or still in the game?

Kestas, I sent an international money order to you this weekend. Enough to keep you in beer and pizza for a few days.

Argue away then ;-) j/k, I stand corrected, I'll let you know when it arrives. Hopefully with a new page we can let this thread sink or swim without debate between people who I don't think have major disagreements.
On slashdot and sourceforge they have a little donation mark that appears next to usernames, maybe that would be a way to flag donors without bothering others
Draugnar (0 DX)
04 Oct 10 UTC
That would be cool. No amounts needed. Just a little icon that says "I gave" kind of like the stickers that blood donors get.
TrustMe (106 D)
04 Oct 10 UTC
Then we can gang up on on the non-donors :-)
Draugnar (0 DX)

That would be metagaming. It's seriously frowned upon. Hard to prove, but still a dickish thing to do.
MadMarx (36299 D(G))

We could also color code the donor "mark", so that if you have given in the current year (or in the past 12 months?) your "mark" is in color and if it's been over a year it turns grey, or something like that.

We also had a lot fewer donors at that time mapleleaf. ;-P Really I have to give credit to this whole endeavor, to an extent, because webDip has got 2-3 dozen donors and probably 1-2 dozen have been as a result of this thread and its derailed predecessor

Personally I donate to sites I enjoy as well, and it's good to know that it's not absorbed into a big black hole but that your donation was actually significant in some way, and some token does give that impression.
webDip isn't hurting for donations and we'll be here (and hopefully improving) come what may, but it's just a decent, unsolicited gesture that I'd be glad to acknowledge (in a way that doesn't annoy others)

orathaic (1009 D(B))

A flag woudl be cool, especially if it linked to the donations page with a short explaination.

Totally a status symbol, but otherwise meaningless, however it would have people going, "What's that thing?" and clicking on it... perhaps a personalized 16x16 icon... with blackjack and hookers, actually screw the icon....
