To get away for awhile from fights over foreign fights and people being X'd out here (please don't smite me, Maniac!) we begin the follow-up to our Greatest Author of All-Time Tournament with the search for the Greatest Musician/Musical Act of All-Time! Regional groups this time, US/UK/Europe/World (unless someone has a better grouping plan.) Either way, once again, everyone gets 4 noms, and we'll start when we fill out our Bracket of 64, 16 per group. Go! :)

Who would lose?

The juggernaut is probably the most famous alliance - but how do YOU like to run it? As Russia? As Turkey? What are the key centres and moments in the construction of the alliance?

Thor or Superman?

Okay, I'm learning that diplomacy grognard snobs only play WTA. Fine. They're busting my balls about it at vdip. They're a bunch of asses over there.

question inside

After *that* move where you get 2/3 centres and suddenly look like you're set for a solo: how do you convince the other players not to turn on you yet?

Basically this thread is for the new players to ask question to the more experienced players and mods. This is just for them if they didn't read the tutorial.

Media is media; I'm struggling to comprehend if this outbreak is even worth keeping up on.

I'm confused, on this site, there's spring and autumn. What happened to Winter?
When is the supply center gained?
Also, do I need a unit to phisycally exist in the supply center's country during the gain phase? Or perhaps it's enough that the unit passed there before?

I have a strange situation - attacks from several places. Can I simulate it somewhere?

I thought this question was interesting enough to warrant its own discussion? Should math be considered a science? What about engineering? Where does applied science end and engineering begin? Thoughts?

Noob here -- I'm interested in taking over England for this game:

How do I get the correct password?

I remember seeing some Diplomacy position problems that a webdip user had put together (eg: "given this position, and a hostile Germany and France, how can England keep London?"). Does anyone have a link to this? Or to a similar resource?

Actually, I think they are on in the same, but what about this match up?

I was wondering if any of you coders out there can code a new feature that allows a player to repeat the previous phase's moves. This would be really useful when playing stalemate games that are drawn out by one player attempting to break through, hoping for an NMR or waiting for others to be taken out of the draw. It gets very boring sometimes to enter the same moves repeatedly and helps to avoid careless mistakes.

Atlantic Ocean colonial era. Have a USA, Brazil, Carribbean, England, France, Italy, Spain/Portugal, Holland

..... please keep us all informed of latest activity.

Let's have a nice, pleasant, daisy-filled conversation. Pomf. :3

My friends and I made a youtube account called the EpicFun Timebrigade we play all kinds of games and we take requests. If you can't find our account just look up my friend mrafroman20 he has a link to our group channel. He also sends out the word when we stream on twitch and now I will started sending the word out on here too. We thank Mr Zultar for letting us advertise on his site.

Let's save our site...

..... what is your first thought as to who did this?

http://edition.cnn.com/2014/07/28/us/palin-news-channel/index.html

Is there anyone out here who actually thinks that Palin has (or ever had) anything relevant to say? If so, please explain to me why I am wrong to think she's got the intellect of a baked potato (although the latter probably tastes better when eaten).

If 4 friends join a game, they will be unbeatable :(

Spring 2014 Tournament

I was wondering what are the current standings with the couple of games that recently finished... I was dead last before the solo, so I want to know if there is still hope of at least second place now that I have bounced back. I think josemurcs was winning by a lot, but with the latest results maybe he is no longer leading so easily?

Pepsi VS Coca Cola vs Dr Pepper

I freely downloaded the source code for the site last night, and now I have some things to share with you about what I've found.

I m looking for 6 reliable players for a game.
'Reliable' as in 'will not nmr', 'will not cd', 'will not turn out to be a multi in the middle of the game' and 'will respect the site rules and guidelines so I wont get banned in the middle of the game'. Signups here.

I will return, and when I am come, the Forum shall have its Voice again. Yes, a Voice calls from the wilderness... Strain your ear and listen:

"whose dragnar is he knew lul"

Game name - sukla
