Special Rules Game: A center is randomly selected (through chance) at the start of the game. Whoever controls it a decade later (Fall 1910) wins. If you solo before then, you win as well. Draws are not allowed. There will always be one winner and 6 losers. Standard Map, 36 hour phases, WTA. 1. steephie22
They're basically KotH, but with less and less supply centres on the board so that there's only one remaining. In rising seas, Switzerland is the last SC (I forget when it becomes passable), and in shifting sands it's Iceland. These probably aren't playable on webdip, but they're on realpolitik i think.
Hey guys, I noticed we don't have a record of this going on in the mod email. Can you shoot us a quick email to [email protected] with the rules so we have it on record in case we get any questions on it?
Although I mentioned it before, we haven't really discussed what happens if someone takes the target center. Is everyone okay with allowing the winner to take 18 SCs?
I also just came to the conclusion I did in fact mention the rule that the winner is allowed to take 18 centers in the first post I made in this thread. I'm asking the mods what they think on the matter now.
Thanks Jamiet. Steephie, the mods didn't "rule" it will be cancelled at game end. We asked the players- who voted to cancel, as Jamiet pointed out. We're not here to tell people how to play their games - but we *are* here to help out with running interesting variants like this one :)
I'm really interested to see how this goes - good luck everyone!
I stand corrected and apologise, I didn't mean to imply the mods were to blame for anything. Clearly I messed up a little, we should've figured this out before the game started. I guess I wrongly assumed there would be no issues there.
I'm basically offering to host the game records on my site in case anyone disappointed by the outcome of the vote would appreciate having it on record somewhere.
If this variant catches on, that's also convenient for exploiting my bragging rights, stating the rules, keeping scores etc.
No worries Steephie. I think it'd be a great service if you want to host the records afterwards! Capt has put maps on imgur before (and I think he offered to do just that above) - but it'd be good to have a record of the rules that isn't just the forum.
Yup, thanks for the offer captainmeme! Isn't it simply copying and pasting all maps to an online server and then showing them on the site though? Unless there's an easier method to show the pictures directly on my site, I think they don't need to be on imgur as well, although you're free to do that of course, captainmeme.
Still thanks for the offer though! Unless I forgot something, that won't be neccessary.
I know that when you click save instead of ready, you get a gray check. But if time runs out before you click ready, are your saved moves inputed or do you have no moves for that turn?
Colorblindness update and live game display option
Colorblind options are now live. Live game display option is also live. Both settings can be changed under "settings." Much thanks to ATC and the dev team, including thorfi, Kestas, and Oli. ATC will also push out the auto update fix for the colorblind option soon. You might have to manually update your map to see the change at the moment. Please thank them for the work they do and let us know how much you enjoy these updates!

To fill out a locked game. Full disclosure several of us have played multiple games together, and some know one another personally, but we all leave that at the door and play to win. gameID=160620 Ppsc, full press, non anon, 1901
An Ancient Mediterranean Game, looking for players.
I would like to start a game in the Ancient Mediterranean. There will be messaging and press, and maybe anonymous players. This game will have normal turn lengths (1 day) and may or may not be password protected. Would anyone be interested in this?
Rule 1: READ THE RULES; It is your responsibility to know and follow all the rules (http://webdiplomacy.net/rules.php) Rule 2: Try the FAQ section (http://webdiplomacy.net/FAQ.php) Ask questions not covered by Rules 1 and 2 and receive wisdom.
You all heard the news before. I asked people not to forget, so I'm reminding people today again. There was a second quake this morning of similar magnitude (7.3), killing many, but more importantly right now, people are forced to live communally outdoors as the monsoon season approaches.
