NMRs and Civil Disorder
I'm new here can someone please explain how the NMR and CD rules work here. How many times can a power NMR before they go into CD. What happens to the game if one of the powers goes CD? Is it canceled, paused? What happens to your bet? Do you just get it back?

Are countries assigned randomly?
New to this site here, so sorry if this is answered elsewhere that I didn't find. Are countries assigned randomly when a game starts? (I'm noticing in the Championship Belt Game Series that xorxes always plays Austria and captainmeme always plays France, but have not found any setting for choosing a country or assigning preferences or anything.)

Uber is kind of cool
So, I dont actually plan to spend money. But I downloaded this cool app called uber. I think its like, taxi cabs or toy cars or something. But they move. They wiggle around and travel places on this cool map that looks a little like real life. I watched this one car strolling down a highway. This is neat. How do I take over one of these cartoon car thingys

Guess you fail at proving you arent a moral degenerate.

An apology would likely have been accepted had you owned up to being a dullard cyber bully. But I guess its hard to look yourself in the mirror and take accurate stock of who you are. Maybe its a result of a weak locus of control in life. Who knows.

Well Brad if there was something you feel was inappropriate you surely could have mentioned it. I have no clue what you did in military service for example, frankly, dont care - to me its still an overfunded social program. I dont care if you served or not. I dont place military people on a pedestal. If they want respect they can earn it like anyone else, pay your way, wirk hard, stay humble and shut the hell up.

As far as anything else thats been said, you are a bit of a creep and a clueless republican yes man. But beyond that I dont consider you to be a deplorable human being. Close but not deplorable.

“Stay humble and shut the hell up”

sounds like something a sexist or racist would say to someone they despise.

or he is a Ben Fisher fan.

Not speaking up about subtle [ insert item here ] behaviour is a tactic endorsement that it is acceptable.

Well, we have seven players, Jamiet99uk, CNote, Yigg, CommanderByron, Condescension, Brainbomb and myself. I will set up a game and PM the players with the password etc
MajorMitchell (1874 D)
01 Nov 17 UTC
I've set up the game & sent the PMs out. Once everyone has joined I will post details of the game so that any interested members can join as spectators. There's some real talent in this, and myself and Dipbro Brainbomb as the circus clowns. There are a couple of very highly rated players, so the potential "bragging rights" involved are substantial. There's also the Dipbro Brainbomb "wildcard" factor for added excitement.
I'm wondering if there is an expert who might like to spectate and provide a forum "commentary & analysis" (Skool of War style)
Perhaps Omnipotent Zultar might offer a bonus "Prodigal Son Cup" points award to the winner, or somehow bump the points pot higher ?

Re the welcome back game. Jamiet99uk and Yigg confirmed via PMs that they have joined I'm in, and two others. We're waiting on two players to join.
So, Brainbomb, CNote, CommanderByron & Condescension, I assume two of you have joined and two are still to join. Please post or PM me and advise me if you've joined. If you haven't, then please do join, otherwise we might have to find alternative players.

I do not play games if I suspect that anyone will NMR (which is the normal case here). I only play games with other Swedes I know on vDip that don't NMR!
MajorMitchell (1874 D)
03 Nov 17 UTC
Well I can guarantee that with 40 points invested in this game, I won't be NMR~ing. Plus several of the other players have impressive ratings, good reputations. So, if that's a serious allegation aimed at this game, then it might be regarded as an innacurate insult. I'll be generous and treat it as an attempt at humour.
MajorMitchell (1874 D)
03 Nov 17 UTC
And you never know, Omnipotent Zultar who "sees all at WebDiplomacy" in his joy to have Jamiet99uk back at WebDiplomacy, plus a thankful team of Almighty Mods might surprise us with a bonus points prize for the ( it's SoS scoring ) participants in a draw, or the winner of "The Prodigal Son Cup". Plus the potential " bragging rights" are significant. So I doubt that there will be many, if any NMRs in this game.

The hazards of being such a popular chap. Hoorah, the game has started so I cannot talk about it. Apart to announce for any interested spectators, it's called Prodigal Son Returns and is game number 209474. The winner gets the "Prodigal Son Cup"...Look out for Jamiet99uk's classic " Silesian Surprise "

Not all orders (most notably support orders) are shown on the small preview map of a game and, especially in Gunboat, this is pretty problematic.

Axis & Allies general discussion thread
See title. I started playing it about a month ago. It's quite fun and a very different challenge from Diplomacy. I'm still getting my head wrapped around the editions, but I believe my group plays the "Classic" version (Spring 1942 start and there are no artillery, destroyers, etc.)

A friend and I are also working on a "present-day" version.
