Bug Report

In game Go Chargers (http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=2973) I (Germany) was unable to place units last fall, even though I've got 14 supply depots and only 13 units... anyone know why this might be?

Bug in support move orders?

I cannot upload the third field of any support move orders in http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=2879.
I submit the filled fields, they stay pink and never turn white, while my browser hangs on. Has anybody else experienced such a problem?
Thanks for your attention.

Tournament Update

It's been a while since anything's been said about the Grand Festive Diplomacy Tournament in the forum, so I thought I'd give an update.

We're in the midst of round 2. We seem to have lost two players to CD and one player only joined one of his games, but otherwise things have been going smoothly. A few of the games seem to be nearing completion, but there are still a few very interesting games going on. If you're interested in checking them out, visit the official tournament page at: http://www.llamanation.org/grandfestivediplomacytournament2007. That will have as up-to-date information on the tournament as I've written anywhere.

If the links tell you you're not a member of the game and don't show you the map, remove the www. from the game url's and they should work, thanks to an interesting quirk of phpdip.

I'll post updates in this thread as games complete and once the players moving on to the finals have been decided.

New Turn Length

Are the 48-hour turn lengths intentional? I can get used to it I'm just wondering.

In my games everything is running smoothly and I am very appreciative of supporting convoys and no self-displacement. However I am curious as to how the map will replace Game Master tab. Anyway I'm sure that will resolve itself, my main question is about the new turn lengths. I hadn't heard Kestas mention that so I'm curious.

Bug Glitch in Abgemacht

Abgemacht
Autumn 1904, Unit-placing
By my count I should be placing two units, but "The game" is informing me that I have nothing to do this round. We are also in a 40 hour turn, which seems a bit long to me.

Public Apology to all players affected by my meta gaming before.

Dear Kestas and all phpDiplomacy players,

I am here to apologise and say sorry to all players affected by my meta gamings before. Sorry for all inconveniences and unpleasure caused.

In order to show my sincere repentance, I will stop playing all the acounts.

I will start a new account, try to avoid playing with my classmates, or play with them in password games,
to enjoy the pleasure brought by this wonderful game with all phpDiplomacy players.

I hope that everyone will forgive me and let me repent, change and start over in this game again.

Hope that you will accept my public apology.

Thank you for all your attentions.

(Forgive me that my English sucks too:))

NEW Players - FEB/MAR

I've noticed a lot of new names in the games recently. Welcome to PhpDip.
how about you guys introduce yourselves and tell us a bit about your dip exp etc.

Zarathustra (3672 )

My real name is Sam and I am a law student in New York. All my experience comes from the real thing baby! All day game sessions that last until everyone has a headache and every friendship is broken

McCain (100 )

I'm Dan, I'm a college student from Philadelphia(go to college in New England). I've never played diplomacy before, in any shape or form, but I played axis and allies and saw an advert for diplomacy on it. It looked too hard to pull off in real life, so I searched the internet for a downloadable version. Lo and behold, I found PhPDiplomacy. It was very hard at first to learn, but I am getting the hang of it now.

McCain (100 )

indeed. I'm not some skinhead racist. I'm more of an anti-communist, anti-jihadist who sees the beauty of western civilization being destroyed by those who would over-secularize, over-equalize, and apologize for the crimes of medieval fundamentalist muslims. I love Kierkegaard, Descartes, and Kant. As well as, of course, Augustine, and Calvin.

well if you love kant then thank god for you. honestly conservatives of all stripes too regularly attack kant and the kantian tradition and i think, wow, you got to be retarded to attack kant like that. the ayn rand conservatives have their a=a attack on kant, some of the more intellectual rightwingers blame kant for the entire stretch of modern liberalism and postmodernity in particular, the straight up christians are not down, its really rough. because most liberals don't understand the implications of the kantian revolution and moderates probably aren't informed in the first place. i feel like i've said this a million times on this forum - these exact words actually so im a bit spooked by the groundhog day deja vu thing im feeling right now, but suffice to say that it takes the few people who get the enlightenment an enormous amount of work to protect this legacy, because there is a lot working against it.

Fearless (100 )

Hmm..names Fearless *no need to give personal details*, i only joined because of my fiancee happens to like this game, though we argue over it quite a lot.

I havent been here long, maybe a few weeks and all ready i'm sick and tired of the cheaters, its unreal how many there are. I dont do much with myself..i play a lot of strategy games, and i wouldnt call this that strategic, its diplomatic..big difference, i've sopent years studying battles and formations, and writtings from sun tzu and other great strategists, i particularly favour Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang.

I listen to rock, and i'm an Rper, i role play on 3k based sites or fantasy sites..ect ect

DeathOfRats, aka Durban, aka Mark.

From Liverpool, England

Too 'rubbish' to even notice anyone cheating, so it hasn't bothered me yet.

Not been playing Dip long, and it shows.

Big Pearl Jam Fan, thats about the only semi-interesting thing about me I'm afraid....older than most and younger than some...
I was once a Multi-Millionairre but lost nearly all of it on a bet!

SoothingOceanSounds (126 )
09 Mar 08 UTC

I played about three quarters of a year ago on an account whose name I cannot remember in games I can't seem to find, so technically I AM a multi-accounter. Those were my first two games ever and I lost them both, one pretty badly as Russia.

Diplomacy makes me too paranoid though so I'm not really suited to playing a lot of games here.

Fearless (100 )
09 Mar 08 UTC

Welcome you two to the new members clan lol xD

I'm from Nottingham, England and its really easy to spot multi-accounters and the sorts, i did play this game before as laotzu, in 2 games, but i was betrayed on my first game by the 3 people who asked me to join, so i stopped playing for a long time because - its not nice being backstabbed when you dont even know how to support hold your territory lol.

Now i'm not so bad. But yeah, i've noticed a few new people suddenly turning up within the last few weeks, its good to see, i'm just curious to know how many of these people are legitamate accounts, or are they clones? who knows xD

sean (3490 )
09 Mar 08 UTC

i joined in dec last year, the only problem ive really seen is some metagaming from friends (mainly groups of guys who go to the same college) but it hasnt been that bad. multiaccounting ive heard about on the forum but i dont think ive come across it in a game yet.
fearless, what are 3k based games?
i dont think cheating is a huge problem and with upgrades to version .8 and on i think it will be less and less of a problem.

Zalyana (702 )
09 Mar 08 UTC

3k games are text based role-playing games. 3k means Three Kingdoms; its a period in Chinese history. The first 3k role playing sites originated because of a game called Dynasty Warriors - if any of you know what that is. :p

And yeah, I'm the fiancee fearless was talking about. ^_^

white russia and the map

im sure this has been asked bef0re but why isnt russia white? isnt it white in the board game? it didnt look good? how about a cream/beige?
ive always thought the phpdip board a little too dark. some ligher colours might make it look nicer. and if it was lighter that would allow germany to be black...a much cooler looking colour than brown.

Suggestions for Kestas

Countries in CD should defend themselves. Units that can should hold support each other.

In the fall, countries without SCs, that cannot retreat into an open SC, should not be asked to retreat and disband. Too many players don't finalize those steps. The remaining players get to wait 48 hours.

Replying to people who always accuse, me, timchau, happyklim or other players in my class.

Let me explain to you guys about me and the players in my class first:

I am from Hong Kong, China.

I am in F.3, i.e. grade 9

My classmates playing phpDiplomacy include:

1. myself

2. saradomian

3. Gobbledydook

4. Chairman Mao

5. kn2005

6. timchau

7. happyklim

8. jasperleeabc

9.galaxypheonix

We are in the same class, and gobbledydook introduces this game to me. Soon, many of my classmates join, and we also like playing together. Playing in the the same game is not forbidden.

So I sincerely hope that you guys will stop making up things like we all are meta gaming.

Replying to sean:

Sometimes our classmate dosen't have enough points or don't want to play such low pot games. Also, some of us don't have too much time to play so many games. So, if we want to play private games, we would rather play the game on paper during the lesson... or free time :D

I hope this will answer all the questions to all of us.

Babysitter Wanted!

So, I'm going away for five days to Montreal during March break, and I'm looking for someone to take care of my account during the period. I'm only in one game, and it's basically a guaranteed win, so it's very low maintenance.

I'll be gone from March 7th to March 12th. E-mail me at [email protected] if you think you can take this job. Only two requirements, that you be relatively known and trustworthy, and obviously you aren't participating in my one game...

Thanks in advance!
