Congrats Red Wings!
Just wanted to say congrats on a great series and for taking the Stanley Cup, the greatest trophy in all of sports, back to Detroit for the fourth time in 11 years.

I'm a hockey fan from Detroit (aka Hockeytown) who also plays hockey (as a goalie) so that explains this post. Feel free to chime in, good or bad.

No Points
I am new to this game. I currently have no points and cannot join any game. Is the only way to gain point is to host my own game?

Totally non-Dip question about Google Chat...
How can I set it so that I always get the older version of Gmail?

I want to remove the Chat Box from the left hand margin. I do not use it / will not use it / am a bit peed off that I cannot keep the base page as original style.

Any help appreciated.

Diplomacy on my phone errors
I have a Motorola Q with Verizon in the USA. I frequently respond to countries via my phone, though seeing the map is difficult. The 'x' mark on the games tab does not show up on my phone, though the envelope DOES show. And in the list of players on a table, the check and xmarks after each player do not show. Any idea why?

Kestas - Point system for a draw is incorrectly rendered.
According to game rules, all players with units left on the board are to share equally in a draw. This is not the case in phpDip. Points earned are calculated based on the ratio of sc's held over 34. This is not Diplomacy.

In the game 'toledo paintball', I played as England and held an impenetrable position with only 7 sc's to my credit. It would have been to my benefit simply to refuse a draw and force my opposing allies to stab one another. Instead, I lobbied for a draw. The next time, I'll hold out until Autumn 2050.

Please comment.

Hello I am back
Hi! I don't know whether you remember me.
But I was the one who always signed off with the request to prevent users from playing more than one game at a time to prevent metagaming.

So will you keep on signing off with that request?

There have been many changes since...
For example, support convoys are now allowed, and there are no more problems regarding moves. (It's the odd error that pops out)
Convoying is done the standard way now. You can no longer dislodge your own pieces too!

There are also 2 types of scoring method: PPSC (points per sc) and WTA (winner-takes-all).
The names quite explain themselves...

ah that's great changes

At the risk of sounding like a total moron, how do you set whether a game is PPSC or WTA? It seems I've never had the option and my games have always been PPSC.

Preventing any user from playing more games at a time is not going to prevent metagaming. Why did you think it would?
fastspawn (1625 D)
04 Jun 08 UTC
it's quite simple actually kaaroy, the M.O of a metagamer is this: to gain as many points(victories) as fast as possible, and to involve himself in as many games as possible with his "creations".

My idea was to limit challenge in such a way that a player can only play one game at a time with another player

For example GAME 1
contains
Mr. A
Mr. B
and 5 others

Game 2
if Mr. A joins, Mr. B cannot join.

What it means is that normally, a metagamer need only create 3-4 identities to own dozens of games. Now to do so he would need 50 or so identities.

i like that idea. but it would also limit some legit players from playing with RL friends. tracking IP Address would still be better
problem is, there aren't enough of us to separate every game. Also, I enjoy playing the same person in different games. It's more fun when you are playing against someone that you feel a bit more familiar with from seeing their strategy and play-style.

you can only open WTA games if you have 101 points or more.
Below that, you don't see the option.

Noob question
I have another noob question. I'm having trouble with the clock that says "End of phase: x hours." I figure out when the phase will be over, then I log on about a half-hour earlier than that, but still a new phase has began. How long is a phase, and how does it end?
