Group F - Game 4 replacement needed.
NevilleChamberlain will soon be cd. As it stands now, orders are not being entered. I believe that there is a family illness, so please let's not have any nasty comments.

can you retreat via convoy?
Like if I'm attacked in London, and I have no territories in England, but I have territories in france, and a fleet in the english channel. Will my unit be retreated to brest for example (which btw contains no units), or will my unit be destroyed if beaten in an attack?

League replacement wanted
Group A has suffered a civil disorder. If anyone wants to take over this player, they should email me to arrange it (my email is in my profile).
There is another game to start also, so there is a chance of getting an improved position in next season, if you want to join the leagues.

To Kestas/Moderators:
Just to settle this controversy once and for all:

What was the original reason for creating the Forum?
What are we supposed to use the Forum for?

Friendly Sword (636 D)

Long ago, Kestas predicted that a player who would name themself diplomat1824 would join his diplomacy site.

Kestas knew the heights of silliness this player could could ascend to, and thus to create a forum on his site, to allow the other players to ridicule this poor soul.

And so Kestas waited for this diplomat to appear, and grace the forum with his presence...

you are an odd one diplomat i have to give you that i guess.
It should be blindly obvious that the forum serves any purpose you want it too, help with the rules and etiquette in games, idle chat while awaiting replies, discussions about any topic under the sun with other people who like diplomacy and in general building a sense of community.

Im excited the prophesy has at last been realized, but the forum was designed for whatever info people might want to convey to other members, so there aren't any real rules on subjects for discussion except common sense ones :-)

His actions all make sense if you realize that he's trolling.
stratagos (3269 D(S))
14 Dec 08 UTC
I think a lot of people do realize that wonderllama, but a percentage don't care, because it can be satisfying to ridicule someone who makes themselves such an easy target.

What they forget is that by buying in to the process, they perpetuate it, because the notoriety is what the troll desires, not agreement with the stupidity they post
aoe3rules (949 D)
14 Dec 08 UTC
notoriety like the notoriety you've just given him, stratagos?
Here's some more notoriety. Is Diplomat1824 the moderator at the website "borrowing" this sites code? If so, this is your good buddy that you love so well from the other site :) Good job! It's always good when moderators from one website who understand the burdens of moderating try to bring down there competitor websites. You are a class guy, as I've always presumed.
If it really is you, bet your wife thinks so too ;) (or did you make that up as well?)

ps (first post here -- looking forward to joining in on this site, and leaving the other one!)
Here's a double post like the kind I got in trouble for at the other site:

I want posting to be fun and funny!! :D

[do I get in trouble for posting twice in a row like the other site? They told me I was not using "common sense" by putting two posts back to back... even thought that was the point.... to be funny]

Hey, everybody. If you read the thread "Suggestion", which I posted on Friday (East of the International Dateline), then you would understand that there was a controversy over the intent of the Forum. But, now that it has been cleared up, then I will start a second petition...

ha, the forum is actually pretty cool...its a lot funner talking/reading to people who can think...well most of them...but some threads here are rather..."disturbing"...
I've heard the accent on conTROVesy, but I'm not sure where the speaker came from.
trim101 (363 D)
14 Dec 08 UTC
no philcore im pretty sure we say ADvertisment, well anyway you lot say herb (erb),aluminium (fuck knows),route (rout),oregano (oragano) and multiple others in a very weird way
trim101 (363 D)
14 Dec 08 UTC
@dingleberry you sure it wasnt an american putting on a fake english accent becuase if they were thats how they would say controversy but its not how the english say it, well not how londoners say it
philcore (317 D(S))
15 Dec 08 UTC
we say erb. also a-LUM-in-um instead of al-u-MIN-ium. rout verses root (for route) is variable even in the US.

But really on the advertisement? I've seen many English shows pronounce it ad-VERT-is-ment

My Signature :)
"Uncountably many, and counting" is joke in the flavor of "There are 10 kinds of people in the world, those who understand binary, and those who don't", but a little more subtle :) because you may think you understand it, but [mathematically] you don't.

Can I force an army of myself to move out?
Hello everyone! Quick question regarding the rules:
If say I have an army in Munich that I move to Burgund. France has an army in Paris that moves to Burgund too so neither gets in.
Now if I also play army Kiel to Munich supported by army Berlin what happens to my army Munich? Is it forced out of Munich and has to retreat in some open territory?

Suggestion (not related to a previous thread of mine)
I say we reserve the forum for discussing strategy, questions, and petitioning the mods/Kestas. Not pointless political arguements like ones I've participated in. Please don't call me a hypocrite. People have their views and you have yours. Live with it.

Which units get disbanded first?
If no orders are submitted, which units get automatically disbanded? My recollection of the rules was that it was the unit furthest away, where more than 1 equally distant then fleets before armies and in alphabetical order. However, the auto disbands I see follow a different pattern, does anyone know what it is?

Need Admin Help!
The game 'TAG Diplomacy game #2' has run afoul of bad feelings between all of the players. Rather than have the situation continue to degrade, I am hoping that there is a way to 'cancel' the game. I am the one who initiated the game.
