New 1 Hour game

I hope to start a 1 Hour game at around 10:30-11:00 Eastern. I'm not sure what GMT that is. Anyone interested?

Anyone ever player Dip for real money?

Just curious. I play poker at the casinos an online all the time. I've also had small pot Dip home games, but the pot usually went to buy the pizza and beer when it was all said and done.

I'd love to have a real game sometime for more than pizza money (say $25-$50 per player). It could be played poker tournament style where 3rd place gets their money back. 2nd gets 2x the buyin. And 1st gets the other 4x the buyin. Draws would still be paid out by place (most SCs to least) and, in the case of a tie, the remaining players would vote as to who played the better game.

Is this something anyone else might be interested in? If you're local to greater Cincinnati, I could probably get one of the Indiana casinos to open up a private room with bar service as long as they didn't have to supply a dealer and got a cut.

While I don't think I could make it to Ohio for a game, I would argue that draws should be paid out evenly.

The game sounds like a lot of fun ... a trip to Cincinnati? ... not so much ;-)

Well, the draws could be distributed as a lump sum and the "team" distribute it.

We could do the game at a casino in IN on the river, where gambling is actually legal.

The original Dollar Diplomacy Tournament event was scheduled for Vegas almost 40 years ago.
The Rules were as follows:
For each game you paid in $50 which was divided up as follows:
$10 went to the gamesmaster
$340 for a solo and everyone else got nothing
$170 was divided equally to those in a draw
$5 per supply center owned at the end of the game

The idea was to have 7 games in the tournament with each player playing in effect all countries over the course of the tournament for a total commitment of $350.

The Tournament was schedule and people recruited. It came up 2 people short and never came off.

Supporting hold

I've noticed that very often two adjacent units will support into each others territories. The rules state that "A unit not ordered to move can be supported by a support order that only mentions its province". This seems to suggest that two adjacent allied units can both support the others hold, giving two provinces defending with a strength of two (barring support being cut).

Is this how it works?

How long do you hold a stalemate?

Curly's thread got me thinking. When you reach a stalemate position, how long do you normally hold it before moving on?
Although obviously each case is different, and it depends what sort of responses you're getting from the other players, personally I'd say that 3 years with no progress makes it time to think about drawing...

What are the consequences of Civil Disorder

One someone is in Civil Disorder, what happens?

Can they still issue orders if they return?
Does the game wait until the full phase ends to see if they do enter orders or are they assumed to have finalized holds as soon as the phase opened?

need a 7th-- somebody got kicked out

Need a 7th for Star Sign Wars. Somebody got booted from the game for multi-accounting. It'd be a shame to have Turkey controlled by a bot, because Russia isn't paying much attention, either... sound tempting?

Help from moderator needed

Dear Kesta, this game is a victim of the previous bug. The Unit placing round of 1905 is skipped, and everything is skewed afterwards.

Crypto-Press?

So, new idea for a variant. Yet again, I'd have to wait to actually play it here until I get some points. Maybe I'll just stop fighting Babak in that one game and let him get to 18 so I can cash in. ;-)
