i counted the games, i got no points when it ended and there are 9 finished games with my name crossed out but my stats went up to 10 defeats

Did you look at the forum to find the end-of-game message to you?

Look for a message from GameMaster

um can a mod check his finished games please

you have been eliminated in an active game. so you have 9 finished games where you were defeated and 1 in the active games section.

Well, a mod should check him, because in this game:

http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=8212

Call "ant wants his money back", he played against moneyforant1 through 6, and, go figure, he won.

And about the 10 defeats, that's because you have a defeat in an active game ("for new players only (like me)")

I don't know about the points.

yeah thats what i meant by can a mod check his finished games i already emailed figle

Alright, I was gonna email Chrisp and DM, but figle will take care of it.

please ban multiaccounts

It seems that you missed the last two diplomacy phases for that game. You may have gone CD right before the game ended, so you got no points.

Just guessing.

a mod has checked that game and i have had a conversation with one who closed the accounts and decided to take no further action. those were not 6 other people that i cheated against i just didnt realise how diplomacy worked back then, that wasnt the game i wanted help with anyway.

thanks for the reply thouh, i think you are probably right as it was a 2 hour phase and i went out drinking. i thought civil disorder caused you to get your money back, or is that only when someone takes over from you, which didnt happen for me even though its likely i was in civil disorder. if this is what happens then thats fine i guess as i just wanted an explanation, and to report a possible bug

You survived the game, but your country was in civil disorder, so any rewards you may have earned were plundered. Better luck next time!

i never realised what i see in the forums is different for me and not global

You get those messages personally, everything else is global yes.
If you ever finish a game and wonder, search 'GameMaster' (ctrl+f) on the forum and you'll find the message you want.

It was me who dealt with the issue of the money for ant issue. The issue was clearly not an attempt to directly cheat other players as it was just his accounts in that game. The game was only for 175 points, so the gain was not large.
At the time I discovered this, ant had less than 100 points, and when I asked him he explained straight away that he hadn't understood the points refunding system.
