WARNING: DON'T PLAY WITH "MASTERNINJA"
Just a friendly word to all: Avoid playing with "masterninja" at all costs. I hate to ever call someone out publicly or make a scene, but this guy really deserves it. Any game that he does not win, he will call the winner out for metagaming and try to get their account banned by the mods. He makes asshole remarks and just takes the overall fun out of a pleasant game. Avoid at all costs. Also, mods, please look in to banning this player. Many thanks.

Russia Statistic
I need to relearn how to program (I haven't since Hyperstudio: go ahead and laugh all you programmers who know what that is lol ^_^) because this was boringly tedious and I would prefer statistics where I could play with the parameters being analyzed via a user friendly program

How much evidence is enough?
So, say I've watched the records of a pair of players and they consistently join games together and are always on the same side and always stab their allies to benefit the other player. How much evidence is enough to report them? The FAQ was a bit vague.

A Movement to bring back
First off, I want it to be known that I am in awe of the new update kestas is working on. I think it makes the site so much faster and easier to use and am excited for its full implementation! That being said... I feel that the terms "Update" and "Finalize" are so much more classy than "Update" and "Save" -- which are somewhat awkward and boring. Anyone with me, please voice your opinion here!

Game strategies for newbies
Hello everyone. I'm new to this site but played Diplomacy a bit at college years ago.
After browsing the forums a bit I've noticed mentions of named strategies in some posts e.g. "Alpine ambush" (I think this one was a joke though).
Is there somewhere that such strategies are displayed/discussed?
I 'm just looking to speed up my re-learning of the game and don't have the spare lifetime to trawl through all the games on the site.

Oh yes, and while I'm asking questions, what do CD and NMR stand for?
Perry6006 (5409 D)

CD- Civil Disorder (a country has no player)
NMR - No Moves Received (self-explaining..)
orathaic (1009 D(B))

CD = Civil Disorder - what happens when you stop entering orders for your country (for two years), generally considered rude.

NMR = No Moves Recieved - when you don't enter moves on once occasion.

here are some links to online resources, i don't usually find straegy articles discussed on this site, except when people mention seeing specific openings, or stalematelines...

CD stands for Civil Disorder, a term used to describe a player that has left the game.

NMR, stands for No Moves Received and it is widely used as a verb when a player does not enter orders.

HAHA, it seems I was late to refresh my browser. As you'll notice, many players here are glad to help new guys. Some have devoted their attention to entire series of mentor games including commentary. Those are called the School of War.

orathaic posted a good site, my particular favorite for new players is Edi's guide hosted there:

yes, the place i learned the names of the different opening styles is from Richard Sharp's book The Game of Diplomacy (you can google it and the entire book is available online to read for free). it also discusses the location of major stalemate lines and some common strategies for each country.

Is this considered cheating?
Ok, I just finished an anon gunboat game, and decided to see who the two people I drew against were. They are judas User ID#: 18497, and duzenko User ID#: 18431. duzenko has finished 17 games, and judas has finished 18 games. ALL of duzenko's games have been with judas. And they have allied in each game. How wrong is this? I feel that I could have won the game had they not been 'allied' in the anon gunboat game. Seriously, let's ruin the fun.

No more automatic move updating
I thought, that for a moment the game updated or 'saved', whatever is the word now, automatically.
Now it's reverted to snail pace.
What has happened?
