What did you guys want to be when you grew up.

I'm not an adult yet, and I still am unsure about what job I want. I used the Holland personality codes, and I'm an IES, which suggests pharmacist, but that doesn't particularly appeal to me. Some other jobs it says I might be good at are physician, actuary, and training manager. Of those, actuary and training manager look the most intersting. But this isn't just about me. What dod you guys want to be when you grew up?

Disband instead of retreat

My understanding of the rules of the game were that you were allowed to simply disband a unit instead of retreating it. Is this also true of webdiplomacy? When the retreat round comes will my pull down menu offer a disband option?

Anyone live within a few hours of Gainsville, FL?

If you are interested in a Face-to-Face game, there is an avid Dip player who wants to try to organize sme ftf games in FL. I personally live a few hours away, but we find the 3-4 other players we need, it'd be worth trying to organize a game. write inside if you want to play or live close enough.

I am so SICK of the Gaga Person!

She's an unoriginal hackjob with no talent except to gratify others through the basest of all techniques (in other words, she'd make Hugh Hefner pretty happy) and for getting her name out with scandals that flood the Web and take away from the important news (Arizona's immigration law? BP Oil Spill? The Economy?)

How do you feel about this...person (and THIS pisses me off): http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/stopthepresses/220323/lady-gaga-photo-irks-beatles-fans/

Purpose of "... 1 hours"

Does anyone know why we have to option to have phases that are "1 days, 1 hours" or "2 days, 1 hours"? I'm just curious why we have that option?

So long fairwell.

Just to let you guys know, I'm finishing my current games and then leaving the site. It has been a pleasure knowing most of you :) I have a few new furrows to plough and this game is taking up a little too much of my time. Bye.

Corrupt a Wish

The first person makes a positive wish, and the next person plays the role of the djinn granting the wish, and then turning it into a disaster. The second person then makes the next wish, and the cycle repeats itself.

(NSA) program: PERFECT CITIZEN

Some think it is an innocuous program to shore up America's cyber-security, especially in critical areas such as power and nuclear grids. Some think it is far more sinister, and a raytheon insider called it "big brother" What do you think?

It's a terrible country to develop from. I have no idea how to play it. And yet, somehow, the website seems to think that roughly half the time, Italy's the country for me.

Face To Face Tips

I play my first ever face to face diplomacy game in tournament play against some old toughies this weekend. It is expected to take 5-9 hours. Barring the marathon aspect (I'm fairly used to about 5 hour live games online), any tips from ftf veterans on this site?

A'holes leaving the game?

I just had a game where a person left the game for no apparent reason other than it looked like they may not win. This really throws off a game. First, how and why can a person do this? Second, is there a way to flag them or block them from games so they can't keep doing it to you?

Facebook diplomacy - any devs out there?

Hey, I'm a mod on the facebook app for diplomacy, but the person who set me up (and presumably has higher-level access) has gone incommunicado.

There are some problems with the forum and profiles and I wonder if the database needs a clear-out. Can anyone over here work on the facebook app, or is it totally stranded now?

What are the problems you're having? I do have access to FB-webDip at the moment, but I can't help but feel like if I sort out the problems over there and get everything working again I'll get cut out of the loop again until something new comes up. Doesn't motivate me to jump in sort out problems really, especially when all ad revenue goes elsewhere. I wish Chris could let me take over fully, since he seems uninterested and it's not helping anyone :-(

But hey if you let me know what the issues are exactly I'll see if they'd be fairly easy to resolve

ivo+2...

coming from a guy with arguably the best record on FB dip. 100% wins and draws after 17 games ;)

there are a few top-notch awesome players there... Julian, Fitzi, Stephen, warriorpoet, and avinoam to name a few... but most of them are no longer playing there anyways. and we've brought Ursa and Pete U here already... so come join... it wont take you too long to get the points :)

Oh, I do all my playing here now, barring one game I'm in with warrior poet...but I started modding on facey b because the community was so bad, in part because no mods were ever on..and people who enjoy the app often make it over here, like me.

Anyway, kestas, the biggest problem right now is the forum-threads aren't appearing, and when you open threads not all replies are appearing either. People have also reported seeing wrong numbers of games in their stats. I didn't know the app wasn't 'officially' linked to webdip though, so can understand that you don't feel like stepping in. you were talking about integrating with face book for the next build-would that then be a separate app?

Question regarding a move.

If I have an army in Spain, and, say, Italy has a fleet in Gulf of Lyons and another in MAO, could he support one with the other and take Spain?
