CGS games?
So, I was looking for a game to join, when I spotted this. Spot them every now and again. What are they? And what does CGS stand for?

Featured game?
What is a featured game? One of the games I am playing got a star next to it, and it says that is is a featured game, with one of the highest stakes. Is this something automatic?

Go for the win or draw with good players
In the eyes of a high point player, is it better to try to go for the win or take a three-way draw (in world map). What is more "respected"? What creates more "trust" for future games? (I know its a form of meta-gaming, but I think that for long-playing players-it appears important). Thanks for your opinions.

Since the official topic is probably going to get flooded with these soon, it made sense to follow another user's suggestion and make a separate topic. I'm working on the others now, but here's mine for Game 1 first.

Retreating in an endgame situation
I just finished an anonymous gunboat game and I do not believe that any of the dislodged units in the last season were permitted to retreat. Surely under certain circumstances that retreat could be the difference between a solo and a draw, no? Does webDip process the win before or after autumn retreats, and/or does it have programming to know whether the retreat can affect the outcome of the game?

The Wonderful 100: History's Greatest Persons
There are so many people on this site with so many interests, and so many important people throughout history at that, I thought it might be interesting to see who and what we value throughout mankind. "Great" can be any combination of importance, influence, and personal feeling for the person, can even be "evil" people--everyone nominates 5, when we reach 100 or so, we'll vote and see...WHO are Wonderful 100, the Greatest Figures in Human History (and who'll be"#1!") ;)

Banned players who return get to have a clean slate on GR and points. This is an unfair advantage...

If figgles finds AgentK not guilty then that's good enough for me. Congrats on your aquittal AgentK - I do apologise if my post was interpretted as an attack on your character.

Well done figgles for holding an impartial investigation. All hail figgles the new Max Carrados of detective work.

There CAN be a difference between being found not guilty and being innocent, which is intended to be a comment about the banning process in general and not about this specific situation.

dipping my toe where it probably does not belong...

@ figles - could you please expound on that particular anonymous gunboat game resulting in a 17/17 draw that Maniac unearthed? without an explanation of that, I think my trust in the mod's judgments may suffer =( as in, I will have less trust in how these decisions are reached.

@ Dragunar - you are such a tool. just an observation.

@Babak - Why am *I* a tool? Because I chimed in? Fuck off, needle dick.

@Babak - I want to apologize right now for the rudeness. I am interested why you called me a tool. But I should not have responded like that. Sorry.

He was investigated by someone else in April, and found to be acceptable.

I've been looking at actions since then, where he doesn't seem to have cheated.

As stated above I'm still kinda going, so its not over yet, and need to talk to the mod who handled that investigation.
Babak (26982 D(B))

@ figles - thank you for the explanation.

@ MM - far more than either of us would care to admit =P this has been true since the first game we played together ages ago

@ Draugnar - you may not remember our first altercation since you seem to have had a regular diet of altercations with various players - but I certainly remember what an obtuse, self-centered, and righteous ignoramus you were then... and honestly, most of what I've read of you in the intervening year has not changed my mind regarding that first impression you left.

In this particular case, once more you exhibit a self-centered, righteous, and close-minded character that, irrelevant of Agent K's guilt or innocence, remind me of pathetic high-schoolers who pride themselves in insulting others to establish their 'coolness'.

Your initial knee-jerk response to my post is exhibit 31,899 of your nature.

I should actually correct myself. according to Urban Dictionary, you are more of a 'tool bag' than a 'tool'.

congrats on the status upgrade.

Win : Draw ratios
My position is that it is better to risk a place in a draw for a reasonable chance at a win.

So a better win:draw ratio is more important than a your (win+draw) : (survived+eliminated) ratio...

Map didn't update.
Don't know if this is a problem with anyone else, but I'm playing in gameID=39406, and the map didn't update with the results of the 1902 build phase. When I click on the icon to get the large map, I see the disbanded and newly built units. More concerning, though, is that I can't issue orders for my new unit...not only does the map not show it, the orders don't load for it either.

Any ideas as to why this is happening? Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
