A "Unified" Palestinian Government? I Think Not...

http://news.yahoo.com/hamas-trying-destroy-palestinian-unity-says-abbas-112457367.html I'd say having to scrap ceremonies for (however one might feel about him) a huge leader in Palestinian history due to concerns one faction might attack the other is a sign you DON'T have a unified government. Much as I dislike Abbas and Fatah, they're the better of the two factions fighting for power there...again--Hamas Hamas HAMAS destroys peace, even for fellow Palestinians.

TV Rots the Brain

Anyone want to post the tote board for TV's five-game series? Three games are finished, ending in solos by three different players. A fourth should end this weekend. And the fifth saw it's first elimination in 1915. Good stuff.

Game error?

Hi guys,
In the game http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=147999 I am trying to move a fleet from EC to Brest but there is no Brest in the drop down menu for the move. There is every other option but Brest.
Anyone has any idea what that is about?

Studying abroad (English-speaking country, maybe French)

Since I'm not particularly attached to my country (the Netherlands) or anything and since my English is pretty good by most standards, I can pretty much choose between most Dutch or English-speaking universities.. Which is a daunting task, if taken seriously as I plan to.
Advice? Suggestions? Where do I start?
I can hardly cross the North Sea or Atlantic Ocean on a regular basis while trying to orientate, see what I like and don't like..

NFL Pick 'em Week 10: A Week of Joy, or Sadness?

We missed Week 9, and the sadness of my 49ers (why don't we run Gore at the goal line anymore?!) and the joy of the Browns as they beat up Andy Dalton and the Bengals (remember them? And I'm calling the Browns as a Wild Card playoff team, I BELIEVE) so, Week 10. 49ers/Saints in a survival game, Chiefs/Bills in a potential playoff elimination game, them Cowboys and Jags in London AGAIN, and the Lombardi/Halas Bowl in Packers/Bears on SNF. Week 10, Pick 'em!

New Player

Hi, I'm a new player looking to refresh my knowledge of the game an to play online, im looking for a standard board game with phases of around a day...there seems to be lots that are passworded... where do i start?

You can start your own game or you can find a new game under the "games" tab in the toolbar. You can also take over another player's spot if they leave a game, so if you ever want to practice a certain scenario, you can try that.

Welcome to the site cj! You'll find that this is a highly talented but motley crew of war - mongering rabble-rousers. We are always on the lookout for more.

Tru Ninja (1016 )

To answer your question, games are passworded to allow players to limit who can and cannot play before their start. You'll find that most veterans will post the desire to start a game on the forum, collect names, setup the game and password it to allow only those selected to join.

That's not to day that non-passworded games don't start, they just tend to have a wide variety of players in them based on experience.

Most of us on the site are on the lookout for new challenges, so advertising on the forum is one good way to start. If you are just up for any game, then joining one that's not protected is another way.

Since 20 September, I have only gotten two PM's and sent none. Both were from Al Swearengen.

When I try to reply to the second PM, I find out that Al Swearengen has muted me. Anyone care to comment?

Interest in Public Press Series?

So I've always liked the dynamics of Public Press, and was wondering if it was possible to hold a mini-invitational with some number of games and a scoring system. Would we be able to get the mods to shuffle? Would there be any interest for this sort of thing? Has it happened before?
