Special Rules Game: A center is randomly selected (through chance) at the start of the game. Whoever controls it a decade later (Fall 1910) wins. If you solo before then, you win as well. Draws are not allowed. There will always be one winner and 6 losers. Standard Map, 36 hour phases, WTA. 1. steephie22
I know that when you click save instead of ready, you get a gray check. But if time runs out before you click ready, are your saved moves inputed or do you have no moves for that turn?
Colorblindness update and live game display option
Colorblind options are now live. Live game display option is also live. Both settings can be changed under "settings." Much thanks to ATC and the dev team, including thorfi, Kestas, and Oli. ATC will also push out the auto update fix for the colorblind option soon. You might have to manually update your map to see the change at the moment. Please thank them for the work they do and let us know how much you enjoy these updates!
I've been informed that the auto update JS fix has been implemented live just now!
Thanks guys for being patient with us. It has taken us some time to get these updates out, but we have a structure and process in place now and hopefully we will keep updating and improving regularly.
Much thanks again to the dev team as well as the mod team for doing the work behind the scene.
Come on now. We don't refer to any of this as "crazy" any more. It's a genetic condition...where the light-sensing function of the red and green cones is more overlapping than normal.
None of the dev team are actually colourblind, so if you are (or know someone who is), feedback is welcome at [email protected] - especially if there's anything else we can change to make the site better for you.
Although I'm not colourblind myself, I tried it out anyway. I'm a bit surprised the chat text font colours always remain unchanged; ought they not to match the map colours? If I recall correctly, there is a visibility enhancement option on vDip, which changes all texts and posts to black. Did you consider to include that as well?
I'm not colorblind, but I am color-challenged. Some of the colors on the map are difficult to distinguish. And in global messages I'm sometimes at a loss figuring out who a message is from. I'm trying out one of the new options. I have little idea what the labels mean, but one of the options seems to make a big difference. I'll see if it helps.
@ zane: If you click the messages tab at the bottom of the game board where it says "Archive: Orders -Map-Messages" That will give you a display mode where each message is identified by text (ex. "To You From Italy"). It isn't as convenient because all messages are displayed chronologically, but it help avoid confusion.
@Crazy Anglican, all messages are preceded by the country's name under all the colorblind options. So even though the text color does not change, you should be easily able to distinguish who a message is from/to.
Krystle Marie Campbell (29), Lu Lingzi (23), Martin William Richard (8), and Sean A. Collier (27). Not to mention the 264 other injured people. The bomber does not deserve to have his name remembered by society, they do.
To fill out a locked game. Full disclosure several of us have played multiple games together, and some know one another personally, but we all leave that at the door and play to win. gameID=160620 Ppsc, full press, non anon, 1901
An Ancient Mediterranean Game, looking for players.
I would like to start a game in the Ancient Mediterranean. There will be messaging and press, and maybe anonymous players. This game will have normal turn lengths (1 day) and may or may not be password protected. Would anyone be interested in this?
Rule 1: READ THE RULES; It is your responsibility to know and follow all the rules (http://webdiplomacy.net/rules.php) Rule 2: Try the FAQ section (http://webdiplomacy.net/FAQ.php) Ask questions not covered by Rules 1 and 2 and receive wisdom.
You all heard the news before. I asked people not to forget, so I'm reminding people today again. There was a second quake this morning of similar magnitude (7.3), killing many, but more importantly right now, people are forced to live communally outdoors as the monsoon season approaches.
