Checking moves
Is there a way to check what moves you entered to compare them with what actually happens?

I ask as I'm convinced the actual moves in my last campaign were not those that I entered! Is there any way to check?

It's probably just incompetence on my part. . .but it would be handy tool anyway.

self-dislodging
I was reading somewhere where you can self-dislodge in this game.
I'm making
1) a move from A into B.
2) supporting another unit from C into A.

What happens if the first move doesn't work.
In regular Diplomacy you can't self dislodge but I wondering what would happen here...
does the original unit in A get to retreat or is it destroyed or does the supported move fail?

Asian Games
I'd like to start a game in the next week or so for those in the Asia Pacific timezones - can you let me know who would be interested. I think it should make for a better game, as more communication should be possible during the day and we might be able to confirm orders earlier etc. Let me know who might be interested....

In the beginning...
I always love the first two years of Dip. Such an intoxicating mix of anxiety and paranoia with a hint of confusion. The first moves are like riding a roller coaster. You are happy and scared all at the same time. It's just a great time to be alive.

Just a random thought I had while communicating with another player. Thought it was nice and I should share.

Is this a bug?
Unit A gives support unit B to move to C
Unit C attacks A

Does C cut support? I think no.....

asking for draw
Dear admin,

in the game Magical Mystery Tour gryncat and I have decided on a draw. We are in the Autumn phase and at the end will have 17 units each. If the points could be split up that would be awesome.

I think I found a cheater
I have been playing a game for almost three weeks now and over the course of the game three players have been beaten down to one or two units and then mostly ignored. Each one of them stoped submitting moves, probably out of spite to slow us down. However, a new profile was made earlier today and for for no reason, joined as one of these hopeless nations in civil disorder. This was the first and only game he joined, despite there being other new games that he could have joined. Due to all this, I think that the only possibility is that another player in my game has created this acount to give himself an edge. I dont know if anyone can remove him from the game, but I would appricate it of you could.

Replacements
A suggestion to the game masters or what ever you call them, I think it would be good if it did not have any cost to join a game when you replace a country in civil disorder. It would cause more people to want to join the game, since they have nothing to lose. Second, since more people would join the replacement games, the balance would not be upset as much, as civil disorder countries always give one country a big advantage. Third, people replacing a country can still win the pot, giving further incentives to join.

Winning Distribution
I was just looking over my finished games and noticed there were a disproportionately large number of games won by Turkey. Now I realize I've only finished 17 games and haven't played any high roller games so my experiences may not be representative, so I thought I'd ask how other people's experiences worked out.

Kestas, would it be possible to add some basic stats like this? I'd figure this to be a pretty low priority, so maybe I'll try to dip my head in the php pool and see if I can hack something together for this...

Here's what I found:

Total games: 17
Turkey wins: 7
Italy wins: 2
England wins: 2
Germany wins: 2
France wins: 1
Austria wins: 1
Russia wins: 1
Draw (3-way): 1

(It may or may not be interesting to note that the draw included Turkey.)

Top 100
Contrary to popular belief, the top 100 only lists 100 names. The problem is that there is apparently a hidden entry in between #62 and #64. If you look closely, you'll find Horizon correctly labeled as #62, but immediately afterwardThe Mahatma is incorrectly labeled as #64. This is not due to a tied score, although the effect looks similar to what happens when two players have identical scores.

The only reason I can think of for such a discrepancy is that there might be a hidden test account that has enough points on it to fall between Horizon and The Mahatma; of course, I didn't bother checking the code, so I very well may be completely wrong.

DRAW
Dear game administrators. There is a game PFan, game ID is 2314, where myself (France) and Russia have talked and decided to call it a draw. We are both currently at 15 units and would like to split the win. Italy is still in the game but will is most likely to be fought over for the win and so can be placed in third for the ranking.

The others should be posting their reply too consent soon. Thank you for splitting up the point.

Adjudicator bug: Norway support for move from moscow to st peters should have worked
05:30 PM Autumn 1905, Diplomacy: Your army at Norway successfully supported the army at Moscow move to St. Petersburg.
05:30 PM Autumn 1905, Diplomacy: Your army at Moscow engaged the army at St. Petersburg head on; both units were equally matched so there was a stand off.
How can this be?

question on disrupting a support move...
quick question-

there are turkish armies in st.p and sweden, and i have a fleet in norway. i moved norway - sweden, and he moved st.p - norway and sweden s st.p - norway. i could've swore that if you attacked a unit that was giving support, the support was cut. any help at all?

p.s. i got this message in the gamemaster...

"Spring 1912, Diplomacy: Your fleet at Norway couldn't prevent army at Sweden from giving a support move, because the support was being given to attack your fleet at Norway, and you had no support." (this makes no sense what so ever)

Formatting looks horrible on Opera
I believe I brought this up some few months ago, but I'm not quite so sure, and it hasn't been fixed yet, so I'll bring it up again.

I can't really explan it in words (Don't have the right vocabulary to say it I guess) so here's a screenshot:
http://img.waffleimages.com/ac313e778561812f74bd3b3ee737b73a0c01f2c1/operacompatibility.JPG

I have found that:
After build phase, you can no longer see the autum move results (the arrows are still there, but there are extra units, or when a unit is disbanded, an arrow points nowhere.
After the fall move, you can only see the position before Spring move and after fall move. You can not know what happened after spring.
(I once was Germany and I let an English fleet into Kiel. I read the maps, and found that the spring picture had the fleet in North Sea. Then the next picture showed it in Kiel. I know what happened now, but it was really confusing...)
This will cause unnecessary confusion. So please, Kestas, show every map...instead of 'Spring 1905' or similar, the words should be: 'Retreats, Spring 1905' or something like that.

Are Sardinia and Crete fiercely nationalist or something?
No matter what territories you control in the vicinity, Crete and Sardinia remain orange, and it's not like every outlying island stays neutral. Look at Iceland. If anyone was going to make a case for a perpetually neutral country, it would be that, but it follows the allegiance of Clyde. So what's up? Could that be changed, for the sake of aesthetics?
