Turkey, Germany and Austria have obviously lost and are willing to surrender so as to free everyone from aving to make further moves.

The English, French and Russians are willing to forgo the pleasure of wiping us off the map and will take the early win.

I am not sure how this is done, but we would be greatful if you could arrange this.

Thanks...

I think my title just about says it all, except that the gid=2889

Hello,

Currently in the private game The Big Show, there haven't been any retreats possible in the last couple turns - people have been forced to disband. At first I thought it was because there had been standoffs in the possible territories to retreat to during the preceding turns, but now I have this situation: My italian fleet was kicked out of bulgaria last turn, and should be able to go to either greece or the aegean sea, neither of which were contested. Is there something I'm not getting?

does the game choose for you randomly, do you go into CD?

Please set the draw for this game.

Only two players left - my most noble opponent will confirm soon.

Sorry to bother you, but we have requested a draw for the game:

Sephiroth...!!! (Game ID 2497)

and both parties have replied to the original post in this Forum to show agreement. It is possible you haven't seen it because I did not put your name in the title. I apologise.

There is a thread for this game which contains the agreements.

Thanks for your atention.

That is, How many games usually do you play simultaneously at phpdiplomacy?

There has been a sudden rash of draws.
I propose, that to rid Kestas of the hassle of manually having to draw each game, instead to award every single person who is still present during the draw points equivalent to half their initial bet.

It starts in an hour and a half and the ante is, of course, 33.

The name is No Press 5

and the password is a four-lettered word... ;)

(I will post it in three hours time to give folks more chance to catch up with this. If you catch me online somewhere, I can give it earlier.)

The first I have tried, and I started with a wrong order... Really a bit annoyed with myself about it. However, the game itself was a refreshing change and I would very much like to start/play another one.

Anyone up for a game?

A game called No Eye Deer is welcome to people who want to join a relaxing game with a small bet - 5 points. The password is noidea (kinda related to the name of the game). 2 spaces left and the game will start in 10 hours if nobody else is joining. So be quick!

Three players left on the map. If one is in CD, can the other two call a draw and split the points?

just started a game called "game name VI" just a small 5-pointer for people who are sort of waiting to play their high-roller games.

Please remove the game 52-pointer and return the points...I didn't want to open it,

I found that a 3 man band appearing in another game reappeared....and apparently, they are close friends that makes moves a one or even a meta gamer.......in the game, france had deliberately left portugal untaken, and if u check the logs, there is no conflict.....

I have played these guys (yeunghauyip, wing09, roger1994...) before and the same happened, they play with a game-long alliance, and even when empty scs are around, they never invade into each other's country

even worse, yeunghauyip claimed to me in the opening of the other game that they "know" each other well and he even has the password for wing09's account........

plz, either ban them, or would they come up and deny the charges.....
admins plz keep an eye on them.....

rait, wonderlama . it seems we are deadlocked at 17 vs 17. what do you think?

Another example of why I don't like it when people stop playing to win (the last few years at least):

Yet another of the mythical Pointer series.
Come join, no Smarties allowed!

anyone interested in a team game?
i notice the rules have alternative ways to play for less players(or in this case fixed teams)
4 teams
1.eng
2. austria/france
3.germany/turkey
4.italy/russia

OR

3 teams-
1.eng/ger/aust
2.russia/italy
3. france/turkey

3 or 4 which is better?
honour rules- no backstabing your ally. goes on till one teams wipes the other two out. then can end in a draw.
would this work? anyone want to give it a try?

Hello, Kestas. Great piece of work.

One question. I had the following move reported in game THIRTY TWO:

"Spring 1903, Diplomacy: Your army at Kiel attempted to move into Ruhr but there was a stalemate."

Problem is that there was no-one who could move into Ruhr to create a stale mate. Any idea how this happened?

Thanks in advance.

for 101 pts. Plz join

When russia places a unit in St petersburg, does it have to decide which coast to build on? Or is the decision of which coast its on made when Russia sends it one way or the other?
Say it moves into barrents sea, can it then move back thru the russian mainland into GoB?

How can you tell which coast its on if there is a difference?

How many active forum members are there?
Please don't double post as that would wreck the whole thing.
Just post below, and we'll see how many of us there are who frequently visit the forum. Feel free to leave a message etc though!

Game is called TWENTY TWO.

The other two players should post their compliance with this request.

Thank you.

I thought that the pot was divided evenly between surviving players (ignoring decimals)...

I though seem to have been awarded just about the full pot for the game Crazy9s... Very generous.

I am concerned on two counts:

a) I didn't earn all those points,
b) have my fellow players lost out?

Let's see how many of the qualified players are Ready to start.

Are you ready?

open to all who dare

teams are england france germany against russia turkey and austria with italy free to choose its own team. Password is alliance and bet is 5
