"by convoy", "by land"?
Is there a reason moving an army to an adjacent coastal territory I get the option to go "by convoy" or "by land"? Is there a good reason one would convoy a unit between adjacent territories?

AFK Player
We just started a game (League of Nations) and it is Autumn 1901. While I realize that Austria might have accidentally missed his turn, he has also done no correspondence at all, leaving me to wonder if he's really going to play at all.

Is there some way to boot him so that we don't have to wait for him to go into civil disorder?

If there isn't (I don't think there is), will he go into civil disorder if we pause the game to wait for a new player? Or is civil disorder dependent on turns missed rather than time missed while the game is paused...

CD is dependent on turns missed as far as I know.

The only way to "boot" a player that I know of would be through a mod (if they even have that power) or kestas. So most likely, you'll just have to let him go CD, as bad as that sounds.
Gobbledydook (1389 D(B))
30 Dec 08 UTC
Mods don't have the power to boot. Only Kestas does, and it's a hassle because he has to go and change the database.

It is quite common for him to change something he didn't intend to and crash the site, so you better be careful.
dangermouse (5551 D)

We (mods) do not yet have the power to boot players from individual games. What I can (and did) do is to ban and then unban Hoolie. This sets him to CD in all games. Since he's only playing in the one it was possible.
greydawn (115 D)

Thank you very much for your help. I'd much rather Kestas no have to go through the hassle (and the risk) of adjusting the databases.

I would love to see a code update that would
1. Halt adjudication of any game with a Spring 01 No Moves Received (NMR)
2. automatically remove the player missing the orders
3. automatically make a posting to the forum that game xyz needs a replacement player for player ABC.

Centurian (3257 D)
31 Dec 08 UTC
I agree that Edi's update sounds nice. For practicality issues, I think alot of players have enough difficulty starting up games already, obviously this would be an issue. Perhaps a middle ground if there are more than one NMRs?
Gobbledydook (1389 D(B))
31 Dec 08 UTC
Might be a nice idea. Though the buy-in for the Spring 1901 replacement should be cheaper...80%?

Phpdiplomacy game stats - best country to play
I ran a quick script out of curiosity to see which countries win the most on phpdiplomacy. Just got the "finished games" pages and parsed the HTML. Turkey turns out to be the best country! Full stats below the fold.

Another Thread about PPSC vs WTA
The more I play on this site the more I wish I could get more WTA games going. I just really don't feel like PPSC games provide the Dip experience that is intended by the game.

They are still good practice, but WTA games are where its at in my opinion. Sure wish it was easier to get people to join them...
