I'm returning after a little over a month off from games. School has died down a bit as I've just finished midterms, and what better way to spend spring break than getting my Diplomacy kick going again. Starting 2 games, details inside.
So many territories, so many players... it scares me. I've only ever played the 'traditional' diplomacy but this variant looks quite interesting. How does it compare to the classic game? What tactics are used?
If you play an anonymous no messaging game is it OK to liaise and share attacks/supports with your mates? If it is acceptable I won't report it but it does spoil the game. Can one of the 'experts' please clarify this for me please
I think I might have accidentally stumbled upon a degenerate means to circumvent public press. I'm not in a public press game atm so I can't check. Could a player who is in the game please PM me asap?
I'm new to this site, and I truly hate the way the board is set up. It is impossible to distinguish between units, and the arrows are confusing as much as they are beneficial.
Can anyone point me at a successful example game for an austrian turkish alliance? im more curious about game long alliances rather than holding a line to force a draw. can it be done?
Can you believe that 1990 was 22 years ago? Or that even the last decade wasn't the 90's?
Anyways, what songs/artists really capture the feeling of the nineties for you?
For me listening to anything by these artists Smashing Pumpkins, Counting Crows, Oasis, Nirvana, Alanis Morissette, Foo Fighters from their body of work in that decade really takes me back.
'91 "Old Time Religion" '92 "After the Ball" '93 "America the Beautiful" and "How Firm a Foundation" '94 "The Little Lost Child", first ever music video. '95 Sousa's "El Capitan" '96 "Harlem Rag" '97 "Mississippi Rag" and "Louisiana Rag" '98 "Romany Life" '99 "Maple Leaf Rag" of course, and "My Wild Irish Rose."
i agree with yebellz's bands. that's the type of music i think of when i think of the 90's. not a huge fan of morissette or the foo fighters though. and greenday used to be popular then too... and offspring. but that was before they came back.
I remember when Nevermind dropped, that was enormous. And the Red Hot Chili Peppers' breakthrough album, BloodSugarSexMagic. Pretty sure my favorite REM album (Automatic For The People) and favorite U2 album (Achtung Baby) were also dropped in that era.
Favorite 90s artists: Pavement, Teenage Fanclub, Yo La Tengo, Stereolab, Grandaddy, Sparklehorse, Air, Beck, Nirvana, Radiohead, Weezer, Fountains of Wayne, Wilco I loved the 90s
I'm currently working on an English translation of an upcoming online role-playing collectible card game taking place in a complex sci-fi setting (I'll make some promo when its launch will be imminent, I believe some of you will appreciate the setting or artworks even if CCGs are not your cup of tea).
after a crushing defeat in my last live game, and my wasting-time-online phase coming to an end, should i completely leave this website? please voice opinions below. and yes, i know this will be slightly skewed since most of the people who would vote yes have already muted me so won't see this.
oh... but i guess i might make my rankings first... uh. i wanted to do that... well we'll see.
Should there be ways to unpause/pause a game, if atleast a majority of the players agree to unpause/pause the game? If not, please provide an alternative.
Can everyone who was in http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=82354#gamePanel please post their EOG statements and why they did certain moves. thank you. I'll put mine up eventually
