World War Two Diplomacy (Global Variant)
I was thinking about a World War Two Diplomacy Variant expanded to encompass the entire globe. Any ideas?

TIME FOR REVOLUTION!
I heard from a very reliable source that the government gives black women $400 a week? That is, and I quote, "$28,000 a year, better than minimum wage, just for being women and black."
Now, I know krellin is on my side for the revolution to take down all women, but when injustice like this is being taunted in our faces, I feel obliged to take action! WHO'S WITH ME?

Unread Mail in Gunboat games
I've had it happen before (in completed games) that the unread mail icon has shown up in one of my gunboat games. What's that all about? Moderator messages? Naturally, one can't read these in a gunboat game, since there's no global tab.

3 Newbie Questions
Thanks in advance for any responses to the 3 below questions.

1) Can you cut the support of one of your own armies (accidentally or intentionally, I suppose)?
2) If you mute a player in a full-press game, will that player be muted to start a new Anonymous game, or in other currently running Anon games? (Seems like that could reveal the identity of the muted player in an anonymouse game, if you only had one player [or very few] muted).
3) I found the Ghost Ratings at http://tournaments.webdiplomacy.net/theghost-ratingslist .
I've heard mention of GR's broken down by GunBoat and Full Press. Where can those be found?

1. No. Please don't listen to SYnapse.
2. No.
3. On the main GR page, click "categories" at the top of the column. There you'll find GR broken down by gunboat, full press, and live games.

1) Absolutely not. The only thing you can do is support another country's unit into that space.
2) No. In-game Mutes are all discrete.

pretty sure #1 is yes, happened to me a little while ago and I've been considering it in my play ever sense.
@abge, On 1), I don`t think you can even support another country's unit into a space occupied by one of your units.

eg, http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=104878#gamePanel spring 1909 France supports GoL to Pied from Tus. France owns Pied and Tus, Italy's fleet is in goal. The move fails even though Pied has no support.

Stackelberg is right. You can't sabotage your own units. Kind of a fail-safe built into the game.

Gen. Lee, do you have the link to that game in question?

Yup, ya'll are right. My B.

Please refer to 6.D.10 and 6.D.12 of the DATC (http://webdiplomacy.net/datc.php) for more info.

No, I don't even recall which power i was playing so it would be difficult to find. But I'm fairly certain it happened b/c i remember thinking wtf i didn't know you could do that and then considering that in different situations later on. I'll try and find it later tonight.
Gen. Lee (7588 D(B))
25 Feb 13 UTC
well i guess 6.D.20 indicates I am wrong. There must have been something else going on in the orders log. But i am curious to find the specific move that made me think this.

First place units, than give orders
I was thinking, whether is it possible to make pregame for build. Players would choose what type of unit they want to build: land or fleet. For instance. Austria would be able to place 3 land units. It might be interesting, because placing the units may indicate the intentions of players...or not. Of not as an constans variant than an option in advanced settings.

Testing semck's theory
Hey THUCY you know blacks were NEVER enslaved? They're not even from Africa, you dolt. Why else would we call them African AMERICANS? And don't even get me started on black WOMEN, easily the most privilege citizens in the country. You know the government gives them $400 a WEEK? That's $28,000 a YEAR, better than minimum wage, just for being WOMEN and BLACK. You pitiable FOOL. I feel bad for you, son, believing these diluted liberal LIES.

Next pope's name
After the next pope is elected, he will choose a papal name. Of the names used in the last two hundred years, these are most likely to be used by Benedict XVI's successor.

World Map
What's your favorite country to play as? Alliances to form?
Of course, the map is quite unbalanced, but I just wanted to see. World strategies are much more complicated than Europe.

I'll start: favorites are Russia and Argentina. Favorite alliance, Russia-Near East or Libya- Near East

SAVE, NOW CLICK ON NOT READY
Does anyone else feel the frustration I have when players do not press the NOT READY icon after pressing SAVE, I can understand if they need the full time if they are busy with other things, THAT'S LIFE, but when everyone else's orders are in showing a GREEN TICK, why needlessly hold the war up and its worse on builds and retreats, for those out there that do this, YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, time to WAKE UP!

diplomacy for idiots
The purpose of this game is to open in the most ridiculous way possible. In the Spring of 1901, you must have a crazy and idiotic move. Anyone who opens with a "real" opening will be ganged up on and beaten, followed by a six way draw. P.M. me if interested, and I will give you the password and Game I.D.

"Small" map ideas
Has anyone made a successful map of a very small area, for example a city or a building? Was wondering if a variant would be possible of New York City for example, or even smaller like a hospital complex (hostage scenario type thing where the hostages are supply centres.)

That was the first game of the series... at the end of the game, we discussed creating a series of these games. Who from the first game is interested, and (maybe) who else would like to join in a potential second game?
