Dropping out due to life getting too busy/complicated
Hi all, I am not sure how but I have seen it before. How do I drop out of all my games if I just do not have the time for it anymore? I would hate to ruin the ongoing games my fellow players are in and would like to have a way to drop out without a penalty. Would be greatly appreciated!! :)
I can't find the variant development post in forum. Iv looked at every page twice. Idk what my deal is. Can someone past the URL to it or tell me what page its on? Please and thank you

On a side note. A search bar to search threw forum would be nice to have
Hello all, I haven't found a satisfying answer on it on this page. So to clarify it ones and for all: If two units bounce into one territory, does this prevent a third unit to retreat into it in the upcoming retreat phase?
Thanks for the answer! I hope this thread helps others too.
is it just me or does t.he interactive map only work on mobile devices now? I've tried to on my desktop, laptop and phone and it only seems to work on the phone. Thanks
April 2021 Deadline News is out, from the Diplomacy Broadcast Network
This month's edition includes interviews, a panel discussion on ethics in Diplomacy, and headlines from around the world of Diplomacy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yv6eYt-bMhI
Is the ModForum still being used? I'm in no hurry, but I posted this over two weeks ago:
Subject: Can't create new game with custom phase length
I'm trying to create a game with 42-hour phases, but keep getting this error: "The phase value is too large or small; it must be between 5 minutes and 10 days." I was able to do this a few years ago without any problem: gameID=32997
Anyone else having trouble with the interactive map?
When I click on a unit of mine, no buttons show up. I haven't been doing any messing around in the settings for a long time, and my orders are not readied. Anyone else? Help?
Après le piratage de 18centres et le bug définitif de DOL, les joueurs français de diplomacy sont vraiment à la rue ! Je crée donc un post sur ce site pour se retrouver entre francophones....
In several Diplomacy game variants we have the Nuclear strike rule which allows any player to destroy any (or only foe's - I don't remember exactly) unit once in a game. See below...
We have had to Extend a game because kaner never showed up after joining. Brisbanites might want to check to see whether he may be trapped under a refrigerator as a result of a cookie jar related accident. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQe0OWZvwWo
My 8-year-old son knows that I play Diplomacy and sometimes even watches the situation progress in my games, but only today I registered him and explaine the rules of the game. He plays chess well, so I think there will be no problems with that.
Maybe it's worth to develop Supply Centers countries' amount in aftergame charts via Highcharts: https://www.highcharts.com/demo More info see below...
If a person drops out you automatically get those points. Already asked. Makes sense that you shouldn't be penalized and possibly not make the finals because of someone else's lack of commitment.
I don't really feel like I understand the tiebreaker procedure, but if I got it right, and if badivan1 wins his last game, then me and Coffee should be tied for top seed, and Maucat and bsiper should be tied for bottom seed? I guess that would resolve the issue, because it should be out of the question that I play bsiper again?
Also, how does a concession impact my score. I know it gives a -1 to them but it also robs be of points too or your breaking ones because you don't even get the full 17 let alone if you ended with more.
Mittag is correct. Subtract one point from the loser.
Umble will get the full 17 SCs for the game badivan conceded. We won’t punish Umble for winning.
Ranks 1-4 are the group winners sorted by points. Ranks 5-8 are the group runners-up sorted by points.
Here’s what would help. Post the results of each of your six games with the real SC counts, the scenario that ended the game (conceded, forfeited, didn’t show, etc.), and when the game ended.

I believe it's coming up on a year since the last new variant came out. The Diplomacy world is thirsty for more :). At least, the Diplomacy Briefing would like to feature some.
