My Variant(s)
Hello all. I was just informed that there has been an adaptation of my Known World 901 variant here, and it is fairly popular. Thank you for the work involved, and I hope you enjoy the variant. I am very flattered.

P.S. Feel free to adapt and play more of my variants. I especially recommend Maharajah's Diplomacy Some scale as Standard, the rules are not too far off, and it has proven to be very balanced and the feedback has been good as well.

Automatically Proceeding if only one option
This would be an excellent enhancement, particularly late in the game when someone is on the verge of defeat and loses interest.

Getting my own phpDiplo variant set to "practice" tactics.
Hey guys, I'm wanting to get my own set of variants, such as the traditional variant and the build anywhere variant, to practice tactics and look at the game from all points of view. Its something to do on my own time, that sort of thing. But i'm only literate when it comes to the computer to a certain point. If anyone could show me the guiding light, I'd appreciate it.

Three is my limit. If I'm just about to be eliminated in a game, I can handle four. But I really enjoy the diplomacy aspect of the game and only play variants with seven or more players, so anymore than three active games makes it too difficult to keep up with all the conversations I like to have. And even with three active games, I like to have one with week-long deadlines and one with 2-3 day-long deadlines, to space moves out and give diplomacy its full due.

8 between here and webdip. I got a bit out-of-hand joining games lately. I try to stay at about 4 (though exceptions made for gunboat and live games).
SacredDigits (978 D)
03 Feb 12 UTC
15 all told, but 3 aren't yet started, one is about to end, I've been eliminated in one, and I'm at one center in one. So more like 9. But two are Haven and two are the new variant, so I get a little confused by which power I am in each.

Leif_Syverson (1626 D Mod)
03 Feb 12 UTC
well, considering I'm working on a master's thesis in electrical engineering AND working a half-time job in industry that's more like 30hrs a week, I'd say I've got a pretty full load of diplomacy going on top of all that, especially since, like G-Man, I'm big on the diplomacy aspect of the game and like to talk to as many people as possible as often as possible.

Glad to hear though that I'm not the only poor sod who's addicted to this game.
Well this game is useful. I got an academic team question right because of it and we won the match!

13 games on here, just eliminated in 3 of them. Waiting on the Whittle Tourney to start. On webdip have 5 running and a paused that finally just got canceled by the mods. I would have to say I am addicted too.

@Leif: I went onto BF.com, didn't like the premiem, extreme account options. It was a half decent game but they lacked good maps (unless you paid).

@Ben: Globe, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, the economist and The Week are the news papers I read.

I read the globe for local news (never go to their site, just read it in the morning at breakfast)

NYT cause I found their US election coverage to be far superior to the competitors (and cause unlike Globe, Economist and others their website is free to use for infinite articles), come November NYT will probably be forgotten.

The week is for international news, however recently our subscription expired and we haven't bothered renewing (I like it cause generally each article is split into 4 sections: Intro and details, a quote from a liberal paper, a quote from a conservative paper, and a conclusion. I like it cause they report unbais news by showing what both the left and the right gather from various situations.)

The Economist for pretty much everything, I read it almost cover to cover every week and read it through class when what were doing is boring.

WSJ when I don't think the economist went into enough detail on the subject.
BenGuin (1529 D)

lol... I mostly read: The Globe and Mail, The Economist, The New Yorker, The Guardian, NY Times, the Toronto Star.... oh don't forget Reuters... I read the Globe and Mail, the Economist, at lunch during school... both are GREAT debate materials (particular the debate on the Economist site)... The Toronto Star is for breakfast, school bus, and before School... their articles are on interesting topics... NY Times and Reuters in my opinion is great for US coverage... they are mostly unbiased... New Yorker have A LOT OF ARTICLES OF DEPTH... great magazine... the Guardian is also good debate material... kind of interesting that I read so much news considering that I'm in the beginning of my High School career... :P
