I feel so stupid:
but after like, 2 years here or so, I JUST realized that the notifications about your games(when you have moves or messages) are in the color of your country!!! anybody else not notice that, or am I just that oblivious XD

That I figured out pretty quickly. My stupid moment was when I realized that CDed powers named slant on the game pages.

How long did it take you to realize that the games are arranged by wager size?

I still hadn't realized that one, gopher, but the other ones I was fully aware of.

gopher, do you mean when you have multiple moves or messages, they are arranged like that? I know that on the side they are by least time left.
SacredDigits (978 D)

Yes, that's what he means, and he's correct.

Never noticed either one of the gopher points. I wondered why they didn't stay the same all the time. With no messages and all orders saved but not ready. Are they listed then according to the bet size too? Or are we talking how many points your worth at that moment?

Original wager size as opposed to pot size.

BTW, for everyone's info, SacredDigits make fun of me quite a bit for taking well over a year to realize about the slanting. Admittedly, that is a little bit easier to connect with its cause than the arrangements up top. I find it interesting that I noticed the top order so quickly and was oblivious to the slanting's cause.

There are some smart fairly academic people on here. Does anyone study learning, as opposed to pure education? I've been working on something off and on for a few years where I define optimal strategies given some parameters within a game experiment. Three strategies defined by three scenarios and they do get harder to discern as you look at situation one, then two and then three. Even after many many iterations people still don't move to the optimal strategy in scenario three. In situation one, people almost always follow the optimal strategy, and they usually do in situation two. The only explanation is that people just do not learn even as they move towards perfect information. They keep picking 1% chance of success strategies over 20% chance of success strategies.

Up till year 961 Denmark and Rome had equal amount of centers and points. But in the year after 962 Denmar got more centers and won the game. The question is how come I got less points than the second player!?

FoW in Attack of the Rats
AotR variant includes the Fog of the War rule.
In Classic-FoW there's a rule: "Territories with a support-center: See their current territory + every territory that share a border with them"
It seems that rat's non-home support-centers don't see their neighbour territories.

Is there any support for the idea that you can retract a message to another player before they have read it?
I have just sent the wrong message to the wrong player. I would like to take it back, as he has not seen it. What do people think?
