New way to send a message to the mods...
I'm experimenting with a better way to contact the mods.

In the top menue there is a new link called "Mods".
Here you can create a thread that only the Mods can see and every Mod will get a notice about the opened issue.
Every user will only be able to see the threads he created and the followup's.
It's a first step to put the work for running this site on more shoulders.

So would that be the place to make cheating accusations? I know how everyone loves their cheating accusations)

Fantastic feature! Thanks Oli!

Yes, mongoose, I think it's also the place to report bugs / errors / mislinked borders / glitches and every problem that involves linking a gameID on the main forum, since talking about ongoing games on the forum is not a good thing.

It is a great idea. The only thing about not making open to everyone is that the Mods will then get 32 of the players from WWIV saying there is a bug/problem. (The other 2 either benfit from the bug or have just NMR!)

The other thing is that if you are accused of something, I think in the interests of justice, you should know of what you are accused.

Is there any problem with making it open?

1. Usually if there is a bug (even in a WWIV game) I get only one report (from the player that is effectedby the bug).
2. Also if you want the Mods to check for a Multi in a game its nothing other people should see (esp. if its not a Multi/Meta after some investigation).
3. I can't keep up with all the PMs I get at the moment so I need to distribute the work on some more people.

@Canaduh: As it is now, or should I say before hand, cheating accusations would either be PMed to a mod, or emailed to the mod email.

Even in those circumstances the player wouldn't be contacted unless the mods found sufficient evidence to suggest that they were indeed cheating.

The only difference between the old method and new one is:
1) all cheating accusations/bug reports are routed to the same place, making it easier for us to use.
2) The mods page is on the site, and mods get a notification whenever someone posts there, making it easier for us to stay on top of them and probably quicker response times.
3) All mods have access to the thread, rather then just one of us in the case of a PM. This will allow for better coordination between us mods.

So overall from the players perspective nothing has changed other then where you need to send the message, but from the mods perspective its a much better method of dealing with all the bug reports and cheating accusations.

"Even in those circumstances the player wouldn't be contacted "
By player I mean suspect, as in the one suspected of cheating.

Fair enough - just making sure this has been thought out. And I fully appreciate all the work that Oli and the Mods do.

Mods help please - Hussite Wars is buggy
I'm just recently playing a Hussite War game ( http://vdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=7262 ) and by now its the second time that a unit could retreat where it should not be able to. In spring 1427 a bavarian unit retreated from Passau to Landshut although they don't have a common border and now, in autuum 1427 a polish unit retreated from Oppeln right through my secured lines to Olmütz in the back of my front. They again have no common border.

Conceding
How does one concede? I see the button next to 'extend', 'draw', 'pause' etc, but clicking it didn't seem to do anything :S
Do I need to wait until that phase has finished, with me having left concede on? Also do I need to/should I ready up?

My apologies
I am truly sorry for abandoning my game last year. Without getting into detail I lost some extremely close to me and I did not handle it well. I look forward to playing with those of you who are still here and with new victims as well.

Fast Paces WW4 map.
I was wondering if I created a WW4 map in the near future that had phases of about 12 to 16 hours would enough people be interested. If I get enough people to agree on it I could even make it less than 12 hour phases. Would anyone be interested?

Possible Summer League
Looking for 1 game to play this summer. I was thinking 4 or 5 day phases. No complaining on not readying orders. As I know I will be very busy myself. Figured if I found enough interest in playing we could pick a variant based on how many are interested. Reply if your interested in playing. Maybe a larger bet to make it worth the wait. However, not looking to put all my eggs in one basket (honor of Easter today). Let me know if your interested and you feel on the entry fee.
