Escalation Variant
I was wondering if anybody knows if it is possible to play the escalation variant on here? Ideally, Escalation can be played with less than seven players, or possibly more than seven players. But I am not seeing any sort of option to play Escalation, does anybody know if that is possible?

Standardized Diplo-Language?
I was wondering if anyone has ever come up with a standard language of diplomacy commands so as to maintain anonymity while playing an anon game among friends. If you're playing with friends, you can tell who is who by how they write. Thanks for any comments or ideas.

Random Idea for variant
I guess this would be tricky to code, but how is this idea for vDip?

During a build phase and where a power has available build capacity, any unit sitting in a supply centre may be boosted by a power of 1, ie, doubled. This unit will require twice the normal ongoing supply maintenance.

VP
Kinda curious on VP... I understand that the gains are lesser as one gets higher, but how does one player (for example) get to over 2000 with under 12 total games and only 1 win? I know its not that consequential in the grand scheme of things. but as I get to a moderately respectable total, the vp gains from a win or draw seem trivial and disproportionate to lost vp when losing. How does VP calculations actually work?

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!! :)

Question on retreats
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.

Are you going to use a random number generator then adjust to make sure two impostors don't easily jump another?

We have to decide which map to do. Modern europe is tried and true but fall of american empire tends to give people more neighbors...

Personally, I’d prefer modern dip, but I’m not opposed to fall of American either.

As far as the identity reveals- I personally think that the imposters should not be revealed when they die, only after all 3 are eliminated. As for game ending, unlike in among us the crew could still technically win in a 3v3, so I think it would be pretty lame to end it there... Idk how you would determine when to call it though...
CYFI (1927 D)

So far here is what i think we are doing:
-Public press
-Unranked
-Identity revealed when one team wins

No sorry Dave I don't really want to play this one. Seems a bit... lopsided. I think it would be fun if I were an impostor, but not the other way around.
