Is there ever a strategic reason to postpone a build? Instinctively, I say nay, but this game is so well conceived and elegantly thought out, there must be a reason that it's an option. Any of you seasoned generals have any notions?
It is proper etiquette to accept a draw if you are going to win?
For the sake of argument, lets say in a no-messaging game that all the other players have moved to draw and moved to traditional stalemate positions, but you still have a strong position to win with 10 scs and two weak neighbors.
The Complete Guide to 1v1 Battles: Part II. Germany v Italy.
The Germany v Italy Map has not been scientifically assessed, thus I am looking for play-testers. In particular, RoxArt and President Eden. I shall present my hypothesis.
My noble diplomacy players, I would just like to apologize for my failure my recent 4 games, my Internet decided to die, and so i was forced to CD from all of my games. I will most likely be leaving for the summer, so better sooner then later. I wish i could have finished off my games, but seeing how I only managed to get on at the library, I will not be able to finish them. Espcially the WWI and II games that may be totally messed up now. Anywho, I will see you all in the fall
I am currently in a game FOW with no ingame messaging at all. One country was defeated very early on, Austria. I can't understand how Italy is doing so well without any messaging of any type! Are there any mods who can take a look please? http://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=2062
Ok, one more try for a PBEM I'll be the GM http://forum.webdiplomacy.net/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=672&p=3782#p3782 5 Day Spring/Fall Movement Phases 3 Day Retreat/Winter Phases Unless all orders are mailed if so the game advances
I followed the link on the help page but just got an email saying "we're mods for Web Diplomacy, not VDiplomacy, sorry". So how do I report a suspected multiaccounter?
hey guys, im going to be on a trip starting tomorrow and will be back around the 13 or 14 and I need a sitter in 2 games, WWIV:http://vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=648 WW 2 Team Game:http://vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=2119 PM me for details and password information, in the Team game just go with what the allies want and in the WWIV game you would only have to maybe enter orders for one turn
I think he's a decent Democrat but still has a great deal to answer for and etc. The Hero worship that immediately sprung up around him initially is something I always resented him for [whether or not it is fairly is debatable, granted] but I have to say the mainstream opposition to him is a great deal scarier.
Over all, I'd call him the lesser of two evils but say he still has a great deal he needs to do before I could really get behind him.
@faux, and in the previous election that is what I thought, and I did support Obama. However after alot of what he is done, I am now saying pure no. Tim Pawlenty for president!
I would respond by saying that he's done already and it doesn't matter. Plus we have a few more people than Australia. In terms of people represented, asking about the childless, Welsh atheist would be roughly comparable to us asking your opinion of Rick Perry or Jerry Brown and given heredity, length of service and his 2 runs for President, "Governor Moonbeam" would still have to rank a fair distance ahead.
yeah well, you have a few more people than Burma, big deal - you are also the only country who still insists on using empirical measurements in the WHOLE WORLD apart from Burma, so whoop-de-do.
I'd say he didn't really PM everyone demanding a response here, it was more for interested parties who did have an opinion. I'm certain if you put up a thread asking for opinions on Rudd those with opinions would give them. You could do the same thing for any nations Prime Minister/President/Whatever without really being Ethnocentric.
Now of course Rudd is not the sitting PM, so the correlation is not quite the same. Sadly, Obama remains in power. However, I am having doubts about the viability of his second term.
Kaner, what ARE your thoughts on Rudd? As an American, I rather like the cat. But I know little to nothing about his domestic policies. Wikipedia here I come...
@gopher are you talking about the German president or chancellor? The chancellor holds all real power (well as much as you can as a minority govt in the reichstag) but isn't the german president more a figurehead much akin to Australia's Governor General?
I will be gone on vacation starting Thursday, 6/9 for 10 days. I won't have access to the Internet so I need a sub. I have three games, 2 are 1 move per day and the other is 1 move every 36 hours. PM me if you are interested. I also have one game on webdiplomacy.net. Thanks in advance.
As everyone knows, team games are rather popular, however something I have yet to see is a team gunboat, were your not allowed to stab people, but your not allowed to talk to them either. Lets make it more epic with a team chaos gunboat. Thoughts? [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/dsXvt.gif[/IMG]
One action card is dealt to players at the start. They may use it at the beginning of any turn, and they will pm the Game Master who will coordinate the gameplay to conform to the rules set out on the cards.
I've started my first game of webDiplomacy, and in the chat window, all the text is in black, where usually the text is coloured in relation to the country. Is there a settings tweak that I need to make?
I'm trying to start a game with a 20 point buy in, and I'm sure I'm entering it properly, but when I go to the game page, it says the buy in is 1. I've nuked and recreated 3 times now and it's the same every time. I guess I don't really mind playing for one point, but I think I might have trouble attracting an opponent for one point...
I've never heard or seen an African variant. But there seems to be one for every other land area (Americas north, central, south, Asia, Australia, and of course the original Europe). Is this because the geography isn't so interesting (having a simple coastline, tho you could have impassable areas like the Sahara Desert), or just no one cares? :\
