I really wish people would message me privately before posting things that they have no idea about. I've checked with most of the aggrieved sources, and "several" is probably a stretch. For someone who supposedly has no patience for drama, you're sure inviting it. There are no sitewide bans being th...

Great! I have accepted the Italian team.

We want Computer_Genius on our team, and not as a substitute. Reliability Rating is a crap stat, certainly not worth using to block entry into a team-based tournament. It’s disadvantageous to new players and live players and players that experiment amongst friends and with new maps. I have over 4x ...

I suppose I should add the caveat that if your poor RR comes from NMR'ing in tournaments, I will be less lenient. Especially if it was *my* tournament.

What's the RR requirement to join? I mean I have a base RR of 99 and because I missed like 5 or 6 turns a few months ago its 69% Nice. This is also a concern for us as one of our players is in the same boat. We can of course artificially boost the RR before the WC matches start, but need to know th...

Team Toronto is as follows: Yonni - Full Press Computer_Genius - Full Press Lando Calrissian - Gunboat Geofram - Public Press We've yet to name a substitute nor have we determined how we'll be splitting up the six FvA games. We plan on hosting a little round robin warmup before making that decision...

How could I forget. Let me get on that.

Yeah teams will be announced here. I'll only accept signups from announced teams.

I'll consider delaying the start depending upon signups.

As for renaming the tournament, yeah I might be able to do that. Just figured most of it would be played in 2021.

You're good Hithlum. Reqs on this tournament are more lenient since it's expected that 1)teammates will ensure you don't miss turns and 2) Weaker players will be bouyed by the collective brain trust of the team. I mean, if someone's RR is egregiously low or doesn't know how to play the game I may ra...

There can be multiple teams from the same region, just as a fyi. Last time around we had two Great Lakes teams

And what are the key dates for this?

Looking for a December 1st start date.

Why you gotta go and ruin Christmas for all of us?

The goldfinger tournament rule of pausing from Christmas through New Years will be in effect.

I ain't trying to ruin my holiday either.

I am pretty sure people are already DM'ing others to form teams. Some post in the thread to recruit. But last time I ran this, probably 2/3rds of teams were formed outside the thread.

Detailed info can be found https://sites.google.com/view/webdipinfo/classic-map-tournaments/diplomacy-world-cup Or I will also copy below. Sign-ups will close at the end of November. 1v1 games will be starting in 1 week intervals. World Cup Format The World Cup is a team-based tournament. Teams cons...

Hello all, I would like to announce that signups are now open for the 2021 WebDip World Cup. This is a novel team-based tournament unique to WebDip, where you gather 4-5 players from your area to battle it out for bragging rights of whose city/state/region has the best Diplomacy players around! Team...

Ahhh, *this* is the new thread I thought I was commenting on.

Blargh. I saw the recent posts and assumed it was a whole new thread

There are indeed none joinable at the moment, though Goldfinger might welcome more substitutes for the Masters.

Who's gonna tell him that it wrapped two months ago?

Ok. So 3P is just gambling on scum not getting a gun AND not having higher priority target. Town get 2 townclears. One with no need of doctor or bomb. In a massclaim there are easy higher priority targets. Cop/Jailor/Doc/Inventor should be 1/2/3/4 (in that order). And I think the cleared townies ar...
