1,408 balanced reduced latin squares.

Once a half a year or so ago on here, I mentioned this paper http://condor.depaul.edu/mash/Diplomacy.pdf and how I'd really like to get my hand on some of those squares. Well, Tim McMurry sent me 1,408 reduced latin squares to be used in balanced diplomacy tournaments.

The Art of Correspondence in the Game of Diplomacy

Hi folks, I just wanted to alert the webdip community to my new book. I've finally completed a two-year study of what makes for effective negotiations (and what doesn't work so well). http://www.amazon.com/Art-Correspondence-Game-Diplomacy-ebook/dp/B015XAJFM0/ Thanks, Conor

If you've never heard of the Eagles or Queen, maybe. Rush is good, and yeah Imagine Dragons is one of few bearable contemporaries.

As a classical guy, I'm on a bit of a Wagner phase, with a Tristan and Isolde obsession. Also, I'm wandering into more contemporary minimalist stuff of Einaudi and Part and a little Taverner thrown in

you're my favourite stoner ghug, most of that was great

@ogion recommend some pieces! my friends and I love classical when we're hung over

I was in a 'working class pub' (think Eastenders) the other week with a jukebox. and my friend put some money in and then had no idea what to put on and just walked away, so I went up to it and put Vivaldi's Autumn season on. It took the regular about 2-3 minutes to realise, and the reactions were priceless.

Top 100 GR game. Full press. Anon. WTA.

Hi all, I want to try and play one more game before I take a break again. Some games I played the past months have been great, others a bit disappointing. Overall I still think GR is the best indicator for a noNMR high level of press game, as it was three years ago before I returned to the site. So for my last game before my break I'd like to try and set up a top 100 GR game. Is there anyone out there willing to spar?

Off to work to play Diplomacy

Today I'm in the fantastic position that I'm off to work to play Diplomacy. Or at least, GM it. A local bank is setting up a game for 300 (!) employees, in a trajectory to kickstart discussions about trust and audacity in company culture. I'm really interested: have others ever used Diplomacy in a professional setting? Maybe we're on to something.

So I have permission to use a 3D printer for my boardgame prototype..

Now I need 3

models to print and use as units. I need tanks, infantry, helicopters, planes, artillery, battleships, factories, territory markers (flags or more creative) and possibly the resources oil, iron, gold and aluminium depicted somehow..
Could I find files for those somewhere? Thoughts?

How does PPSC work?

I thought that in PPSC you always, no matter what, hey points according to the number of SCs you control. But someone in game told me that if you draw, all the points are split among survivors.

Can someone clarify for me?
