WebDiplomacy policy on restarting a game
I'm sure this type of topic has happened before. One of the players in "Friendly Mediterranean Variation" managed to 'ready' without any units being ordered. All units were held. Major screw up. Hurts the balance of the game. We are still kind of discussing the ramifications and what to do about the moves... but is it possible to either fix the moves for him? or restart the game with everyone playing the same countries?

Most Well Known Current Leaders?
I was wondering what the most well known current leaders of the world are and realized that I actually didn't know very many. So my question for you guys is how many current world leaders do you know and which ones are they? Also, what country are you from?

Worst Mistakes in Diplomacy
I'm curious to know what people consider their worst mistakes in their entire Diplomacy career. Is it failing in a guaranteed solo? Messing up a secure draw? Being eliminated when you shouldn't have?

Diplomacy walk-on music
It's the year 2030. Diplomacy has finally taken its rightful place as one of the "big four" global sports, along with soccer, twenty20 cricket, and ultimate frisbee. The first million dollar tournament opens with hordes of screaming fans straining to glimpse you as you stroll to the game board, your walk-on music reverberating through the arena...

What is that music?

Wanted: Thoughtful Discussion
I'm working on a project where I have to document the process of having a discussion with someone whose views I disagree with. The point of the assignment is to examine my own biases, and find ways to address them. So, since I consider myself liberal in most social and economic policy, I'm looking for an open-minded conservative to debate and discuss politics with. If you're interested, shoot me a PM. Thanks.

How many games do you suppose is a reasonable ban for dping something off site in an exhibition game? Like say I game throw in a live game of epic mafia how many games would you ban for on webdip?

What you are describing is a totalitarian rule system even more draconian than our current one. This isnt about rules anyway. we know what its about. lol. Start a petition see who agrees with you. What do you have to lose?

The level of rules and authority you are encouraging starts a very toxic level of power. first people can be bamned for actions in games on mafiascum epic mafia and discord. next itll be people getting banned for cheating in chess and civ 5. where does this blanket authority level of justice end in your mind?

Does it only go insofar as what brainbomb does or should be ban chaqa from webdip mafia for gamethrowing and rage quitting civ 5 tourney too?
brainbomb (295 D)

I already know you havent thought it through but thats your character flaw. when you think you see things a certain way there is no middle ground or ability to reason with you. Thats part of why I am fine with being banned but just know if I am banned for what happend it will be because 3 of the members of that council are your friend and despite having repeatedly said I am not banned from playing; they would essentially be catering to you because your playing the AtE card way hard right now with 3 ppl firmly in your back pocket. my god you share and co run 2 chats with meme. you co gm'd with HR.

just warning you if im banned alot of ppl will quit playing. the rules are already out of hand enough now you want sanctions for actions in off-site exhibition games to correlate to the forum...

is anyone seeing how fucked that would be lol.

anyway its not my desire to stir this up. You are right I should be punished. how bout I sit out until you say I can play again.

The discord mafia game wasn't a 15 minute live game, I actually had to gm it and you deleted and ruined that.

I think at the point where you target me for my gender, where your attacks on me are largely based on gender, where you deem it okay to harass me online because you're uncomfortable by my gender, that you should be banned from partaking in this community. Anyone who knows the disagreements between us knows that you act this way because you legitimately low key hate women and your dialogue towards me are filled with vehement misogyny. I have engaged with tons of people on this website and you are the most toxic one of them all.

I know I'm obviously a minority here, and that no one else has any reason to care about this. But guys, if you truly want a more inclusive and diverse mafia community you can't let people like brainbomb continue to remain. Maybe you don't care as it doesn't effect you, I don't know. But that's it. Those are my two cents. I will never play in a mafia game again as long as brainbomb is allowed to.

DemonOverlord is absolutely correct. Brainbomb, Some of you comments you make do you no credit. Mafia should be fun for everyone and everyone should feel included. Whatever your and DemonOverlord's past differences you should both move on.

I don't care if you dislike someone (actually I do. It's really fucking annoying and this game is supposed to be fun), but the tampon comment there is unquestionably sexist, and that is unacceptable. Stop.

I have no problem with women. I also have no problem with DemonOverlord. we chatted as friends every day since November. sharing life stories, career plans and yes joking around. After a while I made a few jokes that were a little more offensive but not out of motive. Up until she and I had a rather ugly fight over a game of words with friends she started taking things I said more personally. She didnt like that I had accused her of cheating at words with friends. I apologized for that but after that she soured on me and no matter what I did I was always slipping further away from being her friend. its to the point now where she wants me banned and for all I know had truly convinced herself that this argument is exclusively because shes a woman.

Thats simply not why were arguing. We just stopped being friends because of a series of drunken arguments, mistaken statements finally escalating to me deleting "my own server" mid game of discord 3. I am aware what happened. Im sorry for that.

If you truly want me to leave webdip DemonOverlord I will. Im not trying to make anyone miserable. why dont you just talk to me and we can work out a self imposed ban or I can leave this site of thats really how much I have harmed you.

No need to spin things so innocently if we're getting it all out there, I soured to you after you essentially implied that women who get abortions are sluts and then after I called you misogynist you absolutely lost your shit against me and doubled down on it.

I'm done talking to you, it's the same thing again and again where you calm down, then you get drunk and attack me. Then you pretend to be the fucking victim. I don't want some self righteous ban on yourself, I want the community to not let this kind of bs continue. I don't care if you leave webdip, I just refuse to play this game with you ever again. Go take your inappropriate jokes about how awful women are somewhere else.
brainbomb (295 D)
16 Jun 16 UTC
Okay well I hardly think we need this to become an abortion debate so I'll just let that go. Im not the victim here just trying to reach a comprimise.

As I said I am sorry about the escalation of things. The community would like us both to get along. thats what the community actually wants. Im not even asking for sympathy Im just asking what would appease you to where you could move on and so can I.

Is it not enough that we "were" friends for a long time without incident? do those times count for anything too? I seem to recall we all thought of each other as a second family. Id like to think we can get back to that. whatever doesnt kill you only makes you stronger kinda thing.

I mean hell meme forgave me. ghug forgave me.

Brainbomb shouldn't be banned permanently for interrupting/disrupting an off-site game. If it was a webdip game then it would be a different story. Also, I have seen plenty of players say rude and offensive things. Brainbomb shouldn't be singled out for his statements unless everyone who makes those kind of statements on this website are also punished. Brainbomb already lost a GM/setup and the ability to play in a game. I don't really see cause to punish him more.
