Points in play calculation
All,

I have read the FAQ, but it seems to state that your points in play are the sum of point that you *bet*. Mine seem to exceed that, but may be correct if they are the "current value" rather than the "bet." I could do some tedious counting, but I imagine that most of the people here know, so please pardon the "lazy ask" of someone new to this site, but a long-term Dip player.

Anyone here tried Subterfuge?
Its an iOS/Droid game similar to Neptune's Pride somewhat. Slow Realtime where movement takes hours to days to resolve, no RNG, and based on the Diplomacy tradition of deception and alliances. The key difference to Pride is a toroidal map and a different win condition. Anyone else given it a go?

Simple rule question I'm unsure of.
Country 1: A sup B move C; B move C;
Country 2: C sup D move A; D move A;
My thinking is everyone bounces because both supports are broken. Is that right?

When Does A Draw Occur?
When does a draw occur? As soon as all players vote for draw...or when all players have voted for draw and the next turn is adjudicated? I ask because I am in a game where the draw votes are hidden.

spectating games
Is there a way to see the global chat in a game your not in? it wouldn't make it so that you could tell someone something they wouldn't have known otherwise like showing private messages would do. I'm just wondering if there is a specific reason why you can't.

Removing from game?
I joined a special game, but it quickly lost any sort of extra rules. I wouldn't mind, but it is a 10 day phase world map. Is it possible for a mod to remove me without taking a hit to my record?

Hi KingCyrus. Welcome to the site! We always appreciate questions from new players.

If you ever need to get in touch with the moderators (the "mod team") we can be contacted using the "Contact Moderator" link at the bottom of the page or you can simply email us at [email protected].

We always urge new players to double check the phase length before joining a game. Leaving games is generally considered to be in poor taste, but I'm sure you'll learn these rules the longer you spend on the site.

@dyager, almost every site on the internet with a support team has a link to that support team on the bottom of the page. If you don't know that there really isn't any help for you.

Also, first result on google for webdip mod help has the email.

For real though, it is a bit hard to find contact information for a beginner. I've been using the site for years and I didn't know where to find it without looking around. I just have the address in my contacts from my live game days.

vDip has a cool "mod forum" type thing where you can make posts to the mods. It's pretty useful.

@Chaqa, the unfortunate part of the mod forum on vDip is it isn't searchable and isn't set up for a large scale site. It works great for a much smaller site, but wouldn't work here.

Makes sense, I hadn't considered that it was based off of the forum and the forum is difficult.

Yeah, the vDip Modforum is basically the same as the normal forum but with a bunch of tabs relating to what kind of case it is. Works fine when there aren't many cases, but the lack of any sort of search means it would be really impractical here.

Mods can cancel games but can mods force draw? for example 3 players have played for weeks and a one player breaks a site rule implying the game should be cancelled but if the 2 remaining players agree to draw then can the mods force draw?
