Right on.

There's also a cross-platform tournament going on right now called the Nexus Diplomacy Tournament. If you're looking for games you can sign up to the queue and play here, Backstabbr, or a couple of other platforms as well!

Thanks for the tips. I wasn't sure how the RR was calculated so it's good to know that after I start playing that it will adjust and I'll be able to join more games.

Posting on the forum to organize games is often a good way, and you usually get more reliable players that way. :-)

I think you start with no reliability rating but it'll be 100% as soon as you start playing, and as long as you don't NMR it'll stay that way!

I find there's mostly gunboat public games here so I create a lot of my own full press games. As long as you give about a week for people to join they always fill up.

Hi all, I used to play a decent amount of diplomacy online at backstabbr but there is a much larger playerbase on this site. I see that many of the new games are either password-locked or require a reliability % rating so that makes it a little difficult to find new games to join. Any suggestions or search tips to solve this?

I also created two games, "Gunboat Diplomacy-12" and "Every other day Diplomacy" if anyone would like to join those.
