Game Variant: Declaration of war
I wanted to check the opinions (and maybe gather people interested) to try out something. Haven't check if such variants are already out there and have been tested - would appreciate all feedback.

What ever happened with Hicham and Tux (12966 and 12967)?
There was a post earlier today that is completely gone about their suspicious consecutive numbers and they nearly every game one is in, so is the other. That post is no where to be found although older ones that haven't had new messages since then are. So what happened?

phpDip Mobile?
Anyone have trouble accessing this from a phone? I'm using a Blackberry Storm 9530 and whenever I view a game board my chat just appears as a long list instead of having its own window with its own scroll-bar. It will go behind the map, so if I haven't talked with the person much their message gets hidden. Then it will continue down, overlapping with order information, etc. as far down as it has to.

Anyone else had anything like this? More importantly, anyone know the fix?

I love france and italy, mainly because those are the 2 factions I won with... But because they normally aren't attacked early on in the game and have more time to diplomize instead of defending.

Why would we do that when we can ally against you and make the game so much easier without a pain in the butt biting our flanks?

You seem as if your the key turning point in the game... Like your some big kahuna... Seriously we just started and your already thinking I am gunna pwn everyone else. I admit you have the most points but yeesh... Do you really think we suck that much?
Pandarsenic (1485 D)
21 Jan 09 UTC
Because Turkey takes ages to dislodge, especially if he knows you're going to try to nail him. You guys ain't gettin' shit from me as long as:
1) You don't have Black Sea, which you won't ever if you ally against me.
2) I hold Constantinople. It takes a lot to get Turkey out of Constantinople.

You'll have years of stagnancy while everyone except us three grows. Someone from the Western triple will emerge as a dominant force. We'll all lose.

That's why.

Ofc, we could just set 3 units vrs you and then use the rest of ours out east to do what ever they do. If Russia Gets Romania and Bulgaria and I get Serbia and Greece I don't suppose having extra units to invade you would be to hard to find. And keep a steady front on our opposite end.
Pandarsenic (1485 D)
21 Jan 09 UTC

Ah, but first you have to wrest Bulgaria from my hands, as well as possibly Greece. See, if you and Russia ally against me, my most natural response is HEY ITALY WANT SUPPORT FOR A CONVOY TO GREECE?

Except Italy is CD... Which puts this situation rather much more in our favor now that you mention it...
Shah (815 D)

Greetings from Russia,

I don't see what's in it for Austria to ally itself with Turkey... it's simply to inviting for Turkey to stab Austria at some point.

[A]

I was kind of getting that vibe as well. So I am hoping that we can follow through with my plan to dispose of the Turkish annoyance asap. Do you have any ideas you think are better?
Pandarsenic (1485 D)
21 Jan 09 UTC
[T]

Actually, I allied with Austria as Turkey in my last Global Press game.
We dominated and each of the 2 major alliance group got a 17-center line, if I recall correctly.

Also, this game isn't continuing until we get an Italy. The whole point of this was I wanted a no-CD Public Press game.
xcurlyxfries (0 DX)
21 Jan 09 UTC
[A] now that you realize you will be smashed without Italy...

I feel that this is a very low stroke to be using Panda as you need to read the map first for your allies before making assumptions that they will be there for you (IE Italy) I feel as if given a different situation you would not be this much into halting the game until a new player arrives.
Shah (815 D)
21 Jan 09 UTC
[R]

The way I see it, if Turkey is gone, Russia can focus its attention on its Northern and Western frontiers...therefore I think your plan looks the most appealing. Although we would need to revisit it if the Italians get their act together.

As for Turkey, I think it needs to give us a good enough reason to keep it alive. Russia is open to any and all ideas.
xcurlyxfries (0 DX)
21 Jan 09 UTC
[A]

I feel the same but if he offers either one of us a deal it would be most likely against each other which would ultimately end up in us imploding and Turkey reaping the benefits.
Pandarsenic (1485 D)
21 Jan 09 UTC
[T, regarding A]
xcurlyxfries: Bullshit. I can get you quotes from the last game if you want proof that we were annoyed by how it went.
CHECK THE TIMESTAMPS
I said we should pause before I had checked what country I was, much less before I expected to be opening communications with them for a potential anti-Austrian attack.
Pandarsenic (1485 D)
21 Jan 09 UTC
[T]
R: Are you familiar with that lovely little thing called a Juggernaut?
The one where Russia gets most of the benefits, but Turkey also has a fair share, and we dominate both the southern and northern waters?
Yeah.

A: If you get the Balkans - all of them - and I get Russia - all of it - through a series of trades later, I can advance through Germany as you drive westwards through Italy and France.
Shah (815 D)
21 Jan 09 UTC
[R]

The Juggernaut is powerful when done right, but I fear in this game with a global press, its success is much less likely don't you think?

What are your favorite and least favorite countries to play as and why?
Favorite: France. You've got good sea room for fleets, and it has excellent position on defense. I was attacked by both England and Germany at the beginning of the last game I won. I was able to fight my way back up my country by myself and eventually win. First country I ever played as well.

Trying to set up games
I have been looking around for standard time gams (24 hours or something like that) but all I find are games with 5-10 point buyins. If anyone wants to try something a little more serious(40-60 points) post here. I made a game before but no one had joined it so it seems to me all the interest is either in tiny point games or in 100+ point games that I don't realy want to play yet.
