Just an FYI
There was a thread announcing someone was new here, in response to a bunch saying that someone was leaving, and I would just like to announce that I've been around a medium amount of time (7 months). You can find my exact join date on my profile, userID=10479, if your ever wondering.

Dislodging yourself?
Are you not allowed to dislodge one of your own units in this version of diplomacy? I supported an attack on one of my own fleets so I could disband and place an army, but the order failed. Any idea why?

New games are not working
Since the 'new' look for the site, I've tried joining 3 games with my mates, all of which have failed to show up once the entrance time is done.
Does anyone else have this problem? Know of any solutions?
Cheers

Will a mod please clear this up?
A player in one of my games is accusing me of multi-accounting. I wanted to shed some light on this, and verify that I am not, indeed, a multi, and/or a meta-gamer.

Sun 02 PM Autumn 1916: its interesting how you and Alexander played the same way in this game:

http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=11460
Sun 03 PM Autumn 1916: Well he was a CD take over in this game, and the other game was PP, so I'm not sure they're really comparable... But as England, I usually try to ally with France.
11:19 AM Seems less like an ally and more like a well used pawn.
11:53 AM Are you playing the same game I am? I only attacked him when he went CD. Three times.
08:52 PM I'm playing the same game as you. Try reading what I write instead of answering your own question. I don't care that you attack him. That is well within the guidelines of the game. HIS MOVES HELP YOU. Not just in one game but two. Then he disappears. Suspicious yes? I'M SAYING YOU AND HIM, IF THERE REALLY IS A HIM, ARE CHEATING.
10:05 PM OK. Well accuse me in the forums. I don't have time to deal with you. Anyone with any remote amount of common sense would tell you we aren't.

(The other game in question is gameID=10958)

I'm tired of dealing with this guy accusing me of multi-accounting, and really, his accusation is kind of a joke, since one of the games he is talking about, Alexander was a CD takeover. Will a mod please verify that I am not a multi?

Since one of the games is ongoing, I am not posting his name, but the game is almost over, and it doesn't matter. But if you're reading this, feel free to pipe up if you want to argue your case.

Chrispi,
One of my opponents in one of my games called me a motherfucker. Can you please confirm that aside from my wife, I have no fucked anyone's mother?
LanGaidin (1509 D)
12 Aug 09 UTC
Although my word is meaningless here because I do not have the powers of Chrisp/TGM, et al, I can vouch that rlumley has never appeared to be multi-accounting and has always been a straightforward chap.

That being said, can I get a mod's confirmation that I am not adopted and unwanted as one foe has claimed?

lol @ DJ & Lan...
If someone accuses you in game of being a cheat, take it in stride. This isn't the first thread like this (don't think I'm picking on you rlumley), but I'm not sure every accusation made in a game needs to be brought to the public domain.

If someone calls you a cheat, tell them to feel free to take it up with a Mod, or to make a post in the forum.

Frankly, calling someone a cheat is good tactical strategy. Some players, even if they aren't cheats, are more liable to try to PROVE they aren't cheats by attacking their ally.
spyman (424 D(G))
12 Aug 09 UTC
Can't say I like the idea of falsely accusing someone of cheating as a strategy. I can see your point but it sounds unpleasant.
Xapi (194 D)
12 Aug 09 UTC
If calling someone a cheater is a valid strategy, then asking for mod clarification on the matter inthe forum is a valid counter-strategy.
rlumley (0 DX)
12 Aug 09 UTC
Xapi +1.

DJ, I would agree, except that in the game, there is no tactical benefit to him. I've been allied with France from the beginning. He stabbed me, and right before I died, he cded. I took back over the English mainland, and a new France took over. We allied again, and then he stabbed me. He went CD. (I really didn't have any choice but to ally with him) So I attacked him again, and took some more centers. Now, the third time someone took over, he went CD immediately, so I continued to attack him. How is calling me a cheat for doing this remotely strategically beneficial?

Wait... You're in this game. Why am I explaining this to you? :-P

It's even worse in a gunboat game when the fudgepackers break gunboat (i.e. cheat) to call YOU a cheat. That one pissed me off big time and now both of the players accusing me of cheating are almost gone. Karma's a bitch, but you gotta love her when she goes your way.
rlumley (0 DX)
12 Aug 09 UTC
Yeah... I would really not like that.
thewonderllama (100 D)
12 Aug 09 UTC
DJ, I'll step in here and confirm that you have not fucked any mothers aside from your wife. Daughters on the other hand...well, let's just say Draugnar would be jealous.

LanGaidin, I am happy to say that your opponent is full of lies as you are not adopted and are in fact wanted by Interpol for international espionage.
Lumley,
I didn't even check which game you were referring to, so I didn't know I was in it. I still haven't checked which game. But it doesn't matter.

What you said above (right below Xapi +1) is your defense. There is no need to bring it to a public forum.

As for whether there was tactical benefit, first, i wasn't referring to this specific game, just stating that it can be useful (not that I've used it, but I know its gotten in my head when someone accused me). And it obviously got in your head enough to make you post publicly about it, so it will possibly knock you off your game.

Xapi,
I would wholeheartedly disagree with you. Calling someone a cheat is IN game. Bringing it to the public forum in response is OUT of game. Emailing a Mod would seem a happy medium.
Draugnar (0 DX)
12 Aug 09 UTC
Fucking mothers is fine as long as they aren't your own. Fuck man, I want to fuck the daughters AND fuck their mother. But it should be noted that every woman is some other woman's daughter. So anytime you fuck a woman, you are fucking a daughter.

OK, I think that was enough use of the word fuck for one post.
Draugnar (0 DX)
12 Aug 09 UTC
One question: if you fuck a woman and she gets pregnant and gives borth to a child, does that make you a mother fucker ex post facto?
LanGaidin (1509 D)
12 Aug 09 UTC
Thank you twl, I appreciate that.
Please keep the secret from Interpol though. If they knew that I was in Cleveland, OH, I'd be in a lot of trouble.

@ Draugnar - please let me know who Karma is so that I don't get in a game w/ her:) Sounds like she has stabbed once too often.
Xapi (194 D)

"Xapi,

We can agree to disagree then.

"One question: if you fuck a woman and she gets pregnant and gives borth to a child, does that make you a mother fucker ex post facto?"

Only if you're traveling back in time to the point where you were conceived, and this woman happens to be your mother.

and how do you feel about the idea of other people fucking your daughters, draugnar? or fucking your sons, for that matter.
LanGaidin (1509 D)
12 Aug 09 UTC
Also, I'd like to recommend everyone use the word fornicate so we can bring back some good, solid Puritan values to this community. You'll have to excuse me now, or I'm going to be late to my morning witch trial.

@ LanGaidin: You shouldn't worry too much about it.

In the end, it's just a school filled with teenage boys with raging hormones.

@LG: I don't think human nature is likely to change in the course of a generation, but I have a friend who works in social evolution, I'll ask him about it.
Xapi (194 D)
12 Aug 09 UTC
@ djbent: When are you gonna get some demon spawns of your own?

There is something very motherly about you.

Probably the way you threaten to kill (or worst) anyone who puts their hands on a child.

A player takes over CD. Immediately backstabbed.
Let's say you have an ally but due to Civil Disorder someone else takes him over. Would you consider it a back-stab if they attack you since they can read all your previous conversations?
