I was wondering how many Portuguese speaking players are in here. Would like to create a game spoken in Portuguese if there are enough players and enough interest.

Sardinia and Corsica
Has anyone else noticed that Corsica is colored green for Italy while Sardinia is left as the neutral salmon color? This strikes me as being incorrect since the Kingdom of Italy definitely included Sardinia while Corsica was under France during this time period. Was this error part of the original board game?

New Game
I made a new game with 115 dip. It's called "Sorry Mario, but the Princess is in Clyde." Well...she's always been there. No one takes it, so that's why she never gets saved. ;_; Didn't you notice that England is pink like Peach? Anyway, join the game and save her... :)

Does poor spelling matter? Discuss
Someone spells caricatures incorrectly and it starts a debate. Should it? Should people pick others up on poor spelling when it is clear what the word should be? Is poor spelling a sign of low intelligence?

nice try The General, but just because there are 112 people on now, doesn't mean that they are available to be on the computer and only dedicated to diplomacy for the next 6-8 hours. =/

today and tomorrow would have been great days for me, but i had 1 hour meetings come up in the middle of both days, so i'm not able to, unfortunately. and i can only play live at work, when i don't have better things to do =P

The General (554 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
I agree that there is no way that 112 people are going to be able to be on here for 6-8 hours, but my hope was that 7 of 112 would be on here with some time to kill and lucky for me I know I have 1 of those 112 interested. (me)
The General (554 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
I don't really want to set up the game before I get at least 5 people interested, because I know some people will want to play a 10 min game but not a 15 min game and some will want to play PPSC while other WTA, so I prefer to get interest and then make the game.
The General (554 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
What do you think Maniac? 15 min game 15 point buy in? I prefer instant builds and retreats how about you?

5 min turns only work if it's a gunboat.
hellalt (24 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
it will be almost a gunboat game but not an official gunboat. that means if you really want something from someone you have enough time to tell him/her
hellalt (24 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
especially if you type fast like I do ;)
StevenC. (1047 D(B))
22 Sep 09 UTC
Yeah, I hate gunboat and 5 minutes is too fast.
hellalt (24 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
I love gunboats. I don't like much talk. In the TMG challenge people keep talking and talking for hrs.
StevenC. (1047 D(B))
22 Sep 09 UTC
Well, talking is a part of Diplomacy. The more you communicate the better your chances that you will do well.
djbent (2572 D(S))
22 Sep 09 UTC
not like we needed further proof, but that sentence does explain hellalt's record pretty well.
hellalt (24 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
yes but successful communication can be quite short
writing an essay doesn't necessarily improve communication
I prefer people that can tell me in max 3 lines what they want from me and what they are willing to offer in return.
hellalt (24 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
what's wrong with my record djbent?
Let me remind you I have one win more than you ;-)
The General (554 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
djbent has 19 draws which says a lot more than your 1. You may play this game against noobs for easy wins, but you can tell djbent plays good talent and still comes out with draws.
hellalt (24 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
I don't play noobs anymore. I check out ghost rankings before i join a game.
I just don't like people criticizing my stats without me giving them the right or permission to do so. especially people with less experience.

vamosrammstein (757 D(B))
22 Sep 09 UTC
Probably djbent, because he's played a few games more than her.
StevenC. (1047 D(B))
22 Sep 09 UTC
And yet she has nearly 1500 D to his 5. No offense.
hellalt (24 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
VR got it right. I think I'm entitled to call someone less experienced if he/she has played less games than me, right? (this is a rhetorical question, don't answer it)
hellalt (24 D)
22 Sep 09 UTC
Gathering points is pointless
vamosrammstein (757 D(B))
22 Sep 09 UTC
Points only indicate skill to a degree.
Obviously somebody like Rait who has astrinomical amounts of points is pretty good, but between say StevenC. and myself, there isn't a huge difference in terms of playing ability.

I wonder when this will be adopted here; in the 'Orders' that you can review after a turn, it notes when an order fails by underlining it and writing 'failed', such as: (Note this is a new map)
