webDiplomacy 1.3
Hi all, released webDip 1.3, which actually doesn't contain any new features but makes the code easier to translate for developers. I'm deploying it here so it gets a good bug test before I release it, so please let me know if you spot anything odd or experience any errors.
(The next release will contain new features)

Athiests, Christians, Monty Python fans and debaters alike - you must watch this clip!
This is an interview with John Cleese and Michael Palin after the release of "Life of Brian" and it is fucking brilliant. I absolutely love the way the educated English can sound so civil while hurling insults at each other. Al Swearington would be proud! It's refreshing to see 4 people argue with eachother so brilliantly, humorously and politely

Welfare States
I know the positives... I've thought about it for ages. According to all of you, thinking optimistically while maintaining a realistic view on what I can get is naive. So what's the negative that I apparently don't get about socialism or corporatism? They're bad words to each other, but what's so bad about either?

Hello Friends,

Are you the sort of person that thinks cheating on your girlfriend with her sister is humorous? Ever drop a metal fork in the microwave in the employee lounge just to be a jerk? Think it's funny to drop your neighbor's cat into a blender when he's out of town?

If you're the sort of depraved, inhuman monster that would condone this sort of behavior, then you're just the vile scumbag that we're looking for.

Achillies27 is sponsoring a game of Diplomacy. 1-Day Phase, Full Press Anonymous, Medium Pot. No rejoins in the unlikely event that someone CD's.

We've had pretty good luck screening out weak/lame players and so we are rounding up a bunch of evil wretches to play the worst, sneakiest and filthiest game in the tradition of this site.

Let's make this a game so filled with backstabbing that even Sandgoose would be appalled. We will indulge in the worst behaviors, and will not be satisfied until we've made a few players cry and quit the site.

This will be a game to unleash your inner monster.

Join us.

To play, post your name below or message me privately. Also, please post the *maximum* bet that you'll be comfortable with.

Thank you in advance, and may the most evil bastard win.

I'm in! And any bet up to 200 is fine by me. 102 is the perfect bet, though, especially with no replacements in the event of a CD. it's 21 D per SC.

although with your maner of speach Al, I don't see the point in anonymous. We'll all know it's you ;-) but either way, I'm game
My max bet would be... 200? yeah, 200. I'm comfortable with any and all smaller bet sizes, though.
Any chance of 1 day, 12-hour phases? That would be my preference, but I can live with 1 day phases as well.
Draugnar (0 DX)
09 Jan 13 UTC
1 day, 1 day+1 hour, 1 day+12 hour, 2 day, or 2 day+2 hour all work for me. my preference is the 25 hours.
philcore (317 D(S))
09 Jan 13 UTC
my pref is 24 hours, but I wouldn't argue with an extra hour - even though I don't see the point.

I just hate waiting a day and a half for someone to decide where to retreat! I wish we could have games where the retreat and build phases were half the length of the diplo phases.
Perhaps we should commit to finalize retreats immediately, barring extenuating circumstances (for example, a situation in which a power has the option of retreating into an ally's SC after the Fall moves).

I am game, too, if you need another. 24 hours are good enough, but if you need the extra hour for good luck, so be it... 100 bid works for me -- if you are going to be an ass, might as well pay for the privelage. Nothing says dirty bastard like taking a full day to disband in retreat with no options... How can we punish player for honesty? I say play public press only, since nothing is to be trusted....

I wont play - but I''d spectate!
@Al_Swearengen: You didn't say whether the game is going to be PPSC or WTA?

I think WTA would make for a better (more evil deeds done) game. Making the buy-in 102 D would be a good idea too - no riff-raff means classier evil deeds.

I'd like to be a spectator on this one too.

Thank you for the response, Gentlemen. Currently reviewing applications with Achillies27. As far as I can tell, we can still use one or two more players so please post or message me if you're interested.

There have been a small number of requests associated with this thread, and the good news is that it appears likely that we shall be able to accommodate most of them, for example the 25-hour phase. Also a couple of people have requested to watch the game and I don't have any problem with that, provided that it not bother any of the players.

One more note, I did have a question about a Public Press game, to which my response is that if you would like to do this, I recommend that we make a separate, "Extreme Personalities" game. Fortress Door used to run those sorts of games and I think they are often fun.

"Are you the sort of person that thinks cheating on your girlfriend with her sister is humorous?"

Since you think both the girlfriend and the sister, being women, have no more status than a dog, why would this be "evil" behaviour in your eyes, Al? Most pet dogs don't mind if you get another pet dog too.
