As part of a school project, I am taking data on the territories in diplomacy to create a thematic map (possibly). Please fill out if you have the time (no trolling please).

I've just got back home...
... from a higway car crash accident. Which has occured a few hours ago. I was the passenger in a car which has been dislodged on the rail and got back on the road running 50mph through the snow. After that a van hit us from behind. The car is totaly damaged but I've got through with a light brain concussion only. I am a lucky bastard!

I would like a new game.
I don't care bet size or non anon/anon. Full press WTA High quality game. No requirements other then you must have a resign rate 1% or 0%... if yours is higher, explain the resigns in the forum, and we will see if it was your fault or if it was out of your control. (Internet problems in a live game)

Analyzing data from webdip games?
Just wondering if any thought has been given to making all the move data from the history of diplo games available? Seems like every strategy article I read is based on analyzing like 100 postal games. While interesting and still relevant, there's no way to know if strategies have shifted over the years. In any case, the data exists in a much more easily analyzable format. Just wondering if it is out there anywhere?

Lots of people don't know much about the traditions of Britain prior to King Arthur. And few at all know anything about pre-roman times.

Learn the basics of Celtic history through a fun, historically inaccurate, clean, wholesome, fun, violent, stabby game! Live! This evening, ideally.

I will try to get Achiellies and Bo Sox to play, maybe more.

http://vdiplomacy.net/variants.php?variantID=75

Post below if you're interested!!

Fair enough. Doesn't look like we'll have enough people. I'm very interested in the variant - it's the one that I've been most interested to try and so I'm glad to see that someone has adapted the map.

Yeah, sure. The proud Celtic people took millenia to advance all of the way from the paleolithic state all of the way to the....neolithic state. In the south we have a saying "There is always tomorrow." We will find time for a game.

Now *thats* a good question. I agree to PM players once I can square away enough people and enough time for a match. Feel free to invite your friends if you would like.

To anyone else, you are encouraged to join if you would like a good match!

If this game were changed to a (1-day phase?) game would you guys still be interested? If so I could offer (threaten?) to bring Draugnar and maybe one or two other veterans.

Achillies, Draugnar,
Can one of you post a recruitment thread in the VDiplomacy boards? Thank you.

Here is the current roster:

1) Chieftan Al Swearengen
2) Timur
3) Tyran
4) "Braveheart" Achillies
5) Draugnar Calgacus
6)
7)
8)

So it looks like we need three more, if we know anyone who is interested.
Al Swearengen (0 DX)

Hey gang I have received a couple of messages yesterday from people interested in this match. We are three people short - it would help if one of you would either recruit some of your friends or if you would post an advertisement on VDip. I'm flexible about starting times, flexible about phase length and flexible about point value. The sooner we recruit three more players, then the sooner we can start.

TO EVERYONE ELSE: Let me know if you'd like to play, we need three more players.

Timur has been notified that I am placing him in charge of this thread. My hope is that he will do a better job than I have. Unfortunately work will be taking up more of my time this month so I won't have time to organize games. I will be willing to play if someone else sets it up.

THREE MOAR PLZ

This just in! Veteran Player NigeeBaby joins the match.

1) Chieftan Al Swearengen
2) Timur
3) Tyran
4) "Braveheart" Achillies
5) Draugnar Calgacus
6) Nigee "the Assassin" Baby
7)
8)

And in other news, Draugnar will no longer be the most controversial participant.

Have a Birthday Comin' Up
And I know y'all don't care, but I'm wondering if I should care a little more. It just doesn't seem like the 'year' is that important. In the past year, I've tripled my number of college credits, attempted to analyze my own psychology, and completely changed my style of composition with heavy influence from Charles Ives. But I'm starting to evaluate my life in increments of a few months or so.

The barely (un)intended effect of having a birthday coming up:I DEMAND JUSTICE
This is meant to cheer up Jamiet while simultaneously allowing people to post their most random thought of the day. Or as some folks like to do around here, post a random link and ask people to discuss.

So either post some barely funny comments here (save the really funny comments for when Jamie comes out of surgery) or DISCUSS!
