I foresee an admin battle of locking and unlock on this thread.
Admins prob don't care much about his thread ; after all you don't win anything

Isn't it a male thing to always wanna win though. And aren't the admins guys...

well then shouldn't they be posting then locking.. in theory.. I'm guessing they're good chaps and wouldn't do something like that however.
That would be highly unpopular of them to do it

OK, KoD. PI (or pi) is the greek letter that refers to the ratio of the circumference of a circle to it's diameter. circumference=diameter*pi.

Hey Celticfox, if they ever show back up, djbent and Crazyter are both lady diplomats as well. And they were both quite good. I introduced CT to the site (used to play with/against her on the judges where she would *always* stab me) and DJB was great at timing a stab.

Ooo that's good to hear. I think a few years back when I first looked about here there were a few other. Those must be them. I wanna learn how to be a good diplomacy player like that. I know some is instinct and some is knowledge and some is just blind luck.

The biggest part to being a great diplomacy player is learnign how to sweet talk others. some say women have an unfair advantage. I say they are just smarter and know how to use that advantage. That's why, as a percent of the WebDip population, the ladies have a higher percentage in the top tier. You/they aren't given an unfair advantage, we men just fall for it like the idiots we are.
Celticfox (100 D(B))
14 Mar 12 UTC
Hrm see I think I need to let go of this honesty thing I have. At least in regards to playing this game. And yeah I do think a women would have a little bit of an unfair advantage face to face (Given they're playing against straight men and wearing a lowish cut shirt) , but not really on-line.

Funny you should mention the whole "distract them with sex in person" thing. Women try that at poker a lot, even the pros. But it really doesn't affect the better poker players cause their eyes are on you body and facial *language* to see if you have a tell and their brains are in the game.

I had one woman (I won't call her a lady cause there was nothing lady like in her tactics) who kept leaning on me at the table and rubbing my arm and calling me sweety and shit one night so bad I had to ask the pit boss to have her removed. She kept leaning over every time I wanted to look at my cards and was all touchy feely. She got pissed when they removed her form the room (she was also drunk as fuck) but she learned that all she did was make herself a target if I ever came across her again. And I did about a week later when she was on the toher side of the tabel. I cleaned her out and then reminded her about the week earlier by giving her a red chip (five dollars) tip for showing me her boobs all night from across the table and giving me some good boob feel the previous week.the previous. She stormed away pissed and I relayed the previous week's tale to the rest of the table who got a big chuckle out of it.
Celticfox (100 D(B))

No no there's an art to it. You don't just flaunt. That lady did not know what she was doing. And on some guys at the poker table it does work.. some it does not. And it's more then that guys treat women differently. Less apt, for the most part, to be a vicious bastard in person. While on line who know what's behind the name.

That's why I made certain to say the better poker players. I've seen plenty of fish fall to lady sharks. I even know one lady dealer who plays at a different casino and even I can get distracted by her to the point I bet big on 6s full when two over pair were on the board (along with my third 6) and all she had to have was any one of four cards to have me beat, and I was neutered 23 years ago when I got married. :-)

Rofl I wanna learn that kinda skill from her. That can take true talent and one awesome body.
Draugnar (0 DX)
14 Mar 12 UTC
Oh, she had the body alright. She dealt one of the "bad beat" hands and the guy who lost not only tipped her well above the norm (bad beats are certain preset hands where the casino pays back thousands, even tens of thousands, they collect in a special pot from all the tables between the bad beats [usually at $1 per hand] to the loser of the hand, the winner, and all the players at the table). Anyhow, she got a good tip from everyone at the table based on their share, and the loser, who happened to be single, wanted her to go on a cruise with him (oin him of course). He was devastated to find out she was married with kids.

Everyone, except the guy who has no internet, has issues a pause vote. He can't issue one, because he can't access the site. Could a mod please help here?

If You Have A Problem With My Views, My Demeanor, or Me...Draugnar & Co.
Tell me. Write me a PM. Tell me in a post. I make myself a large enough target I can--and have to--take it. I have no problem with that. (However, creating a thread about me and telling me not to bother post or pay heed while your congregation evaluates me as a poster and person and shares how much of a prick you all think I am with others while claiming *I* am the one without class...and worse--if you're going to call me shit, at least "say it to my face," as it were.

Reducing Resigns
Would it be possible to create a system that allows for the creator of a new game to but a max resign percentage required to join the game? I have no idea how hard it would be to code, but I'm just thinking allowed. It could be an advanced option, with the default having no limit. Another idea could be to add in a penalty for resigns (in advanced options). Any thoughts?

Public Press Game - call for players
I rarely play public press, but I am hoping to bring in some players that I haven't yet had the pleasure (that I can remember) of lining up against. The only criteria, and sole reason for the public press, is that you must lob insults or banter w/ allies and foes alike. Thus, I'd like to personally invite Nigee and Zultar along w/ 4 other random persons that would be interested.

Team game on Vdip. Grab a buddy and join.
There is a two player team game starting soon. Only a few spots left. Grab a friend and come join and see if you can win with a teammate. This is not meta gaming at all. It is being allowed to have two friends join and play as a team. Stated so in the rules and on the forum on Vdip. So if you like playing with a teammate and would like to play a game for sure to be allies and no issues of complaints. Join: http://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=8986
