Dip Directions?
In episode 11 of the Diplomacy Games podcast Kaner and I discussed longevity aspects and risk management of sites like webDip and vDip to ensure they grow and reduce the chances of going down (either technically speaking or perceptions of IP infringement). We said we'd create a thread for this for others to contribute. What do you reckon?

DO of you think I'm such a good lynch then lead it. We have at least 1 mislynch left so I'll die if it will help reads that much. That being said, ##Vote Teacon. I may be lurking but he's done even less.

I'm aware the analysis works for rd or darg; I just don't buy darf as scum, and I think rds reaction and the extremely slow pace of this wagon backs me up. Half time is almost over so I'm out now. Rd is scum. We got this.
Hellenic Riot (1626 D(G))

Oh look here are the lurkers trying to save rd. We nailed this.

DemonRHK (100 D(B))

I'm not trying to save anyone, I'm trying to make sure my scumreads hang and make sure I don't get modkilled because I've been doing other things.

Also, you're talking to the guy that repeatedly selfhammers and actually ends days on himself. I don't give a fuck if I die if it will help nail the scum in the long game.

GM NOTE:
Yes, DO, if Kakarroto does not vote, and does not contact the GM to report a problem, he will be Modkilled. Those are the rules, and to be fair, I will apply the rules consistently, without bias or favour.
Durga (3609 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
Good god when I'm GM I'm going to have rules that actually make sense and let us play out the game in good faith.
Ezio (2181 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
##Call gm is it against the rules to send Kak a PM reminding him the game exists, or does that count as discussing the game with another player outside of the game?
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
GM NOTE
If people could be relied on to participate, such rules wouldn't be needed. Such is life. I would love to play in your game, DO. I look forward to it.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
GM NOTE:
Ezio: That is reasonable - I will PM all of the absent players now. You don't have to - but I will.
Durga (3609 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
Well given people can never be relied on to participate (as we don't even have game bans or any relevant way to stop this), I think it ought to be the GM's main duty to not punish, but to maintain the integrity of the game - whatever that takes.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
GM NOTE:
1. This is not the place, or the time, to engage in an extended debate about the rules. The rules were made VERY CLEAR to every player before the game even commenced. It is my duty to apply then consistently now.
2. I have sent a PM to all four players who have not met the post/vote minimum requirements. I did not have to do that. I would also like the game to proceed and to flow with as much participation as possible, I assure you.
Durga (3609 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
It really isn't, it is your duty to maintain the integrity of the game - which means amending the rules to make sure there isn't a large imbalance on the original balance of the game. You know I fought for Teacon to not be modkilled either - it doesn't matter at this stage of the game if they post or vote or not. I get that you're all about the rules blah blah blah, but I'm just saying it is unnecessary and if it is going to be game deciding does not need to occur. Otherwise, we ought null this game entirely from the record because it was not played out to its fullest (like, we lose TWO town to modkills? not cool at all - even if scum lost one of their own it wouldn't be fair to them).

I understand you want to just follow the rules you laid out, and that is fine - But I think if mod kills decide the game then this game should be nullified from the records. I'm having fun so far and would hate for that to happen. I'm not attacking you Jamiet, I think you're doing a solid job - I'm just stating my opinion.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)

VOTE COUNT 6.3.1 (correction)

rdrivera2005 (4) - Hellenic Riot, Fluminator, DemonOverlord, Tom Bombadil
teacon7 (3) dargorygel, rdrivera2005 DemonRHK
Ezio (1) - DeathLlama8

Currently Rdrivera2005 is set to be lynched.

(Corrected because I mistakenly counted Rdrivera's "##HR" as a vote.
Durga (3609 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
Can the scum squad just give up and vote RD please.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
GM NOTE: DO, I understand your view but in that case the last game should also be struck from the record, because Guak (who had a key Mafia role) just went missing for several days and contributed heavily to a Mafia loss. Again, this is a debate for after the game. The post and vote requirements in this game were put in place to penalise non-participation and were approved by the Council. I cannot just ignore them, even if it might lead to a slightly more balanced result today.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
YOU HAVE ONE HOUR AND 15 MINUTES UNTIL EoD
Durga (3609 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
Fuck the council, I'm sure their #1 priority is to have a balanced game. Which is what your rules are NOT letting happen.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
GM NOTE:
Tell you what, if a majority of players would be willing to extend the phase, in order to avoid MODKILLS for non participation, I could authorise that.

Please post ##EXTEND if you wish me to extend the deadline.
Durga (3609 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
##extend if someone is getting modkilled
Durga (3609 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
Though honestly at this point in the game I don't think we need post or vote requirements. But I'll settle for that I suppose.
Durga (3609 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
Here's to hoping Flum & HR can get back online and see this =/
Ezio (2181 D)

##vote RD
##extend
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
GM NOTE:
I will accept a majority of the players who have been present this phase. This means I need FIVE votes to extend. (Of which we have two).
rdrivera2005 (3533 D(G))
20 Jan 17 UTC
Can't you see that scum DemonRHK is framing me up to the lynch? Then in the last minute Teacon will show and vote me for self-defense.
Durga (3609 D)
20 Jan 17 UTC
Extend then, rd - and we can sort this out when Kaka arrives.
