Looking for the opinion of my esteemed peers out there
Is there ever a time when intentionally bouncing yourself would be a good strategy to confuse people you are playing with? If so what sorts of situations would be appropriate for that?

An allowance for Preference
Kestas, you are doing an excellent job moderating this site, and currently, in my opinion, this is the premier online Diplomacy site. I do think, however, that giving the creator of a game the option to set country preferences would give the game a new dynamic. This change would of course mean first-come, first-serve. I find that often players constantly receive the same country/coutries and this can lead to monotony(me-The German powers). Please consider this change.

Country selection.
I would like to know if there any system that defines the country that each player plays in a game. I mean, I played many times Italy and I got a bit bored. Also, I have yet to play a game with Turkey which is my favourite.

Is it just luck? Or is it connected with you DP or any other factor?

Sioraf V Sicarius
CJ 92(Sioraf as Killeens) is the most frequent poster on PlayDiplomacy.com and Sicarius is the most frequent poster on PHPDiplomacy.com so I thought it would be interesting to see who people prefer. This is not a popularity contest,this is an opinion poll by the way. Please read posts from both users before deciding.
1. Sioraf/CJ 92
2.Sicarius
3.Both/Neither

Seriously Sioraf... wtf did you think would happen in this thread?
as soon as you cease your pointless drivel
Hmm, let me think about that... THAT I WOULD FIND OUT SOMETHING INTERESTING JUST LIKE IT SAYS IN THE VERY FIRST POST OF THIS TOPIC.
Oh so discussing religion is drivel and finding out something interesting is drivel too?

well it does look like you have your answer
Yes, to the Maquis de Sade question.
Answer me this dingleberryjones if someone else say your average Joe asked the questions that you say are "drivel" would they still be "drivel" then?

Sioraf +1, but why start a topic about yourself?
Ursa,everybody, no offense but this thread was not intended to be about how great or how scummy I am it's to see is the main poster from this site or Play more liked. If someone posted more often than me on Play then it would be Sicarius V That Guy. Although it's Sicarius 7 Me 1 I haven't posted "Oh f**k Sicarius is slaughtering me" I have only posted:
Update
Sicarius
(number)
and furthermore I have never posted "Ha ha! I am fantastic!"
Archonix (246 D)
11 Nov 08 UTC
I guess you have found out something interesting - people respond negatively to inane and ego-maniacal questions. I always thought that this was common knowledge but whatever.

Sicarius 6
Sioraf -1

Seems like Sicarius 'won' by a landslide.
FIND OUT SOMETHING INTERESTING JUST LIKE IT SAYS IN THE VERY FIRST POST OF THIS TOPIC WAS THE PURPOSE OF THIS TOPIC ARE YOU EVEN READING MY POSTS AND IT'S SICARIUS 6 SIORAF -1 IT'S SICARIUS 7 SIORAF 1 NOW WILL YOU STOP BEING SO VENOMOUS AND POST SOMETHING RELEVANT RATHER THAN ATTACKING ME FOR NO REASON OH AND WHAT IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE IS THAT BEING A JERK IS NOT A GOOD IDEA. I PUT THIS ONE ALL IN CAPITAL LETTERS IN THE OFF CHANCE YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY READ IT.

Sicarius = conspiracy theories. -1
Sioraf = posting about himself. -1
It's one man one vote I'm afraid.
Archonix (246 D)
11 Nov 08 UTC
Its still inane, I spent three minutes writing my post so I didn't read your prior one. Besides trim101 and dingleberry both voted -1 and since Ursa is the only one that voted +1 doesn't that leave you with -1?

Besides, I think that 'attacking' you is very relevant considering you started this shit.
Read the topic from the start and I think if you count up the votes it's me 1 Sicarius -7 because -me is the same as +Sicarius. I think attacking me is uncalled for and so is swearing after all this is not what you say it is. When Bill Clinton carried out an opinion poll to see how he stood in the race for governor of Arkansas did anyone insult him just for a little fact finding? No because they're not half-blind bigots who can't count like you.
That first - is obviously a typo, not that you'll believe me.
Archonix (246 D)
11 Nov 08 UTC
Are you honestly comparing yourself to someone running for an elected post? Your 'intent' was to satisfy your vanity, his was to determine what voters want him to do. Its simply obnoxious.
That's rubbish and you know it Archonix. Do you seriously think I'm comparing myself to Bill Clinton? Where is the proof that I'm vain? I repeat AGAIN:FIND OUT SOMETHING INTERESTING JUST LIKE IT SAYS IN THE VERY FIRST POST OF THIS TOPIC WAS THE PURPOSE OF THIS TOPIC. It's not obnoxious you are the obnoxious one. Honestly, I say post absolutely nothing bad about you and already in just 2 weeks or so you've posted that I believe in the flying spaghetti monster and the ancient Asian-Irish and that I'm in vain and none with a shred of evidence. What of you? Are you also a follower of De Sade or are you a bigot? I'll tell you where you can stick your flying spaghetti monster.
Halfblind bigot? Really? So calling your post self serving and drivel makes me a bigot? Have you no stomach for a proper flame battle? Most people who crave attention this much create a youtube video looking like an idiot.
And I have no idea what you are talking about with the flying spaghetti monster or asian irish anything. I think you have me confused with another detractor.

Actually you stupid jerk I was calling Archonix a half-blind bigot you style over substance lunatic. Craving attention? Claptrap. You're more guilty of that than me of craving attention. What does make you a bigot is calling me "a non-practising deadhead" (and no my dear temee that is not a compliment) and insulting me for no proper reason and hiding behind the improvable rubbish that I'm vain to hide it. What are you a multi account of Archonix?

I second that.
You are right. You didn't call me a half blind big. You asked me if I was a rascist (for what reason I cannot fathom).

As for Non-Practicing Deadhead. That was my response to the question of religion. That is MY religion. It wasn't directed towards you, it was MY answer to your question. *I* am a non-practicing deadhead.
I see. Well then I take back what I said abot you in that thread.
trim101 (363 D)
11 Nov 08 UTC
sounds reasonable to me, being a non practicing deadhead
I must admit I am well and truly baffled. So my first comment on this thread ('self important grandstanding') taken in conjunction with a misinterpreted statement ('non-practicing deadhead') seems to have filled you with alot of antipathy towards me, based on both your first and second responses to me in this thread.
You need to lighten up.

All possible diplmacy games.
Hi Guys,
Given the finite number of sc's and only 7 major powers, there has to be some sort of closure on all the possible games in diplomacy, i wonder what is the maximum possible number of practical diplomacy games. Practical considering that all 7 powers are played by 7 different reasonably logical people.

Very slow play so you don't have to check up on the game every day (and can skip weekends if you need to). Serious players wanted (none of those namby pamby players that drop out after 1902).
