Olidip back online...
I moved the site to a new sever. New address: vdiplomacy.com
Needed to erase all the old games and reset everybodys DPoints, but you should be able to log on with your old username/password.
Thanks for your patience.

Who's up for a live game on Olidip.net (now vdiplomacy.com)?
I have nothing to do all day and feel like killing a few hours by playing a live game.
I would like to try one of the obscure maps on vdip, say sengoku. Whos in?

Metagaming?
Is it metagaming to ask for advice on a game that is currently running? What about general advice concerning the country you are playing, without reference to the game?

This Time On Philosophy Weekly: George Carlin--"I'm an Entropist...I Like Anarachy!"
For the last one of these chat sessions of the year (that I REALLY enjoy and value, by the way, so thank you all so much, those of you who continue to share your ideas...I respect you so much for taking the time and effort to CARE and to SHARE your opinion) I thought, in the wake of that last "cyber-attack" by self-proclaimed anarchists (at least I think they were) we could discuss anarchy. What "defines" it? To what degree? Good? Bad? What about authoritarianism, the flip side?

Epic gunboat.
http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=45127
this is by far the best gunboat game i've ever played. Guessing France's orders and helping him all the way till 17 SC's. When there was no sign he would draw, I switched sides and forced a stalemate. It was epic.

Getting to know the PBEM Diplomacy Community
In recent days, we have had some vibrant discussions on various threads about our community compared to the PBEM community. In that light, I wanted to share a few emails I received that might be useful for some others, both in shedding light on other communities of Dip players and to provide us with ideas to even further improve our own.

diplomacy on risk-board
hey people, i would like to play diplomacy with my friends, in real, not online... and we never want to play diplomacy with 7 people at the same time. so i think it is not worth to buy the game, but i have risk and i thougt it would be possible to make a variant on the risk-board (without chancing the board, i could try it with aresible things)

Draugnar told people he was leaving the forum.
Draugnar emailed the mod account saying he was leaving the site completely and had set his password to a random collection of characters (something he clearly hadn't!).
I banned/unbanned and returned his point to set all his games into CD.

He returned to show off

I suppose on a site where thousands of people each spend countless hours moving imaginary armies across Europe for the goals of proving themselves to be the best liars, mentally superior, or just the joy of stabbing someone in the back... a small amount of mental instability must be expected.

WHAT VILLANY IS THIS?

Alas, poor Draugnar! I knew him, hellalt and Co., a fellow of infinite jest and outrageous bombasity: he hath led me on tirades a thousand times, and now, now how absurd in my imagination he is, my lunch rises at it...here stand those words that have made me pissed I know not how oft. Where be your jibes now, your comebacks, your boasts? your flashes of insanity that made dwarfed even my rants with such senseless roar? Everyone now, mocks you, grinning? Quite hack-fallen? Now get you to mapleleaf's chamber and tell him, let HIM prepare to make me sick, to this favor he must mow come; he WILL laugh at that...

(This is what you get when you finish watching Branagh's long version of "Hamlet," stay awake 24+ hours on cup after cup of cafeinne, join the Christmas rush, and come back to fine this little bit of news...of course, you have to be insane to respond like this, but as Octavious just mentioned, in a game where the goal is to backstab and conquer Europe and in a forum with Americans and Englishmen and folks from all over devoting time to such drama and debates...well, Polonius thinks he's found the source of Hamlet's lunacy--but it wasn't Ophelia or a dead father that drove Hamlet mad...he was an original member of the site, doncahknow, just ask King Lear, er, kestas...heck, we've got the ghostly image of TheGhostmaker right before us!

And since I'm rambling more than usual and I really should get some sleep, the rest is silence...goodnight, sweet Draugnar, and flights of fools now sing thee to thy rest...though I shouldn't really be one to throw stones over foolishness--unless someone says "Jehovah," of cou--AAAAHHHHH!!!!!)

Jees, I've got to think that Draugnar is enjoying this attention immensely. Imagine, an entire thread devoted to Draugnar. Way to go Draugnar, I applaud you. You have found a way to manipulate every other narcissistic tool into talking about you! Quite a feat indeed.
I realize i shouldn't have a say in this, but after looking at some of mapleleaf's and draugner's posts i realize both of them are tools. It's kind embarrassing that the rest of us just fall in line and freak out when one attacks the other. I feel like both draugner and mapleleaf are ego-centric narcissists. I urge you people NOT to take either of them too seriously
Draugnar (0 DX)

The hack is a bug in the never expiring cookie. I see that when I got back in, the ban had been lifted, but I had actually set my password to something completely random from my laptop. However, the Droid let me back in as if I had never changed the password. I wouldn't mind testing the system from a banned state to see how the Droid handles that.
Draugnar (0 DX)

Figle, did I email the mode and ask to be let back in? Epic fucking fail, trip.

I bid you all adieu as my true intent was, and still is, to just play the games.
ava2790 (232 D(S))

Wait, what games? I thought banning you was to get you out of them. Also the cookie problem is known - it allows sitters to access accounts even after password changes.
figlesquidge (2131 D)
21 Dec 10 UTC
@trip: In fairness to him, no we didn't. However, as noted, I did unban him.
@Draug: I already know what happens thanks. As ava notes this is not a new discovery

@ mdrltc & caesariandiplomat: the only two narcissistic posts in this thread are yours. everyone else is just talking shit or running their mouth. only you two have taken an elitist stance. where did you guys get your phds?

Chrispminis (916 D)
21 Dec 10 UTC
As others can vouch, when Draugnar made the claim that he had "hacked" his way back in, my reaction was, "Why is he claiming a hack when he could have just used the password recovery option at the login screen?"

It was kind of funny that you emailed us telling you set your password to a random string when you can quite easily reset your own password from the login. =P

Great, I'll set one up then. Whoever wants in please either post here, or message me for the password - just to make sure the people on this thread get first crack at the spots.

It'll be a 24h turn, 10p buy in so almost anyone can play. And I'm thinking the name will be... To Hack or Not to Hack, with obligatory global postings from everyone about the funniest part of this farce. I'll set it to start in 2 days to give people time to sign up.

Oh and I'll be out on some errands now so I'll make the game, but I won't respond to your requests till I get back (don't be alarmed).
