Dune!
A world game started getting overrun with Dune talk between myself, Draug, and Dunecat, so I'm taking it out of there and in here.

MVP of the NFL
So who's the MVP so far? Aaron Rodgers? Personally, I think its Peyton Manning. I dont think it can be stressed how valuable he is that a team that wins 11 games or more for the past decade cant win a single game without him. What do you guys think?

Programming Suggestion
I would like to see a bit of code added that automatically turned in an order for players who had zero SCs at the beginning of the build phase. Too many times have I seen build phase draw out because the guy who just lost doesn't put in the order for the destruction of his final units. Seems unnecessary.

Teach a group of high school students to play Diplomacy, akin to SoW
I am a high school teacher, and we have a Diplomacy club. We are going to start an online game, and I was wondering if there are people interested in walking them through the game.

hey i only have 14 D right now because i have so many in play, but i really get what im doing and since my histery teacher introduced me into this game i would love to help other kids learn this game, and to love it as much as i do. so count me in or pm me if you need me!

No offense to anyone who volunteered but I rather take the best I can. I don't know you Diplomat but there should be some penalty for meta and multigaming. So at this point, I will have to postpone your offer. I hope you do not take offense.

YJ, if you are okay with it, you can be the substitute if I can't garner anymore support for this over the next couple of days.
I was thinking of having seven mentors (I don't mind getting one; I like talking about strategy and tactics) so that if my students can get it together, I will sit out this game to allow one more to learn.

So far:
Stany (any)
Spells of Wheels (any)
Draungar (E, F, I)
TB (F, I, R, A, T)
Eden (any)
Yellowjacket (substitute; any preference?)
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))
20 Nov 11 UTC
hmm sly you've never won and you quit 1 in 5? Not exactly an impressive stat...
Tru Ninja (1016 D(S))

I'll help out, if you need it.
Draugnar (0 DX)

damian (675 D)

Zultar,
I helped out a sub for school of war for a while, apparently I did a good job with that.
GR 31...

Now I don't have the time I used to, to go about giving advice. However I would be glad to be a substitute, should any of the tutors need to take a break
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))
21 Nov 11 UTC
Sure, just send me a PM if you can't find anybody higher rated. I guess I feel competent to teach the basics of with nation, though I've drawn T and G more often than any other (haven't yet played FIAR, and only got E in a gunboat that ended in '02).

haha when I say that out loud I can see why you prefer more xp :P

Anyways, my tactics are sound and I think my diplomacy is much better than my experience would indicate.
zultar (4180 DMod(P))
21 Nov 11 UTC
Stany (any)
Spells of Wheels (any)
Draungar (E, F, I)
TB (F, I, R, A, T)
Eden (any)
Tru Ninja (any?)
Damian (sub)
Yellowjacket (substitute; any preference?)

I think we just about have it. I will talk with my students. Thanks in advance.
Tru Ninja (1016 D(S))
21 Nov 11 UTC
TN (any) is fine. I tend to be weaker with Turkey, though and stronger with England and France.
I would love to help out. While at home my access is spotty, but during semesters I'm on all the time and would be able to have some time to mentor. I prefer (E,G,T) to anything else (I've yet to play a decent Italy, Austria, or Russia in a high skills game :/ )
zultar (4180 DMod(P))
26 Nov 11 UTC
Final list for the game that will start on Tuesday 11/29, 48 hours phase, WTA

Stany (Turkey)
Spells of Wheels (Russia)
Draungar (England)
TB (Italy)
Eden (Austria -haven't seen anyone played Austria as well as he does)
Tru Ninja (France)
goldfinger0303 (Germany)

Damian and YellowJacket will substitute as needed.

I will set up the game, but I will drop out if I can get seven students to play. Please contact your student as soon as you can.

oh my.. i think i will start a club in my school as well. haha.
I think Jacob would do a much better job than me, zultar.

And shiit, I have Tru ninja as a neighbor? My pupil died the last time I had Tru ninja as a neighbor.....killed by tru ninja's student
zultar (4180 DMod(P))
27 Nov 11 UTC
Tru Ninja, you are NOT allowed to assassinate others and then let your "student" claim the kill. :)
@goldfinger, tough deal for you. I suggest you suggest to your student to take Burgundy.

Well, sorted by GR, I think I am going to ask Jacob to replace Stany.
So:

Jacob (Turkey)
Spells of Wheels (Russia)
Draungar (England)
TB (Italy)
Eden (Austria -haven't seen anyone played Austria as well as he does)
Tru Ninja (France)
goldfinger0303 (Germany)

Subs: Stany, damian, and YJ
Tru Ninja (1016 D(S))
27 Nov 11 UTC
lol goldfinger and zultar. rhinoceros did a really good job playing Italy. Plus, I only go after the TA's :)
Just send out a link to the game once its up
I thought about responding, but realized it might make zultar wipe out " -haven't seen anyone played Austria as well as he does" from the list, so I didn't say anything. Austria's cool by me.
...DAMMIT DON'T WIPE IT OUT :(
zultar (4180 DMod(P))
28 Nov 11 UTC
I will post the link once people have joined.
And PE, you've gotta be nice to me in the next game or I will erase it.
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 Nov 11 UTC
Just let me know when the link to the game is up and Spring 01 is starting so I can contact the English player and help him not die too quickly. I've no doubt Eden's student will win this one.
So we are all agreed...everyone in the East jumps Austria in 01.
Tru Ninja (1016 D(S))
28 Nov 11 UTC
For the record, the French are ok with that.
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 Nov 11 UTC
Great big pile-on at Austria. I feel sorry for that student. :-)
zultar (4180 DMod(P))
28 Nov 11 UTC
Hahaha, my secret plan to put Eden in his place is working perfectly. Austria will be the first one to go and we'll all draw. :)
No! The Germans shall come to aid our Austrian brethren!

Alabama or Oklahoma St.?
Which one deserves to get the second spot in the nat'l championship? Both are 1-1, oklahoma state has a conference title and more wins against ranked opponents, but alabama plays in a tougher division and had only lost to the no. 1 team, LSU. What do you guys think?

New 'variant' suggestion
A gunboat variant where you could see who had joined but did not know who played each country. That would allow you to screen who you played with and could avoid obvious cheating red flags. Just a thought.
