Going on vacation, and have games open.... and no internet access while I am gone.
How do I leave, and let the game pause while someone is found to fillin?
I have just a couple that are worth pursuing! I have two where I am dominant, but just cannot finish the game.
What do I do? I'm sure I'm not the first has happened to. Thanks

Hypothetical question for y'all...
Is trying to browbeat a player in an anonymous ongoing live gunboat cheating by violating press rules or not? I'd love to hear the community's views on this.

What about adding the following functionality
"Survive with intact Nation" (it's not a win, but it's a SWIN). It's when you survive still having all of your home SCs.

President Clinton
I got to see the old guy speak today in support of Joe Donnelly (Indiana to-be Congressman I hope) and he hasn't lost much but, in his own words, he certainly has more yesterdays than tomorrows. My question is NOT political, keep that in mind, but I ask how much of an impact does an endorsement from such a political figure have on a race and should more politicians be looking to garner support from past Presidents?

Diplo-Topic: Recouping from a Stab
We all love a good stab, and we are all, admittedly, stabbers. Thus, you know everyone you play with is a lying bastard and a stabber. And yet, so many will never re-ally after a stab. Why? It's not like you *suddenly* found out Player X is a stabber, because we all are.

Just to Clear Things Up...
I hope you all understand that I am NOT a racist. Racism is an obsolete method of thinking. I am, by far, not obsolete. But if I say that certain types of people are better than other types of people, you all jump on me and call me silly names.
So quit it with the name calling. It's childish, guys.

Anti Gay-Marriage People...You Being "Silenced" =/= The Holocaust.
Every little case of someone feeling denied or persecuted =/= The Holocaust. You not getting your way and bemoaning it =/= The brutal destruction of Jewish businesses, language, culture, and the/ deaths of 6 million Jews. It is an INSULT To even draw the comparison, and appropriate the Worst Crime in Human History for YOUR own political ends...ESPECIALLY when Gays were killed with Jews as well. http://secular-europe-campaign.org/2012/10/uk-gay-marriage-nazis-and-the-disgrace-of-lord-carey/

Why Do So Many Englishmen do this?
Since we finished the Austrian discuss without someone crying, here is an English opening based one.

I am curious to know why, in gunboats in particular, England opens into Skaggerak in Fall 1901. All that does is provoke a French invasion, from my experience

Why do people always choose the shittiest Austria opening?
In most of the Dip games I see on here, Austria seems to usually open with A Vie-Tri or the far worse A Vie to Bud. Why, why, why??? Why not send A Vie somewhere useful like Gal, Tyr, or even friggin Bohemia? If Austria is so worried about protecting it's home centers, why not do a Hedgehog or support themselves into Galicia? Austria has several dozen opening moves at it's disposal, and it makes me baffles me to see Austrians consistently using these.

That's already developed though. Olive did it on vdip so it just needs kestas' nod of approval (he needs to.install it).

Hmmm, seems like the real work is in convincing kestas to put in the change made.
Alderian (2425 D(S))

I'm not sure how Oli's solution works. What I did was to always have the global chat visible, but read only during a nopress game, but then writable after the nopress game is over. And also adding a tab for the secret self channel with a label of "Notes". Was just a few tweaks.

Here is my tentative plan:

1) Have a meeting with prospective developers
2) Ask the community what changes they'd like to see
3) Implement some of those changes on our server based on what the devs think they can handle
4) Present the work to kestas and hope for the best.

We should probably start with Oli's code sans any custom scenarios. A lot of what people want, he has already accomplished and we could.put it through UAT testing on our server.

This is a thread for discussing how boring the Reinheitsgebot has made German beer. No variety whatsoever (would you like Lager or Lager?). No unique flavors. Americans, Belgians, and English all put Germany to shame these days.
