Minimum players in classic game
Hi all, my first time creating a game on my own. Is there a way to set the game to only 4 or 5 players for a private game? I didn't see any option and it shows "game will start when all 7 players have joined" now. Thanks for any help!!

I really want to review all the messages I sent to someone, but the history logs appear limited. Are they just gone, or is there any way to see the full message logs with a player from a game?

Question concerning game rules (pms)
Hi there! I need a public and official reply by a MODERATOR.
If you play a match without anonymous players, but even without private chat (only team chat): Is it allowed to write the other players private messages in order to negotiate? In my opinion everbody see the names of the other players and everybody can write to the other players, so it is a fair system. It is a very important part of this game to negotiate, you know.
How are the official rules?

Should Capitol Police protection be extended to all members of Congress?
At the Scalise incident this morning, the Capitol police were present only because Scalise was there. Without them, the shooter would have had a clear field until Alexandria police arrived. Shouldn't the Capitol Police protect EVERY large gathering of Congressmen?

Cancelling a game
I've never cancelled a game before, but i'm wondering, if you cancel a game, will you get your starting coins back? Say you bid 10, will you get 10 back when you cancel? Also, what about if you take over a civil disorder?

I just finished up the second to last Known World game, http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=187834, on 36 hour phases, which we probably played a few years further than we might have for that honor.

Final Vote Tally
Group A
Goodfellas: 10
Beasts of No Nation: 1

Raging Bull: 4
Cool Hand Luke: 4

Group B
The Grand Budapest Hotel: 5
Kelly's Heroes: 3

The Graduate: 7
Moonrise Kingdom: 2

Group C
Spirited Away: 5
Girl with the Dragon Tattoo: 6

Fargo: 10
Aguirre: 1

Group D
LOTR: 11
Bourne Ultimatum: 3

Saving Private Ryan: 11
Deadpool: 2


I haven't voted this phase, so it's not really corruption to just bother to break the tie between raging bull and Cool Hand Luke. ##vote Cool Hand Luke because I enjoy it so much more than raging bull, and also #fuckHR.

That means that last movies to move on are Goodfellas, Cool Hand Luke, Grand Budapest Hotel, The Graduate, Girl With the Dragon Tatoo (A bit unexpectedly Spirited Away is really good), Fargo, Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and Saving Private Ryan.
GM NOTE: New thing about ties. If I haven't yet voted, I'll just break them. However if I have voted (mostly in the case of very few films) I'll open up the votes on that for a couple hours (usually until midnight EST) counting all votes on it, not sudden death. If they are still tied after that, then I'll break the tie. Hopefully that's a good enough compromise. If anyone has any suggestions aside from that feel free to post them.
