Catholic School horror stories
When I was in 4th grade I puked on the girl next to me in church during an all school mass. It was on her coat and in her hair. I think thats why she hated me moving forward. Pretty sure her name was amamda er something. Share your nightmares of similair nature.

Rules Question
"Furthermore, it is against the rules to make cheating accusations on the forum, even in cases where the user in question has been confirmed to own multiple accounts. The most frequent reason users create additional accounts is that they forgot the password to their original account."

How to bet 0 not taking over CD
You make two accounts, after one is banned, you ask the moderator to still play in the game with the second, so in effect taking over cd from yourself, it is allowed to do it on this site - example as a france http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=196322

@Captainmeme: I have some questions:

1. What is an "SRG" ?

2. Why are you setting up game boards for communication AND QuickTopic threads for "special" communication? Why not do it all via QuickTopic since that's being used for part of the comms?

3. There are 21 players divided into 3 tribe groups. Why 6 game boards, and not just 3? What are the other 3 for?

4. Regarding immunity idols, it says: "If, during any phase, more than 2 immunity idols are played on the same board, they will have no effect but will still be used up."

Does the phrase "have no effect" mean that if two idols are used, they BOTH fail to work - or does it just mean that the second idol fails but the first one does take effect? FOR EXAMPLE: I use my immunity idol to protect Bo_Sox. Bo_Sox uses his immunity idol to protect me. The GM gets my order first. The majority vote in that phase is on Bo_Sox. Is Bo_Sox protected by my idol, or does his subsequent use of his own idol cancel mine out?

also to add on it says on the google doc that the moderator should be able to make people leave without effects to their stats and insert dummy accounts. Do we have that instated in this game?

1. Special Rules Game. It is the term used for game boards which are being used for something that isn't Diplomacy.

2. This is to make it clear who you can/cannot communicate with, while keeping your Tribe's public chat hidden from other tribes. Game Boards are for communication with other individuals in your Tribe, the QuickTopic threads are for communication visible to all other members of your Tribe.

3. There are initially 3 game boards, then those are cancelled and two new game boards are set up at the first Tribal Merge, then those are cancelled and one last one is set up at the second Tribal Merge. Therefore, there are six boarda total, but only a number equal to the current number of Tribes will be in play at any one time.

4. It's 'More than 2' so in your scenario both yourself and bo_sox would have immunity unless someone else also played an idol.

Answering your question though, if more than 2 idols are played, *all* have no effect, regardless of the order they were played in.

5. Thanks for reminding me, I need to take that out. The mod team denied permission to use the dummy accounts, so eliminated players will stay on the game boards until they are cancelled, you just will not be allowed to communicate with them.

The game will start on Tuesday, so the day after tomorrow. I'm debating on whether to go with 11pm BST or 12pm BST as the start/phasing time.

Tribes have already been determined and invites to the communication boards will be sent out some time prior to actual gamestart. Communication will not be allowed until the game has officially begun.
