Back in the day...
Do you guys remember the first megathread? By that I mean the first to top 100 posts. I think it was about poltical alignment. Before that the 50 or 60 some-odd threads about historical figures playing diplomacy seemed huge, but not so much now.

Face-to-Face versus Online ?
Has anybody played both 'versions' of the game often enough to comment on the differences in play, i.e. in negotiations?
Do you find people are more likely to stab sitting miles away behind a computer screen?
Does it hinder negotiations to have to write in text without facing your friend/foe eye to eye?

Online Election Game
I'm not a big poster in forums. I usually have just enough time to do my moves before time runs out, so you haven't seen any messages from me here before. I am writing now because I would like to tell you about a new project I have recently put online. Inspired by the presidential elections this year I decided to set up a website about elections and create an online election game.

Too little too late I think:

Democrats 44.2% 223
Republicans 45.7% 267
Too close to call 48

No candidate got enough electors to win. The House of Representatives will have to decide if Republicans, who got the most electors, should be president.

Democrats 44.3% 268
Republicans 45.6% 270

cgwhite32 (1465 D)
28 Oct 08 UTC
Oh yes. I think that it would be very difficult to argue who won, as it would depend on who won the Representatives and Senate number of seats! Given I started out at a 350-56 seat disadvantage, I reckon I did pretty well.

I also only realised '3 times' meant you could use the same thing on three separate occasions in the last 2 turns.. Doh!

aoe3, what you do is you look at the poll results, and then choose actions to perform based on them, which cost money. You also need to fund-raise to get money for the next turn.
Baldur (342 D)
29 Oct 08 UTC
Wow I am amazed at the response. Sorry TheGhostmaker an old programming error. Did a < instead of a <=. It should be fixed now. The game will stay as a tie in the records, though. Good thing you made exactly 270 electors on the first try. *g*

The game is in development, so if you have anything you think should be done better let me know. Of course if you come across any more bugs do the same.

Thanks

baldur, how much of our money should we spend? roughly half?
when it states this aaction may be taken "1 time" does it me once in one state? or once only but in every state(if financially possible)?
Centurian (3257 D)
29 Oct 08 UTC
Spend all of your money, but buy up all your fundraising options. I think this increases your fundraising because those giving see results.
sean (3490 D(B))
29 Oct 08 UTC
spent 2.5 m...did nearly all of the finace options - one time each. moved in the polls well but this turn i have $200,000 to play with!
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
29 Oct 08 UTC
I don't think buying every fund-raising option works to give best funds. In my game with cg I started with that and got about 2 million. When I stopped and did one or two I suddenly got 3million all the way up to 5.7million.
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
29 Oct 08 UTC
Baldur, I aimed for exactly 270 electors, because that's a winning score :D Basically I had 267 the turn before so protected states that were mine but close, and went all out to get Vermont for the three extra points.
Stevelers (3084 D(G))
29 Oct 08 UTC
Is there a way to talk to your opponent on the Election site? That would be a nice addition, I think.
cgwhite32 (1465 D)
29 Oct 08 UTC
Agreed on that Stevelers. And does the 'home state' option give you a boost in that state?
Baldur - when you 'tag' states, they just come up as a list - any way that you could add the last turn's poll ratings in the actions area - would allow you to stop going back and forth.

Ghostie - just done my turn:
Results Party Percent Electors
Democrats 43.9% 152
Republicans 46.0% 334
Too close to call 52
Stevelers (3084 D(G))
29 Oct 08 UTC
This game seems a little biased in favour of the Republicans... California has gone Red in both my elections, despite me campaigning there heavily as a Democrat. :(

Downtime
I think we went down for a while, so I added 2 hours onto all the games. I'll post the response to the support ticket when I get it :-(

In a future version it'll detect when there has been downtime and delay processing, so no-one will miss out on turns. For now hope no-one missed out, apologies if you did

What's your favorite country to play and why?
I like Germany, because of the variety of options you have as a player. Obviously its central location can be problematic, but with the right use of diplomacy it can be a very adaptable, flexible country that can benefit from any combination of weak/strong countries around the board, as long as its player is adequate.
