Does Empire4 (Fall of the American Empire) need to be balanced?
Unless most other Diplomacy maps, Empire4 is not very balanced and a few nations have severe disadvantages that make it very difficult for them to win while others are fairly overpowered. I can explain more if someone wants to ask.

Rival/hatred game variant
I'd like to play a game mode where each player is secretly given a unique rival (so no two players share a rival), and the only players counted at the end of the draw are those who have both survived and eliminated their rival. A solo doesn't need to eliminate their rival and rivals aren't necessarily symmetrical.

Unknown Player in Anonymous Private Game
I'm completely new to Diplomacy and this website. I made a private game and explained to my friends how to join my private match. Though only 2 people say they've joined, I have 3 anonymous players other than myself registered. Is it possible one of them joined twice? I know by the time stamps that it was one of the first two players who joined the game, the times are only a minute apart, and I am wondering if the small time frame is just a player joining twice.

Vale Hugh Hefner
Hugh Hefner dies at age 91. A controversial character, extremely successful businessman, championed some Liberal causes, gay rights, marriage equality, Native American rights, gave many authors a break, eg Alex Haley, but also it has to be said, contributed to the objectification of women and exploited women for financial gain.

[Suggestion] Alternate winning conditions
vDiplomacy has a way to set up "alternate winning conditions", e.g. to customize how many turns are played and/or how many SCs need to be conquered before a winner is declared. For example, we can have a game of Classic running for 14 turns (Fall 1907).

I think guak should propose whoever is gonna be president next so that we get some info on them.
YanksFan47 (150 D)

That part was a joke, Croak. As for everyone agreeing, it's stupid not to in the first turn. Only the fascists know who everyone is, so why would they give themselves away on turn one, and why would liberals vote no on someone, since they know absolutely nothing?

Croak is next Prez. He gets to nominate someone. ghug, are you suggesting guak offer his opinion on who should be next Chancellor? Also, might as well get that info from Ike.

Why is the order going backwards? We have a list 1-8. Why are we not going in that order? Clockwise counts up from 1 to 12....??????
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)
19 Sep 17 UTC
No, it's completely idiotic if guak is the next president. Count up like a freakin' wall clock.
ghug (5068 D(B))
19 Sep 17 UTC
I said it was weird at the beginning and nobody else cared. If you're sitting around a table, the person to your left is the next person clockwise. Condescension said that's the person below us numerically.
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)
19 Sep 17 UTC
So, the person below #1 is #2. guak is #8?
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)
19 Sep 17 UTC
I see Condescension's original post now that says "to the right" which is counter-clockwise. Clockwise really doesn't matter in a virtual game.

Can we just go down the list in order 1-8?
ghug (5068 D(B))
19 Sep 17 UTC
You don't understand what below numerically means, apparently.

It's weird, but it was established when the game started. Changing it now, or even discussing changing it now, might give info about which way people want it to go, which is problematic.
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)
19 Sep 17 UTC
Below is very poor word choice when talking about numbers. Less than is proper terminology.

Below when talking about a list, which is really what matters, is any physical slot underneath the item on the list. But whatever.

I think it's going to be silly and needlessly confusing to go "up" the list, especially after starting with #1.
ghug (5068 D(B))
19 Sep 17 UTC
I said below numerically. I didn't say below on the list. That's perfectly clear. Condescension was no less clear.

Why the hell are you complaining about this now instead of when I questioned it initially. Suck it up and play.

FFS WHY?
Why does online Diplomacy give me Germany to start with in every single game I sign up for?
Seriously, does it use region-based IP-checking? Because I'd really like to try out different countries and strategies.
And no, taking over Leavers doesn't count because you always get a losing position way past the point of getting a proper strategy rolled out (that's why the original player threw the game)
