Easy on the pocket game...New and points-starved players welcome

Is there ever a time when intentionally bouncing yourself would be a good strategy to confuse people you are playing with? If so what sorts of situations would be appropriate for that?

Just curious

Kestas, you are doing an excellent job moderating this site, and currently, in my opinion, this is the premier online Diplomacy site. I do think, however, that giving the creator of a game the option to set country preferences would give the game a new dynamic. This change would of course mean first-come, first-serve. I find that often players constantly receive the same country/coutries and this can lead to monotony(me-The German powers). Please consider this change.

I would like to know if there any system that defines the country that each player plays in a game. I mean, I played many times Italy and I got a bit bored. Also, I have yet to play a game with Turkey which is my favourite.

Is it just luck? Or is it connected with you DP or any other factor?

CJ 92(Sioraf as Killeens) is the most frequent poster on PlayDiplomacy.com and Sicarius is the most frequent poster on PHPDiplomacy.com so I thought it would be interesting to see who people prefer. This is not a popularity contest,this is an opinion poll by the way. Please read posts from both users before deciding.
1. Sioraf/CJ 92

I posted in a thread a bit ago, but it was displaced, and has vanished into the wastelands. Not that I have time *now*, but if I did, how would I help the board?

Autumn 1929

was there longest game?

I know that, according to the rules, the unit should be disbanded if no retreat order is entered, but does it work the same way on this site?

If you have a unit on the south coast of spain, going to mid-atlantic, and an enemy unit is trying to go from mid-atlantic to north coast of spain, can they switch? If the south coast of spain unit is supported, and displaces the mid-atlantic unit, can it retreat to north coast of spain?

You've procrastinated long enough. You want to play or what?
Register now or be crying into your beer all year about what could have been!

Hi Guys,
Given the finite number of sc's and only 7 major powers, there has to be some sort of closure on all the possible games in diplomacy, i wonder what is the maximum possible number of practical diplomacy games. Practical considering that all 7 powers are played by 7 different reasonably logical people.

Come one, come all. Big money, winner takes all.
Very slow play so you don't have to check up on the game every day (and can skip weekends if you need to). Serious players wanted (none of those namby pamby players that drop out after 1902).

(Summary) Where should the world get its energy from?

I accidentally took over a game "Durango 95-Purring horrorshow". I just was clicking around and clicked the wrong button by accident. The game is currently paused, so can I be taken off the game and my points restored?

Brittle, hard to work with; a.k.a. W; a.k.a. Dubya (Lame Duck). Pound your friends into shape until Obama replaces him. Celebrate with another in the Elements of Diplomacy series. You once voted for W? Find another game.

Is it possible to pull me/the three ones out of the game?

If a country is Supported in its Hold, but this country attempts to move (and bounces) it still can be dislodged by 2 attackers?

Picardy (army) support holds Belgium (fleet) which support holds English Channel (fleet). If Belgium is attacked, support hold to Eng Channel does NOT get cancelled correct?
