It is a private game me and a few of my friends made because we cannot play in person now the school year has started. Others have played with us before so don't worry about meta-gaming. Send me a personal message for the password. Link below.

Anonomous games
I am too paranoid to have multi's or meta's in a game that I am joining that already has 3-4 newly joined players. If I make the game it's fine but they never fill lol. Tell me my level of paranoia lol this game is worse than how THC is portrayed.

Early phase change?
Did the system change to where if everyone finalizes, the next phase is automatically started? Even just yesterday I thought that even if all 7 players finalized, we still had to wait out the last few minutes (in a 5 minute/phase Live game).

Today on the Help->FAQs the topic about faster phases was removed and I saw something in there about how it would automatically end the phase early if everyone's finalized.

Strange Bug...
A few minutes ago I logged in and checked my in-game messages. I had three messages, clicked on the games, and read them all. Then I left and came back a few minutes and the envelope was there for the games again. I checked them, and it hadn't recorded that I had read the messages I read.

Maybe this is just a one time glitch, and if it is, I'm sorry.

"They can suck it"
In the press conference after Argentina's win over Uruguay, wich led to direct qualyfication to the 2010 World Cup, Argentina's coach, Diego Maradona, dedicated the victory to the players, his family, and the Argentinian people.

To his detractors, the message was clear: "They can suck it"

13 Oct 09 UTC
I reckon it would be worth everyone's while taking a breath, thinking about this for a day, submitting more complete thoughts on it, reading what everyone else suggests, and then having a decision made by one person.

Ultimately, the decision about how it works has to be made by the people who are going to run it, otherwise no agreement will ever be reached. I'm happy to help DJEcc24 make decisions if he wants, but this process of everyone thinking individual thoughts and saying them straight away, before we really have a solid basis, doesn't work.

Timing-wise: I'd say the best slot would actually be to wait until after the new year. This in particular gives a chance to perhaps get it made nice and official and reduce the work-load substantially.
DJEcc24 (246 D)
13 Oct 09 UTC
ok i will think over this since the ultimate decision is mine. i will post my decision on here what it will be tomorrow. or late tonight if i decide by then.

would a scoring system that runs up into the Thousands be alright?
denis (864 D)
14 Oct 09 UTC
How about this

420 TP for a win

In the case of a Draw 420/n players

As well as 10 TP for each SC with 180 TP maximum extra would be distributed by giving 10 D to each respective survivor

Example. If the winner takes 20 SC'she would recieve 180 TP second place survivor takes 10 extra and third get 10 as well any other survivors recieve their original amount
Wow, interesting to see all this talking while I was away and could not read it. Well, firstly, congratulation on your efforts to make the tournament happen, specially to th ghostmaker, whose suggestions are very well thought and wise.

Anyway, as it's been pointed out, individual suggestions fired at point blank won't exactly help the development of this idea. However, I feel obliged to defend the WTA system and whatever comes out of it.

And regarding anonymous games.. They should be really interesting. And if you organise the tournament in a way people from the same team can play together, and they do know they are in same game, the best player will prevail, and surely it will be interesting to see how the two members of the team behaved in the game. [Always assuming that people won't cheat; after all, Diplomacy is a game of gentlemen.]

To the useful part of the post... I believe it is quite possible to organize the Portuguese-speaking Team, and I reckon the portuguese-speaking community in here might get interested. Having that in light, just don't forget the we exist =D

I would like to get feedback on the scoring system
I'm a little out of time to see it now, Denis, I'm sorry. Tomorrow, though, I might analise it more carefully. It seems interesting at first glance,anyway. Either way, just the hours you guys are spending in thinking of it is already incredible/amazing.

+Scandanavia

each team will choose 5 people and each round will have three of those people playing regualr matches 1 public press and 1 gunboat. this way the teams have to be well rounded

Eastern Europe is ok if you have people from bul, rum, gre etc
but if you have more people from spa, por, fra, ita, gre then you should change it to Southern Europe
