New game starting in 5 minutes. 5 minute quick one.
After work diplomacy, any one? Surely someone else is avoiding work.

Ethics of replacing CDs
Would it be frowned on to find a replacement you know is pliable? In effect, is it okay to take the game into consideration in terms of your hunt for a replacement (or lack thereof)? I feel this is under-discussed, compared to, say, pauses.

Boycott News International
Do boycotts work? Should we boycott a pape and their sister papers and put in jeperdy the careers of innocent workers? Should we support advertisers pulling their adverts and protest against companies who don't pull their ads?

Game will start on next process cycle
How long is a 'process cycle' concerning a live 5 min/phase game?
I just ask because I joined such a game and ended up CDing against my will after waiting for 2 hours for it to start.

Diplomacy strategy articles?
I'm pretty familiar with openings... and general concepts for the mid and late game... and have read the articles available on these topics in the Diplomatic pouch (diplom.org) and the Diplomacy Archive (diplomacy-archive.com)... Where can I learn more about more specific strategies beyond the openings in 1901? Or, at least, where can I find more good articles beyond these two sources? Thanks!

Default settings when creating a game.
I'm sure it has been asked before, but humor me: why is WTA not the default setting for creating a game?

Hmm, so clicking it doesn't do anything? What browser are you using?

My PayPal address is [email protected] , so you could send it directly instead of using the button? There's no way besides paypal though unfortunately :( thanks anyway though

Hey Kestas good decision.
I just donated another 50 AUD (like I said I would if you decided to go with dedicated hosting).
For those of you who would like to donate the link on the top of the screen does not seem to work at the moment. However the "how can i help/can I donate" section of the FAQ *does have a working link* You can use PAYPAL or enter your credit card details directly.
Thanks for all your hard work Kestas.

The button should now be fixed, there was a missing close on a tag, thanks for pointing that out
Thanks to those who have donated so far, let me know if your account e-mail is different from your paypal e-mail because I'll be using those to look up who is who

@Kestas, shouldn't we do this for two reasons? WTA is truer to the game and we'll get $200 out of manganese.
I find it so funny how this thread is going to devolve into PPSC vs WTA...
dexter morgan (225 D(S))
16 Jul 11 UTC
one should not submit to rank bribery.
Though WTA is truer to the original board game - the game is already a different animal being online in the first place... so comparing it to the board game may not be the best comparison. For one thing, it is easy enough for an experienced player to select WTA or PPSC (and there are no shortage of players available for both styles)... the question probably should be more about what is most compatible with the play/interests of newbie players who might not see the option to change the default at first or might decide arbitrarily to go with the default. ...and I suspect that the answer would be PPSC.
Perhaps in order to raise funds we have a "PPSC fund" and a "WTA fund" and at the end of each week, whichever has more money donated to it gains control of the default option. It seems like such a hot issue to some people I'd imagine you could get millions.

Waffen SS
If it was August 1939, and you were a German, Aryan male aged 22 and were offered to join the SS (and you had no knowledge about what was to come) do you think you would have been smart enough to say no? Or would you have been sucked in by the lucrative notion of getting to wear that stylish uniform?

I Have An Honest Question Here...
This one's bugged me for a while, really, and I've just got to ask it:

If you believe God sent Jesus to die for our sins or that Jesus wanted to die for our sins and save us and all that...why? If he/they/both are God, ie, almighty, why not just "waive the debt," rather than self-mutilate? And why would either care at all? (and "because he loves us" is NOT a valid answer...somehow Hell + Pain On a Cross =/= LOVE to me...)
