Is the GOP Dying?
Amid yet another sign of a complete brainwashing scheme to throw out anyone with a half bit of independent thought, the GOP appears to be splitting. Where's the line, (when) are they going to split?

You idiots!
I'd like to point out to everyone on this website that is a Marxist (There are quite a few of them, though I've muted most), that it hasn't worked in the long run ANYWHERE. Soviet Russia, Cuba, France, Norway, Poland, Rumania, Czechoslovakia, Angola, Somalia--all places where Marxism existed for a long time, ended up worse off then they were before.

Close the damn prison Yankees. You're creating new enemies that all NATO countries will have to go fight again. The NRA is a much more dangerous organization now than Al Qaeda is. Move on.

policy question: game cancellation due to banned players
I know that if 2 players are banned in the same game the policy is to cancel the game after the players have been given an opportunity to draw it.

Normal Games?
Although I haven't been on this exact website very long, I've noticed that there aren't that many normal games anymore. I don't mean like classic, or world diplomacy or whatever. It just seems there are a lot of gunboat and winner-takes-all/no in-game messaging games. I'm not dissing those types because they can be fun. But diplomacy is about talking with people. I'm not dissing different types. I'd just like to know other people's views on this.

We will take everyone's vote into our decision. If there is a disagreement between tourney players and everyone else, Kestas will decide what to do.

Can the moderators please ban people who sign up for games and don't show up to play them?

A no-show totally messes up the balance of the game.

mobile app!
I think a mobile app for this site would be great. Notifications when people send messages or that a phase is almost finished would help games move along much smoother. I'm sure there are many more things that could be done on an app, maybe even everything, but that alone would be helpful. I don't know anything about programming apps, though, so someone get on it!!

Let's Try This Again...NEW GAME--Global Speak, 7 Players, 7 Different Forms of English!
So I tried to get this started a while back, before my brief hiatus...
But yes--I'd like to start up a game with Global Chat, and each of us will use a different form of English (ex. Southern US English, Cockney English, Middle English...I know someone was interested in Rastafarian English...I'd use Elizabethan-era/Early Modern English, etc.) so yeah...anyone, join up? Game is inside, PM me for the password.

The Star-Crossed Stars and Bars--Mere Symbol of the South or a Symbol of...THAT South
http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2013/04/why-accidental-racist-is-actually-just-racist/274826/ A little late to the party on this one, but I've been very busy with classes (hence my brief absence...anyone miss me? *crickets* LOL) but as we have quite a few Southerners here, I thought I'd ask--would you ever wear/display a Confederate flag, and just take it as a symbol of the South, or is that spoiled by some of it's possible negative connotations?

Civil disorder on saved moves?
If you save your orders but don't mark as ready and then time runs out, does civil disorder ensue? Or are saved orders carried out? Sorry if this answered somewhere in the rules section, but I could not find an answer.

If you save your orders, the game will not process until the full phase has passed. If everyone readies up, the game will process sooner. Either way, your orders will be processed and you will not CD.
Yonni (136 D(S))

No need to ready. If everyone readies, then the turn progresses immediately. Otherwise, it doesn't really matter if you ready r not.

Mapu (362 D)

I actually find Nigee quite entertaining and enjoy his posts a great deal. This was not one of his best, though, since there were three questions in the OP and only one ambiguous 'yes' as the reply.

The title of the post had a question too, wiseapple.
jimgov (219 D(B))
01 May 13 UTC
Well since three questions were asked and Nigee only gave one answer, and it was only correct for the last question, his "humor" kind of fell flat. And probably confused the poor sap that asked it.
ghug (5068 D(B))
01 May 13 UTC
The first question of the post merely reworded the question from the title more verbosely for clarification. The case for one question (the "or" bit isn't actually a separate question) is much more compelling than a case for 3.
Mintyboy4 (100 D)

Hey I have a question relating to this. I presume if you have entered all your orders but have not yet saved or readied them it will cause you to miss the phase. I'm talking mainly about a 5/ 10 min game. As often when playing I end up changing my mind after I have submitted moves, and I end up very quickly changing my orders right next to the deadline. But sometimes I fear that if I do that, I may not press save or ready in time and miss the phase entirely.

So basically, if the orders are input on the page, but you haven't ticked it yet. Is that always a missed phase. I presume yes, but I just want some confirmation.
ghug (5068 D(B))
03 May 13 UTC
Yes, but once you save your first set of orders, you're safe with that set even if you start editing. Your best bet is to input your first set of orders, save them, and then change if need be.
Alderian (2425 D(S))
03 May 13 UTC
In the scenario where you've put in an initial set of orders and saved them, and are then trying to decide whether to change them up and whether you have time to make all the changes that need to happen together, it works out pretty well. Make the mass changes you want, double check them, and click Save again. If it is too late, then none of the changes take place. If it is not too late, then all of the changes take place.

What can catch you up is if you have your initial orders saved, and then plan on changing several units and you change some, save, change the others, and then when you try and save you've run out of time.

Bottom line, when changing your orders, only save when you are happy with the orders going through as you have them when you click save. You may or may not have time to make further changes.
