This game is going to need a new Germany
The game was paused for the xmas break, but one of the players never came back to unpause. We're probably going to get a mod to unpause so we can continue - does anyone want the German position? It's not great, but also not over yet.

Can someone please explain exactly what meta-gaming is. So that the older players like me will understand. Sometimes I'm involved in a game and two countries act very peculiar.

Is Webdip skimming/scamming??
Where's my missing point GDI?

I just noticed this on a brand new game with no turns played yet:

"Bet: 30 D, worth: 29 D
3 supply-centers, 3 units"

How can that be? I bet 30 D but I'm only worth 29? Is this some kind of Madoff?

Where did my extra point go? Is some admin getting rich off of a corrupt webdip point skimming scam?

Total and complete BS!

The extra points are taken from the weaker countries (Austria, Italy, Turkey) and assigned to Russia, who by virtue of starting with four centers is worth more than any other country on the board.

"...not sure if troll or just being stupid."

Sorry jmo (AKA "Mr. Lahey") but these are not mutually exclusive designations which just goes to show your sad pathetic attempts to assert your mod authority do nothing but expose your compensatory inadequacy to the world. Go back in your trailer with your cheap whiskey and stop trying to be cleaver.

"He also believes firmly in global warming. Just sayin'.... :P"

Saying that I "believe" in global warming implies some kind of religious faith. That is at least misleading. Yes, I am convinced by the empirical evidence that there is a general trend toward global warming at the present time. This is possibly influenced by human activity.

But what you failed to mention about my position, which I have repeated here several times, is that, in the big picture, global warming may be a good thing. Yeah, I know its bad for most humans of the current epoch, especially in Miami and Bangladesh, BUT it is only slightly correcting the cooling trend that has been going on for 3+ billion years. This cooling trend has lead to several recent "ice ages," and if it were allowed (without our global warming) to continue unabated, it can end only one way: Snowball Earth.

So yes I believe in global warming, and I support it. So piss off.

How did we get from WebDip point calculations to global warming? Are you afraid that kestas is burning your stolen points and contributing to carbon emissions?

I always judged online communities to be more liberal... Has this site gone republican in my absence?
Also Dirge, if you took the time to look up and down to see that Russia had increased worth, then a bit more to see that he had more SC, this question would be avoided...

A year old
I can't believe it's been a year since I've joined. It's been fast, but I feel like I've been here longer on this site than just a year. I like it here, and I will remain here for a very long time.
So, I want to hear other webdiplomacy members stories of the past and how much has changed.

Resign votes
It's been suggested often that there should be an option for players to concede their games without going into civil disorder and ruining the game for the others. Here's a mechanism that I think would be elegant, and not very difficult to implement. Suggestions welcome!

Ancient Med Map Bug
My game is http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=132706 and I am Rome. I have an army at Tarraconensis and a fleet in the Ligurian Sea, and both are adjacent to Baleares. The army is able to move to Baleares and so is the fleet, but when I go to support one unit in with the other, it does not let me. Specifics are in my reply.

This game is a travesty gameID=126952
@anlari -- As Italy you were really a jerk in this game. Have the balls to announce ahead of time that you are going for 34 centers ... don't just string the game out for 20 game years toying with your opponents who are playing by the normal rules. I wish there was a way I could ensure that I never end up in a game with you again.

I have been and still am taking French for a few years in high school, but it's piss poor. I'm thinking about setting up a French-only game where I can enjoy a little Diplomacy while immersing myself in the language for a few minutes a day.
