Learning to play with the labmate

Hello everyone,

I have finally convinced one of my friends at lab to start playing Diplomacy after he heard me do nothing but talk about and yell in an almost foreign language about my games at a conference.

Constant double posting of messages

Pretty much this. It seems to happen especially when I send a message, stay on the messaging screen, then refresh it a bit later. Whatever my last message was sends again. This is of course in-game messaging, not forum posts.

How do takeover results affect Ghost Ratings?

Is a win, draw, or loss resulting from a takeover counted any differently for Ghost Rating calculations? On the flip side how does a cd affect the Ghost Ratings of those individuals?

Diplomacy at TempleCon

If you're looking for some F2F tournaments in the New England area, TempleCon in RI is the first of the year from Feb 5-8. Tournaments are an excellent way to be introduced to the F2F hobby and are a ton of fun. If you've never played F2F before, I highly recommend you give it a shot. More info can be found here: http://templecon.org/15/. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to put you in touch with the right people.

Little league gunboat series

Since I only had enough points for Yaleunc's gunboat series if buy-in was14 points or less I'm starting another series for us folks that don't have many points available.

Games will be WTA gunboat, 24 hr phases. Readying up strongly encouraged. Games will run concurrently and there will be 7 games. No country reshuffling. 14

buy-in, so you can join with 100-ish. I expect people with at least a few games played and high reliability. Signup below.

Her Name Was Leelah

And yet Leelah's parents insist on using male pronouns even after her death that she directly stated was THEIR FAULT. I don't understand how parents could possibly be so ignorant as to disrespect their own child like this.

Issue with the new "Preview" feature big map

I know that the stand-off X's on a regular big map are often not accurate (and that issues with the big map aren't related to the order resolution code; see threadID=494283) but I'm surprised to see the stand-off X's turn up in random places in the big map of the "Preview" feature. Why would they show up for no reason?

Thanks to everyone involved, it was a great series and if you want to do it again I will be willing to participate.

That solo really hurted me. Seems my destiny on gunboats is to be the runner up. Twice in the GB tournament and now on this series.
