California Wildfires
Applying the same logic a couple people used during the hurricanes, we shouldn't feel sorry for those impacted by the wildfires because they are rich and are stupid for choosing to live in areas at great risk for wildfires.

Questionable behaviour in gunboat?
Hi,
I'm wondering what constitutes reasonable grounds for suspected cheating/multi. I'm in a gunboat game where nothing seems to be proceeding logically, but one player in particular seems to have thrown all reason to the wind, apparently with the express intent of screwing me over. At what point does suspicion of cheating become reasonable? What happens if those suspicions are confirmed after the game ends?

A question on WebDip map variants
Hi. A while back, I happened to spectate a game with a map variant I hadn't seen before. It was, if I recall correctly, a map of the world in 1066... or 841. One or the other. So, my question is, how can I start a game with one of these variants, as the one I saw wasn't on the list of different playable maps.

Why are bleeding heart liberals struggling at diplomacy?
My ghost rating is around 800. I am going to mass apply anecdotally that all liberals are therefore as abysmal as me at this game.

What other online turn based games might I enjoy...
....based on my liking for Diplomacy. Iam looking to expand my range. Nothing massively complex, "live" or requiring Gauntlets of Dexterity, just interesting, challenging turn based games which may run over an extended period. Any suggestions? Cheers all Verming

Is it the lack of intelligence? Ego over practicality? Naive self-interest? Inability to understand other perspectives? Poor social skills? Or some other factors?

On-going Tournament Series
I am interested in GMing an ongoing (for fun) tournament series based on the class system of fighting sports. Is anyone interested?

CommanderByron (801 D(S))

My thought is that we will use GR to determine weight class.
Heavy Weight - Top 250 GR
Cruiser Weight- Top 750 GR
Light Weight- Top 1500 GR
Feather Weight- All others

Since the tournaments would be short but consistent (like matches in fighting sports) we will use the Townsend scoring system. http://www.diplomacy-archive.com/resources/ftf/fred_townsend.htm

This should balance and account for discrepancies in country assignment.

My intent is to have 3-4 matches at any given time.
Powow (697 D)

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Jvl3aj7r9Ay1Icdm0qvz6aCf7bduLmGc587O7g_i_HQ/edit?usp=sharing

This is what i got so far, this will keep track of participants. Participants may feel free to host "unsanctioned games" all unsanctioned games must be non-anonymous and all players must be participants. When a unsanctioned game is complete send the result to me in PM and I will add it to the tracker.

Sanctioned games will be organized in a variety of ways; eventually relying completely on the tracker.

The following dates are major events:
"Diplomania" January 1st - All tracker data deleted and all titles vacated.
"Juggernaut in June" June 1st- All tracker data deleted and all titles vacated.

I hope to eventually open up titles in variants:
Ancient Mediterranean Title
Modern Diplomacy Title
so on.

But for now:
Heavyweight Title
Cruiserweight Title
Lightweight Title
Featherweight Title

@uber- I am thinking of using the All-time GR; however that isn't set in stone and I may use the monthly GR. We shall see

Do you want us to just add our info to the spreadsheet you posted if we are interested?
CommanderByron (801 D(S))

No I’ll add once I get some interest. After we get the first few people I’ll sanction the first game.

GR I am thinking we will use the most up to date month. (However if this becomes to much work for me well use All-Time and I’ll adjust every other month. )
CommanderByron (801 D(S))
03 Oct 17 UTC
If you are all interested we can have our first Sanctioned match. It will be:
HeavyWeight - HamiltonBrian
CruiserWeights- Powow , YanksFan47
LightWeights- ubercacher16, Deeply_Dippy
FeatherWeights- TooCoolSunday , Heywood Jablowme

The game will be classic, 24HR phase, FullPress, Unranked, HDV. This is to get some points on the board. PW sent shortly
CommanderByron (801 D(S))
03 Oct 17 UTC
Actually we will have to wait for a 7th. Heywood Jablowme only has 4 dip points and minimum for game creation is 5.

I would prefer 48 hour+ phases please.
CommanderByron (801 D(S))
04 Oct 17 UTC
We will take anyone. (Best way to see this is like a webDip club. Encouraging activity and okay. )

And most definitely we can do 48 if that is preferred.
Isn't the point of having divisions so you don't have heavyweights fighting featherweights? Though I presume this is more of a provisional match
Heywood Jablowme just got his hands on a little coin - sorry for being short
CommanderByron (801 D(S))
04 Oct 17 UTC
@Vashta- some sanctioned matches may include mixes. The weight classes will be for title matches and tournaments. Other matches can be mixed as it will encourage newer and older players to play together and thus teach and learn respectively.

How to protest the right way?

Apparently being peaceful isn't ok. But exiting a stadium early as a sign of your rejection of the protest is an acceptable protest.
