Game of Champions update:
The original thread about this 500-point game has dropped off the end, I thought people might like to see how things are progressing. Surprise surprise, Rait is winning..!

Russia dropped out, which was useful for me but not really for the game as a contest. It's a shame we could only start with 6 players too, which was useful for Rait!

diplomacy therapy
this is a little space where diplomacy players can share their feelings and thoughts about their traumatic experiences in the game.

are you feeling vulnerable? insecure? paranoid? too many scars on your back? or are you waking up in an anxiety attack of how a fellow player who you trusted dearly to the extreme that you even thought about the possibility to leave your children with him a night...could had betrayed you so hard and even 3 or 4 times in a row?

share your feelings; cry if you want to; lets share a cibernetic hug of comadery.

you REALLY can trust us.

Not enough drivel
There's a severe shortage of activity on this here forum. Where are all the public shaming of other users, arguments about what constitutes meta-gaming, questions that have been asked again and again and are in the faq and the vitriolic responses to them?

More than one user on a network...
I've got a colleague who would like to play on the same work network as me, do we need to inform any admin in order for us not to be flagged as multis? Or does this work on more of a trust basis?

I wouldn't have such an issue if it wasn't so obvious.

Poor winners
There's always the asshole who, when the game has been decided long ago, will position himself to maximize his supply centers, just so he can gain the most possible points...for WHAT?!

I declare SlkySmoothOtter to be a point whore, poor winner and hope to never play him again because of this.

I understand it's perfectly within his right, but it doesn't make it any less shitty. How many more times will I have to enter orders for a game that's been over three turns ago.

Differences between the judge and standard Dip rules
Are these differences set out anywhere, as the judge doesn't behave like the normal rules and a number of things have happened in my game that shouldn't have happened...?

game : counter:strikers
hi everybody...i just joined this game http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gid=2053

i'm playing france; in the first turn england asked me english channel as dmz, and i agreed, and an alliance, i also agreed to that one...in the meanwhile italy asked me not to enter into piedmont, and a mediterrean peace, i confirmed...three of the players didn't move , england and italy backstabbed me , england saying that the other two players (germany and italy) are allied against me and he can't ally with me( ain't that stupid?)
it's an unplayable game :(

can't we do something against no-playing-players? losing the double of the points for example? they make the game unfair

Green players spoiling the game....
I was in a game when 5 of the other 6 were of a group of boys, and that they were all very green to this game. Among them, only one know how to play this game (sort of, and the other 5 are simply wasting time doing silly stuff, like allowing others to get the SCs around them, then after they left if dead empty, never thought of taking it....and moving around stupidly..........I feel a real waste of time, so mind you all that these ppl can indeed spoil games......

i was wondering; if diplomacy takes so long with just europe, does that mean that playing with th world map does one has to register to the game compromising to end the game for about 6 years? ;0)

Haha, well even in the offical Diplomacy, several countries have simply ceased to exist, or merged to form larger regions (eg. Livonia).

This would be a VERY ambitious undertaking, and will probably not get any serious thought until all this site's major goals have already been fulfilled.

There are a very large number of variants out there. Some use 31+ players and are supposed to be played face to face...

The mind boggles at the logistics.

Imperial Diplomacy, 14 man variant I believe is my personal favorite.

01 Nov 07 UTC
As Chrispminis said I want to get everything relating to standard Diplomacy just right before adding variants, and as with everything I want to do it in a way that new users won't be bewildered by options.

This is way off though, inconceivably far off, because there's so much to do before 1.0, and the latest web technologies are a moving target now more than ever.

One problem with global diplomacy is the distance between certain countries (obviously).
Another thing to take into account is the technology. If you could fight and win on a global scale, presumably we have some kind of aerial warfare as well as naval and ground fighting, which would complicvate the rules massively.
SamFlagg (100 D)

Actually the Imperial variant still uses just land and sea. Rules wise its very simple, you've got Major powers and minor powers, IE Britain Starts with more units, but they are spread across the globe in their empire. The ottoman empire on the other hand starts completely contiguous . Different countries have vastly different styles, and frankly If you're a block power in Asia, you frankly don't give a damn if the CSA has taken the entire US.
