Kestas, in the game http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gid=1946. France hasn't played in a long time and I have 18 SC's in the Autumn retreat phase when u added a week to the games. Id appreciate it if you just ended the game or pushed it forward to the next turn so we can end the game.
Thanks

hi, I'm playing this game "world12", and everytime I try to get into it, it goes nuts. Could someone tell me what to do?

Most of the players are still AWOL, with only two of us moving. I mean, picking up some points for a dead game would be fun, but I'd rather have the whole thing deleted and just get my bid back.

It has been idle for the last 2-3 hours at "due now"

How do i join private games? because i cant find the games in the games menu and it says x amount of private games not listed here.

Use SQL Server instead!

Come join I can't stop playing it and you only need 15 points to enter but that doesn't mean this game is easy or anything

Has anyone else experienced significantly longer loading times between pages in the past week? I've had to wait 15-20 seconds on numerous occasions when loading a game screen, switching dialogue screens within a game, and opening a forum thread. In addition, I've had it time out several times. This has happened logging in from home, from work, and from school so I'm pretty sure it's nothing on my end.

please, join the game "May The Best Man Win"... it only needs 4 more players!!!

Kestas, how long before the server is running well again?
If not soon, please would you stop time-based turns for a bit?

16 times I've tried to get into my "Why Turkey?" game and got a 500 internal server error. Turn ends fairly soon, no idea what to do about it but I'm going to bitch and complain anyway!

I am playing this game, but about at 100 minutes left, I CAN NOT finalize moves neither mail to other players....

2 hour in this situation..everybody finalized...but nothing?

Hi all! I was wondering... Is it possible to win a game with Rait and anlari in it? It seems that they can lost only if they are France - Russia. Then is too hard to cooperate. If someone knows how to beat them when they are playing with different countries I would really like to hear about it... Thanks in advance.

Everyone who knows what this is and what it refers to will understand the below passage which accompanies this game.

It is a new year. Each team is struggling to capture the bowl. Will the "traditional" winner retain the cup, or will the enemy (D~~) overthrow the long legacy of our victory?

Diplomacy is the latest event in the Bowl. It is also the last event. Whichever team wins this will secure the bowl for themselves.

Let loose the dogs of war!

Password- which school won it last year? short form no capitals.

Hello, there was a post about this but it's off the main page now.

The game "War of the Worlds " is not going anywhere. The board hasn't changed colors for days (one week). This is getting really boring.

If this hasn't been suggested before, there should be some option for the game creator to define a maximum number of turns in which the game can be in the same status. This would pressure everyone that wants to win to actually try and win, and not only make the same moves which they know that are going to work and wait until someone gives up and that person's country goes in civil disorder.

Why start that many new games where you both joined?

Flynn here. just started a game for anyone to all. If interested, email me, will send pass

I was attacked and defeated in St Petersburg. I had a fleet. There are no units coming into or leaving either the Barents Sea or The Golf of Bothnia. I was on the North Coast. I should be able to retreat to the Barents. Instead I have to disband. Perhaps I missed this glitch before, but I would appreciate some clarification or conformation that this is a chronic glitch in PHP.

Eärendil and I entered a game for 100 points each. Five players signed up around the same time and all bet their first 100 on our game. We figured we'd tell Kestas and play our first turn without a witchhunt.

In Spring 1901 Eärendil, jjjj and I moved, and the four others did notthing.

The game's janked, whether it's a five-account multiplayer or something else. E and I would like our points back. We'll start a 101-point game next time.

... you have dreams about a particular position.
... you bore to death friends and family explaining in details about moves, players and backstabbing of a game.
... the 1rst thing u do when you turn your PC is too see if your orders you gave last night work at all.

I have been researching the Game Theory as part of preparation for my Cambridge interview (wish me luck) and found out that there are a lot of parallels and places it can be applied to on Diplomacy (among other things).

How and why, I dare not attempt to explain, but I think these two websites provide the material required to learn about it enough to draw the obvious parallels:

http://www.stanford.edu/class/symbsys150/autonomous-decisions-5-1.html (description of basic game theory)
http://www.gametheory.net/ (Game theory in depth)
http://www.gametheory.net/News/Items/019.html (Very interesting application of it, might be offensive for conservatives though)

I just thought it was quite interesting in this context. I think game theory could easily be used to explain/predict/create strategies in the game (which is why I'm making a mistake by allowing you all to learn about it)
