Gunboat - Potentially dumb question
How are gunboat rules enforced? I don't see any option when creating a game for making a gunboat game, so what stops people from communicating?

Can a moderator please pause this game?
http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=9023

Turkey was away for a few days, everyone voted for a pause except Germany, who is away but didn't CD yet. Turkey is now back (and lost rumania in his absence), but we'd like the game to be paused anyway because Italy's getting a baby, which sounds to me as a pretty convincing reason to pause the game. Can a mod please pause this game? Thanks.

Should there be a limit to the amount of games you can join?
I'm in a game at the moment with a chap who's playing 15 (fifteen!) games in total, and both I and others in the game have noticed this has effected his ability to diplome. He says a few words to his direct neighbours and stays completely silent with his non-neighbours, and I and some other players have already discussed how this is effecting the game in a negative fashion. Should there be a limit to how many games people can join to make sure they have enough time to play the game properly?

When is the new League and Tournament starting?
I've heard 'March', 'Spring', and 'In a few weeks' - and they have all passed... but no forum conversation on the topic. also - how many points should I leave in reserve for each... thanks in advance for helping an eager dipper out.

yes im keen to go, been winding down and not joining new games because i want to save my time for them.
i think wonderllama is waiting for one last final gdft game to finish and ghost is also waiting for a final league game
flashman (2274 D(G))

Yep, one game left in each tournament: they are decisive so we cannot expect quick endings.

I am looking forward to the next rounds very much.

Can I start the diplomacy here? I mean, I am trustworthy.

So what are the buy-ins for the leagues and tournaments?
Xapi (194 D)
23 Mar 09 UTC
25 default, 5 if you ask for reduced buy-in.
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
23 Mar 09 UTC
It has been 25 default, however I am going to go for 5 default with a higher buy-in negotiable as being an easier option to manage.

"In a few weeks" was always deliberately vague.

Just another reminder, the you can use:

23 Mar 09 UTC
is there a sign up mechanism? beyond letting ghost know?
Babak (26982 D(B))
23 Mar 09 UTC
also - i'm a bit unclear... for the tournament, there is only one game right? (5pts) but for the league there are multiple games correct? how many games?

so in aggregate, how many points would I need to store up to enter the tourney and the league? thats the main question ;P
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
23 Mar 09 UTC
For the GFDT, it is 10 points per round, 5 for the final.

For the Leagues, it is 5 points per game, this season, 4 games

League sign up- email me
GFDT sign up- sign up when advertised (They start annually)

24 Mar 09 UTC
Ghost - I believe I emailed you just as 'thejoeman' and 'amonekeyperson' but I dont know if I got a difinative response... would you like me to email you again?

and wh ois running the GFDT again? and how can I get in touch with him (or her)?

ps. how many rounds in the GFDT? its one game per round right?
Wonderllama runs the GFDT. His email is in his profile. There are 2 simultaneous games running per round, except I suppose for the final round.
flashman (2274 D(G))
24 Mar 09 UTC
I too cannot access the GFDT site... (not loading properly).
thewonderllama (100 D)
24 Mar 09 UTC
GFDT site is borked along with several of my computers. :( Thankfully I have backups. Haven't had a chance to put them back up, but they will get up sometime today. Sorry for the trouble folks.

GFDT entries are accepted late summer/early fall and the tournament runs 3 rounds (although I could conceive of there being a 4th if there were sufficient demand). As TheGhostmaker said, buy in for all but the final round is 10 points (since each player is playing in two games) and 5 points for the final round (one game only).
Babak (26982 D(B))
25 Mar 09 UTC
wonder- can you put me on the list of people interested in the GFDT? would appreciate that... and I should expect the start to be around August then?

Head-on battles
I'm just wondering about a rule in Diplomacy. If I support move somewhere, and someone else supports move from that place to the place of mine that is moving, with equal support, do we both just not move, do we swap, or what?

Thanks!

Don't you hate it when there's that guy in a game that just screws up your plans for no conceivable reason? Maybe he won't speak to you, negotiate, or maybe they're an appeaser.

Newbie with a rules question:
Hi. I've noticed that you can only build new units in your original home supply centres. What happens if you lose all your home supply centres, but are still gaining territory abroad - are you prevented from creating new units unless you can re-gain your home SC's?
