Three supply centers, but with a friendly Italy and a guaranteed build in Budapest.

Please, for the sake of game balance, somebody take this over!

WTA vs PPS
It seems like alot of people dont like to play Winner take all games. But I find them to be truer to the spirit of diplomacy then Points per supply center. I was just wondering if I made a Low (30 point per person) point WTA game if anyone would be intrested

No, it's true. He was actually calling out other posters for being insensitive and bigoted as well as making good points and contributing to a debate. He's at least shown that he has the capacity to be a productive member of the community.

Honestly, I thought he would be smart enough to avoid the bad press that comes with being diplomat, but that's his cross to bear again. There are like three or four people calling to ban him. I don't think that counts as heeding the call of the citizenry. Even on personal non-mod terms I don't think he should be banned. He's dumb if he thinks he can pretend he's not who he is, but as far as his trolling goes he spammed way less than the Durgee Baker crew and he's said far less offensive things than some of the vitriol I've seen spewed here.
Chrispminis, that may be true. But why bother to ban him in the first place then? I don't get it. He didn't have a good reputation, because he didn't want one. He didn't have a lot of points or a good record, because he just wasn't very good at this game. So why the original ban then? Why do you ban user accounts rather than people?
(My point above, being that whatever reason someone may fear losing their ID, it didn't apply to him. Figles has said 'he lost his favoured name, his points and theoretically his reputation ')

DJ, see my post above. Banning is about reforming them. If they can show that they've reformed, we will let them back. If they keep being, well, diplofool, then we'll ban them again.
Chrispminis (916 D)
23 Jun 09 UTC
Well we banned him for multiaccounting. We were originally going to just ban Problem_Solver and let him keep diplomat because that's actually what we do normally with multi accounters who fess up. He stalwartly denied being the same person when it was extremely obvious, so we just banned both accounts. I was hoping he'd take the chance to start a new account with a clean slate and avoid his old reputation. He started off well, but since then he's deteriorated. His trolling was never the reason for the ban.

We do have many reformed multi accounters living among us.

@Chrispminis I certainly don't think he or anyone else (at least not so far, please no one take this as a challenge) should be banned permanently but it does seem like at least a little bit of time should apply, even if it's just a month or so.

Sure I think it should be a reform rather than punitive system, but I feel like it's hard to imagine much in the way of reform without ANY kind of real punishment.

But, I don't make or even enforce the rules, and on the whole this seems like a fairly good community so, now that I've said my piece, I'll defer to you guys on this one.

The way I see it (which I alluded to earlier) is that a ban is a punishment. It comes with a degree of disgrace, the loss of a players chosen name (most people seem to have a settled internet identity) and also their points.
Moreover most people get the hint and shut up when they rejoin. As I was thinking before, once the point got made sure enough he has shut up and really I think we should just let this one die.

This thread is evidence that he/she/it has learned nothing. I suspect that Chrispminis's repeated entreaties for an email have been completely rebuffed. The Nameless One is once again, eating your lunch.

I have an "I told you so" waiting just for you, squidge.

Wrong. I wanted to set a precedent by eliminating him/her from phpDip. The "shut up" ship sailed long ago.

Anyway, I'll keep my peace until....

Cancel or Unpause Please!
This game has been stuck since one of the players was uncovered as a multi. The remaining players have voted to unpause with the exception of 2 who haven't been on since April or May. Can you either unpause the game or just outright cancel it?

Unpause please!
I asked already a few days ago without result. The game was paused since one former player was banned for multiaccounting, but in our game he was already defeated. So this did not affect us at all. Now the game is paused since one week---one player doesn't unpause---seems to be happy with this game being paused forever.

Tuesday Live Game?
Is there anybody out there who fancies a live game today?

I will post one when we get 5 players. The ideal would be 10 minute turns and 5 minute build / retreat phases I think.

WTA query
I know that in a WTA game, players who still have SCs at the end of the game get no points back.

However, in terms of your profile stats, does this count as "survived" or "defeated"?
