Draw request by an unwilling
Has anyone been bullied into drawing a game when they were winning? This recently happened to me, and although the men I was playing with claim this is not the case, I really feel it was. One player decided to gang up on me and the rest joined in until I caved. I know its fair to vote in favour of the majority, but the only person it seemed to hurt was me.

What is metagaming?
Exactly what is it? Is it always unacceptable? Are some forms acceptable? Or just unavoidable? Is it possible to make rules to stop the most pernicious forms of metagaming?

I like to look at the message counter when choosing opponents. I prefer playing the chattier players. I was over 800 the las time I checked and now I am back to 0. Did I break my counter???
No I know better, but will that be back up?

Small code update
I've been getting 0.9x ready for release now that the bug count is starting to decrease, with comments and optimizations, see inside for details and to post bugs.
kestasjk (95 DMod(P))
04 Sep 09 UTC
Before when viewing any page all code was loaded, so viewing the FAQ you'd be loading the order-generation and game-processing code. Now that has been fixed and the memory use (seen at the bottom) is less than half for most pages, things should be a bit snappier, and the code is better commented and more portable to get ready for release at 0.91.

But changes usually mean bugs, so post any that you notice. It's not a big update though so things shouldn't be too bad.
kestasjk (95 DMod(P))
04 Sep 09 UTC
Also all games had their phase next-process times reset so no-one misses their orders due to the update

>Well, the site is loading quicker for me now. Is that a coincidence?
Hard to say, the site can be slow for a number of reasons since we use shared hosting. But having to load a few php scripts instead of a few dozen definitely doesn't hurt

I've fixed the FAQ bug, having a look at the other one now
kestasjk (95 DMod(P))
04 Sep 09 UTC
Okay the libGameMaster bug should be fixed now. (Before libGameMaster was always loaded, now it's only loaded where it's needed, and this was a case I had missed)

just in case no one mentioned, i am still getting double points for draw. just draw a 25 D pot game, notices tell me i got 12 D but my score increased by 24 D
Ivo_ivanov (7545 D)
04 Sep 09 UTC
Yes, I think I noticed the same about the points - never cared to really remember and compare the exact amount - but seems like there's something from from time to time.
fortknox (2059 D)

sounds like we need to make many large bit-pot games, and draw on the first turn! ;)

Unless kestas still has the code in that is recording all of them so he can reverse them. <grin>
kestasjk (95 DMod(P))
04 Sep 09 UTC
Damn, thought I had nabbed the draw points bug long ago, but hopefully now that's fixed, and so should the libGameMaster joining bug.

I am logging all points transactions, and it should be straightforward to reverse the problem
It still has that weird paging behavior when you view game lists. If I pull up "Open" games, for example, and flip through about three pages, when I go to any of the other lists, I'll still be on page 3. This behavior also carries through to game searches when you put in the parameters manually.

The tabs thing should also now be resolved

kestasjk (95 DMod(P))
05 Sep 09 UTC
Fixed the thing where it thought you had moves to submit, and don't worry you don't know your starting country because it isn't decided until the game starts, it must have been a glitch because even the system doesn't know yet :-P

Had an issue with points after a win where i received less than i actually paid in after a CD takeover, you have an E- mail on it so hopefully its an easy fix!!

"Had an issue with points after a win where i received less than i actually paid in after a CD takeover, you have an E- mail on it so hopefully its an easy fix!!"

That's not a bug but a feature :) - you generally lose points when taking over CDs due to how the take-over price is calculated. Watch out how much points it asks for a takeover and what is the points total.

But if when you buy in, you pay for what the supply centers are "worth", and then if you win then you gained supply centers, so shouldn't you come out ahead?

The game message counter is now updated after a game has finished, to make things faster and prevent people from using the data to guess who you're talking to in-game

Views on Goerge Orwell Great Politicain and Writer, or Pessimistic Pundant
Well it is interesting his great peice Animal farm was written when admiration for Stalin and USSR was at its height in Britain and US. We can all see today that the Totalitarian nightmare that was predicted never came about does this mean that all that pessimism was rubish and that that glim future was not possible?
