No idea what to do...

So, in this game, I am facing 3 countries that are in a permanent alliance. They don't actually coordinate very well, which allowed me to get into a stalemate line. Their response to this, was just to continue doing what they were doing. I can't seem to get them to talk to me at all. They won't turn on each other. I am not sure what to do.

Pause please

gameID=13085

Everyone has agreed to pause except France, who keeps going NMR. He hasn't gone yet, but probably will, and has gunboated (I think) everyone in the game.

Private game needs seventh

Once again I started a private game and need a seventh player. The six of us have played together several times but I can assure there are no pre-determined alliances. The game name is Loki's Labyrith. Password is bladetoback if anyone is interested. Just need one to begin.

Site Error: Game 13309

I am playing game 13309 as Austria. The system apparently held all units and finalized my turn during the second round. I had been waiting for the "!!" signal that I had moves to make and only because I happened to look did I notice that all units were set to hold and finalized, even though I had placed no such order, nor recall having even been given the option of placing orders before they were entered by the system. Fortunately, this error was caught before all players had finalized.

Longest Game

So, what is the longest game in years that has ever been played here?

Ok, didn't think to look at the search before, but it shows them. Here they are:
1995
1992
1975
1969
1951
1948
1947
1945
1942
1937

And I thought one of my games was running long...

These have got to be buggy games or something.

Most of them were probably played before the pause and draw options were installed on this site, so all units were ordered to hold in the event of a "pause" and players would be in stalemate lines for decades because there was no draw option.

i heard an urban legend of a game back in the day when diplomacy was played by mail... apparently lasted a ridiculous 35 real life years and ended in a 5 way draw or something like that... i may be wrong though

The very old games were extended by the absence of the draw option.

Slightly old (7th Aug), but I don't fancy doing the research again.

i just was part of forming a stalemate line to stop russia from solo-ing in this game, which finally ended in 1921. though russia could have slogged it out for a couple more years, we had him tied down at 16 SCs. a fantastic game played in the true spirit of diplomacy even though it was PPSC, a real rarity.

djbent - that is an absolutely fascinating game... i loved it.

Richard III (373 )
15 Sep 09 UTC

It was an *insane* game. I figured I was about to be exterminated at least four distinct times, despite leading the map at one point. Even stranger was the fact that djbent's success came after she bought her way into a half-successful CD Turkey, turning the country around at just the right moment, transforming what would normally be a dead country into a sort of mid-game power that was (eventually), the second place power nimbly holding the med with the help of a pair of desperate puppet-states in exile (me being one of them).

Civil Disorder vs. Civil Disorder

According to the rules, civil disorder is the state a country enters when it misses any turn. Shouldn't this be noted in the game right away instead of after 2 turns? I am not saying that other people should be able to take up your country after only one missed turn. I am saying that after one missed turn, the civil disorder tag should be applied, and after two missed turns, an ‘open’ or similar tag should be applied.

Hopefully Juan Martin has many more majors in his future!

Applauding a player in a gunboat...

Ever have one of those situations where you want to applaud a brilliant move by an opponent in a gunboat game? I wish there was a 'Tip of the Cap' button, so you could do that without violating gunboat moves. In 2-3 weeks when the game ends, it won't mean as much.

Online indicator gives away anon games

I often play private games against friends, several of whom are in different time zones. We're finding that the online and Last Seen indicators give you a pretty good clue about who's who. Probably applicable only to these situations, but I think for a truly anonymous game, they're undesirable.
