Italy: 3 fleets opening
This sounds really interesting. Italy takes Trieste in Sp01 and Austria takes if back in Fa01. Italy disbands the army and is allowed to build two fleets to better attack France or Turkey.

Rankings
So I have completed a few games and have done fairly well. What I want to know is, where can I see the rankings? Like is there a list on this site rating all members that can be viewed?

What about Ghost Rankings? I hear they have not been updated for a while but where can i see them? And how does TGM take into account Anonymous games?

All Men Are Created Equal- What a Terrible Thought
I think it's a nice idea and in the Founding Father's context I can see through to agreeing with it on the whole:
But treating everyone equal just as a matter of fact? We are unique beings!
Case in point- our terrible American Educational System

Can someone look into this game?
gameID=13720

It seems kind of odd how I am being gained upon by three people in that particular situation. It's either multi's or three people who really want one of themselves to win.

Portugal can't retreat... what?
I just noticed. Portugal only boarders two territories: Spain and MAO. Because of this, if Portugal is dislodged (requiring both units) it has no where to go.

What's the status on the points bug?
Sorry I haven't been keeping up with this, but I want to know what to expect.
Toby Bartels (361 D)
11 Oct 09 UTC
I have ‘Survived. Bet: 23 D, won: 10 D’ below but ‘You survived and got 29 D!’ in my notices. My game gameID=12575 just ended; I have ‘Survived. Bet: 23 D, won: 10 D’ there but ‘You survived and got 29 D!’ in my notices. The former looks like what it should be, but the latter looks like what actually happened. (I have points invested in another game, so it's a coincidence that I have exactly 100 showing now.)

Shhhhhhh.... You weren't supposed to let that leak, Toby. Now I may lose some point when he corrects it ;-).
Alderian (2425 D(S))

Perhaps when the game is deciding whether to bump you up to 100 D it isn't accounting for points you have involved in anonymous games.
Toby Bartels (361 D)
12 Oct 09 UTC
Perhaps it is lying about how many points I have in order to prevent people from figuring out, by following my point total, that I'm in an anonymous game. Clever!

'fraid not Toby, this is a mystery. I looked up the transactions and it looks like you were given the correct 10 point win, but you were also supplemented 19 D.
When the game ended you had 71 D in your account, 100 - (71+10) = 19 D short, which seems like the only explanation for why it's 19. The problem is that you had 54 D in other games, and I have no idea why it seems to have just ignored it

Also your current total points is a small number of points higher than you were at when you won that game, and the points transaction logs can't account for it

Thanks for letting me know about this. I'll leave those points for now though, it'll get corrected when everything is working and it's safe to make corrections from the logged pointsWon values (which seem to always get calculated and stored correctly, which makes things even more confusing)

He is in 34 D of anonymous games, so you can't see them.

P.S. The previous post was tongue-in-cheek for those of you who are humorously challenged.
Toby Bartels (361 D)
13 Oct 09 UTC
The 54 D in other games were all anonymous, so maybe the bug interacts with that.
Toby Bartels (361 D)
13 Oct 09 UTC
Actually, it should only have been 34 D in one other game, at the time that gameID=12575 actually ended. (I had 50 D in another game briefly as well, but that was earlier.)

Kestasjk, I sent you a PM about this.
kestasjk (64 DMod(P))
14 Oct 09 UTC
Thanks Alderian that was helpful. Definitely the exact same bug Toby experienced, based on it somehow ignoring the points you have in other games. It is mysterious though, since the way it finds how many points you've got in other games comes from a direct query

-- Found the bug, was staring me right in the face, right where I knew it had to be but couldn't see anything wrong..
"list($pointsInPlay) = $DB->sql_tabl(" should have been "list($pointsInPlay) = $DB->sql_row("

I've also added extra points logging so that in future I won't need people to do tests to see what's going wrong. Also this bug isn't limited to anonymous games, it would have occurred for all game types, giving supplements up to the amount bet whenever the amount won was smaller than the amount bet, even if the person getting the supplement thousands of points.

I'll now get the code ready to correct the mistaken supplements this bug has given, thanks for the help

How are rankings determined? How much "weight" is given "Draw" versus "Survived"? What other factors are considered (i.e., % of wins, draws, survived, lost)?

Is there an archived explanation for this question?

Speeding up games
Hey guys.

I've just started a 3 day turn game with some friends. Is there any way to speed up certain turns? Namely, we've started the game but still have to wait 3 turns to be assigned countries and to even start! Is there any way to just start our first turn?
