Game Limit
I know there are no limits to the number of games you can play at one time. Does anyone have their own personal limits, though? I find that if I play too few games I am eager to join more, but every once in a while I join a few too many games and lose focus and miss a few moves here and there. What are your thoughts?

Little technical issue
When I click on two of my games, it says I am being redirected to the game and it never actually lets me into the game page. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Mod help needed please.
We can't unpause a live game as there is no option to vote unpause.
Despite the fact its already paused, we can only vote to pause again.

What IS gunboat?
what are gunboat games? can someone explain the rules and whatnot?
hellalt (70 D)

Games that no talking is allowed making it easier for someone to cope with people like you.
TiresiasBC (388 D)

It's just a game with all communication turned off. Sometimes global chat is left on so people can ask for pauses, but there's supposed to be no diplomacy whatsoever.

So most of them are anonymous, too, so people can't just communicate outside the game.

They're great fun, and a good way to keep your mind running the diplom wheels even when you don't have time to play chat games.
Alderian (2425 D(S))

Keep in mind that just because you are not allowed to send press doesn't mean you can't work with someone. Throw a support hold or move or attack a common enemy and you can have an ally. But stabs happen just as quick or quicker so still protect yourself. But at least they aren't lying to your face.
fortknox (2059 D)

It's a mute tactics-only in a game whose primary role is that of communication. Sorry, it's a biased opinion, but I'm no fan of gunboats.
Benjamin (208 D)
26 Oct 09 UTC
me neither, the whole point of this game is to be able to communicate. otherwise its basically a really bad 7 player chess game.

Draugnar (0 DX)

Benjamin - you need to learn how to diplome without words. You'll find it is far more than a "7 player chess game." when you set up a brilliant play with an ally through moves alone, or when you set it up to look like you'll support him and use that to your advantage against him.
Bearnstien (0 DX)

@ Draugnar, as nice as that sounds in theory, that type of situation occurs very rarely, which, in my opinion causes me to classify gunboat as a much less sophisticated form of the game.
hellalt (70 D)
27 Oct 09 UTC
I can say I have to agree with Bearnstien
Whenever I play gunboat games every time someone has the chance to do something spectacular collaborating with another player he eventually prefers the worse, shorteyed solution. The prevailing philosophy in gunboats is "let's just get the easiest supply center available instead of bothering creating a strategy"
Draugnar (0 DX)
27 Oct 09 UTC
Well then you two aren't playing the right gunboat opponents. You should play with longer phases and more experienced players who will study the moves.
Alderian (2425 D(S))
27 Oct 09 UTC
The last gunboat game I played was PPSC. Somehow I didn't notice when I joined it. I realized around 2007 that there was a reason France was acting how he was which would let Turkey win. So if you play gunboat, make sure you play WTA at least.

Move entry bug
Sorry if this is the wrong place to report it but the SF bug tracker seems unused. If you have an option to move an army by land or convoy, and choose the destination but not the method, then change to support move, the via convoy/via land box remains. If you select one of them, there is an error, "What did you just update?" The problem is gone after clicking update.

Question about points in draw
I have a game where 2 remaining powers want to draw.

There is still also a third country which has a status "left". If we vote for the draw, will the points be split between the 2 players who are still in the game, or will the 3rd player (who already left) qualify as a survivor -- and get 1/3 of the points?
