Bounces and retreats
I know you can't retreat into a territory where there's been a standoff. Does that include a self-standoff?

Say I move Ukr-Gal and Sil-Gal, and also dislodge an enemy unit in Rum. That unit can't retreat Rum-Gal because of the standoff there...right?

clarification on convoying
Quick question on convoying. For example, if i was to convoy to Sweden from Liovonia, would i issue the convoy order for both the ship and tank to convoy or just one of them? For example, could i issue an order for the ship to move to gulf of bothnia and the tank to convoy to Sweden?

Tell me if you dont hate this
You join a game and it gets seven poeple then you have to leave or do something else. So you try to leave but it wont allow you to leave. I wish it would leave it open of people to leave when they want to pre game. Post comments of stuff that you hate that happens on WebDip. I am not saying I hate Web Dip just this feature.

Greatest breakdowns
Post the greatest breakdowns (insane messages, etc.) you've ever caused when playing Diplomacy.
BBanner (203 D)
09 Apr 10 UTC
Okay so you all have those times where you royally screw someone over because this is Diplomacy. I've had the privilege of doing this and it's been great fun, every time. Here's the latest, from http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=23088:

You're a little girl. Honor is a foreign word to you. Its tenets are so alien that you assume they are meaningless when in actuality they've been so revered because of the intense moral fiber that is required to uphold it. By betraying me you gain a few points per supply center. But you lose so much psychologically and the funny thing is that history frowns upon you as a fine example of why man is such a selfish, generally idiotic, animal and why many believe free thought is a negative attribute rather than a blessing. Congratulations you are a conniving, scheming man who has won the game but this victory is so small that I wonder whether or not you have some sort of mental deformity. Again wonderful game before autumn 11 when you realized the value of alliance.
Stukus (2126 D)

Wow, if someone really feels that way about Diplomacy and in-game alliances, why are they playing the game? They must hate every single other player.
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)

Somebody has yet to grasp the concept of this game.

For future reference, it was probably worth waiting until the game was over to post this, since talking about games in progress (even one as close to ending as this one) is frowned upon.

I can't see it all because the log doesn't go back and the end is all full of good games but during this game i offered Russia an alliance in public chat. England didn't notice and then when Russia stabbed me and i wouldn't accept a draw til i'd killed off Russia in revenge he accused me of metagaming and immediately got France to ally against me. He then had a go at both of us after He'd stabbed France and i'd persuaded France to join me instead. I found it quite funny at the time. I noticed later he'd even filed a report against me, using where i said at the end to Russia after Russia was long dead "I wouldn't have won without you stabbing me and England stabbing France" as evidence. Next time i think he should just try reading the public box first.

gopher27 (220 D)

The worst thing I've ever said to another player was: "You can neither rationally calculate your self-interest nor count. What value could you possibly have to me as an ally."

This was after I had sacrificed both position and material to assist Turkey and rather than taking the SC I was helping him capture, he bounced me in another SC thereby preventing either of us from getting a build and allowing Russia to get three. As Russia was devouring him, he kept asking me if I would like to form an alliance.

honestly, I loved the huge rant in the top post from BBanner that was said to him. carefully thought out and makes the person start to think. much better than the crap most people say when you stab them or something, well played and written

I made the guy playing Turkey in this game rage SO much at me, I can't look at all the messages sent for some reason, but here's a few examples:

-what a pathetic bitch. you must be 40 year old virgins who reek of BO.
-if you're that hellbent on destroying someone in an e-game, your lives must be absolutely meaningless.
-you've wasted an hour all so you can what? get a few more points? seriously either you're that pathetic or you're all about to wage war against each other. which in that case i hope the asteroid comes.
-seriously you all should burn in hell. it really WAS for the points. and germany, you're a spineless fucktard who could have won with my help against these tools.

He also said something about me not having descended testicles or something, to which I told him that I in fact had ovaries and not testicles, which I think made him rage even more... In the end I basically told him I was bathing in his e-tears and thanked him for the entertainment. LOL.

Wow. I think the only extenuating factors hellalt has going for him are that it was 1) live and 2) public messaging only. He impressively blended blasphemy, sodomy, necrophilia, anti-Americanism, and death threats. A Hellenic lawyer... I can't imagine the kind of verbosity that entails.

BBanner's example was impressive for being like "shit in a silk stocking" to borrow a quote from Napoleon.

Hellenic? Oh, that explains it. I will never forget the Greek exchange student who regularly shared his anti-American rants at my Midwestern high school. Finally one of the kids said, "hey--you know what the Pentagon is?"
"yeah..."
"Well, in the Pentagon there's a room with a whole bunch of buttons. Each one has a label. If they decide to push one of those buttons, the place on the label goes away. And one of those buttons says, 'Athens.' Do you have a room like that in Greece?"
"no..."
"Then shut up."

He did shut up. The funny thing is that this explains more about why people don't like Americans than any anti-American rant.

You all need to read a little more carefully.

1) I was a witness, not the person who said this.

2) I said at the end that the story explains why people don't like Americans. The lesson from the story was that the Greek kid had a point.

Why do players have to manually enter disband orders if there is nowhere to retreat?
I've noticed this in a couple of games, and it is a bit annoying. If there is nowhere for a unit to retreat, can't the game just automatically disband it? Why does the player have to input it as an order?

Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere.
