please, write here the languages you learned, those you are learning or those you are going to learn. Then explain why.

Pimping relatives apparently...

cg, how very very good to see you back from the depths of Westminster.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say there probably aren't three more here from Montana... so let's extend the geographic area to the states in the Rocky Mountain region. Any chance there are enough interested parties to field a team for the next World Cup tourney?

Mine just finished so I'm just curious. Who is still going?

Cutting foreign support that you don't need.

I can't work out whether I'm Batman or Spartacus

France has CD'd and is in a decent position

A lot of games end up with finishing off draw participants. Maximizing the outcome for the remaining powers. Not the best practice, from a certain perspective. Would it make sense to have the option for draws to not be equal. Everyone gets 1/7th (his entry cost) + a part of the rest, split proportionally to center count.

O'Reilley had his sexual assualt case and a reputation for...well...and Limbaugh made his comments about Haiti and has a rep for...well...
And now, just to show the Left-Wing "journalists" are as bad as the Right:

Yeah, this.

I'm about to convoy an army to a territory A, with support from an adjacent territory B. My opponent has a unit in territory A and a unit in a third territory C adjacent to territory B. I'm worried he may order terC-terB with support from terA. I know that this will cut support from terB and make the convoy fail, but will the convoy at least cut support from terA and make his attack fail as well?
Thanks!

summary: what a farce

It appears that I have a bug with convoys. The orders that executed aren't what I thought I entered. Further, the orders that attempted to execute aren't even possible.

Anyone interested in getting a little league going? Maybe a few? Have a few games a week. Have rankings, stuff like that?

In a game that was paused. 1 person is MIA and we want an unpause. Do we need them in there or can you boot them? Do you need a unanimous to cancel?

lol this is a joke... but like... lol

how much server strain would it be to set up a chat room for the live gamers? Working on the theory that you would then get to see who really was around, and whether or not it was worth starting a fresh game. Having the option to place icons after a name for things like "in a game" and "keen to play", and being able to show idle times and stuff like that?

Being new here I don't know if this has been discussed before but would be interested in feedback.

hilarious excerpt inside

What do you guys think of Linkin Park's new album?
I find it amazing but others think they suck now.

Affirmative motion:
2015 in World Diplomacy is analogous to 1904 in Calhamer Diplomacy

Open to anyone with a GR in the 300s. Game details inside.

Would have posted this in the "Advice" Thread, but then I noticed, there were about 20 of them...
Who's played it? How is it? Looks good, but want to know more before I shell out the 50 clams.
