DAIDE AI

Does anyone know how to get new AIs for DAIDE? I've only played against Albert and I'd like to get new ones but each time I get one it tells me its the wrong version. If anyone can help enable a fellow Diplo addict I'd appreciate it!

This Time On Philosophy Weekly: Free As a (Causally-Determined) Bird

Right, so "causality" is apparently a four-letter word with my Philosophy of Religion professor, as for him there is absolutely no hearing an argument agaisnt free will, the whole, weeks-long discussion was led by him and emhpasized not IF we can have free will but rather HOW we DO have free will, ie, is it God, science, a balance, and on...so I present it to you, the WebDip Philosophical Community--CAN we have free will, if so to what degree, and if not, why, and is there any point to life?

PM me if you're Irish and interested in the next diplomacy world cup team. (i know webdip will be making a bid to host it)

I hope we will have enough players to run a qualifier round before the next team is picked. For now i'm inviting all Irish players to come together for a practice game.

search here for world cup:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplomacy_%28game%29

is is seperate to the webdiplomacy cup of the same name.
There is a bidding process for different sites to host that world cup, it's a pretty big tournament, i'm not sure what size we had here...

I'm not sure how it is setup, however there is a 'world cup council' who are mandated with ensuring the unbiased and fair running of this tournament... it's nice to have a title i guess.

My mother's next door neighbour had an Irish Wolfhound - Do I qualify? I know that I could ply for the Irish football team.

orathaic (1009 )
10 Nov 10 UTC

Irish football teams are one thing, i know there are ~40 million Irish people worldwide (or at least people who claim ancestry)

I hesitate to define 'Irish' only because i think it is a less than useful thing. In theory i would like people who are in Ireland to play (just so we'd have a decent chance of organizing a face-to-face tournament)

World cup-wise i imagine they have their own definition which i would happily fall-back on if i could find it...

orathaic (1009 )
10 Nov 10 UTC

ah ha!

Players are eligible to play for a World Cup Team if:
1. they share a common nationality by passport, residency or birth

if my sources are correct: http://www.embassysa.co.za/worldcup/worldcup.php

Hey Maniac, you can hardly begrudge us for taking the likes of Lee Carsley and Clinton Morrison off your hands!

orathaic (1009 )
11 Nov 10 UTC

yeah, i guess i did, i'd like to see something which gathered teams from different sites and hosted one game on each site (so if you could find 7 different online sites and had 7 irish palyers each one would play on a different site...)

but i also think that this is the web and geography based division aren't the most important to us anymore...

Anonymous messages in-game

An idea went to my mind: what would you think of the option to write anonymous messages in your games? Parallel and independent to your regular comments of course.
Discuss here if it pleases you.

Rhyming game

This variant of the game seems like it can be a lot of fun. I had the pleasure of seeing one unfold about a year ago. Since I havent been on this site in so long, I have no idea if this has become a common trait among different games on this site now.
The rules are exactly the same as a normal dip game, but with one exception.
if you want to say something, you have to make it rhyme.

Decrimanalizing Marijuana

In Canada there is some discussion about decriminalizing Marijuana. It will still be against the law to use or distribute, but it will be punished by a ticket (like a traffic ticket) instead of a criminal record.

2 Spots Open

I started a game of Ancient Mediterranean, and it seems 2 players (Rome and Greece) were cheating. We now have 2 open spots. Both these countries are doing very well and I'd appreciate it if some of you would come fill in. Thanks.
