just a curious question, is there any clear reason why the Germans kept on fighting when all was lost??
it was suicide while they could probably get a peace agreement...

At the risk of inciting mass hysteria. . .

I happened over to OliDip or vDip or whatever it's called these days, and saw a variant to choose your own country. Is that something that may be implemented over here?

Take over my games, please?

How the World Really Works XVIII

Could this happen? Can anyone defend Socialism in this thread dedicated to Greek debt? George Will is priceless, just how badly will Obama lose in 2012? Everyone knows that lower tax = more revenue, and these liberals who make Mythical victims can be spotted out with this guide to weak arguments and minds.

Do you own a boardgame copy of Diplomacy?

As there have been some IP questions about WebDip recently, I thought it might be useful to have a survey of how many of us own a cardboard version of the game. If enough of us own the game, it might convince Big H lawyers (may they never come knocking) that WebDip is not really hurting sales of the game.

TO MOD : why does this site permit hate literature?!

Can we seriously consider blocking or muting the people who post hate literature here? This is disgusting.

This is exactly why the "mute" feature was added.

The mods don't make the policies; we only enforce them. Kestas has made it clear he doesn't want censorship on the forum.

I totally agree - The Prince suggests acting in an immoral fashion to gain and retain power. I am deeply offended by these concepts and any reference to 14th Century Italians should be banned

So to answer your question, yes we can seriously consider blocking or muting the people who post hate literature here. After serious consideration it was determined that censorship is bad. I am curious though, what threads did you find particularly offensive because compared to the threads that appeared on 9-11 the current threads seem pretty mildly mannered.

Mach,

Some people believe the best way to fight bigotry is to expose it to sunlight and fresh air, not keep it cooped up in the sewer where it can build up over time and - unchecked by any other processes - eventually explode when put under pressure.

hate literature is a very broad term that leaves people forced to follow the liberal agenda. if i cant hate fags, chinks, spics, gooks, christians, blacks, and bi-partisanship why should you be allowed to write about how you hate miley cyrus or anything else? thats called hypocrisy, also you are writing hate literature about hate literature right now

Rules question

If a fleet in Edinburgh is support holding a fleet in the Norwegian Sea, and the fleet in the Norwegian Sea is moving to Norway (to counter a possible move to norway) and the fleet in the Norwegian Sea 1) is bounced out of Norway while 2) a fleet attacks the Norwegian Sea with one other supporting unit, will the fleet in Norwegian Sea be dislodged or not? It's 2 vs. 2 in Norwegian Sea, but the fleet there has a move order, which cannot be executed.
