Should +1 bump a thread?
In light of all the new uses for the +1 feature, should it also bump a thread? The con would be that the front page would have threads without new replies while new replies might be buried. Thoughts?

A Tribute to Mr. Calhamer
Draugnar pointed out that this is the creator of Diplomacy's 80th birthday coming up this December 7th and I've got an idea on how we can say thanks in a way that shows him just how many and how far his game has captured across the world.

Hypothetical move
Let's assume that St. Petersburg is surrounded. Norway and Finland are going to support Barents Sea in. Armies in Livonia and Moscow could support the hold in St. Pete's, but a German army may cut Livonian support. If St. Petersburg hits Norway to cut support, and Moscow supports Livonia into St. petetersburg, would everyone bounce?

Weird glitch.
I imputed my orders. And none of them went through. Does this happen often. It has caused me to drastically change a game that I was winning.

Are discussions of banned players allowed on the forum?
Obviously cheating accusations aren't, but I seem to recall hearing that we're allowed to discuss players banned for cheating openly, and I'm curious as to the story behind some of the recently-banned players... seems like some familiar names are out.

@PE I agree on both points.
Though I guess I'm more interested in the story than that I'd like to see a large discussion about it.

I think that was one of his multis as I saw dr rush (IIRC) in one of Cockney's games.
That's hilarious. Cockney and dr rush were "both" in the NFL pickem pool.

lol, multiaccounting in forum threads

I've always wondered -- why don't multis get more involved in the forum and argue with themselves? Surely that would be more fun than cheating ingame...
How do you know they don't? Maybe Sicarius and Krellin are the same person, and he sends PMs to himself then posts them in a forum thread.
This gives me an idea.
SacredDigits (102 D)
16 Nov 11 UTC
Cockney and dr rush, if they were the same guy, did argue in forum threads a few times.
fortknox (2059 D)

I guess you can discuss it, just don't expect an official reasoning behind it.
I will say two things:
1.) I was not the mod who banned the recent player (cause I haven't had a banning in like a week), so don't try and grind me for info.

2.) We have a LOT of tools at our disposal to find possible multis/metas, delve into them, collect evidence, and only ban when we have some pretty solid proof. So if someone was banned, it was a pretty obvious case. I've seen one unbanning since I've been a mod and it was a rookie mistake (*cough*mine*cough*).

@PE: "I've always wondered -- why don't multis get more involved in the forum and argue with themselves?"

You joke, but I've seen multi's try (sometimes too hard) to divert attention to themselves. I've banned 3 people.... who reported multi's (yeah, btw - if you report a multi or meta, I check you, too). I've seen multi's put up quite a display of talking to one another, etc...
You know, the whole diversion of attention via marking for moderation thing isn't surprising to me. One player, ariabaghieri or something like that, claimed to have reported me for cheating when I backstabbed him... he was later banned for cheating. Imagine that.

oh btw did that report ever go through? I'm curious what y'all thought lol
and whether or not he actually reported me...

@PE: "oh btw did that report ever go through? I'm curious what y'all thought lol"

You'd be surprised how often this happens. In fact, whenever a new player says something stupid, the first thing I do is see if he's a multi.

7 players? Did he play the standard game? If so(despite having more than 1 acct) is that cheating lol?
Draugnar (0 DX)
17 Nov 11 UTC
First, because someone will point it out, I'm *not* a mod...

That said, the rules clearly state that having more than one account is a violation of the terms, regardless if they play together. Add to it the fact that he guaranteed himself 700 D and points are meant to keep new players from getting into too many games and ruining the experience for others until they can handle them, then yes, he stole 600 more points from the site and was then able to get into high stakes games that got him even more if he won or drew in them. So yes, it *is* cheating.
