Possible order submission bug?
I know, I know, it's probably user error... mods, sorry to take your time, but please check the details within, as there's a live game with a potential example of the bug I'd like to report....

Weird Game.
This game looks rather strange to me.
Anyone would have any Idea what would be going on?

Its an ongoing game. You won't get discussion on it.

It's just anon - so what could possibly look fishy? It's not like it's a gunboat with bizarre supports. But no need to answer. It's an ongoing game and we shouldn't talk about it.

Oh, I see what you are saying and *NO CHEATING ACCUSATIONS IN THE FORUM*! :-) Send an email to the mods and they will check it out. But seriously, that was a veiled cheating accusation and is against the rules.
Draugnar (0 DX)

And it could be argued that you already told everyone who you were at the beginning of the game which goes against anon rules.

Hmm?
I didn't tell anyone who I was in there.

And what comes to the "Cheating accusation", I won't say anything before the game is drawn.
Of course I do not mean to say that I have suffered injustice in this game.

But for real it is weird in many ways,
I especially am wondering the Europe and it's diplomatic relationships.

But soon this game will be over, as WC, Europe and Argentina are defeated, it will be drawn.
I can't wait to see who are the people behind the nations.
Draugnar (0 DX)

Read the global press and it becomes apparent who you are. Trust me.

And considering that the accusations are flying in global chat which anyone who clicks on the game ID can read, it becomes an accusation on the forum.

Meanwhile India and Oz missed their phase.

Perhaps I should indeed contact the mods :p
Hernando (0 DX)

I mean, of course they went to disorder at the same time,
But they came back so fast after that. Especially brazil.
how about you stop talking about an ongoing game on the forum, what makes you so incredibly dense?

Oh, I thought you Muted me a while ago.

Well sorry me Mr. Santa.
Is this a written or an unwritten rule?
I surely contacted the Mods, not you :p


Oh yes, you should not spam the forums, Keep our fight inside the game.
Draugnar (0 DX)

If you keep it up, you are liable to find a miod come in here and tell you about not posting cheating accusations on the forum which is a *written* rule, coksucker.

Disclaimer: I am *not* a mod, but I will bring it to their attention.
Hernando (0 DX)
19 Nov 11 UTC
Well I may a dyslexia or something, but I didn't find anything regarding that in the Rulebook.
Care to explain me?

Besides I never said in the forums anything about violating any kind of game rules, did I ?
If you want to contact the Mods for something like this, then you are free to do so.
I have no need to listen someone's blabbering who thinks Alaska is as big as Europe.

Oh yes, and the pejorative you said, you forgot the letter C from there.

@Hernando - Epic. Fucking. Fail.

Read the last paragraph of rule 4 below. Especially the part that says all cheating accusations must be made to the mods in private. Epic. Fucking. Fail.

4. Do not use the software or moderators as a diplomacy tactic
Lying is fine in Diplomacy except when it gives mods/admins unnecessary work to do!

Falsely accusing someone of being a multi-accounter/meta-gaming to rally others against them in a game, or claiming that your orders didn't come out the way you entered them to cover up your motives, means mods/admins spend time looking for cheaters/bugs which were made up.

All accusations against other players must be made directly to the mod/admin team directly as specified below, in private, for this reason, and software bug claims must be genuine, even if only told to another player.

An accusation would have been along the lines of "These two countries are cheating" or "These two countries are multi-accounting". You are interpreting the comments to say that, but they don't explicitly accuse. Not a total fail, but I agree that it is a thinly veiled suggestion.

Draugnar (0 DX)
20 Nov 11 UTC
@Cirillio - The mods have clarified that even veiled accusations pointing to a game but not saying which players (and if you look at that game there are accusations a plenty in the global chat) is an accusation.

I don't see why it is so difficult for players to realize that rule 4 means no accusations in any way shape or form except directly to the mods, in private, exactly as it says. Accusing someone in the global tab violates the rule to begin with then pointing to the game on the forums compounds the violation by making it even more public.

In *fucking* private. It's right there in black and white!
jmo1121109 (3812 D)

@ Hernando
Draugnar is correct, Rule 4 in the rules clearly states no cheating accusations in the forum. Since you have implied multiple time you are going to report this game and you find it suspicious I think everyone understands you are accusing those players of cheating, hence you are breaking site rules. Please stop.
I muted you in the game dipshit, and i am not surprised that you cannot read in here as well, you sure as hell had a hard time of it in game as well.
TheCirillio (386 D)

@Draugner: It's not difficult for me to understand the rules, if that is your veiled implication. I did agree with your point, if you happened to read that far.

Sorry @Cirillio - I should have directed the second paragraph to @All.
Hmm, is Oz or Kenya a good investment..? Decisions decisions...
Hernando (0 DX)

Hoo,
Indeed you were right Draugnar, I had missed those few lines and I now see how it is.
Therefore I won't Accuse anyone for cheating.

Woohoo!
Kenya and Oz were banned, atleast I was right (inside the game).

Sorry to hurt all your minds, who get annoyed here, except Mr. Santa of course.
for some reason that doesn't bother me
