We're playing our first game, and a player left. Can anything be done to speed up turns since he ain't logging in? When will he dissapear as a player, when all his provinces are conquered at the end of Autumn? How many votes for Draw/Cancel are requiered? Anything else I should know on the situation? Thanks in advance, guys!
The login page on vdiplomacy says to enter your webdeplomacy usrnm and pswd, but then it says my account does not exist. Yet, I see names that I recognize on that forum.
http://vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=5642 Come on and join the chaos variant! Standard map, with 34 players, one per SC! Total randomness! 1-1-2-3-5-8-13!!!
There is a Tournament about to start on vdiplomacy.net called the whittle down tournament which needs players! The basic format is that the tourney starts on the site's largest map and players get eliminated from each round and the survivors pass to smaller and smaller maps.

Serious Diplomacy Question- How nice should you be to your allies?
I am a relatively new player to Diplomacy, and often engage in (obviously) diplomacy with other players. However, I seem to find myself being to nice to my supposed allies. When dealing with allies, how nice is too nice? Thanks.
Hey, I'm having trouble getting the last few games together. I apologize to those whose games are being constantly postponed. I need two volunteers minimum to keep the tournament going. It's only 1 or 2 games folks, can anyone step up?
I've been playing here for about 2 years, but started playing at playdiplomacy about a month ago, and I have to say, they have a better interface, and a community who can actually hold an intelligent discussion. See inside for more reasoning. I hope to see some of you better players over there soon!
When you have allies like this in a game, what do you think is better diplomacy? winning the game, or upholding your good word as a player? example is this very game. could have won, wish you could see the chat. excellent diplomacy and communication here. gameID=79078
I'm tired of going through it. I'm tired of people acting like it. I'm tired of people who are full of it. Not that anyone on this site can tell it apart from something comedic.
Since I am now a Masters sub I cannot take my one month planned vacation. Sorry everyone who looked forward to it. But I HAVE decided to limit my trolling comments to one a week or less.

Seriously...seriously, this is what you're resorting to now? 3. I like Star Trek, would love to hsee this happen, someday, but...no, I'm sorry--does ANYONE take this guy seriously? (Or a Moon Colony by 2020, for that matter, assuming the technology did exist, could it be built?)
I set out to demolish Russia early hoping Italy would see me doing that and go after Austria, which it looked like he intended to do anyway. I could not read Russia at all early, and things became messy. Meanwhile E/F engaged, Germany kept picking up the pieces and there wasn't much they could do about it, which was getting scary, because Germany can churn out armies and cross the line very quickly, ending the show there.
Russia developed a dislike for Germany at a very convenient time, so I let him keep Moscow and he went after Germany while I ran through Austria. I was mostly concerned about getting to the line to stop a German win, but E/F managed to hold him off somehow despite continuing to fight each other. Eventually managed to get a fleet across the line, and it was more or less over then.
I cocked up early on by sticking a fleet in St Petersburg and it came back to haunt me in the end game ........ frustrating but a good learning experience. I would have left France to fight you in the West but my failure to sort out Russia made me a bit desperate so I started stealing his units. 2 tactical errors that I'll try not to repeat !! Anyway well done, good game
What does everybody think of Dutch policies? Saw some talk show about it and even though it was in dutch (which I am) I still could understand "Yes minister" better...
Not sure if this goes here, or I'm supposed to email this to the mods, but this game needs to be unpaused: http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=73347
Anyone dare take me up on the challenge? I'm hoping to at least see The Czech, Lando, Eden, jmeyers, Barn3tt, Frank, Troodonte, Babak, Eden, Lando, rdrivera, Dunecat, uclabb, Eden, fulhamish, Troodonte, and Lando.
I think it would be a good idea to allow unrated games. After all, not all Chess games are ELO-rated for example. A simple way to do it would be to make a new variant, say "Classic-unrated". Then, adjust the GR program so that it excludes all games of that variant.
