Non-live "Live" gunboat game...
I am looking for a few players to play a non-live gunboat as if it were live. The honor system rules follow.

What is Vdiplomacy? Is it the same as this Webdiplomacy?

BOV, benguy posted a public apology for resigning
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
and he has been in MANY stituations since then when he didn't resign, so I believe he is changing
2ndWhiteLine (2611 D(B))
08 Oct 12 UTC
Whoa, 45 resigns? Fuck this guy.
achillies27 (100 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
Are you sure? this seems to remind me of someone... *ahem* MiM?
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
but benguy has been at least staying in stituations where he left before. I like to give people a second change

MiM lost his chance because he is an asshole who doesn't resign and enters all holds instead
BreathOfVega (597 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
FD, even MiM apologized once (at least). This doesn't really change 45 ruined games, do it?
BreathOfVega (597 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
erm, does
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
it doesn't change, but there is no point in focusing on past mistakes. All it will do is drive away a decent player (actually solo'ed a game against Zmaj and 2ndWhiteLine earlier today)
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
of course, I defended MiM's apology as well.... but hey! Unless benguy proves me wrong, I will believe his apoligy
BreathOfVega (597 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
Drive away? Are you suggesting that he could resign the entire site? :D
(come on, why this sensibility - you troll? I am not focusing, since it's the first time I believe I mock him, and he deserves it at least)
Nothing to say about the decent player, but I believe it's not the issue here... Anyway, since you care, I will stop (it was meant as a one-shot mock, anyway)
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
If I was constantly being harassed I would leave the site yes. I play because it is fun, and having to deal with idiots attacking me over something I already did and was punished for is NOT fun. If everyone attacked me for the spamming incident, I would finish my games, leave, and go over to vdip or playdiplomacy.

And sorry, it is a horrible habit of mine. I just can't shut my mouth when someone insults the little guy :\

@BOV Perhaps if you put a bit less of your time into harassing people on the forum and a bit more into your diplomacy you might figure out how to win a game...
2ndWhiteLine (2611 D(B))
08 Oct 12 UTC
You guys are getting distracted from his original question. We need to describe how awesome VDip really is.
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
jmo, this was his only time... He only plays high pot gunboat, which are a lot harder to win in
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
of course its awesome! There is a gunboat tournament getting people over there :-0
jmo1121109 (3812 D)

See the email reminders thread FD
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
he was harassing people there? I was active in that thread, and didn't notice anything. i will go take another look
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
ah, i just didn't notice it because I kind of agreed with it :\
BreathOfVega (597 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
jmo, I believe that a mod should put more attention than any other user on what he posts.

My win percentage doesn't concerns you, and thanks FD, but he doesn't need to know that I don't play for poing farming (I always draw when my neighbors resign, just to say). It's not his business, simply. (but thanks!)

Second: if you actually read my intervention, you could notice that I was kinda nice to that guy, explaining why my opinion was against his. Again, more attention, you're a mod, thanks.

(third, If I could speak an appropriate English, I could play full press games, which I believe would help my rank... http://webdiplomacy.it/profile.php?userID=9)
Fortress Door (1837 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
jmo, maybe if you stopped messing with people you wouldn't be so awesome!

Wait a minute, that doesn't work, does it?
jmo1121109 (3812 D)
08 Oct 12 UTC
@BreathOfVega, I put quite a lot of attention into that thread, especially because it seems to have chased a returning member from our site. I personally don't think that's something to be desired. I expressed that opinion in the other thread and I am expressing it here.

On the note of your win percentage not concerning me...how is commenting on someones resign rate any different? It's not fun having someone point out unrelated points like that in a conversation. To be completely clear, I am posting this as a member, not a moderator. The only time I will post as a moderator on the forum will be if people are actively breaking the rules.

vDiplomacy is a site that uses the same code as webDip to provide variants.
BreathOfVega (597 D)
09 Oct 12 UTC
Strange, I have 0 resigns and I was proud of it, but it seems that If I play dirty once or two I can have a dozen of resigns, and I will be more respected.

Jmo, I expect you to understand the difference between draw/defeat and resign ON OTHERS' GAME, since you have oh so many wins. I don't know why you put yourself in this swamp and I don't even mind. I don't even try to invite you to look at what I wrote in THIS thread, if it justifies your reaction, or to consider the whole thing about "chasing" a member when I was (one of the few who were) actually explaining why he was being targeted.

On a side note, you are a mod even when you forget it. Someone with a high win percentage should make sure to point it out.

The advantage of playing at vdip is more variants, more custom special rules and reliability system (where if you CD/NMR in to many games you can't join more)

The disadantage of playing at vdip is less people and more frequent server crashes (which are still rare, just not as rare)

The Great Debate II: Thucy, dub, 2WL,dD_ShockTrooper vs.My Fellow Krellinists?
It seems as if we have a new wave of vocal and talented akrellinist thinkers, who certainly seem as willing as I to type on the matter, albeit from the other end--so, care to debate, say, 2-4 akrellinists vs. the same # of Krellinists, on a thread w/ a neutral moderator, we each give an opening statement in succession (say, 500-1000 words or less), one rebuttal per person, and then open it up for questions, side with the most +1s for their comments "wins?"
