Special Rules Game: A center is randomly selected (through chance) at the start of the game. Whoever controls it a decade later (Fall 1910) wins. If you solo before then, you win as well. Draws are not allowed. There will always be one winner and 6 losers. Standard Map, 36 hour phases, WTA. 1. steephie22
I know that when you click save instead of ready, you get a gray check. But if time runs out before you click ready, are your saved moves inputed or do you have no moves for that turn?
Colorblindness update and live game display option
Colorblind options are now live. Live game display option is also live. Both settings can be changed under "settings." Much thanks to ATC and the dev team, including thorfi, Kestas, and Oli. ATC will also push out the auto update fix for the colorblind option soon. You might have to manually update your map to see the change at the moment. Please thank them for the work they do and let us know how much you enjoy these updates!

To fill out a locked game. Full disclosure several of us have played multiple games together, and some know one another personally, but we all leave that at the door and play to win. gameID=160620 Ppsc, full press, non anon, 1901
An Ancient Mediterranean Game, looking for players.
I would like to start a game in the Ancient Mediterranean. There will be messaging and press, and maybe anonymous players. This game will have normal turn lengths (1 day) and may or may not be password protected. Would anyone be interested in this?
Rule 1: READ THE RULES; It is your responsibility to know and follow all the rules (http://webdiplomacy.net/rules.php) Rule 2: Try the FAQ section (http://webdiplomacy.net/FAQ.php) Ask questions not covered by Rules 1 and 2 and receive wisdom.
You all heard the news before. I asked people not to forget, so I'm reminding people today again. There was a second quake this morning of similar magnitude (7.3), killing many, but more importantly right now, people are forced to live communally outdoors as the monsoon season approaches.
Once it begins to rain, cholera will likely break out in the cities, and there will be a whole new emergency then. Cholera will spread with communal water (and communal sewage), an issue Nepal has experienced before, but for now, basic relief is needed ahead of what is looking like an inevitable outbreak.
Mercy Corps has been on the ground in Nepal as a general aid agency for many years and now helps lead the relief distribution efforts since the Nepalese government is, as usual, useless and selfish. I encourage you to donate to them, but obviously, any donation to any reputable organization or person is encouraged. Link to their website below:
I like most groups that coordinate through local chapters of their organization. Similarly to Mercy Corps, Oxfam has been in Nepal and was in Haiti for a long time before these disasters. They know the people and culture and can better determine what they really need than anyone that just arrived.
What I like about Oxfam is their comprehensiveness and durability. They address all sorts of issues simultaneously. It's the kind of organization that deserves to have its funding multiplied a hundred or thousand fold.
I also like that they are not afraid to get political and call out corporations for accelerating climate change and stealing land from indigenous people in the global south. Many charities care only about direct alleviation of difficult conditions, but Oxfam recognizes that these difficult conditions are manmade and political in origin, rather than some kind of engineering or logistics problem merely. In short, they tackle the roots causes while still addressing the immediate needs, and do both very well.
