Radicals vs ?
A recent conversation made me look once more at what i think of politics...

Also i have a clear idea in my head if what a radical is, but what is their opposite? A non-radical? A (small c) conservative? A compromiser?

Oh, just fair warning: a solo in this game may or may not result in a modship for the winner. I don't know if that's an incentive or a disincentive, but there it is. :)

Don't forget that the Inaugural Boston Backbiter Bully Boy Bottle (Batch 54; Bottle 138) is still up for grabs. Given to she or he who solos a MADip F2F game. (If under 21 (which is a real possibility in our scene!) it shall be presented to their legal guardian or on their 21st birthday.)

Site Issue
Hey everyone - our DNS host has gone offline, which means that some users won't be able to get to the site (depending on whether or not their local DNS server has cached webdip's address).

I'm not sure how long this will go on for, but I've paused adjudication until it is fixed.

Geomagnetic Storm
If you are anywhere in the northern third of the United States or Canada, the aurora should be very visible tonight with clear (and dark, outside of cities) skies due to an ongoing geomagnetic storm. Check it out if you can.

Password protected games
So passwords should make sure only invited players join a game ... but sometimes the gametitle gives a very strong hint towards what the password might be... anyone else sometimes tempted to test if a hunch is right? And I wonder about how the mods would react to someone sneaking into a private game by guessing the password ...

Average fleets to solo?
I'm thinking of pulling some stats on the number of fleets that each country usually has in a solo (I think Tru did something similar a while back, but we've had a lot more games finished since then). But, before I do that, let's argue about it on the forum!

Who wants to guess at the average number of fleets each country has in a WTA solo?

Gun Boat for Beginners
Just wondering if there are ways to cooperate without talking? Does anyone ever throw support by guessing and then establish alliances without talking? I am in a game where I have not attacked one front, and they have not attacked me, but no one expects help so there is no planning. Just wondering if there are some patterns or codes people use... or does that defeat the point of playing gunboat?

A GAME Site..,so I am told...
So I have had a few run-ins with the mods. Fair enough...I deservewhat they give me. But I am told that this is PRIMARILY A GAMING SITE, and that my negative forum behavior negatively impacts the GAME SITE. SO......I have noticed that there are a few forum *INSTIGATORS* - FREQUENT FORUM POSTERS who DO NOT PLAY GAMES. Who is with me that the privilege of using the FORUMS should be tied to PLAYING GAMES ON THIS GAME SITE???

Linguistic Harbingers of Betrayal
So I just saw this interesting paper analyzing 249 online diplomacy games, with around 145,000 messages. They're studying which linguistic cues (number of messages, sentiment, politeness, etc) predict upcoming betrayal. Best part: they're going to make all the data available online! http://vene.ro/betrayal/ and http://vene.ro/betrayal/niculae15betrayal.pdf
