er, make that: " moved from side to side"

Riffing Floyd lyrics this early in the day is a bit tricky at my age.

Russia just moved off of all their supply centers and allowed Austria to take them, winning the game. Was a good game otherwise.

about gray press
when playing diplomacy using white/gray press format does it change dramatically the game (in a poor sense) or does it make it more interesting and challenging.

im new at this game and in another site where i play there the option to play with gray press is available. I refuse to play because i find it hard to play as it is, imagine with this "gray press" to keep in mind too; too much.

so to the more experienced/veterans diplomacy players, do you find compatible the "gray press" option in the game or is it a total aberrration?

what do you think?

Will it work?
I've got 18 supply centers this round accidentally but I don't want to win the game so quickly... if I miss the reinforce phase & let myself keep 17 units instead of 18, will I not win the game?

Solution to meta gaming!
Players wishing to play more than one country per game should be encouraged to have seven accounts. Then all seven accounts can log into the same game and the player is gauranteed to win. Once the infantile impulse to win at everything has exhausted itself the player can delete all the accounts, start a new one and come and play with the adults.

loving diplomacy
im really happy i found this game. I been playing for more than 2 weeks and is being great experience. Not only for enjoying the game as it is but it have lead me to read books on topics i never dream of reading; "diplomacy" by henry kissinger and "48 laws of power" by robert greene. Both excelent books.

Im 40 years old and started late in this game but ..."Nunca es tarde cuando la dicha es buena".

Idea
I was wondering if there were any past examples of diplomacy games with no communication between players.

I think it would be quite interesting as there would be much more guess work and alliances would be formed in a primal style.

What do you think?

POSSIBLE BUG
I´m playing with Turkey. I have an army in Rumania, one more army in Bulgaria, and a fleet in Black Sea.
I´m trying to support from Rumania the attack from Bulgaria to Sevastopol by convoy in Black Sea; but i only can choose between support the attack from Ukraine or Black Sea.
When i choosed the Black Sea, system thought that i was trying to attack from Black Sea and not by convoy from Bulgaria.
How can be this?

Can players disband units in the very first move of a new game?
I am asking because I have been experimenting with a variant where each player starts with one less SC than the usual (each player's own choice). Easy to do on a board...

The purpose being to challenge each player as to whether building up their SC count at home is better than foreign expansion at such an early stage...

Future changes
Lots of complaints and so on that are repeating themselves, and some things that I should probably clarify so everyone knows which complaints I've taken on board

In the next release of phpDip there will be adjudicator improvements, and also these to address the more common complaints:
- The ability to choose whether a game is "winner takes all" or "points per unit", or "no points"
- Abandon game button (it would encourage game dropping without the points system, but with the points system it makes sense)
- More compatible chat-box CSS
- Moderator status, mods can ban users and see possible multi-account signs, and draw games
- Some kind of forum change to make it more organized and clear

I'll addd this to the FAQ when I get a chance

Adjudication issues
Can someone please tell me what rules are not completely implemented by the phpDiplomacy adjudicator, and what work-arounds, if any, exist? (For instance, I have heard that convoys involving multiple fleets is problematic.) If this information is alrady available somewhere, please provide a link.

Thanks very much.

Game Countries
So im just curious, I have played in about 12 games total since I signed up here, and the Last 4 games in a row I have been choses for Germany. In all the games I've played, except for one where I got Russia, I have been France, Germany, or Italy, nothing else. Is this a code error, or just a really weird coincidence?

something unbelievable!
in http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gid=1926&msgmembershipid=11295, I am Turkey and I helped Germany to wipe out Austria in the Spring move, but after he got Warsaw in the fall move, he moved out of Trieste, so it remains as a Austria territory, but the Gamemaster already wiped out Austria, so can it still build units?

QUICK QUESTION...
I am Russia, and I have a fleet in the Black Sea and an army in Sevestapol. Turkey has a fleet in both Ankara and Armenia. Now he is undoubtly going to support himself into the Black Sea. However, if my fleet in the Black Sea attacks Ankara, and my army in Sevestapol attacks Armenia, will everything bounce? Because I attacked the supporting unit in both cases, so shouldn't it be a 1:1 bounce?
