Just 5 points, 8 hour phase (if you sleep 8 hours every night, I hate you)

I just noticed the new order history as text, and I just wanted to say that. It's very useful to know about support orders for moves that didn't happen, etc. So thank j00 :D

It's called Train of Thought, the bet is 113, and the time between phases is set for 36 hours.

Should make for a good game, so anyone who wants to play, join up!

-er, perhaps. If the Sword is very short, and the Pen very sharp. Anyways, new game open, 10 points, for you to prove which one is in fact, mightier.

This is a hypothetical situation.

Suppose England has armies in Denmark, Holland, and Kiel.
Suppose also that Russia has armies in Munich and Berlin.
Additionally, suppose that there is an Italian army in Ruhr.

The following orders are submitted:

(Italy)
A Ruhr stands.

(England)
A Denmark supports A Holland-Kiel.
A Holland-Kiel.
A Kiel-Ruhr.

(Russia)
A Berlin supports A Munich-Kiel.
A Munich-Kiel.

If none of the supporting moves are cut, is the army in Kiel dislodged?

Ok so I've just learned that I may be without internet for a week starting in about 18 hours. Can anyone sit for me? I have only 3 games and 2 are near completion. Just post your e-mail and I'll send you my login and a short description of my intents in each game.

The PageRank bar I'm using puts the main page at a 3. Not too impressive, but...

say that there is an army in livonia and a fleet in norway... i know that the fleet can support the army into st.p, but can the army support the fleet into st.p, even though it can only go to the north coast?

I know I might be insisting a bit too much on this, but it's getting more and more annoying... not only Aero is allied with Led Julio in all his three games (the fourth being a country he just took from CD). In the game I am in, he has had a mathematic victory in his hands for two years now, but will not take it. And Led Julio trusts him so completely that he is not defending his SCs, even though by taking them Aero could win.

(the other games you can easily find from Aero's profile)
Shouldn't there be a way to prevent this way of playing?

D.

I played by mail years ago and just saw this site so thought I'd like to try. I am just a little confused about the following:
1 How are orders submitted? Where on the game does one find the GM listed or is it some other way?
2.I communicate with countries using their country tabs?
3.I see games with supply center counts and maps. Where would I find the specific centers owned by each country and how do I tell who owns which armies or fleets on a map?
These may be rudamentary to those of you who have been doing this a while, as things were when I played by mail, but I can't figure them out and would much appreciate it if someone would be so kind as to act as menton. I might even resist the tempatation to do something bad to you some day. Or I might not.
Thank you in advance.

The server had some downtime and was rebooted, it should be back to normal now

"Man to man is so unjust, children
You don't know who to trust
Your worst enemy could be your best friend
And your best friend your worst enemy

Some will eat and drink with you
Then behind them su-su 'pon you
Only your friend know your secrets
So only he could reveal it
And who the cap fit, let them wear it"

The site keeps letting me in and then failing to load/refresh...

I am losing moves through this.

Anyone else having trouble today?

Any takers?

its a 6hr a phase game, so its quite fact, if anyone is intersted please join up.

Sounds like anlari is out. Don't know if Rait is in or out. MajorTom claimed to be interested due to the others interested, which may have changed... I don't know what to think, but let's start a new list:

1. MadMarx

How do we get a draw declared ?
Bat Country: Spring 1916, Diplomacy
http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=4235

After 2 finished games (1 lost, 1 survived) I got back starting pots from both. What is the explanation about this?

I went and saw it at 12:01 opening night. Loved it.
Thoughts...

Oh my goodness. Obviously a sinister plot by some of the highest ranked players (....or should we say player!....) on the site. This is madness!

http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=4651

Just kidding around. But seriously, what is going on with this game? A new "no-moves-allowed" variant?

Game id: http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=4608&msgCountry=Global

France and England will be along to agree

Regards, Austria

Kestas,
please, could you draw the game http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=4608 - AUS, FRA and ENG have agreed in the public messageboard and will do so here.
10x

If I have 2 adjacent armies and they both support each other (hold), does that work? That was the way we always played the board game, but I note that the green hold line on the maps always has a bar near one end of it.
Does this mean that the support hold in <area> command only actually works if the army in <area> holds?
Or do 2 adjacent armies each supporting each other holding both have a strength of 2 , as long as the support isn't cut by another attack?

anlari, how about a 25 point WTA bet? Add your name to this list if interested and do feel free to join this game and the 101 point bet game too:

1. MadMarx

UK Time
http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=4437

All players have agreed to a draw.

Or even Global Press Only??

I should have more than a single point soon and would like to start up another game or two... Please post your interest here!!

The formatting on this site is completely messed up.
No graphics are showing up.
The fonts are all reduced to Times New Roman.
Is it just me (my computer)? Or is it a problem from the server side?

Cheers!

I'm not very happy that the icons of new messages & un-finalized moves changed to the text (new message, finalized etc.) - first of all, the game-tabs are now much wider, secondly, it is really hard to catch the situation with a quick look (it took me few moments before I figured out, which of the powers had sent me a message and it is very hard to differentiate the messages Finalized/ Not Finalized, if You take a look to the games section). So, if at all possible, I would gladly skip this upgrade & I would be happy if we would get the 'old good' icons back - at least in my opinion they were much better. Thanks.

We've completed the code merge with Facebook phpDip since they updated to 0.8, so now everyone gets the best features from both, I have less work to do when bugs happen, and more than twice the number of people enjoy the same code

We got a couple of nice features out of it too which Chris added to his ex-fork;
- Pagination for games listings, so you're not restricted to a limited number of games on the page
- Flexible phase lengths, so you can choose to play with 1 phase every hour, or 1 phase every 3 days. (This has been called for for a long time, not my favorite idea in the past but it seems every phpDip fork adds it so there must be something in it. Hell has froze over, I've eaten my hat, etc)

Kudos to Chris at Facebook

When all the orders are submitted, how long is there between the final submittal and the change of turn?
