To any of the Mods: Please help!!

http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=5894
This game has been paused for two days straight now due to Blackheath Wanderer's banning, and he has no supply centres left. Not to mention everyone has finalized their orders, and the only person left to vote to unpause has not logged on since Tuesday morning. Please help us!

Epic Threads Question

Is there an easy way to jump to the bottom of epic threads ? For example, 'Dow jones fell 500' now has 194 replies, and it's a pain to always scroll down to the last reply!

Not an official one, but if you use 'Find' (F3 normally) and search for "Close thread" you'll go to the bottom.
I would expect adding #postbox to the url would have the same effect. However, for now this has not been officially implemented.
SUGGESTION: Add a link beside the thread title that links to the postbox for that thread!

I'd support a ban on Epic Threads. I imagine they irritate a lot of people, and all the bitterness sometimes ruins my day. The forum's really for advertising games anyway, right?

I don't know what the forum has been originally designed for, but as a matter of facts, it's home to a lot of interesting discussions, which are part of the richness of this community, IMO.

The discussion here definitely greatly adds to the value of the site. Not necessarily the subject matter, but the community.

@Chrisp - Exactly, the discussions, and the somewhat archaic forum design, foster real community. As a newbie, you pretty much HAVE to depend on the forum to learn you're way around, and as you get more experienced and get to know the characters the discussion threads become very interesting.

I was just looking for some easier way to get to the last post in a thread, not complaining about long threads. I tend to enjoy long involved discussions.

@Figle - Hey, that F3 suggestion worked great. Thanks! just what I was looking for.

Mine seems to be sending my directly to the last post on any given thread, Did someone change it to do that, or does my computer just really love me?

Kestas definitely just implemented a new feature! Takes you to the first new message in the thread! Genius!

DeliciousWolf (112 )

Oh Wow! I was just going to post about that. I have two lap-tops, one is XP and one is Vista, and I thought the XP was doing something new. If this really is a new feature - it's GENIUS. Kestas FTW.

Question re Convoys

I'm a bit new at the rule functions on here. How does the convoy work? Do I need to use a fleet and an army? Does it count as one or two units when attacking? How far can it go?

Another technical question

Sorry if this is a bad place to post this. I couldn't find an answer to this in the rule book.
Can one order a unit to support hold a unit which is ordered to move but is expected to stand off and remain in the province?

a possible error?

In my orders I supported a german army from warsaw - moscow.
The support was cut (this was no problem here) however the map didn't represent the fact that the order was actually ordered!

Ghost Fleet - Disbanded fleet bug?

I disbanded a Fleet in Spain, yet in Spring 1905 the map still displays the fleet as being there. While I appreciate the cleverness of my forces in building mock units to discourage my enemies attacks, surely this is some sort of program bug? I've noticed this in some other games I've played, too.

Convoying Question

So I was thinking about Convoys. Something I don't do very often, but probably should use more often. A question popped into my head, and I'm asking the community to be sure I'm right about how they work.

Multi-account accusation

I've decided that all of you are multi-accounters bound to the single purpose of fooling me. To fix this, I propose a mass ban of every player except for me and Kestasjk.

Opening Moves

Countries often have the choice of opening aggressively against their neighbour or playing it more neutral with more options but less early expansion opportunity. What is the better strategy?

Ex. Turkey opening to Armenia or not.

ESCALATION /When you don't have 7 players and a learning method.

I invented this in January 1966 after I could not get 7 players together to play my Christmas Present. Throughout January my best friend and I played it just about every day. It was the best tactical learning tool as well as a solution to the problem of 7.
