Game paused for banned player wh was already dead- mods please restart
Mods, game 6221 was paused because N1ghthawk was banned. He was already dead in our game.

I think this raises an interesting issue. If only one account of his is in there then obviously the game should go on.
However, in games where there are multiple cheating accounts, is it fair to continue the game once the multi has been removed? For example, if Italy and Turkey are the same player, it would be nigh impossible for Austria to survive into their downfall. Thus just continuing the game once the culprit has been removed seems rather unfair to me...

I only see one banned account, who else in this game are you referring to Fig?
figlesquidge (2131 D)

Sorry, I was talking in the general situation. There are hundreds of threads going round on the forum as it is, so I thought I'd add my point to this one. I guess it's slightly off-topic though sorry!

Well if the game is paused people do have time to /draw the game if they want, it's up to them because it needs to be decided on a case-by-case basis.

This is a bug Dingleberry, thanks for pointing that out I'll fix it later. For now I've unpaused
figlesquidge (2131 D)
03 Nov 08 UTC
Well, it is certainly a bug in the current format, but I do think it's a bit unfair. I'm not saying I can think of a perfect solution, but if you are exterminated by someone multi-accounting or meta-gaming then you'd have a good case to feel really annoyed, particularly if it was a high-cost game. You could set every game to restart, but that would take a long time, and would you do so for finished games.
Perhaps exterminated players should be removed from the game so they can take over the CD spaces?
An interesting problem

Not sure what you mean, this is how it currently happens right?
GuanShao (537 D)
03 Nov 08 UTC
No, once you're eliminated from a game, you can't come back and take over a CD person.
Kestas, can you please fix that game again. Turkey typed /unpause, and it shows him voting for a pause. The phase is now set to end in 14000+ days.
kestasjk (64 DMod(P))
04 Nov 08 UTC
Looks like there are a couple of bugs to fix in the mod CP
dangermouse (5551 D)
04 Nov 08 UTC
Turkey can always type /unpause again to change his vote.
Chrispminis (916 D)
04 Nov 08 UTC
Yeah... I had no idea that banning players forced a pause in the game. I was wondering what everyone was going on about...
Dangermouse, he typed /Unpause and it registered as pause.
kestasjk (64 DMod(P))
04 Nov 08 UTC
Probably should have mentioned that banning a player pauses all the games they're in :-x oops

Also regarding /unpause registering as /pause, that's a bit of a trick because they both actually do the same thing. Essentially both commands just toggle pause, so if you've voted for a pause or unpause then /pause or /unpause will switch your vote off, if you haven't voted it'll switch you on. I think the same goes for /draw and /undraw. It just makes the code a little neater
Kestas, if you check the Global chat you will find this is untrue. Turkey NEVER typed Pause. The first time he typed /unpause, it registered as a Pause.
kestasjk (64 DMod(P))
04 Nov 08 UTC
/pause and /unpause do the same thing Dingleberry, give it a try
But which does it do first? When I did /unpause, the response was "DingleberryJones has voted to unpause."

When Turkey typed the same this, the response was" destp has voted for a pause."
kestasjk (64 DMod(P))
04 Nov 08 UTC
If it's paused then both /pause and /unpause will toggle your unpause vote, if it isn't paused then both /pause and /unpause will toggle pause. (Because there's no point voting for a pause if it's already paused)
kestasjk (64 DMod(P))

This may be one of those cases where it's easier to read the code than explain it:

Do you guys remember the first megathread? By that I mean the first to top 100 posts. I think it was about poltical alignment. Before that the 50 or 60 some-odd threads about historical figures playing diplomacy seemed huge, but not so much now.

Face-to-Face versus Online ?
Has anybody played both 'versions' of the game often enough to comment on the differences in play, i.e. in negotiations?
Do you find people are more likely to stab sitting miles away behind a computer screen?
Does it hinder negotiations to have to write in text without facing your friend/foe eye to eye?

Online Election Game
I'm not a big poster in forums. I usually have just enough time to do my moves before time runs out, so you haven't seen any messages from me here before. I am writing now because I would like to tell you about a new project I have recently put online. Inspired by the presidential elections this year I decided to set up a website about elections and create an online election game.

Downtime
I think we went down for a while, so I added 2 hours onto all the games. I'll post the response to the support ticket when I get it :-(

In a future version it'll detect when there has been downtime and delay processing, so no-one will miss out on turns. For now hope no-one missed out, apologies if you did

What's your favorite country to play and why?
I like Germany, because of the variety of options you have as a player. Obviously its central location can be problematic, but with the right use of diplomacy it can be a very adaptable, flexible country that can benefit from any combination of weak/strong countries around the board, as long as its player is adequate.
