Retreat Phase Suggestion

I know this has been brought up before, but I don't remember if there was support or not so I'll bring it up again. If a unit is dislodged and has no retreat options can we please change the code so a forced disband is automatic? It's incredibly annoying to wait on somebody to order his forced disband.

Bug?

http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=6952

This seems pretty basic, but there's either a bug, or I don't understand the rules? Take a look at the Iberian peninsula. Shouldn't the English attack on Spain cut the support to Mid-Atlantic Ocean?

what do you think?

"Researchers are now working on "soldier bots" which would be able to identify targets, weapons and distinguish between enemy forces like tanks or armed men and soft targets like ambulances or civilians."

sounds cool - but the slant about war crimes rather than soldier safey is a little odd. I mean really, that's number 1 on people's minds? that American soldiers commit way too many "war crimes" and need to be replaced by more "ethical" robots. That's fuckin stupid. But I like the idea of "remote" robotic soldiers that are controlled by real soldiers. "autonomous" though? I would have thought that between 2001 - ASO, Battle Star Gallactica, War Games and
the Terminator movies we'd have learned our lesson

But if no-ones getting killed in wars, surely that kind of takes away the biggest reason not to go to war?

@glorious - the people who decide whether to go to war or not, tend not to get killed as it is. So I doubt this will make a major difference in that regard.

What it will do is lead to more accidents like bombing hospitals with so-called smart bombs. At best, a "soldier bot" will be as good as the person controlling it; more likely, it'll lead to weapons being further removed from human judgement and control therefore leading to more chance that the wrong people get killed.

Remotes are already in use just the next step. Just hope the enemy does not learn how to confuse or take control of them. It would be like the war elephants stampeding at the wrong troops.

Paused Games

My game got paused because Germany got banned. We all said /unpaused but Italy hasn't said it yet, so it hasn't unpaused. Is it just going to stay in limbo forever or what?

Games don't draw while paused?

http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=6969
The game got screwed up because of a failed attempt to pause (which later passed); we then voted to draw and were told the draw would come into effect in 5 minutes, but it hasn't happened and our best guess is that that the game can't be drawn while paused.

(a) that seems wrong. If we've voted to draw, then it should come into effect regardless of a pause. (b) can we get the game ended?

GFDT needs your help!

A player has had to drop out of the tournament in the early years of round 1. Is there any soul out there willing to take up his mantle and carry on the struggle for him?

Links to the games will be in the first post. If you're willing to take up these positions, drop me a line at [email protected] ASAP. It'd be a pity to play a tournament game with a CD.
