Gunboat - Potentially dumb question
How are gunboat rules enforced? I don't see any option when creating a game for making a gunboat game, so what stops people from communicating?

Can a moderator please pause this game?
http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=9023

Turkey was away for a few days, everyone voted for a pause except Germany, who is away but didn't CD yet. Turkey is now back (and lost rumania in his absence), but we'd like the game to be paused anyway because Italy's getting a baby, which sounds to me as a pretty convincing reason to pause the game. Can a mod please pause this game? Thanks.

Should there be a limit to the amount of games you can join?
I'm in a game at the moment with a chap who's playing 15 (fifteen!) games in total, and both I and others in the game have noticed this has effected his ability to diplome. He says a few words to his direct neighbours and stays completely silent with his non-neighbours, and I and some other players have already discussed how this is effecting the game in a negative fashion. Should there be a limit to how many games people can join to make sure they have enough time to play the game properly?

Diplomacy Simulators?
Does anyone know of any Diplomacy simulators online? One where I could input the current positions of all pieces on the board and then enter orders for each country to see what would happen?
WhiteSammy (100 D)
25 Mar 09 UTC
yes....you can use this site makes a pretty good simulator when you play with 6 of yourselves
WhiteSammy (100 D)
25 Mar 09 UTC
but that would be unnecessary since this game is a basic game of numbers which should be relatively easy for your brain to crunch
WhiteSammy (100 D)
25 Mar 09 UTC
to answer your question seriously
i have not seen or heard of a diplomacy simulator

although if you look hard enough through the 5000 games that have already been played im pretty sure that you could find one remotely similar to the scenario you are wanting to create

"diplo" or "realpolitik"... search for them on google you can download them they are very cool programs used by almost all PBEM players/sites...

As people say jDip is used for this a lot, but personally I would suggest you just get into the habbit of doing it in your head. Not only does it save you setting up a modelling program, it also helps you get a 'feel' for what a situation will be able to do. By this I mean that if you adjudicate a situation for yourself it helps you get to grips with just which units are the critical ones, where the weak points are etc.

Thanks for both suggestions.

I need to get more familiar with the map first before doing things in my head, but I have a decent grasp of the geography of the south-eastern areas. (Played Italy twice and Austria once)

There are few programs you can download.

Online version (no download required);
http://www.stabbeurfou.org/
http://gamesbyemail.com/Games/Politics/Judge

You can not easily edit the last one. Downloading a program is probably a better idea:
- jDip
- DipTool
- Realpolitik

Head-on battles
I'm just wondering about a rule in Diplomacy. If I support move somewhere, and someone else supports move from that place to the place of mine that is moving, with equal support, do we both just not move, do we swap, or what?

Thanks!

The most annoying thing that can happen I believe
Don't you hate it when there's that guy in a game that just screws up your plans for no conceivable reason? Maybe he won't speak to you, negotiate, or maybe they're an appeaser.

Newbie with a rules question:
Hi. I've noticed that you can only build new units in your original home supply centres. What happens if you lose all your home supply centres, but are still gaining territory abroad - are you prevented from creating new units unless you can re-gain your home SC's?
