Mod Please Help with Unpause
http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=9098

England was CDed when all other countries voted for a pause. Before the pause started (within 5 minutes), a new England came in, but said that it was an accident and was leaving the game. All countries, except for England, have now voted to unpause, and the game has not yet proceeded. Can someone please manually unpause the game? England never voted for the pause and said he wanted to leave, even if it meant losing points.

Extra unit on board.
Could a mod look at this please? In game: http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=9655

England was just forced to disband two units out of four, but still seems to have three units on the board. The fleet in St.Pet shouldn't be there right?

i wouldn't worry about it. i had a streak of grey from my teens onward. it didn't advance until i was well past 30. In the meantime, it just added a lot of character.

Yikes. I knew a kid who had grey hairs near his ears when he was 10! I also know a guy who like went through puberty when he was 12 and had a full beard by 13. He's pretty short and he's balding right now despite being 18!

That said, I've got a couple of red and purple hairs because apparently black hair is really just dark reddish/purple.

I started losing my hair at 19 and I was scalp finally reasserted itself fully by the time I was 27. I always attributed it to Post Puberty Shock Syn-dome.

This one asian guy at my high school is half-gray... he studies wayyy too much, you ask me.
Chrispminis (916 D)
13 Apr 09 UTC
I would attribute that asian's greying to genetics and not to his study habits. Most high schools have at least one or more asians who study way too much and I haven't observed any pattern of greying, certainly not more than asians who don't study too much, like me.

I work with a number of Asian ladies in their late twenties who you'd swear were 16 or 17 and one Indian (from India) lady in her mid 50s who looks like she is in her late 30s at most. Eastern/Oriental women definitely maintain their natural looks much longer than their Western counterparts.

As far as grey goes, I started turning in my early 30s. I'm 43 and still have a lot of natural haircolor left, so I wouldn't be too over concerned with one grey hair at 19.
fortknox (2059 D)

It could be worse...

I, like Edi, started losing my hair at 19... unfortunately, unlike Edi, I'm almost bald up top, now...

The worst part? I, too, am graying (granted, I'm 32)... I was hoping that since I was balding so fast, I wouldn't have to worry about the grays... oh well...

Maybe the girls will think the graying makes you mature looking? That could work for you...

I had a gray hair when i was 12. A few here and there isn't a big deal, its when you get a clump in one area or a bunch all over the place at one time.

Chris, you are absolutely right about black hair really being dark red. If I don't shave for a week my beard hair looks red in light, despite the fact that I'm mostly southern Italian and don't have a redheaded relative in my family.

Question on Civil Disorder / AFK player
Hey guys, we have a player in a private game that has not turned in moves after the first move orders. We were wondering if there was anyway to replace him with another friend who wanted to play, or the conditions until the game basically does not wait for him to turn in moves. I believe this is called civil disorder yes? How long does it take to get into civil disorder? Thanks

Support Hold on Move
Just a question I was wondering about. If you move a army(1) into another army(2) (without support, thus does nothing), and army(3) tries to support hold army(1), does army(1) get the support hold bonus when someone tries to invade it with 1 army with 1 support army?

Embarrassed to ask...
.....but this is my first game here. How do the pull-down menus for the moves work? For example, if I want to move and chose that, where do I find the options for WHERE to move? The FAQ doesn't seem to give much detail on the mechanics of the site.

Thanks in advance!

Quit/Surrender option
I'm fairly new to this site, but in a few games already I've really seen the need for a surrender option. In these 48 hour turn games, it's unbearable to wait the full turn limit for retreats when the player is obviously giving up on the game. I know not everyone would use it, but for those who are nice enough to quit when they don't feel like playing instead of wasting all of our time i think it would be great.

Is it possible to start a private game over or delete it?
Hey guys, my friends and I have started a private game but we have a problem. The move deadline is soon and a player has dropped out. While i have a replacement i would rather not let that country hold for the first turn so is there anyway to delete the game or restart it so we can start with a fresh slate? thanks!
