Question on Support (hopefully not duplicate -- not seen)

I've been told here A can support B supporting C -- in a string. Long ago I learned (we lost rules) that if A wants to support C, it should be touching it or where it wants to go. . .that if B is attacked, C's support will be lost because you can't "Support a Support". . .you can only support an Attack, COnvoy, Hold, etc. -- need answer soon.. .

Please unpause game

Mods, could you please unpause this game? France got banned for cheating, we got a new France, and Italy hasn't been online since Tuesday. Everyone else has unpaused.

Secret Votes

php and playDip have what is called 'open voting'. It is more common to have hidden voting with the results only known.

EdiBirsan (1469 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

In the Tournament World FtF as well as in other sites to have hidden votes with only the Accepted or Defeated result known. Some places keep a record of the votes that is revealed at the end of the game only so that players can verify that there was no bug. (Stabbeurfou).
Considering that players here seem to be calling for the allowance of Miss order I was wondering if there was a call for the operation of a code change to allow for votes on draws to be hidden?
Personally I prefer the open votes because I like to manipulate peer group pressure, but I am in a small minority amongst veteran players who like the sneakiness and torment that comes with voting down the draws again and again and again to drag out a game and blame someone else.

What do you all think about it?

djbent (2572 )

i believe it's been stated that this will be in the next update to the site, secret votes.

Glorious93 (901 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

I would agree with you, I prefer open votes (assuming it applies to pausing as well). I would have thought someone is a lot more likely to refuse to pause for someone's holidays and pick up a few easy centers if no-one knew it was them.

Glorious93 (901 )

I hope that makes sense... it seems a bit jumbled, reading it back.

Edi was talking just about draws, not pauses.

Chrispminis (916 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

I think I'd like open votes for pauses, but secret votes for draws.

Centurian (3257 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

I agree with Chrisp. Secret votes for pauses are out of the question, but a secret draw vote could be interesting.

Glorious93 (901 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

Ah right - well in that case, I see nothing wrong with secret votes for draws.

Chrispminis (916 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

Well, I think Edi is really just talking about secret votes for draws. I don't think secret votes for pauses are even in question.

groverloaf (1381 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

I would prefer open draw votes. I think it adds an interesting element to the game--if 3 players want a draw and the 4th doesn't, then the 4th is facing being ganged up on. That said, I would think that draws would be LESS common if they were secret, for the converse reason.

jbalcorn (429 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

I prefer the open voting, but I'd be ok with secret draw votes. Pause votes, however, need to be open. I want to know who's being a dick.

aoe3rules (949 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

I strongly agree with Chrispminis - complete secret voting would result in complete lack of knowledge of who had not voted to pause, so people would not be able to post on the forum, "Player X is the only one who has not voted to pause, and s/he has not logged on in a week anyway", or "Player X is the only one who has not voted to unpause, and since they're in CD, this game will never continue". If that were the case, mods would never know they had to fix certain problems.

EdiBirsan (1469 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

I am only talking about draw or concession votes. Not pauses.

aoe3rules (949 )
19 Jun 09 UTC

Haha, okay, but first we're going to have to *implement* concession votes.

Germany was banned and went CD. All players either voted to unpause or have already finalized their moves and have not checked in on the game.

Convoy's into the Baltic and beyond

I don't really think you should be able to convoy over land. But I hate that you can't convoy directly into the Baltic and beyond. The only way I see to fix this is letting you convoy through Denmark of Kiel (Giving them a lot of strategic importance) or (The better solution) make Denmark, Ska, Baltic, and Swe all connect at a 4 way intersection.

Which do you all think is better? Is it a problem at all? this personally drives me insane...

Out-there idea for a new phpDip release

As the Mods here know, this is a second account (my other account being "cteno4"), but given my account's purpose they allowed me to continue playing on it so long as I joined no more games.

What about creating a feature for having second accounts strictly for the purpose of CD takeovers? That should let players improve game balance without giving up their own points to do it. You'd have to link it to your first account, certainly.

Two questions

Let's say a fleet is happily convoying an army over and it becomes attacked. Let's say that the fleet that is convoying is supported by a friendly unit. Will it continue to convoy the army?
