Bugs
After collecting a good haul of error-logs over the last few days I've been able to fix a few problems that have been occurring:

28 Jul 09 UTC

The problem with games not processing when everyone is finalized should be fixed, also there was a problem with invalid cookies not being removed properly, a certain old game was causing errors because two users were set to the same country, the control panel was having problems with auto-banning users because a reason wasn't being provided, a syntax warning was displayed on user registration that's now gone, and there were a couple of other small bugs showing up that have been resolved

Thanks for your patience, we're slowly chipping away at the problems and things should become pretty stable quickly at this rate

You were defeated, and lost your bet, but you have been refunded 5 to make up your starting 100; better luck next time!

This bug is still here :)
It happened this morning.

Ah shoot, Dingle... I was hoping you'd forget about that one. :-)

Troodonte; what game was that, what was expected etc? Fixing bugs which dont result in error-logs is a bit like taking a drink from a firehose at the moment, I must have missed this and need more details now

DJ; Ive restored that game, I restored it before locally but hadn't transferred it across

Draugnar; Weren't you that guy who I spent a whole thread patiently explaining and reexplaining your stupid mistake? I'd appreciate you showing some of the same patience now for my stupid mistakes

If not, could you?

Thanks. Note: I'm not in it, but it is (or was) a league game.

@ Kestas - have you had time to look at our game 'tea parties' yet? The problem is detailed in thread: http://webdiplomacy.net/forum.php?viewthread=459905 which I posted on Friday.

Um, Kestas? I wasn't attacking you in any way... I was poking a little fun at Dingle. Sorry if you took offense. That's why I had posted anything about it any more. I figured you had your hands full and would get to it eventually.

P.S. Saw the doc yesterday morning, got a new med adjustment, feeling much calmer and less ready to rip someone a new one today. It's amazing how much just two doses of levothyroxin can correct an attitude when your thyroid isn't worth the genetic material it's made from.

28 Jul 09 UTC
TGM: I hadnt, Ill add that to the todo list

Troodonte; Ive fixed that problem, it wasn't factoring in the points you already had, just the points you had invested in games, so it thought people needed a boost when they didn't

Jamiet; So you want that game restored to Autumn 1909 diplomacy? Okay I'll do that, but I need to restore the other game first because that requires an older backup etc, hang tight

Draugnar; not sure if youre just pulling my chain any more, but no worries I must have misread you

@Kestas - 11521 is showing, but still says "rolling back" or something to that affect while saying the turn ends in 24 hours. Just so you are aware. Not pushing.
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 Jul 09 UTC
Not pulling your chain. Seriously hoped DINGLE had forgotten that game (well qusi seriously).

Of course, if you want to toll it already back to Spring 01... <grin>
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 Jul 09 UTC
grrrr "roll" and "all the way" not "already"
kestasjk (64 DMod(P))
28 Jul 09 UTC
Is it showing now? I forgot all about adding that to keep non-admins from seeing the game while I restored it
kestasjk (64 DMod(P))
28 Jul 09 UTC
Yup that should be okay now
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 Jul 09 UTC
Except it isn't rolled back far enough. It's still beyond the point where my unit autodisbanded for no orders entered.
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 Jul 09 UTC
That was the problem to begin with. The game crashed and then rsumed without me being able to issue a valid disband in the build phase.
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 Jul 09 UTC
Never mind, just a map caching thing. IT's right after all.

See, I'm much more reasonable when my meds are right...
Kestas, yes, our missing League game is now back.
(http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=11521#gamePanel)

For what its worth, Draugnar's comment 'Ah shoot, Dingle... I was hoping you'd forget about that one.' was aimed at me, not you. With the restoration of that game, now I get to play Kingmaker in our league; and he's not high on my priority list.

Okay 10876 done, 2 down one to go (for now..)

My only hope for any points is game 4...
Troodonte (3379 D)
28 Jul 09 UTC
@Kestas

I'm not sure what it means "open games", but I thought it was joinable games.
So, when you press that button it shows a lot of not joinable games.
Another thing, the order by which the games appear in someone's profile, ongoing mixed with finished.... maybe this should return to the way it was.

also needs seeing to.
Draugnar, I think you miss the important point. You being eliminated in G3 isnt important, but Russia winning G3 guarantees him one of the top 2 spots. And unless Ag is an idiot, he will make sure he is 2nd, leaving you fighting for a useless 3rd.

http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=12029 has crashed right at the final move.
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 Jul 09 UTC
Dingle, I didn't miss the point. My goal is to NOT be the one with no points. If I pull third, even if it isn't one of the two best thrids, I'll be happy. Considering how this all started out, points will make me happy. I haven't got any yet, yet Captain Dave does because of a poorly timed CD...
Odd that you would settle for a worthless 3rd when 2nd is still within reach. But thats just you I guess.
Draugnar (0 DX)
29 Jul 09 UTC
They thing is, I had no control over Game 3, so you played Kingmaker and I'll settle for what I can get. But I also get to play kingmaker in G4 by making certain AG gets six more points to be the true king (1st place) to GJD's duke.
Now I'm all sad I didn't get in the league with all this league speak.

Kestas, there still appears to be a bug related to points.

I had 490 D earlier today. Got a three way draw which was supposedly worth 12 D. But I'm now at 514 D which means I really got 24 D. Here is the game in question:

http://www.webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=11838

This issue was also posted by someone else a day or two ago where they had a three way draw of a 240 point pot and got 160 D instead of 80.

I have another game that I expect to draw later tonight/tomorrow. The pot is 39 D and it'll be a 4 way draw so that's 10 D apiece. We'll see if I jump to 524 or 534. Here is the game I'm expecting to draw soon:

The games have been uncrashed and seem to be doing okay, and I've fixed the open games tab displaying non-joinable games
kestasjk (64 DMod(P))
29 Jul 09 UTC
Currently looking at what is going on with the points, looks like the points won are being given twice. A log of points transactions are now kept so I'll be able to remove any free points people have been getting, but I need to find why they're being awarded first

Thanks kestas........

http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=12055 seems to be stuck at the end of the Autumn diplomacy phase. The deadline has come and gone, but no resolution of orders has occurred (coming up on 20 minutes after the deadline now)
smokybarnable (1141 D)

Of course, as soon as I sent that message, the orders were resolved. D'OH! Sorry to bother you. Again, thanks for all your help and hard work.

Kestas,

I am in game 12362. Obviously I earned and placed two build orders during the last phase, but only one completed properly. Can you please check the logs for the game and correct if possible? I have requested a game-pause until I receive a response.

Thanks!

Kestas,

We have a private game, gameID=12090. The game is only processing after the expiry of the normal 24 hr intervals, regardless of finalisation of orders. I know that similar bugs have been reported before, but it was claimed to be fixed. Just for letting you know, unfortunately it takes ages to see a retreat & build phase end.

Thanks,

András

What determines the order of countries in the game screen?
It seems to change and I cannot see an obvious pattern.

btw, I'm referring to the screen where we all put orders in ect, the bottom table lists each country with various details.

Historical Question
Why was Napoleon exiled instead of executed? Particularly after the escape from Elba and Waterloo, which clearly demonstrated that putting Napoleon by himself on an island and expecting him to stay there and behave himself was a really really bad idea.

Does webDip support "unwanted" convoys?
An unwanted convoy is when an army moves between two coastal areas, BEL-HOL for example, and another player's adjacent fleet convoys them, such as a fleet in NTH. This causes the army to move by convoy instead of by land, which could allow an opponent to avoid combat and take the army's starting point -- a HOL-BEL move to continue with the example.

Circling the Drain
A long time ally is circling the drain and has run into a unique problem. They have 8 centers but only 6 units and it doesn't seem like they will ever be able to get more than the current 6 due to constant warfare being on their centers.

Is it really a stab if you take a center that they currently aren't using to try and make sure that both of you aren't run over?
