The Roads NOT Taken--If You Weren't Doing What You Are Right Now...?
Simple question--

If you weren't doing or majoring in whatever it is your profession or major is now, what wold you have chosen? What was that 2nd Road that seemed so tantalizing, maybe...but you took Road #1 instead, (bonus points for--why?) :)

The site needs a banner.
We are having far too many cheating accusations on the forum. It would be nice if it was stated clearly and visibly that it should not happen.

I was thinking about accusing someone of cheating, via the proper channels, then I realized they were just a terrible player.

@smcbride - Wbhy would you want to accuse yourself of cheating? ;-)
fortknox (2059 D)

There is a reason contact info is hard to find, YJ.
We want people to read the FAQ to get most of their questions answered before we get assaulted with email.

Cheating in diplomacy is idiotic. It wastes everyone's time because always win if you cheat and there is no excitement of diplomacy.

Unfortunately I have 4 of the same people in 2 of my games - there are only so many games and people want to play in 5 or 6 and have them all start that day will end up with at least 1 other same person.

that sounded like you just accused people of multi's...which they just said not to do
smcbride1983 (517 D)
02 May 12 UTC
Draugnar, it is an extreme example of reverse psychology. Play like shit, then accuse yourself of cheating so the other players... wait that doesn't work at all.
Draugnar (0 DX)
02 May 12 UTC
@brain - I don't think he was accusing them of anything, merely pointing out that if you play a certain style of game at a certain time of day, you wind up with at least a few repeat opponents in your games. It was just an observation, poorly worded, on dhoff's part.

@krellin - Cheat and make it obvious, then they can accuse you of cheating. :-)
Alderian (2425 D(S))
02 May 12 UTC
@krellin, to expand on Draugnar's suggestion, you could get the same result without cheating too. Just join every game I join and always throw the game to me.

Why do we need more banners? I thought that was a job for the Mods
krellin (80 DX)
03 May 12 UTC
Obvious cheating is too obvious. I looking to be accused of cheating in a manner which will cause a cloud of scandal and drag down any number of people with me.

But Alderian has an idea. Actually, I am prone to *always* support Austria and try to make them, at least, survive. IN a way, that could be considered meta-gaming, because I feel sympathy for the poor fool playing that destitute position. It's almost as bad as being a 12 year old in a Penn State locker room...

Best Webdip Chess Player?
I think it would be interesting to find out who the best chess player on webdip is and see if there is any correlation between that and their GR. Though they would likely be very good at tactics, I know a lot of people who are good at chess and socially awkward, which I would think would make them less likely to be able to effectively negotiate.

What are your thoughts? Would anyone be interested in setting up some type of chess tournament?

There is no strategy for Austria
When Turkey, Italy and Russia attack you there is no strategy to survive. I would even say that if two of the three attack you and there is no third person who tries to ally with you, you just die. Does anyone have a successful history with Austria? its my least favorite starting point because there is basically no hope for a win
