Five-way game?

Hey, sorry to ask (as I assume this is addressed somewhere), but is there a way to elect to play a five player game (as in, I have four friends I want to play with).
Other sites allow this, but I like the webDiplomacy interface so I'd prefer to do it here if I can.

Obama: Ruthless or Clueless?

One of the big stories of Obama’s time in office was the death of Osama, which was widely regarded as a good thing despite no real effort being made to go down the arrest and trial route more normally associated with the good guys. Still, the way he was found raised a few eyebrows.

question re: convoys & support

If someone is convoying an army to a new location, and wants to support that move, do they need to support move form the army's location, or support move from the last sea location in the convoy chain?

Can we remove the Ancient Med. from this site?

It is a bad map, too lopsided and too few players to make the game any fun to play most, and by far, of the times...

Mr Gunboat EOG

http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=105641

Well played everyone. Fortunately France only dropped when a draw was certain. Austria was a very tough opponent, but with the start I had as Turkey and no way to coordinate with Russia and Italy I was able to blitz through the defenses. Was never really sure why so little progress could be made in the west.

Banning recently?

I returned to this site a few weeks ago after about a year's hiatus, and it appears to me that there has been a lot of banning of accounts recently. In at least three of the five games that I've been playing in the past week at least one player has been banned mid-game. Are the mods clamping down on metagaming or is this something that's just become standard fare while I've been away?

Solo-win / Draws

As somebody who's used to the original Dip rules, I always thought of Dip having one winner only. There is no second place. But here, I seem to have to get used to draws as a regular game ending. So I'm curious, what criteria do people have for draws? When to draw? When to solo?

Coastal Fleets and Armies

Alright, so say a fleet from Player A moves onto the coast of a territory. At the same time, an army from Player B moves into that same territory. Will they bounce? Or will the army take control? Or is it something else entirely?

Convoy into Landlocked Territories?

What it says on the tin - can a fleet in a coast area convoy an army into a landlock territory adjacent to the fleet?

IE, could fleets in the english channel and Brest move an army from London to Paris in one move?

"Superstars"

They prove to me over and over again that they simply aren't as good as the team they belong with. It's not just the big three American sports; hell, it's not just sports in the United States. Which superstar trade was the worst? And no, it's not Dwight Howard - not yet at least.

The psychology of lying

Can someone explain the real joy of lying to seek unfair advantage ....... is it a moral defect? What is the pleasure derived from winning by deception, especially when you gain nothing in status and no financial gain. I find it completely fascinating at what is gained, what does it do for the soul?

Another sad and senseless gun tragedy

4 heroes ...... 2 in hospital, 2 at the morgue

redhouse1938 (429 )
24 Dec 12 UTC

I'm sure there will be people in here any time soon claiming that the fire fighters shouldn't just bring fire hoses and ladders but also guns to defend themselves. I'm really done discussing these things here. Tragic as it is, the American people has itself to blame entirely for these events. Not the individual fire fighters of course. We're seeing such an insane form of self-inflicted suffering I have no time for it anymore. The solution is simply too obvious. Thread muted.

and if you suggest a dude could have done this with a knife to a crew of firefighters you need to get your head checked. This guy was only able to do this because he bought a gun

I'm with them, there's no reason to argue this bullshit anymore. There is clearly something very wrong here, and if you're too stupid to realize it, I pity you.

Alderian (2425 )
25 Dec 12 UTC

Note, I'm not arguing against gun control, it just bugs me when people put forth bad arguments.

SC: "This guy was only able to do this because he bought a gun "

The article indicates he spent 17 years in jail for killing his grandmother. As a convicted felon, I don't believe he would be able to buy a gun. Is that not correct?

SantaClausowitz (360 )
25 Dec 12 UTC

Excellent, he obtained a gun because it was available because guns are so loosely controlled. How on earth does that change my argument at all? It bugs me that there has to be some ind of dichotomy between a person obtaining a gun outside of purchasing it and purchasing it. I was wrong, how does that change the fact that this guy got his hands on a gun that was originally put out in the world by the free market, and continue to be pumped out in enormous numbers each and every day

Alderian, I, a 17-year-old freak, can go onto the Bass Pro Shops website right now and buy a gun. It's so easy to get around these "limits" in place.

Alderian (2425 )
25 Dec 12 UTC

SC, I believe my intent was indicated in my first post. You made a bad argument. Your new implied argument is much better. "This guy was only able to do this because he was able to easily and illegally get a hold of a gun."
