- I don't know which of my other friends are on WebDiplomacy so PM me so I can add you. If you know me don't join cat games. If I have deleted your name from the list, then we probably don't talk anymore it's not that I don't love you, it's just that your existence means nothing to me
I MAKE THE CAT GAMES THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!

A collection of quotes about Diplomacy which really cover everything:
Diplomacy is the art of saying 'Nice doggie' until you can find a rock.
-Will Rogers
A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman's birthday but never remembers her age.
-Robert Frost
Diplomacy is the art of telling people to go to hell in such a way that they ask for directions.
-Winston Churchill
Please kill Yanik, he is really annoying.
-(Insert any WebDipper ever)
Also, on my Record there are many CDs, but those are mostly due to temporary bans (the subject of miscommunication and misunderstandings between myself and the moderators). I have worked myself up to a high percentile for RR so judge me off of that if you will at all.

Reliability Explained:
Reliability is how consistently you avoid interrupting games. Any un-excused missed turns hurt your rating. If you have any un-excused missed turns in the last 4 weeks you will receive an 11% penalty to your RR for each of those delays. It is very important to everyone you are playing with to be reliable but we understand mistakes happen so this extra penalty will drop to 5% after 28 days. All of the un-excused missed turns that negatively impact your rating are highlighted in red below. Excused delays will only negatively impact your base score, seen below. Mod excused delays do not hurt your score in any way. Live Game: If a game had phases 60 minutes long or less any excused missed turns will only impact your rating for 28 days total. The penalty is the same, 5% long term and 6% short term, except the long term penalty is for 28 days and the short term is for 7 days. System Excused: If you had an "excused missed turn" left this will be yes and will not cause additional penalties against your rating. Mod Excused: If a moderator excused the missed turn this field will be yes and will not cause additional penalties against your rating. Same Period Excused: If you have multiple un-excused missed turns in a 24 hour period you are only penalized once with the exception of live games, if this field is yes it will not cause additional penalties against your rating.
Many games are made with a minimum rating requirement so this may impact the quality of games you can enter. If you have more then 3 non-live un-excused missed turns in a year you will begin getting temporarily banned from making new games, joining existing games, or rejoining your own games.
