Anon full press game. I think I know who another player is. Is it cheating to attack a third player with the trust I have in this person based on their moves in the current game and past reputation?

Existential question from GOD?...
So as a bit of joke, GOD asked in an unrelated thread "What is love?" It was meant to illicit a response allusive of a music lyric. I throw out the actual question with my added subtext of how do we label our personal experiences with collective titles. Am I the only person who questions whether the "emotions" or "feelings" I attaches basic collectively defined nouns to even resemble what the words "mean" to the collective humanity? So "What is love?" but also "What is human?"

This thread is for people to confess sins safely and anonymously.

My confession is that I usually pee in the pool. Saves time, and who wants to get out to pee? The pool deck is cold.

Classic Chaos?
I'm trying to start a game of Classic Chaos and have posted already on a new games thread, but I felt that to ever hope of reaching enough players, it needs more publicity. I had some people sign up but they've now left so if there aren't any takers this time, I'll take the hint and give up but please if anyone's interested, I really love to give this variant a try, it looks like such fun.

Games like vDiplomacy, but also TripleA?
I'm looking for a game that has vDiplomacy's simultaneous turns, asynchronous multiplayer, and ideally a light or in-browser UI, BUT also has a much more complex game system (not to say that Diplomacy is bad because it is simple, but rather that I'd like an alternative).

BENCHMARK GB TOURNAMENT
Hi all, I’d like to check if there's some interest for this 20-players Tournament idea.
In case we got a few people less or many people more, I could change within a few days the structure to adapt it to the new number, but the ideal number would be 20. More to follow.

Potential Fix for Convoy Orders

Country assignment
I do not know how many of you played on the "diplomacy judges" of old...

But I was wondering if someone might be interested in introducing the semi-random country assignment that they used, and whether it's doable from the point of view of the code.

Ambassador, I was responding to Battalion's idea that he switch personalities for everyone halfway through, but perhaps I misunderstood that, that would be a random switch.
No worries G-Man.
Battalion (2386 D)
06 Mar 15 UTC
To be clear, when you send me your list of identities, please send the list of personality numbers, e.g. #1 for Everybody wants to Rule the world (in order of preference), not the name of the personality - it will make it easier for me.

DoubleCapitals

Apologies if you've done so but Battalion hasn't cross posted to say that's the case.

It's just Kaner406 we're waiting for now. I've PMed him, so hopefully all we be set in motion soon...
Cool, I know when he accepted he said he was pretty busy up until Tuesday. That's today (Australian time) so I expect we should hear from him in the next 24 hours or so roughly.
Ok Battalion has got back to me and all personality requests are in.

Just waiting on confirmation of what country I'm playing as then I can create the game and let everyone know the password and game ID. Battalion will then let you know your personality and the country you'll need to pick for the game. Hopefully not long now peoples!
Ok the game is now up and running at gameID=22551

A reminder, do not join the game/select your country until AFTER Battalion has let you know via PM your extreme personality & your country.

As the game creator I will also PM the password to everyone.

I'd say good luck, but it's not about winning. So how about, as they say in the entertainment business, break a leg!
Pretty sure I just PMed players the password. If I f^cked up and missed you out! blame the lovely bottle of red I just drank and let me know and I'll try sending again...
Battalion (2386 D)

Everyone should now have received their nation and personality from me. Let me know if there are any problems!
Only 1 player left to join!
For more than your usual level of swearing and intimidation than any other Dip game, drop by Extreme Personalities and read the already hilarious diatribes coming from players - gameID=22551

More talk of shit lists, croissants, duel to the death challenges, Trotskyites, anti-popes, and claiming all the sea than you can poke a stick at. Oh and the word f^ck used in one account almost every two words.

I can't see it when I'm on the board
I don't think visitors can see the public press tab. Kind of a pity, so we'll have to post *all* of it here when the game is done or, with everyone's permission, post it after each phase, one phase at a time.

Thanks kaner for that!
Replacement needed for Wagadu!

If you wanted to play the Extreme Personalities game you can still get in. Wagadu is in a good position (not that winning matters in this variant.)

Plus you can put in your top 3 options with the Games Master and see what personality you'll get!

The final approved Extreme Personalities are listed in the last large post near the bottom of page two of this thread. Keep in mind 14 of them are taken, but if you send your top 3 choices to the GM, Battalion, I'd bet your likely to walk away with one of those.

"Draw" games?
How to end a game in a multi-player draw? Is it possible on this site? If so, where is it documented. Is there a way to grant "proxy" to another player for any period of time? Where would that be documented? Is that enough questions for one post?
