Rules/etiquette question
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.

Here's a word for your google translate game... Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
This is the translation game -- you're looking for the nonsense or lengthly acronym game.
Doc - what would you expect from a guy called EFTBSTHGKAEIOUABCDEFG, or something like that.
...or the phobias game.

this game is hilarious already!
I propose a "choice translation" list where we post in the forum the most interesting translations. Obviously if it gives away a 1-to-1 play that keep it up your sleeve until later.
(you can't post your own choice translation, only anothers)

I noticed you can bypass translation if you use the all caps abbreviation for territory names (ie LIV, NTH, RUM, etc). This seems against the spirit of the game. What do people think about this? I'd propose that it's not allowed, but since the game has started, I fully realize introducing new rules may not be kosher.
kaner406 (2103 D Mod (B))
29 Apr 15 UTC
I think that this shouldn't be allowed. I love the ambiguity of the whole exercise and abbreviating for succinctness shouldn't be allowed.
Agreed.

Another gem from global:

Russia: Gentlemen, I want to tell you, pigs and dogs fuck wit, who is responsible for military operations in the so-called public official decapitation showed negligence check the order, does not work correctly with his admiral's ship communication can lead to serious misunderstandings välilläadmiralty and the military which eventually led to the quite amazing alternate, who is the most unexplored areas addressed to you will be pleased to know that dogs and pigs fuck wit has now been sent to this vast country can no longer reach the farthest abuse of this rogue force to defend, he said, "but the girl vest more comfortable due to better-alcoholic beverages, which is worked in Livonia"

Germany: WTF?

Russia: What taekwondo beans, I do not understand, I can assure you, as good as pigs and dogs are not understood means you've taken the Latvian dog feces sticker, you are constantly bombarded me now tell the truth between very serious misunderstanding!

Italy: ah, yes, what the German said.

Valis - we looked at Ackuna a little earlier. I'm interested in a future translation game with even more languages using it at a later date. But I'm a bit busy with my games at the moment.

( = after 43 translations later)

"ΒΑΛΉΣ Ackuna some of us, and we see it too, and I was wondering if you want to use in the future, is not a movement towards the future, but you're too busy."

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.

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?
