Diplomacy on the Radio

I'm listening to an episode of the radio program "This American Life" about Diplomacy. Featuring the same guy who recently wrote the Diplomacy article on Grantland. Not sure if it's the current episode or a repeat, but I figured I'd mention it here for those interested. Should be available on podcast now or soon.

Oli, thank you for the color-blindness interface.

I have protonapia and this is awesome. That plus labeling the countries speaking global and the interactive map males it so much better and less confusing... Even on the phone (interactive doesn't let me interact but still shows what I ordered using the drop down).

New default Pot-Type WTA....

As the subject suggests.
To gather a bit more feedback about this issue I changed the default from PPSC to WTA and made a big announcement about this on the gamecreation-page.
This will last for the next few month and we will see if the games get better, worse, or if nobody cares.

No offense to anyone but im curious why mods are allowed to have multi accounts to test games. In this case, cant the average player have multiple accounts to experience the game played from different POVs as well?

General Cool (978 )

So are we going to have random assignment for every game? I think we should have random assignment for every game except Chaos. In Chaos what if Smyrna and Edinburgh were a team? Or maybe we should make teams for every variant before to make it as even as possible.

Petrarca (1316 )
17 Aug 13 UTC

Here we are:

1. Ninjanrd, Myself 538
2. DoubleCapitals, JacktheGiantSlayer
3. SandgooseXXI, Lukas Podolski
4. General Cool, Scordatura
5. Spartan22, Saiteron
6. La Rage, mukundc
7. DD, Petrarca

DD (1028 )

Personally I wouldn't like random assignment, I agree with Ninjanrd that the point is how a pre-decided team works together.

Ninjanrd (1248 )
17 Aug 13 UTC

What do the rest of you think? Personally I would prefer the pre-decided teams, but that's just me.

Petrarca (1316 )
17 Aug 13 UTC

I agree. I would like to play with whom I chose, not else. It is about working together, and that's more fun with a chosen teammate. And if we are Smyrna and Edinburgh... well, we should meet around St. Petersburg.

Ninjanrd (1248 )
17 Aug 13 UTC

I will go ahead and submit my suggested list of teams;
1. Edinburgh-Liverpool
2. Norway-St.Petersburg
3. Denmark-Sweden
4. Brest-London
5. Berlin-Kiel
6. Munich-Paris
7. Belgium-Holland
8. Portugal-Spain
9. Naples-Tunis
10. Marseilles-Rome
11. Trieste-Venice
12. Vienna-Budapest
13. Greece-Serbia
14. Moscow-Warsaw
15. Sevastopol-Rumania
16. Bulgaria-Constantinople
17. Ankara-Smyrna

Bonus points to those that get the history joke I made ^.^

Ninjanrd (1248 )

For chaos, any way.

General Cool (978 )

Ha I get it! You said Brest!

General Cool (978 )
17 Aug 13 UTC

Or is it the Denmark-Sweden team? that doesn't seem right.

Ninjanrd (1248 )
17 Aug 13 UTC

Every other team is alphabetical except the vienna-budapest team, because Austria is always backwards! Not a very good joke, I admit.

@ccga4: I found a partner for you! And that is fine, I trust you to put in orders.

@shadow2: We will start ASAP, unless that doesn't work for you.

@Tristan: Does "anyone" include ccga4?

ccga4 (1609 )

thanks, i'm fine with partnering with tristan :)

shadow2 (945 )

I am ready to start whenever. You said 36 hour phases though correct? Not too quick phases with school starting is all I ask. A 24 hour or 36 hour will be great though.

Ninjanrd (1248 )
20 Aug 13 UTC

Sounds good! We only need a few more teams, who else wants to join the team tournament?

Tristan (1258 )

I'm fine with ccga4 too :)

@ccga4: may we be successful in our joint venture :P

Is this metagaming?

Recently, I was playing an anon gunboat game. I submitted my orders in advance. Next time I connected, the deadline was 5 minutes away, and the player I was fighting with had not submitted orders yet: he was going NMR. Is taking advantage of the (likely) NMR ok, or is it considered metagaming?

Can't Play?

Hey y'all, I started playing diplomacy online a few months back and bit off more than I could chew at the time, resulting in a negative NoCD and a NoNMR of 71.88%. As far as I can tell this means I can't play or even start any games. I think my record since then shows I'm actually more reliable. Is there anyway I can play here again?
