CDed units destroys
Could somebody answer -- are units of CDed countries destroyed totally randomly?
I used to think that according to rules first should be removed units which do not keep any sc's.

Enlarging the text/message screen
Just a quick query. Would there be any way to choose to enlarge the text/message screen within games so that you could see more of a long message at one time .. rather than having to scroll down a few lines at a time?

Cold War!
Hello people of vdip! Safari and I are getting close to finishing up our 2 player variant: Cold War. It's on the lab right now, but as you know, as a two player map its very important we get the balance right. It'd be great if you guys would create some games and play them out for us. The more data we have the better. Much appreciated!

Quick Classic Game Needs You
Hey all -- I've always to try a game that ends in a certain number of turns (in this case, 7). "Winning player is decided by who has the most SCs after that turn's diplomacy phase." If you're up for playing a game with a ticking time bomb, please join.

Trapped! SRG
Hi all,

This SRG (Special Rules Game, although in this case it's a little more like a Special Rules Tournament (SRT) as there will be multiple games involved) is an idea I had a while ago, which is based on an old children's TV show here in the UK (called Trapped!). I've adapted it to work in a Diplomacy setting so I could try it out here.
Captainmeme (1400 D Mod (B))
02 Mar 14 UTC
Basic Overview:

Participants take part in a series of games on different variants, each game having one less player in it than the game before. This is because each round one player is eliminated. The tournament continues until there are only two players left, at which point the player with the highest point score out of these two wins.

In each game, there is one objective that must be completed. Only a hint at the objective will be given to all players, not the full objective - for example, if the objective was 'Get an English unit to Munich before 1906', the hint might be something along the lines of 'This objective involves a German Territory, and must be completed by the end of 1905'. The hints are deliberately not very helpful, so players will have to use trial and error to try to complete the objective.

One player will be randomly selected at the beginning of every round to be the 'Saboteur'. Nobody apart from the Saboteur knows who the Saboteur is. This player is told what the objective is, and must make sure that the objective is not completed.

At the end of the round, everyone is told what the objective was and whether it has been completed or not, and have one more phase to talk to everyone and discuss who they think the saboteur was. At the end of this phase, all players must PM me with who they think the saboteur was.

If the objective was completed, the saboteur is eliminated regardless of the voting results. If it was not, the player with the most votes is eliminated. The points are then distributed - one point to anyone who voted for the saboteur, and two points for the saboteur if they are not eliminated. All non-eliminated players will then proceed to the next game.

When only two players remain, the remaining player with the most points wins.

So, anyone up for this? There's no fixed number of players (more players just means more rounds) so any number of people can join. If anyone has any questions about the rules, please feel free to ask.

Up for this.
Captainmeme (1400 D Mod (B))
02 Mar 14 UTC
Oh, two more things I just remembered:
1) All games will be unranked
2) If there's a draw in voting, another round of voting starts where you can only vote for the people who drew. If this also results in a draw, the elimination will be selected randomly.

Thanks for expressing interest, steephie :)

This is still open for more people to join if you want to!

@Lukas - The TV show was probably based on the card game; I hadn't heard of the card game before so I took the idea from the show :)

@mma - Yes, he can. If he succeeds, the person who gets the majority of votes is eliminated, and this can still be him. Also with regard to numbers of players (also @Spartan here), since there's a variant for every number between 15 and 3 players I'll cap the number of people able to join at 15 and so we shouldn't have a problem there. If nobody more joins, I'll start with under 15 players, but 15 is the maximum.

How long are the phases going to be? I can't sign up for less then 1 1/2 days, I need the longer phase every few months to not miss out on getting orders in..
To clarify, if it's at least a day+ phase I'd like to join.

The phase length hasn't been decided yet - that'll be down to player preference. It certainly won't be any less than 1 day/phase (probably will be 1 day 12 hours) so I'll put you down :)

The first game will be on the Fantasy map - you'll all receive your invites via PM shortly. Once everyone's in the game the saboteur role will be allocated and the objective will be set.
^__^ (1003 D)
15 Mar 14 UTC
So will the game end if we don't achieve our goals? also, will we don't will at be cancelled after the turn to discuss the saboteur?
steephie22 (933 D)
15 Mar 14 UTC
@^_^: that makes most sense, but since it's not a ranked game it doesn't really matter that much what happens to it once the goal is achieved/not achieved I'd say. Still, we should probably cancel/draw/concede.
^__^ (1003 D)
15 Mar 14 UTC
we could keep playing just for fun though, and we could also start the net round at the same time, without ending.
keep playing for fun is good enough, since it is a series of unrated games anyway

Support Issue
On GobbleEarth, I am trying to move Honduras (North Coast) to Caribbean. When I order it supported by Cuba. When I look at the move preview, it does not show the yellow support line from Cuba attached to the red movement line from Honduras (North Coast). It has it attached to another gray line also going from Honduras to Caribbean.

Why is that?
