Confused
I played as the trolls (Light Green, upper-left corner of the map). Why didn't my fleet bounce the Pirates from the High Seas (Autumn, 1)?

Am I misunderstanding something?

"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?

Online Diplomacy Championship
A lot of you are active on webDip too, so apologies for making you read this twice, but we're trying to get a tournament with players from all around the internet started, and I'd love for any of you that aren't on/don't check webDip (and all of you who are as well) to join. More inside.

Hey, Butterhead
So Texas is seemingly looking hard only at Shaka Smart. Gregg Marshall from Wichita State is seemingly not being looked at in the same way. For all of the hoopla over the Final Four run, do you have any insight as to why Shaka Smart has never won a conference title in either the Colonial or a gutted Atlantic 10?

You should do well at this. I got 16 out of 18 and would have gotten about 3 out of 18 if I'd never played Diplomacy.

Teams Torunament (2v2 or 2v2v2)
This would require special adjudication in the end game, I guess, but the idea sounds interesting. Anyone else interested. Please don't come in spouting how it isn't real diplomacy. Some of us don't care. We just want to have fun playing a game that uses the fundamental rules set of Diplomacy.

kaner406 (2061 D Mod (B))
22 Sep 14 UTC
Greek Diplomacy would be a good one, because of the unique build phase - so we can let the game choose what countries we are going to be, and still be able to have a home SC near your teammate if needed...
I'd rather keep it to three teams a set so every team can play a combination once. More than that and the tournament takes too long.

Get three more to pair up and the top 2 from each round 1 can move o round two where the winners compete 2v2 for the championship in round 3.
Mapu (2086 D (B))

What's to stop 2 teams to just arbitrarily team up and eliminate the 3rd team in order to get to the next round?
Ok, so two rounds only. Winner goes to second round where that winner is the victor. The other possibility is the games are anon and the mod who sets the nations tells each player who his partner is but he doesn't know anything beyond that and the nations fall where they may except that no team can play the exact same two nations twice.
Mapu (2086 D (B))
23 Sep 14 UTC
Oh that's interesting. And players are not allowed to reveal who their partner is to anyone else?

2 games of Greek Dip - Anonymous. A moderator tells each player who their team member is. The game is set to 100% of the SCs to win (so that a team needs to eliminate the whole board for a win).

Except for our teammate?
kaner406 (2061 D Mod (B))
23 Sep 14 UTC
These are valid points - in my experience with SRGs it is VERY important to have clear and concise rules for players to follow.
I think revealing who the partner is could be fine, as could keeping it a secret. Both have interesting effects. The first just prevents metagaming between teams, but the second really adds a twist into it.

I was thinking 3 sets of 2v2v2 with a second round of 2v2v2 where the winner is victor and the losers pls a 2v2 for second.
But there is plenty to consider the other way as well.

YCHTT - I'm easy. As you originally suggeted it, and no one else seems to have strong feelings, I suggest that you decide what you want to do, otherwise we'll never reach a decision!
I'd like to get to 9 teams before we start as I really think the 3 team nearly anon (you know who your teammate is but nothing more) and a "winners progress" so two formal rounds of play with a third consolation round to decide who gets second and who gets third.

Each round will be three games played simultaneously so players won't be able to deduce which team is which nation set based on what nation set they already played. Solo is 7 D, draw is 6 D divided by those in the draw. So a solo *should* get you to the top but if another team solos a game and draws a third or solos the other two, it's not guaranteed. Any ties in point go to total SC count in games the team won or drew only. A concede will assume the wining team took all SCs and a solo requires the winning team to take all the SCs.

Games will be set as 100% of the SCs required to win. It will be against the rules to reveal your team in game through words. Also, no player will get the same nation twice and no team will get the same nation combo, but the nation combinations will vary from game to game so there won't be any way to deduce who will be working together on your opponents. This end up several possible ploys to male it look like one nation is another nations ally and get the third team to attack on.misinformation.

Again, I repeat, there will be *no* revealing of who is who in the game.

Sound good to everyone?
