Bug in Cold War?
In the new Cold War 2-player variant, fleets can move between Yugoslavia and West Germany. Either fix this issue or label it as a canal (such as Egypt or Panama)

Jack‘s SRG Tourney
Gentleman, many people have had disputes in 2014 so what better way to start 2015 then with a SRG tourney! Each round will have special rules and/or different victory criteria. What better way to put one over the people you hate by earning bragging rights here!
Note: A reliability Rating of >80 is required

Hi Jack, What are these special rules exactly? And how does the tournament work? (How many games? What move deadlines?)
Special rules are a surprise for now. Games will depend on how may people join. Im looking at 2 day phases

Jack - from experience it is generally a good idea to clearly outline what particular rules you plan on using when recruiting for a SRG.
Many different ideas. Treaties game tag team game. one weird idea where only ine person can be attacked at one time. anyone else had suggestions are welcome to suggest

Jack - you have heaps of ideas, how about defining one of them and running with it? that would be much easier don't you think? Tournaments are fun, but there needs to be rules put into place that govern them. For me I would not like to be involved in a tournament (which is quite a major time commitment) if I didn't know in advance what the rules are that govern it.

ie.
Tag Team game - how does this work? What exactly is a tag team? who decides who is ''tagged'' ?
Only one attack at a time - Again how does this work? who decides? etc...

A good place to start is to have a look at how previous SRGs and Tournaments have been played out @ vDip previously.

http://www.vdiplomacy.com/wiki/index.php?title=Tournaments_and_Special_Rule_Games
I'll play SRGS but not when the rules change at random as you go along. Pick a set and stick with it or publish a set with a schedule explaing when they change. It'd be like playing a poker tournament whereally each hand is declared to be Hold'em or Razz after the hand is already played...
My idea is like how they play survivor. Each episode has a different challenge
But the core rules of survivor don't change every episode. Just the challenges do. What you present would be like Jeff coming in every episode and saying "this week, the losing team votes someone off the winning team" and then the next week he says "you must vote for someone of the opposite sex" and the next week "you have to vote for someone with the same first initial as your own."
Srry for the confusiin
Yuo already have a survivor tourney thread. Why a second one?

How bad/ good idea would this be? I'm not sure, since Russia has a huge advantage, and England needs time to develop. Food for thought.

The Buttergoose tournament!!!
"I'm dying for tourneys on this site, I don't get enough."
This was a statement from Sandgoose. I find this as a plea for us to start a new tournament. I am thinking of a version similar to the Whittle Down Tourney:

Pirates variant: clipper 2-spaces movement doubts
I asked in the preliminary phase of the game and seems a lot of players have the same doubts about how does the 2-space movement works, particularly regarding the intermediate space, if this one is occupied or attacked. The rules are unclear.

An asymmetrical variant: Empire and Barbarians
In essence, a well-fortified and strong "Empire," played by two players, holds a large number of starting territories. The remaining players are Barbarians and start out with one (or a similarly low number) army on the outskirts of the board.
