not fair

http://vdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=26506 I start play here with Spain.If you see no messenger in game , but now see that same players make same order/give themselves support/.Like Italy give Germany support for attack France and some another....I don't like similar game.
If have messenger in game OK everything will be perfect , but some player to make alliance before game.....no thank you .
I left this game

You know... You CAN make alliances in-game without using words. It's hard, but it can be done.

Now in game yes it a hard , but I suspect alliances is make before game start .

That too.

Instead of abandoning it, you should have notified the Mods. They can check for signs that there was alliances before the game start and they will ban players if the find evidence of it.

Devonian (1887 )

That was a pretty safe bet that Germany was going to attack France. Italy could have easily guess it and supported it.

Should have used the David Bowie/Jared, the Goblin King quote:

You say that so often, I wonder what your basis for comparison is.

Chumbles (1380 )

Fact is, in gunboat games you CAN support, co-operate without messages. A meaningless support can indicate a willingness to ally, if both players are good sand they are defending, the moves are often obvious. You simply predict best play for bot powers and then support or move expecting support following that best play. Your problems start if your ally is a nonce!

"Your problems start if your ally is a nonce" - what, like that time I took St.P from you while you were pulling back to fight France in that Gunboat Fog game a few months back? :p

Strider (1604 )

I've looked at the maps and you can see reach out supports from many players indicating the willingness to work together. Sometimes a leap of faith is made. A movemade without support is then repeated then supported.

You can get lucky that the other player picks up on intention as well.

I dunno mouse, I don't have a very small notebook where feel the need to record my very few triumphs... ;¬)

G-Man (2466 )

While I want to say it just looks like a smart move by Italy, since Italy can't move MIL or use it any other more beneficial way. And he can see France has moved on Germany on all major fronts and that Germany would likely counter by attacking MUN, even if only to hold position. I do wonder how Italy guessed MUN - SWI and not TYR - SWI? Just lucky? Do you have other examples?

Reliability Question

In general, I love the idea of the reliability score, and how it helps to keep games from being ruined by sore losers/less-committed players.

However, I think the formula may need a tweak as it is unintentionally punishing long-time players (like myself).

Mod-paused games

Hey Mods, could you please tell us, when pausing a game, why you are pausing that game, and for how long. For example, I am in a game called NMS war. It has been paused be you, mods, for more than a week with no explanation and no end in sight. When you send the message to a game that you are pausing it, could you include why, and for how long? Thank you for reading this.

Max. turns?

How is the number of turns counted? How many turn are there on a year: 2, 3, 5 or does it vary between 2 and 5 depending on if there are retreats and builds? I hope it does not vary since I want to specify "end after build 1908".

Where's the EU check-in vis a vis Slowness of vDip website of late

Previously, vDip website requested check-in at sign on - required by European Union, Oli said. Altho all objected we complied. Wouldn't you agree that this website is overloaded or too slow to process recently & that if the Mods agree, we jettison Forum? Hands up who'll use the [phew!] other Diplomacy gaming forums. (& don't those non-vDip specific inquiries belong on 'zine sites & the 'zine's successors' sites: Diplomacy World &c., &c.?
