So I guess the new nazi modding policies have resulted in my staying over here now.

Mod multis
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?

I'd still argue about that finals game. It seems incredible unwise to play a 7 player map with only 6 players, as the balance is going to be completely blown up. Add in teams, and you could have a very unbalanced situation.
ccga4 (1609 D)
25 Mar 14 UTC
np B-RICH and drano019, what do you suggest instead?
drano019 (2710 D Mod)
07 Apr 14 UTC
Wow. Apparently I missed the response to this. I suggested Mars or Youngstown WWII since those are at least designed 6 player maps.
ccga4 (1609 D)
07 Apr 14 UTC
Alright well I don't see why one of those maps won't work.
Youngstown WWII gets my vote.
ccga4 (1609 D)
07 Apr 14 UTC
I suppose the ones actually participating in the final will have to make the vote on what variant :)

(Not that you won't DR, but we don't know that you will for sure yet)
drano019 (2710 D Mod)
07 Apr 14 UTC
For what it's worth, I'd vote for Youngstown WWII as well. Mars might be a bit crazy for people especially if they're playing it for the first time.

The winners bracket game finished, with Dr. Recommend/BRICH, Leif_Syverson/drano019, ccga4/Tristan and La Rage/ mukundc advancing. Sadly GOD/The Ambassador, aningera/stinker will be going to the losers bracket.
As suggested towards the end of the game, I'd like to suggest we consider some changes to the loser bracket. While I stayed strong throughout the game, from memory 3 players CD'ed (2 of whom were losers, 1 a winner strangley.) It seems odd in my books to keep things going where winners who CD are rewarded and losers who continue on are penalised, especially to the same extent as the losers who CD.

Perhaps CD'ing "winners" shouldn't continue or alternatively get rid of the losers bracket entirely.

Just putting it out there for comment.
mukundc (1087 D)
19 May 14 UTC
Hey guys really sorry about this. Was going through a rough patch and ended up CD'ing. Is you guys allow it I would still love to play in this tournament. Won't mess up again.
Mapu (2086 D (B))
20 May 14 UTC
He won't mess up again until he messes up again. That is all that can be guaranteed.
I guess I was a bit pissed that my team member put a reasonable effort in to lobby me to continue playing the Tourney when I had too much on in real life. I felt guilty and agreed to play. Then not to far into the game he CD's and I haven't heard boo from him since. As flagged others CDed and it seems silly to have a "losers" bracket where most of the losers are so unreliable they CD (putting aside the "winner" who CD'ed!). Let's just call this tourney what it is. A great idea at the start, but now as its clear we have some dedicated players who do well, let them play on but cut the rest of us out.
GOD (1850 D Mod (B))

Uhm Ambassador wasn't I your teammate? Can't remember CDing o.O
El Cremoso (1728 D)
21 Jul 14 UTC
so, from i pulled the winners from the two games (results below). The only issue is 3rd place in the Loser Bracket game. Lukas Podolski was the last surviving active player, but Grand Admiral Thrawn had 3 SCs, but had resigned and left the game two turns earlier. i will leave it to ccga4, but I think that means Lukas moves on.

Winners Bracket:
1 - Dr. Recommended and B-RICH94
2 - drano019 and Leif_Syverson
3 - Tristan and ccga4
4 - La rage and mukundc
5 - GOD and The Ambassador
6 - aningera and Stinker l


Losers Bracket:
1 - Ninjanrd and Darkarus
2 - El Cremoso and Scordatura
3 - Lukas Podolski and Double Capitals
4 - Petrarca and *Grand General Thrawn
5 - Immagonnalose and ^_^
6 - Spartan22 and Tiger

Based on those results, this would be the next round of games, with really strong, reliable players across the board. Hope we can get this going soon.

Round 3, Winner Bracket Top 4
Europe 1939
Dr. Recommended and B-RICH94
drano019 and Leif_Syverson
Tristan and ccga4
La rage and mukundc

Round 3, Losers Bracket
Modern Dip II
GOD and The Ambassador
aningera and Stinker l
Ninjanrd and Darkarus
El Cremoso and Scordatura
Lukas Podolski and Double Capitals

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?

Out of Curiosity
I know we have a fair number of George R. R. Martin fans on the dip sites, I'm just wondering if we have any JRR Tolkien and/or Brandon Sanderson fans here. I'm thinking there's some great possibility for new maps/game ideas.

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?

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.

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!
