Is anyone able to even read where all those arrows are going?

Shadoweh · « **Reply #121 on:** August 18, 2011, 12:16:31 AM »

No, absolutely not.
WHAT'S GOING ON UP THERE?!?

Dormio you aren't supposed to fire nukes blindly into the horizon; it doesn't work that way.

Also, who is supposed to be retreating and from where?

PX · « **Reply #123 on:** August 18, 2011, 12:35:46 AM »

Bardiche has been usurped as Second in Command by Hero999. *pachipachipachi*

>.<

Why do I keep forgetting these things.....anyway, England has to retreat their fleet from Holland, Germany has to retreat their Fleet from Denmark and Army from Austria and Italy has to retreat their Fleet from TYR.

Does anyone know what happened to Bard?

Conqueror · « **Reply #126 on:** August 18, 2011, 12:59:24 AM »

You killed Bardiche! You scoundrel!

Hero999 · « **Reply #127 on:** August 18, 2011, 01:17:58 AM »

I am Hero999, I have fought through the ranks, and have finally usurped Bardiche and obtained the Title of Second In Command!

Bow Before my greatness for I shall lead my Army to VICTORY!

Doll.S CUBE · « **Reply #128 on:** August 18, 2011, 07:32:46 AM »

Hmm, I think I should explain this. While talking to PX about his orders, he's apparently going to be away for a while and with Bard missing, Hero is going to be taking Bards place and will be in charge of England for a while. So if you need to make deals with England after PX is gone, you have to send your PMs to Hero.....I feel weird explaining this, like I'm not supposed too.....

Is this weird?

Schezo · « **Reply #129 on:** August 18, 2011, 08:13:25 AM »

Um, no

A player spot is not here to participate in a vital part of the game. If there is someone else who will take over doing that, it needs to be common knowledge, since we could sit here like idiots trying to communicate with a player spot that isn't going to respond within the phase. So yeah.

Conqueror · « **Reply #130 on:** August 18, 2011, 08:31:06 AM »

Basically it's just a replacement. No biggie. :V

Replacement? Looks more like a holiday substitution.

However,...

F Den ? Ham

Na als dann!

Kasu · « **Reply #132 on:** August 18, 2011, 12:54:14 PM »

I was gonna post this tomorrow, but I figured I might as well post it now.

I'm gonna be away from Friday evening 'til sometime Sunday afternoon, though I should still be able to send orders depending on when the next deadline is. It shouldn't be too tight, but just an FYI in case I'm a little late.

Schezo · « **Reply #139 on:** August 23, 2011, 12:31:42 AM »

Just set the deadline at a time when you are able to do it.

Conqueror · « **Reply #140 on:** August 23, 2011, 01:12:02 AM »

Hey DollS, what would you think of only allowing solo victories, or limited allied victories of ~2 people? The dynamics of Diplomacy changes completely when you allow allied victories of 4+ people.

Dormio Ergo Sum · « **Reply #141 on:** August 23, 2011, 01:13:22 AM »

Yeah, I'd like the draw condition to be limited to 2 people at most.

Doll.S CUBE · « **Reply #142 on:** August 23, 2011, 04:51:51 AM »

Quote from: From the OP

The victory condition for this map is for a country to own 33 supply centers. All active players can agree on a draw if they think this condition can not be achieved.

That means that if you are in a an alliance, you need to knock everyone off who's not in your alliance and then agree to a draw between the both of you. There is no limit.

Edit: Although if it's really obvious one player will win, you can't draw between your alliance and instead can give the victory to that player so we don't have to drag this out. Also, I encourage individual victory and more deception.

Conqueror · « **Reply #143 on:** August 23, 2011, 05:00:03 AM »

orz

In that case, I'll be heading over to America before the imminent wave engulfs the rest of Europe.

Because I don't see any way that's not happening.

Shadoweh · « **Reply #144 on:** August 23, 2011, 02:46:59 PM »

warning - choo choo I'm a train

I think you guys missed something obvious. The condition only works if the victory can't be achieved, IE if it's impossible for people to move against each other, not if seven people want to win together. Otherwise the game could end before it started.

ActionDan · « **Reply #145 on:** August 23, 2011, 03:09:12 PM »

Nah, I think you're "missing" seeing events unfold in the near future.
