Hey Oli, I am writing this msg to the forum in case anyone can offer advice on the coding, which I am clueless, and since you were busy with the ranking codes.
In an effort to compromise the pro-ads versus anti-ads for games: Post here for your non-live games to cut down on the number of ads but still advertise games. Post game link, WTA or PPSC, and the bet. Note: this doesn't count for special rules games.
I tried to install the webserver on a local server for testing purposes and ran into some problems: 1) the documentations do not seem to match the downloaded folder 2) it seems like there are .sql files missing 3) when installing all .sql-files manually (in order) the webserver gives the following error message: "Error triggered: Unknown column 'u.showCountryNamesMap' in 'field list'."
I have been trying awfully hard to get a anon WWIV game started. For my third try, I shall start a forum to get at least 25-30 people committed. Post here with your commitment, the game will be anonymous random country assignment, so it shouldnt matter if anyone sees your name, but if you want to remain a little more anon, just PM me
Appears to be a problem in the coding of the Youngstown World War II map
I'm currently playing Italy in a Youngstown World War II map, and I've run into a problem. The supply zone of Tirane is very obviously drawn so that it's adjacent to the Ionian Sea, but the game will not let me order a movement from the Ionian into Tirane.
I've got exams this week so could a kind soul please, please sit for me until Saturday. I'm only in two games so it shouldn't be too much of a burden. I'm trying to get an extend for the WWIV team game I am in, though, so I'm not sure if I need sitting for that yet.
Please join. The variant looks really kooky, and I haven't had adequate experience with the zany full-press version yet. I did England once and just got mauled...
Greetings to all the men and women of VDip! I had an idea that I think will help us grow as a community, and get to know each other better. I'd like to know more about you! Feel free to give as much, or as little, detail as you wish. things you can include would be your birthday, age, location, career/schooling, etc. etc. This will help us bond with each other, as well as get some good stats on the demographics on the site!
Oli won. On Imperial Civilization's off-topic thread (link inside), there was a brief stint of Second to Last Person to Post Wins. Now that the thread is closed, Oli won.
does anybody know what the place in between PARis and BELgium is on the World War IV map? http://vdiplomacy.net/variants/WWIV/cache/sampleMapLarge.png is it neutral? non-existant on its own (if so: part of what is it?)? does it have a name not seen on the map?
"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:
What is the general rule on chat being offensive? How do we deal with it? I am involved in a game whee I have moved against a player expecting me to be his ally and he has come back with %** %**!!.
Knowing each other/cooperating in an anonymous game
I am playing a game where the parties are meant to be anonymous and there have been moves that take careful coordination by two of the parties against me. Is there any way to look into this?
This is not a reference to any specific game, but I find it incredibly annoying that people do not check the SCs to win and continue to fight each other while someone else conquers easily.
I'm the last one for sure to view this vid from Commander Chris Hadfield, but if someone else really missed this gem on youtube check out this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=KaOC9danxNo
