diplom.org down?
diplom.org used to be the centre of the online Diplomacy community. Even long past its prime it held tons of interesting resources, variant files, articles, etc. For the last few weeks I haven't had any luck loading the site. Does anybody have any idea what's up?

Luckily, most of it is backed up by the Wayback Machine, hopefully that never disappears: https://web.archive.org/web/20161020130534/http://www.diplom.org/

Some of the variants don't tell you much...
Classic Cataclysm, for instance. It has a home page in Russian and our variant page says nothing. Some one want to enlighten?

Error when clicking on top-level "Games"
Error triggered: Not-paused game process-time values incorrectly set..

This was probably caused by a software bug. The details of this error have been successfully logged and will be attended to by a developer.

Yes. Yes I do.
Define long... Love 2 days or no weekend processing on one day. 3 day is fine, but longer than that is too slow.

I refuse to participate in any game that has a phase length under 36 hours. I could do no weekend processing on one day, but some games are just way too big to do in even that time frame (like Gobble-Earth or Haven).
Certainly different players will have different ideas about what constitutes a long phase length. I play mostly 2-day phases here, and on webdip I play a lot of 3-day gunboats. 3 days and more is what is consider a long phase game. The question is, what are you looking for, Unstupid?

I could be interested in a 3-5 day phase game with or without weekends off.

I remember accidently joining some games with cannonfodder. The guy made games at 10-day phases and never, ever, ever readied his orders...

I would be willing to join a long phase game. I generally have joined short phases, but recently my time has been getting short so I think I'll join some longer phases now.

I find that long phases games loses any sense of immediacy with regards to diplomacy. Some people log in so infrequently that there is no sense of back and forth dialogue to build an understanding. The pleasure of seeing a turn resolved, for better or worse, is diluted by how long it takes for it to be processed, then there is another 3 day+ wait just for one player's retreats etc.
Unstupid (1058 D)
08 Dec 16 UTC
I tend to only join or create 7/10 day phase games. There is only one exception for me (Bourse). It allows me more freedom, and the games can be 1 day/phaae if everyone readies up - I would argue that it creates a more fluid game and allows for more tactical ploys later on. But then again, I tend to login once/twice a day so for people who login more often, 1 day/phase may have the same result
yoak (1079 D)
08 Dec 16 UTC
I try to keep my minimum to 1.5 days, though I occasionally end up in 24 hours games. If someone wants to start one with a longer timeframe, I'd join. I'm looking for another early-stage / starting game at the moment.

Diplomacy Supreme (WWIV Game) software bug
During the procession of moves this morning, the game experienced a software bug and about half an hour later the map came up with the phase length saying "Crashed". Apparently a mod/developer needs to look at it to fix it. Is there someone who can help us out?

Election of a man who has groped women and stiffed workers to be President.
I would suggest that a large part of the reason why Clinton lost is because of her dishonesty, a strong anti-establishment backlash and a perception of personal corruption.

However, I would like us to think about what we have done in electing Trump to be President.

Thank you to all the men and women who served not only on the front line, but back at home as well. They all did us a great service. Let us pay respects to front line soldiers on both sides as they were just men following orders and doing what they could for their country.

So the idea is to set up a team gunboat with four or six players in total, two or three per team.
They play a normal team gunboat, last team alive wins.
