Recruiting for a World Diplomacy IX/X game
I have tried the advertising thread for a few times but was in vain, and I don't want to spam that thread every now and then pushing my game so I am going to do it here.

I haven't made up my mind as to whether it's press or gunboat but once we have 17 people we can then decide. I tend to make the game unrated if that would attract more people.

Draws impact on vdip rating
Do the number of centers a nation has when a draw happens impact the number of vdip-rating points?

Ex: Do I get more points as a 5 center turkey in a draw or a 17 center turkey in a draw? (assuming all other variables in the rating calculation are held constant)

Ties?
If you are playing a map such as Imperial Diplomacy II which has a win condition of 70 centers (out of a total 172). What happens if two people get exactly 70 centers in the same year?

No building Game
I am considering putting on a game with one special rule: You may not build. You have to win by force disbanding your opponents units (and then racing to the SC goal)
Would anyone be interested?

Canton isn't eight-player, and it isn't particularly well-balanced either.

It needed to be 8-player becuase there is only one Australia map.

idea
i suppose i could ask this here. im thinking of creating a diplomacy discord server. one of the games on it will be vDIp along with conspiracy, web dip, and diplicity. would you guys be interested in joining for the vdip section? it certainly would not be anything like a full fledged Vdip server. just something to help set up fun games and fill games like these. i just want to gauge the interest of the community first.

Big Hitters vDip game
I'm interested in creating a new game for players with 2000+ vDip points. Password protected.

If you meet this criteria let me know here that you're interested. Once we know how many players, we can decide which variant etc.

An issue with the interactive map
I note that in the interactive map it's not uncommon for the icon that cancels the order to hide the territory I'd like to select. I think this reduces interactive map usability especially in maps with smaller territories (Imperial Dip is a clear example). A simple solution would be to move the icon further away from the selected unit. I don't know how complicated it would be to implement this change tho.
