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?

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)

Ok all, the games will begin soon!

I will start them up on Monday afternoon (AUS time), and then PM you with the join code and game you're in.

Applications are still open, and will remain as such until the games start. If you were on the list, but couldn't make it into the games due to numbers (needs a multiple of 8), I will tell you.

I bid you all the best of luck!
Sounds good to me, I'm looking forward to it starting.

The game is up now and post of you should have received the code (I know there was a spelling error in that message, it doesn't matter). Some of you haven't yet, it is coming, I just need to sort a few things out first.

Good luck!

We begin our world tour with the continent of Africa.

It is the second largest and second-most populous, after Asia. Full of culture and diverse ranges of people, and now, War!

You can watch the game unfold here:

As our tour continues, we move east, to the continent (and country) of Australia.

It's the smallest of the continents, but is the largest island in the world (it's where I live too). Some people consider the continent to also include New Zealand, Indonesia, and some pacific islands, but that's up to you. It's a lot less diverse than Africa, especially if you consider it only the island. Once home to home to hundreds of indigenous tribes, this map puts us right before the federation, when tensions are heating.

The game can be viewed here:
gameID=41594

Bets of luck!

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.

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.
