¿alguien quiere jugar un partido en español?
Yo quiero aprender la español y piense que a jugar en la idoma es un buen manera a aprender.

¿Hay otros que quiero jugar en español?
Claro, puedo ayudarte Devonian. Ojalá que la pagina en España ya existe. Hay algunas personas aquí en vdip que habla español. Mak? Leif? Javi?

Para practicar, evita los "translators from english"! La lengua inglesa no hace diferencia de masc/fem (in substantives, adjetives, articles...), y además las desinencias verbales son tan mas simples! (Also, some english manners are not usual in latin languages, as the use of the gerund, which is badly seen as "gerundism" when not used to refer to an ongoing action).
Thus, pay attention to:
> la idioma --> el idioma (fem. noun requires fem. article)
> un buen manera --> una buena manera (fem. noun requires fem. article and adjective)
> otros que quiero --> otros que quieren (plural noun requires verb in plural desination)
> ya existe --> aún existe (still/yet, from context)
> personas que habla --> personas que hablan (plural noun requires verb in plural desination)
> recuerdo eso sitio --> recuerdo ese sitio (demonstrative pronoun when there is no noun in the sentence)
> ayuda en buscando jugadores --> ayuda a buscar jugadores ("gerundism")
> los dificuldades --> las dificultades (fem. noun requires fem. article)

Gracias CCR. Soy un principante, pero no usaba un "traslator from english" (como google translate) para escribir esos frases. Esos son mi propios errors. :-)

Pero, despues yo escribía esos, yo verificaba lo que yo escribó. Ahora entiendo que google translate no verifica esos errors. Gracias.

Quiere participar en el partido?

Alistame.
Pero te aviso que yo cometo errores por la similitud del portugués con el español.
Porém aviso-te que eu cometo erros pela semelhança do português com o espanhol.

Latin languages are too difficult for anglo-saxon born speakers (and you are all forgiven, it is a pain for us, too). Exempli gratia, since in latin languages the verb forms agree to the referring subject in number, gender and degree, we don't need to repeat the personal pronouns (it may show up only once in the phrase, or even none if context allows it) - but the verbal desinence must be well placed.

Mm, note "despues" may mean 'after' or 'later'; without the pronoun, it means later, so the correct form includes a pronoun "que" (that).

Then... "Pero, despues QUE escribía esos, verificaba lo que escribí.
(the last verb is only possible in first person, so you don't even need to write 'yo' at all, but it is not wrong writing it - maybe once, before one of the first two other verbs, as writing it three times is a redundance for us)

obsolete Sengoku variant
Hi all, designer of Sengoku here. I would love to get the latest version of Sengoku in use on this system, as it is much more balanced. Found here: http://dipwiki.com/index.php?title=Sengoku
Even if the DP system, can't be used, the version at http://nairenvorbeck.angelfire.com/ is still better than the one in use currently. Poor Mori needs a fair chance :-) Anyone willing/able to help me get these implemented?

1 v 1 games on variant maps
I am not a coder (sic) so I was wondering how hard is/was it to code 1 v 1 games? Is it reasonable to think that variant maps (Modern, Ancient Med, etc) could be set up to create 1 v 1 games? The idea of having a larger group of countries to play against each other is intriguing. I just don't know if it possible, or doable.

How old school are you?
I am not very tech savvy so forgive me. I think I started dip on some RSS pages using Netscape at work in maybe 1996(?) does that make sense? All email based through Judges. What were they called? USDJ or something. I remember FROG but they all spoke French. Haha. I used to stand outside my office in the snow smoking a cig with a hand drawn map with about 100 crossing out for each phase using coloured pens. Ah web based interactive maps?!?! Luxury!!!

Napoleonic Variant, and the lack of neutral centers
I had the honor to play 'Napoleonic' back in the lab (an awful game as Spain by the way). I had a question back then which I ask here and now:

Why there are no neutral supply centers?

New Maps
I'm super new to the site and I was curious how new maps were made and/or submitted. I noticed a lot of the maps look a bit old and it got me thinking about what it would take to create a higher resolution version of a game map. Are there certain file formats a map must be in or is this all a responsibility for site admins only? Thanks!

Imperium Diplomacy
Under the variants, I noticed one called Imperium Diplomacy, but was not able to create a game using this variant. Is it a discontinued variant, or under a different name? It looks like an interesting one, especially the beginning turns.

Custom phase bug
This might be better in the Mods section, but I thouht I'd post here first to see if other users have any input.

I'm trying to create a new game with a custom phase length. When I select "Custom" from the drop-down menu, nothing happens. However, when I select "2 days, 2 hours", I've given the option to input a phase length. Hopefully this is an easy fix.

Tactics
In year one when you just meeting everyone, maybe there anonymous but for sure you don't know any of them. How do you know who to trust?
They can be lying through their teeth and text doesn't show tone of voice or eye contact so you have no idea. If you believe them they may stab you. If you don't you venture into a DMZ and piss them off. Ask around to others and you get rumors or nothing. This game seems so much better suited to face to face.

Classic Mini-Tourney - Is there interest?
I thought about making a mini-tourney - comprising a single game - using a similar scheme to most Face-to-Face scoring systems.

Basically it'll be a Classic game, running until Fall 1907 and a PPSC structure. The bet would be 100 points - for a ultimate pot worth 700 points.
