Variant Tournaments
I've really enjoyed playing variant-specific tournaments such as the Known World 15x15 currently underway.

Are the Fog of War games going to start?
BobRoss (1752 D)
16 Jun 17 UTC
Perhaps it'd be good to start 2 and 3 simultaneously once the shuffling is finished? Also, considering the quick readying of orders, we could perhaps start the later games after a shorter interval? (if everyone else would like that as well, obviously)
The games will be ready once everyone is shuffled into correct nation assignments, as stated. I can't do it myself, seeing as how I'm playing them too. They are in line for attention, shouldn't be much longer. As for starting on a quicker schedule, I'm willing to have them all go at once, but that'll have to be a group decision.
Thank you mouse for updating!

Can i already request an extension? I'll have limited access between 7/24 and 8/2. I'd prefer if only 2-4 games are running by then. After that period though, I don't mind launching all games.
BobRoss (1752 D)
16 Jun 17 UTC
I'd like to propose that games 2,3 and 4 will be launched simultaneously and then games 5,6 and 7 could be launched like 1.5/2 weeks after. In any case I am very much in favour of having multiple tournament games running at the same time.

In my case, it wouldn't be pretending. I don't have the time or interest in figuring that out. It won't effect each individual game anyway.

gameID=29990
Single game left; knowing who's what (and thus who it's counter-productive to draw with, for tournament ranking) can have a marked effect on the game.

It's also an entirely negligible effort to determine, given the known fact of non-repeating nations, and the fact that all 7 other games have public names now - even if it hadn't been apparent from the first game conclusion given the obviousness of the rotation applied.

What is the cost for the tournament (points of course)? If no cost, I'll play both, but I had to borrow just to get the last few needed for the Fog tournament.

Hey Dr. R! I'm interested but don't want to over commit to how many games I'd have to manage. What does the structure look like for these?
BobRoss (1752 D)
02 Aug 17 UTC
I have a similar situation to YCHTT. Yet, i'd rather play a rated tournament thus i'll first have to scramble the buy in. (and I also still would like to join the Furnace of Affliction, so i'd better grab another victory in the FoW tournament haha).

Imbalanced map?
It seems as if several maps need some balancing work. For example, England* v Turkey is skewed toward England, and in Rinascimento, the French are virtually at the hands of other players’ wills.

Hello, I have a problem. I am going away for a few days (tomorrow), and I don't know how to quit the game I am in. There are 36 players, so I cannot reasonably ask for all of them to pause --- besides, there isn't enough time --- so I am stuck.

Playing with fewer players
Hi all!

I know this is probably a noob question, but I need to resolve this issue: is it possible to start a game with fewer players than those normally expected? I tried it once with the Rinascimento variant, but the game didn't launch just because there weren't 12 players.
Thank you in advance!

Gunboat specs
If the "Gunboat", "Public Press", or "Per Rulebook" rules are employed, shouldn't the game be automatically "Anon" as well? If it weren't, then players could just PM each other, defeating the purpose.

Question about social norms for players
In a large game, a reliable player asked the mods to extend the game for Easter. The request was general and largely in the name of other player: "Hey guys, it's Easter, and in a big game, some people will probably be traveling to see family." The extension was granted, and requests like that are likely to be accepted.

I've been wondering how well you could write a script to play gunboat diplomacy. Probably not very well (at least to begin with!), but it would be fun to try. I don't really have the time to do this properly right now, but I'm interested to know if it has been done before, or whether anyone would be keen to try at some point in the future.
