21 Apr 21 UTC Spring, 1889: (StarUnknown): this map looks like fun!
21 Apr 21 UTC Spring, 1889: (ajptaylor): It certainly does. This site has many interesting alternatives to play. The challenge is rounding up a quorum. Every now and then we break through and get a different game. Here's to hoping!
21 Apr 21 UTC Spring, 1889: (StarUnknown): Have u played this map before? what are the dynamics // meta of it like?
to me--it looks like Hamra is the most well positioned but it seems pretty much balanced all the way around
22 Apr 21 UTC Spring, 1889: (ajptaylor): I have not played it. It reminds me a bit of the Celtic Britain map.
24 Apr 21 UTC Spring, 1889: (StarUnknown): Halfway there! :D
24 Apr 21 UTC Spring, 1889: (Mikey99): I played it once only, several years ago, the pink one... the narrow land channels means that land movement is easily blocked.... control of adjacent sea provinces are critical.
25 Apr 21 UTC Spring, 1889: (StarUnknown): Yeah this map seems very sea focused, especially with all the island SCs

07 May 21 UTC Spring, 1890: [Arafura]:Need some players for this one - https://www.vdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=48542

07 May 21 UTC Spring, 1890: [Arafura]:This is why, when starting these games, its best to select minimal excused NMRs.

08 May 21 UTC Spring, 1890: [Arafura]:Is everyone having fun yet?
08 May 21 UTC Spring, 1890: [Jylland]:yeah this game is an emotional rollercoaster
08 May 21 UTC Spring, 1890: [Hamra]:certainly so!
09 May 21 UTC Spring, 1890: [Ishfahan]:Minimal NMR's: what the site really needs is a way to simply resign, rather than go though being nonresponsive.
09 May 21 UTC Spring, 1890: [New Foundland]:This is why you only allow one or two delays, not four...
09 May 21 UTC Spring, 1890: [Ishfahan]:Yeah, yeah, yeah. The problem is players with no intestinal fortitude.

Show up to play, celebrate your successes, take your defeats and move on. Doing the NMR thing so you don't have a defeat in your stats is silly, and rude to others.

The point of the game is to have fun, not to rack up numbers. I have been playing Diplomacy since the 1970's (yes, with a board, wooden pieces and hand written moves), and it has always been about enjoying the game.
09 May 21 UTC Spring, 1890: [Lugulu]:Yo if anyone wants Kyushu now is the time gurliess
@Ming-tao @Rajasthan @Sakhalin (dont think I dont see u eyeing Nemuro!!!!)

jk ;) unless?
