Frozen Dog (1472 )

I have accepted the challenge.

Frozen Dog (1472 )
26 Apr 20 UTC

The result of the challenge between Argentinian Empire & I was a 1-1 draw so no change to the ranking I believe?

yoak challenges abadu to a map of his choice.
Sky_Hopper challenges Arado to a map of their choice.

Arado (1301 )
26 Apr 20 UTC

Arado wins against Sky_Hopper 2-0, so Arado keeps his position.

@Frozen Dog we now play a map of my choice, since it ended 1-1. The map of my choice is Cold War.

Frozen Dog (1472 )
27 Apr 20 UTC

Let's do it. If it's okay with you I'll make the games tomorrow night. :)

Argentinean Empire (1606 )
05 May 20 UTC

I defeated Frozen Dog 2-0 on Cold War after we split 1-1 on FvA.

I challenge bsiper to a map of their choice. Very relevant tangent: in the history of the 1v1 Ladder, has any single challenge consisted of four Cold War games?

No wait, that's wrong! That was a challenge that was never responded to. Do I "win" and we switch or does he simply get eliminated? I assume the latter as I think that's what it was and it is the less self-serving choice:

1. CCR

can i still join? didnt know this existed

mouse (1919 )
24 May 20 UTC

yoak - yeah, if the person challenged never responds, then they are removed from the list. No swapping.

CoffeeAndKeyboards - you can join at any time - just add your name to the bottom of the list. Though since you can only challenge people 1 or 2 ranks above you, and both are currently occupied, you wouldn't be able to challenge anyone 'til their match finishes.

On the subject of inverted time continuum simulation in Diplomacy

That said, the arguments in favour of this idea are the followings;
Predisposition of the game and its written orders to manipulate in-game moves history,
Presence of a game master that can keep orders written for the future secret,
Sheer coolness of doing such a thing

A comment on common courtesy

Stuff happens in life and people occasionally need help from Mods to exit games without destroying the games for other players. Players who need Mods to remove them and delay games should provide a list of all of their games to the Mods. This is common courtesy.
