Anyone want to take this world game?
I'm playing in World Peace Simulator-2, gameID=39267 , but I'm about to go away and am unsure if I'll be able to input my moves. If you are interested, PM me and I'll tell you what country I'm playing. I don't want to just say it here as the game is anonymous. Then I can use the country switch tool to give it away. Please take a look if you are interested.
Thanks!

Calling London Diplomacy fans... we need your help! Trying to track down from the British Library some 1970's articles in the old school mag Games & Puzzles about our great game. Any locals who can help with a little research in the Reading Room? Thanks :-)

Crashed Europa Renovatio Games
At least two games of the new Europa Renovatio variant have had problems and crashed, although so far most of these crashes have been resolved. This is the first time I've encountered this issue here at vDip. How concerned should we players be about this?

This is really a message for mods. .. but I am not getting any response in the ModForum. I have been unable to load orders in the above game for a number of days now .. and am receiving increasingly threatening messages about missing turns and a possible ban. I can't communicate with any of the other players in the game. Does anyone know what is going on?

"Theoretical" Game
So there's a map called Fubar (https://vdiplomacy.com/variants.php?variantID=39). Let's say I created a game called "HA! Pranked!" where it was choose your own country (So I choose the big one), and then I make the SC count to win 8 (greater than any other country has, except the big one which starts with 10). 5 other people are foolish enough to join the game. Would I just win automatically then?

Say I am in the Sealane territory of X SW, and I’m attacking an adjacent Y sea territory, but the Y itself not Y SW/N etc. And I support myself in, can the Y territory retreat into my exposed X sea territory, despite me attacking from X SW?

Move Didn't Go Through
I was looking for clarification from the Mod team as to why a certain unit was not dislodged in a gunboat game with 1.5 day phases, so I sent a message in the Mod forum yesterday morning. I haven't received a response and the next phase of the game is about to go through. What is the proper action in this situation? Should I vote extend and hope for a last-minute extend? Thanks for advice.

Changes to make PPSC better
Currently, the PPSC system rewards points in a solo. It has a number of perverse effects on gameplay. In the subsequent post(s), I will outline changes that could reform PPSC and reduce its detrimental impact.

Google Translate Game
Hello everyone! I am looking for six other players to join a game of Classic(probably, another variant if more want to play), public press, where every player must send messages after putting them through several other languages and then back into English.

I am open to suggestions on exactly which languages and how many there should be.

Small improvement to the chat interface...
In an attempt to clear the chatinterface a bit I changed the tabs.
It now shows the countries you have sent or received messages by default, and groups all other in a new selector.

Nice. :)
Suggestion: When you have communicated with all countries, the 'Open new chat:' tab should be removed.
Oh that’s really nice, now us phone players don’t have to scroll for ages on the big maps.

Great!
One problem is that it still gives the option to open up chats with people on gunboat games. It doesn’t let you open up the chat of course, but it doesn’t make much sense for the option to be available to begin with.

New chats looks to have wires crossed in my games. Some messages are completely gone from countries i have comunicated with. While others show different dialogue from games.

Anyone else see anything strange? I have posted to mods issue

Yeah it seems there are serious problems with chat now. Seeing messages of another player.
Frozen Dog (1515 D)

I am not having that issue, but I can confirm that I cannot see historical messages with players unless I type in a new message to that player.
I'm having the same issue as Melodius_Kitten.

I am definitely having that problem, in a Europa Renovatio game I'm reading all of Polands messages to other people.

Same issue. I can see another players messages (which is quite fasinating in previous games)
Frozen Dog (1515 D)
29 Jun 19 UTC
Yeah it seems that one person in each games donates their press board...

This is clearly a serious issue likely related to the new chatfilter feature.

Until it is resolved I recommend everyone in games where there seems to be an issue to avoid reading through press.
KingOfSwords (1497 D)

Oli, what you need is a test site, where you can try out new features and debug them, before making the same changes on the main site.

I'm also having these press issues. In one game, instead of my own press, I see the press of a player who was eliminated a long time ago.
G-Man (2466 D)

Looks like all press games are affected.

I have reverted the feature for now.

It's really strage, as I only messed with the chat-tabs, and not with the chat-contest.
I have a small dev-server, but these kinds of features need bigger database to work properly. Sorry, but vDip was always some kind of live-dev-server and if you want to see some new features there are always some risks of hickups....
Frozen Dog (1515 D)

Yeah was a great idea! But glad that you've reverted it for now. :)

Even after the reversion, it looks to have disabled the 'show countryname' setting. Have that set yet chat is coming through coloured and with no country name.
It was the opportunity of a lifetime... reading through your enemies messages... thank god I was too busy to take advantage of it for long.

Yesterday I have very much enjoyed going back to my finished games and reading the press of the other players. Especially when they talk about me.
Oli (977 D Mod (P))
30 Jun 19 UTC
There was a 2 hours window as this was possible. Sorry everybody, but I'm really not sure how changing the orders of the tabs could have affected the messages.
The Dropdown-tab is back, should work again as intendet.
Please send a bug report as soon as you get problems again.
Maybe I will try to improve on this next weekend.
Seems fine this time.
Titus (1572 D)

Oli, i like much the new chat feature to unclutter the tabs. I wonder if from this modification you can go to the group chat feature, so when someone opens a new chat they can specify to open a new chat with a group of players by selecting the people the want in the new chat. To avoid cluttering, that selected new chat group can be maintained in a drop down list that can be selected at any time.
Oli (977 D Mod (P))
07 Jul 19 UTC
I did another small change. It now sorts the countrytabs by alphabetically and put the notes tab at the end.
Please send a message if there are any errors. DId some more tests this time and everything "should" work as expected now.
KingOfSwords (1497 D)

This is much more logical.

Decompressive Backseat Orchidectomy Restart
For those that were in this cancelled game (over the technical gaff beyond our control), I’ve recreated the game as Decompressive Bilateral Backseat Orchidectomy. Message me, G-Man, for the password. This is just a restart for the same group of players that had already been playing this game. So, no newcomers please.

Conceding/Withdrawing from a game
Sorry if this is a well-flogged dead horse, but I've looked in the 'Help' section and can't seem to find an answer to this. Is it possible to concede a game - I don't mean voting for a concede result, but for a player to unilaterally withdraw from the game deliberately?

Why can't you view anything besides the public chat in archives?
Look I understand why you can't watch it during the game, since you could Pm players the details, but after a game has ended, I want to be able to view alliances, deals, and other things that you just couldn't see in the normal chat.
