Hello all! Since I've joined the site, I have played a large variety of games and have started or finised 199. I want to invite anyone who is interested to play in my 200th game on the site :)
I think they have one of these for WebDip, so I figured I might as well make one for VDip too. Post on this thread or send me a PM with your location (no need to be precise with this - you can just give a nearby city if you want to) and I'll add you to the map.

Hello. Just signed up because I wanted to ask some questions.
What are the differences between vDip and webDip? Why do they look so similar? Was there a schism somewhere along the way? Are they two separate sites; can I have an account at each? Opinions of webDip?
gameID=13235 This was one of the most irritating games I have ever played. I was Spain. I posted a thread a few weeks back about being aware of SCs needed to win. This was the reason.
Are you like me and had people describe the NBA Finals to you as the "old" Spurs against the "young" heat? There are exactly three players on the Heat's 15 player roster who are younger than the mean age of the Spurs 15 man roster. The median aged Spur is Tiago Splitter. For the Heat it is Udonis Halam. Five year age difference for those of you scoring at home.
When people think Spurs they think Manu, Tony and my man Timmy. Those are guys have been the prominent figures on the Spurs for many years, which is why the Spurs are referred to as "old." Though in reality, it may not be true. People perceive them as old because of those three guys. So really, they kind of disregard the other 2 players. This years NBA finals is Lebron Chris D-Wade vs Manu Tony Tim. Most people (with the exception of the true fans for each team) will see it that way.
Manu ceased to be in their top three several years ago. It is also worth noting that last year LeBron, D-Wade and Bosh got beaten pretty soundly by Durant, Westbrook and Harden and it was the Miami supporting cast destroying the OKC supporting cast that won them the title.
Mike Miller and Shane Battier etc wiped the floor with Ibaka & company.
But yes Manu is soooo old. He is less than a year younger than Duncan, I believe, and wings age in dog years when they go. cough cough D-Wade cough cough
Hello everyone, I've been developing another (very different) variant on the lab. This one is Europe during the First Crusade. I'm starting my first test game so I need 6 others to join. The link is here http://lab.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=94 Tell me what you think and join up!
here's the game url. Germany is crippled, but your entry could turn the tide... not gonna tell you which side to pick, but I think it'll be clear what choice must be made. good luck.
Stemming from the recent thread re: cooking recipes, I came up with an idea for a game. This is directed particularly at Guaroz, mainly because he expressed interest in the culinary arts, and hails from Italy; however, the offer is there for anyone else who might be interested. Please read below.
I am leaving for my honeymoon on Monday and have recently learned I will have no internet connectivity while I'm gone. I currently have 5 open games: Alcavre, Mystery Diplomacy, Celtic Britain, Indians of the Great Lakes and Colonial 1885 (though I expect Mystery Countries and possibly Celtic Britain to be resolved by monday).
If anyone will do me the favor I would appreciate it. I don't want to CD in my games and I have never missed a turn.
About the Italian Rinascimento variant, it's one of my favorite variants and definitely one of the more meticulously made ones, but "Tyrrhenian Sea" is misspelled :/
gameID=14376 Autumn 1903. Notice that three units (Sevastopol, Black Sea, and Wales) were simultaneously ordered to Armenia, none of them under support. The move from Wales succeeded; the others did not.
This should be considered an error and bug-checked in the Ankara Crescent variant.
On a suggestion from PE, I am interested in finding those people on this site who like to play competitive Diplomacy - the way it was first created. No pre-arranged draws, no unbreakable alliances...play to win, just like the objective says.
