One action card is dealt to players at the start. They may use it at the beginning of any turn, and they will pm the Game Master who will coordinate the gameplay to conform to the rules set out on the cards.
I've started my first game of webDiplomacy, and in the chat window, all the text is in black, where usually the text is coloured in relation to the country. Is there a settings tweak that I need to make?
I'm trying to start a game with a 20 point buy in, and I'm sure I'm entering it properly, but when I go to the game page, it says the buy in is 1. I've nuked and recreated 3 times now and it's the same every time. I guess I don't really mind playing for one point, but I think I might have trouble attracting an opponent for one point...
I've never heard or seen an African variant. But there seems to be one for every other land area (Americas north, central, south, Asia, Australia, and of course the original Europe). Is this because the geography isn't so interesting (having a simple coastline, tho you could have impassable areas like the Sahara Desert), or just no one cares? :\
We need a new Germany is a World IV game: http://vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=648
In a decent position, but not great. Have a strong ally but a couple strong enemies too. However, a new person might be able to change the diplomatic situation since I believe the wars were as much personal at this point as tactical.
I started a game. when I click my home hub, I can see it with me waiting for other players, but when I search for it in new games and open games, it's nowhere to be found. What gives?

"Error triggered: Undefined index: 52. This was probably caused by a software bug. The details of this error have been successfully logged and will be attended to by a developer. webDiplomacy version 1.00 webDiplomacy @ Sourceforge "
Also, aside home page, I can surf all the site, looks like it lets me create a new game but I can't search for MY anonymous games. As if I was a member, but not "me"...

I have the same issue, only I can't even access the Games tab, I need to go to a /board.php page to access the games, but if I go to my games tab, the same thing as above happens.
I got the same error as RoxArt, except that my phase length wasn't extended and I just had an endgame NMR that gave another power a win they had not and would not have earned otherwise. Is there any way to rectify this?
I see. I don't think the power about to win cares much about the issue. I guess that's what I get for waiting to hear back from someone. *sigh*
Ah well, stuff happens. I know you do a hell of a lot to keep this site up and running, Oli, so thank you for your continued help with these issues and outstanding work to make this the best variant Diplomacy website on the Web.
Usually I can fix many issues, but I have really much work to do in RL. So I need to keep administrative tasks to an absolute minimum. I'll fix variants issues and problems that prevent accessing the site but I can't take care for play-related issues (at the moment).
Well, honestly, at this point all that could be done is forcibly draw the game, and I don't feel that's an ethical action to take in this circumstance anyway.
Actually, an update: canaduh is a very reasonable player, and I'd like to apologize for insinuating otherwise here. Dunno how the game gets resolved, but he's being very fair about it, so no complaints here.
i found a bug in the World War IV variant! OLI HELP
http://vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=1582 I play as Thailand in this one, and my troops in RIA can't move to PLM. Also my troops in SNG can't support my troops in RIA to PLM. This is the first time I spotted a bug. argh.
Chaos game up, anyone interested? I've come from far-off sites to play here, and I would be sad if nobody else played Chaos with me... http://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=1907
Souldn't Thrace have 2 coasts (east and west) in Greek Diplomacy? http://vdiplomacy.com/variants.php#GreekDip Illium is a canal, similar to constantinople, but Thrace, equaling Bulgaria in classic, should have 2 coasts, shouldn't it?
