Oli won.
On Imperial Civilization's off-topic thread (link inside), there was a brief stint of Second to Last Person to Post Wins. Now that the thread is closed, Oli won.

Message Board Improvement
Hi Oli and Mods,

Notice these adds are really drowning out message board threads and conversation. Suggest:
G-Man (2512 D)

- Add removal
- Not being able to post in the message board until you’ve played in 5 game phases
- Search capability for the message board, as it’s too time-consuming to wade through the 150+ threads
- Message time-limit editing capability
- Eliminate the summary message when starting a thread: the subject is the summary, and the (first) post provides the critical information

Tnx for listening

The second suggestion there would force David E. Cohen to finally play a game on the site, rest in peace his perfect 0 phases played over 13 years :pensive:

But overall agreed very annoying to see a million bot scams on the forum for some reason

Seconded. For some reason, the bot spams are always about Diablo, like clockwork. I doubt anyone would actually click the links being posted but it's better safe than sorry

To @Orange, I think we can make it so that certain members don't have to play games. Or, and this comes from a person who has no idea how programming or website management works, but there might be ways to implement anti-bot protocols (like captcha) whenever someone tries to start a thread

Additionally: make it so that banned bot accounts would also have their forum threads deleted. Just makes things better

The worst part is they're selling cocaine to places I've never heard (and I do like my geography) and dare I say even New Zealand. But not Australia. Maybe the spammers would've got to us after the 14th coke page.

Too much junk messages,we need a double-check to ensure they are players instead of just sending junk messages.
Website coding should be improved I think.
Even just a simple captcha during account creation should suffice. And I think there should be a feature that allows the mods to delete every forum post of certain accounts

In an effort to compromise the pro-ads versus anti-ads for games: Post here for your non-live games to cut down on the number of ads but still advertise games. Post game link, WTA or PPSC, and the bet. Note: this doesn't count for special rules games.

Inconsequential and mundane facts! Here's mine: I noticed yesterday that in both of the years that Dennis Rodman won "Defensive Player of the Year" in the NBA (American professional basketball), Hakeem Olajuwon out rebounded him for the season. For non-Americans, Dennis Rodman is generally remembered as the greatest rebounder of the modern era whereas the NBA DPOY award is the Hakeem Olajuwon Trophy.

Scoring
Game in question is here: https://vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=62071
I'm quite surprised to see defeated powers gaining points. I'm sure it's a product of a highly ranked player being in a game with a few very low ranked players, but I was not aware that it was possible to gain points at all for being defeated.

This is...intentional, right?

Attention players in southern Queensland
The Mods have received a request to extend games for a player in Brisbane due to possible interruptions of power and internet as a result of a major weather event. If you are in the Brisbane or Gold Coast areas and fear having such issues, we can provide an accommodation, but you will need to message through the Mod Forum and you will need to provide a list of your active games.

About Napoleonic variant
The Napoleonic variant has a very nice map and good historic period to play. But I think Firehawk killed his variant with the no-neutrals feature. Maybe we should ask him to release the alternative version of his variant about Napoleonic wars but with neutrals (occupied by units or not) and with for-Of-War map-feature (or without).
I'm sure the Napoleonic 2.0 variant will be more popular that its basic version.
