Re: Awarding the player rating points - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)


My brother and I were discussing this some time ago, but we could not find anyplace where we could look at the formula for determining the point adjustments to the player ratings for wins, draws, and losses. By looking at some old games we have a sense of it, but we were wondering, in the interest of transparency, if this information could be disclosed?



Yep, we're working on a writeup for this.


I believe that I was also informed that a replacement player does not take as much of a hit for a loss. I even used this information to entice one player to pick up the reigns from a failing player.



Exactly - Replacement players are much less liable for a point loss for taking on mercy positions. The original player bears the majority of the loss, based on the center count upon abandoning.


ps. I love the two different point systems! I think it is great to reward loyalty, even if they player has had a run of bad luck, (or just isn't that good!)



Heh... where is Felix when you need to express an example. Very Happy

Dc 175 2-Season Diplomacy - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
[size=24:66841b2631]2-Season Diplomacy to be used for DC175
(a version of 2-Season Diplomacy Dipwiki edited and expanded for clarity).[/size:66841b2631]

[size=18:66841b2631]Introduction[/size:66841b2631]

2-Season Diplomacy is a style of Email Diplomacy where the game is played using a 2 season – Spring and Fall - game year (standard game) and is often played to a fixed-duration turn cycle, with the deadlines set for the same time, sometimes on the same day of successive weeks.

The Rules of Diplomacy were written with a view to face-to-face play and, as such, contained, and continue to contain as of 2008, specific rules prohibiting diplomatic discussion between the resolution of normal moves and ordering retreats, and between the resolution of normal moves or retreats and adjustments. Email Diplomacy and, to a lesser extent, Postal Mail Diplomacy, can allows these prohibitions to be compromised by enabling rapid correspondence between players, beyond GM control, at a point where no such discussion is allowed by the rules.

2-Season Diplomacy attempts to stay closer to the intent of the rules by incorporates the retreat and/or adjustment phases within the preceding Spring and Fall movement turns. Players are expected to submit, for the:

• Spring turn, any move, hold, support and convoy orders, PLUS any retreats that the player feels might need to be ordered.

• Fall turn, any move, hold, support and convoy orders, PLUS any retreats that the player feels might need to be ordered, PLUS any adjustments (builds or removals) that the player feels might need to be ordered.

2-Season Diplomacy reduces the number of deadlines per game year (and the opportunity for NMRs), and the commensurate administration time associated with individual deadlines. However, it requires additional methods for writing retreat and adjustment orders.

[size=18:66841b2631]Method[/size:66841b2631]

There are several methods of writing orders when using 2-Season Diplomacy. DC175 will use the Preference List Order Method which recognizes that player’s may have, or may be able to develop, an ability to look ahead to possible permutations of units following a set of moves and that a preference lists of possible destinations for retreats, possible locations for builds and possible candidate units for disbandment can give control over a player’s retreat and adjustment orders.

It is important to note that diplomatic discussion regarding possible dislodgements, builds and disbandments with other players may be desirable. Such discussion, however, would need to take place prior to the submitting of the requisite Spring or Fall orders.

During order adjudication, the GM first adjudicates the move, hold, support and convoys orders, then any retreat orders, disbanding units without valid retreats, then (if a Fall turn) any adjustments and publishes all the season’s results at the same time. Should any retreat or adjustment orders not be given when required then: unordered retreats are disbanded; unordered builds are waived; and unordered removals are processed as per the Civil Disorder rules. It may be advisable for a player to submit: a retreat order for each of their units that may be dislodged; a build order for each home supply center; and, a disbandment orders for the maximum number of disbandments that they expect.

When adjudicating preferred list retreat orders, the GM will evaluate the retreat orders for each dislodged unit, and if:

1. no retreat order has been submitted for that unit, it will be disbanded.

2. the unit is ordered to retreat OTB (off the board) it will be disbanded.

3. a unit’s most preferred retreat is blocked for retreat purposes (because that province is occupied; is the province from which the attacker came; or is a province that was left vacant by a standoff during the same turn) then the next preferred unblocked province will be used, repeating the process down the preference list, as necessary.

4. the first unblocked retreat of a unit is ambiguously ordered (e.g. ‘Nor’ when either ‘North Sea’ or ‘Norway’ could by retreated to by a fleet, even if one or more of the ambiguous retreat locations is blocked) then that will considered be a misorder and the unit will be disbanded.

5. two or more units’ retreat to the same unblocked province after all their preceding retreats listed are discounted as blocked then those units are disbanded.

6. none of a unit’s ordered retreats are unblocked (even if there is a vacant unblocked province to which the unit which could have otherwise have retreated) the unit is disbanded.

7. the unit has not so far been destroyed and a valid retreat location has been ordered then the unit is retreated to that province.

When adjudicating preferred list build orders, the GM will evaluate the build orders (in the order given) for each player who has possible builds this turn, and if:

1. no build order has been submitted then any build will be waived that turn.

2. a ‘no builds’ order has been submitted then any builds will be waived that turn.

3. a unit’s most preferred build location is now occupied then the next preferred build order will be used, repeating the process down the list, as necessary.

4. any of a unit’s preferred build locations are ambiguously ordered or misordered then that build order is ignored.

5. not enough valid build orders have been specified then any excess builds will be waived that turn.

6. there remain valid build locations ordered and the builds are available then those available builds will be made.

When adjudicating preferred list disbandment orders, the GM will evaluate the disbandment orders (in the order given) for each player who has required disbandments this turn, and if:

1. no valid disbandment order has been submitted then any required disbandments will be decided as per the usual Civil Disorder rules.

2. not enough disbandment orders have been specified then any excess disbandments will be decided as per the usual Civil Disorder rules.

3. any of a unit’s preferred units for disbandment are ambiguously ordered or misordered then that preferred disbandment is ignored and any excess disbandments that result will be decided as per the usual Civil Disorder rules.

4. there remain valid disbandment orders and required disbandments then those disbandments will be made as ordered.

[size=18:66841b2631]NMRs[/size:66841b2631]

An NMR is applied to a player if no move, hold, support, convoy or retreat orders are submitted for a given Spring turn. An NMR is applied to a player if no move, hold, support, convoy, retreat, build or disbandment orders are submitted for a given Fall turn.

[size=18:66841b2631]Format[/size:66841b2631]

Retreats

After all the move, hold, support and convoy orders have been listed; list the orders for any or all potential retreats using the format:

R A/F pppO-pppR

Where:

R = Retreat;
A/F = A(rmy) or F(leet) – optional;
pppO = the province from which the unit has been dislodged;
pppR = one or more alternative retreat locations listed in descending order of preference, each separated by commas (and separated from pppO by a hyphen), or OTB.

Builds

After retreat orders have been listed, list the orders for potential builds on separate lines (in descending order of preference) in the format:

B A/F ppp

Where:

B = Build;
A/F = A(rmy) or F(leet) – only mandatory for coastal provinces;
ppp = the province in which the unit is to be built (including the coast if necessary to avoid ambiguity).

Disbandments

After build orders have been listed, list the orders for potential disbandments on separate lines (in descending order of preference) in the format:

D A/F ppp

Where:

D = Disband;
A/F = A(rmy) or F(leet) – optional;
ppp = the province in which the unit to be disbanded is located (specifying the coast is optional).

[size=18:66841b2631]Examples[/size:66841b2631]

Retreats

1. Italy is expecting to be dislodged from Ven by Austrian moves‘ A Tri-Ven, Russian A Tyl S A Tri-Ven’. Italy submits a retreat order ‘R A Ven-Pie, Tus, Rom’ and if dislodged A Ven will retreat to the first space on the list that is unblocked for retreat purposes.

2. Both German A Ruh and French A Bur have the option of retreating to either Mun or Bel if dislodged. If Germany orders ‘R A Ruh-Bel, Mun’ and France orders ‘R A Bur-Bel, Mun’ and Bel is an unblocked location for retreat then they both attempt to retreat there and are both destroyed. If Bel was unblocked for retreat then both would retreat to the next on the list and again be destroyed. However, if Germany orders ‘R A Ruh-Bel, Mun’ and France orders ‘R A Bur-Mun, Bel’ then if both spaces are unblocked retreat locations then the units will retreat as per their first choice and not be destroyed. However, if either, or both, Bel or Mun are blocked for retreat then the dislodged units would again clash and both be destroyed.

Builds

3. Austria is expecting two builds and provides a build preference list ‘B A Vie, B F Tri’. If Austria did get at least one build and Vie was unoccupied then they would build A Vie. If for some reason Ven was occupied then they would build F Tri instead, if Tri was unoccupied. If Austria indeed gained two builds and both centers were unoccupied then A Vie and F Tri would both be built. If Vie was occupied, but Tri unoccupied then only F Tri would be built and the second build waived, conversely, if Tri was occupied, but Ven unoccupied then only A Vie would be built. If both centers were occupied then both builds would be waived, even if Bud was available for a build. If Austria had gained three builds then the third would have automatically have been waived as only two preferences were given in the list.

4. France is doing well against both England and Italy. On balance France decides that England is the best target. France expects 3 builds so orders ‘B F Bre, B F Mar, B A Par’. If only one build is made then this will be in Bre to be more easily directed against England, if two builds then the next build will be in Mar against Italy, and if a third then in Par.

Disbandments

5. France is now not doing so well against England and France. On balance France decides that England is the most skilled player and has closer units so when it comes to ordering retreats he decides that F Tys is more expendable than F Eng. France doesn’t feel able to spare any of his armies facing Germany so orders ‘D F Tys, D F Eng, D A Pic, D A Bur’. Any unit will disband only if required even if a disband order is submitted.

Personally I like the information..... It is often what I look at first when I start a game. A bit of a first impression of the others, if you will.

[Reply]

I agree! - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
I like the current Info, and would even add a few points, as I have mentioned before.
My vote would be to purge all players who signed up but never played in a rolling time period (60 days, 90?)
Not to exclude people, but dead data is dead data.

Do we have the ability to run Polls on DC? This would be a good one to run, I think...

DC170 winter 1902 adjustments - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Two of our powers fail to submit orders this turn. Russia's dislodged army in Warsaw went unordered, and by Dip rules is disbanded; and since Bothnia and Ukraine are equidistant from the Tsar's home centers, the fleet is the default disband. England fails to send a build order, so his build is waived for this year.

Spring 1903 orders will be due Tuesday 4/8 at 3pm Pacific.

Heya folks,

I have adjudicated WInter 1902... However - it looks as though RP quirked and for whatever reason did not list the Russian build in the last turn. Due to the adjudication error, we'll give Andrew a little bit of extra time to get a build in - the Russian build will be due by Saturday, Apr 5th (11:59 PM GMT).


Unless any of you have any objections, the Spring 03 deadline will remain due on Monday, Apr 7th (11:59 PM GMT).


Cheers - and apologies for the slight mistake...

Re: Cleaning up the Player Roster - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Just another thought:
If the standard view of the Players list would be static (say generated once a day) wouldn't that speed it up a lot? That page should be able to load immediately.
An information refresh of once a day will meet most of our needs I'd say. For everything else - actual information, or differently sorted - a user could always click away from the standard page at the cost of a slower load.



Yeah the player list does load a bit slow as the number of players grows.
Three options...

- Purge players who sign up but never play a game. (greatest speed improvement)
- Change the player list to only show players who have played a game. (moderate speed improvement)
- Remove some of the columns from the player list. (speed improvement at the cost of some information)

Better belay that notice folks. Apologies, but we seem to be short one set of orders for Spring 1905 - the player in question has been notified. I would normally follow Alex's HR's and NMR the position this turn, but due to the dual-GM nature of the last couple turns its possible that the orders were sent but simply not CC'd to me.

Whatever the case, if the last year has taught me anything it is that it never hurts to delay just a few hours to seek clarification. (Lesson learnt the hard-way.) I have given the missing player notice that orders are due by 11:59 AM GMT, or approximately 8 hours from now.

Truly sorry about this. Turns out I already had the missing adjustments but had mis-filed them in a different game-folder. My bad - the slight delay is on my shoulders...

Winter adjudication is below. England builds a pair of armies, Turkey a pair of fleets. Russia pots a pair of boots in Moscow and Germany removes in Helgoland. And with Italy non-responsive, I took the liberty and removed his non-SC unit in the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Have not heard from the possible replacement players as of yet, but I will let everyone know ASAP what the situation there is. (They are blind-CC'd on this adjudication.)

DC141 Seven Sinners - Spring 1905 Results - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Max,

Due to life pressures, Alex has had to step away from the game. He announced this last night - but I'm not sure if you were on his email distribution list. (He also changed the deadline to Friday which I *know* he didn't let you know about.)


I will be coming in as the temp GM. Tremble, ye players, for the wrath of Trout is about to descend. =P

Heya all,

We find ourselves rolling once more. Germany powers back into Kiel and France slips into Rome. No retreats are required after the Spring moves so we'll flow right into the Fall turn. Deadline for Fall 05 orders will be set for Wednesday, Apr 2nd (11:59 PM GMT).


Please just let me know if you spot any errors in the adjudication. Also, please continue to CC me in on orders submitted to Alex. I will continue to act as your humble GM's safety net while Real Life continues to keep him from whats really important. =P

[quote:7cbf0938b2]Better belay that notice folks. Apologies, but we seem to be short one set of orders for Spring 1905 - the player in question has been notified. I would normally follow Alex's HR's and NMR the position this turn, but due to the dual-GM nature of the last couple turns its possible that the orders were sent but simply not CC'd to me.

Whatever the case, if the last year has taught me anything it is that it never hurts to delay just a few hours to seek clarification. (Lesson learnt the hard-way.) I have given the missing player notice that orders are due by 11:59 AM GMT, or approximately 8 hours from now.

[quote:7cbf0938b2]Heya folks,

Truly sorry about this. Turns out I already had the missing adjustments but had mis-filed them in a different game-folder. My bad - the slight delay is on my shoulders...

Winter adjudication is below. England builds a pair of armies, Turkey a pair of fleets. Russia pots a pair of boots in Moscow and Germany removes in Helgoland. And with Italy non-responsive, I took the liberty and removed his non-SC unit in the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Have not heard from the possible replacement players as of yet, but I will let everyone know ASAP what the situation there is. (They are blind-CC'd on this adjudication.)

Spring 1905 orders will be set for Wednesday, March 26th (11:59 PM GMT). Please send your orders to Alex, but copy me in on them in case he is still busy and cannot adjudicate.

Cheers!

DC172 Midsummers - Late Orders, RP Fixes and Forum... - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Heya folks,

I'm missing two sets of Winter 1901 adjustments, unfortunately. The players in question have been notified and I'll give them a little bit to respond. Hopefully they'll do so in short order.


I've also had to tinker with the RealPolitik variant files. I don't quite understand it - but the RP variant wasn't allowing for any Spanish builds. I solved the problem with some minor edits to the .map and .gam files. (For those who care, I adjusted the Spanish letter abbreviation from 'I' to 'S'.) I've attached those files - all you have to do is to replace the versions in your 1600 variant folder with these ones. Also had to redo the Spring and Fall .dpy files - those are attached as well.


Also, please note that we now have a game forum: dc172(at)diplomaticcorp.com ([email]dc172(at)diplomaticcorp.com[/email]) All turn adjudications will be copied there - and I highly encourage any of you to submit press there as well. =)


Cheers gang! Will be in touch soon with regards to Winter. If I fail to hear from the players by tonight, we'll take the appropriate actions then.

Sorry for the delayed adjudication; it's literally been sitting on comp
since Friday morning and I just forgot to send it. Oops...

Germany helps England pull off a double convoy to the "door" of France
while Italy learns about coastal distinctions. Austria helps Turkey
into his own center but also moves on Tunis, but the question is: Will
the Italians so easily cede Carthage to their eastern neighbors after
their ancestors fought so hard to conquer it?

We have no retreats, so we progress directly to Fall 1906, due this
Wednesday, April 9, at 9 pm eastern.

- GM ADMITS HE TOTALLY AND ROYALLY SCREWED UP THE LAST TURN

Yup. There was a whole schwack of orders that I missed entering into the RP adjudication last turn - most of them belonging to Holland... The only real result of the missed orders however was that Austria was bounced out of Fezz. I have attached a corrected Spring map with the Summer 1871 retreats.

Don't think I could possibly screw anything up with the Sumer turn - but who knows.. Just let me know if you spot anything. Fall 1871 orders will be due Friday, Apr 11th (11:59 PM GMT).

DC169 (wbo824) - Winter 1902 - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Well, despite the extra time there was no build forthcoming from Russia. With regrets, we move forward into Spring 1903. Deadline for orders will be Monday Apr 7th (11:59 PM GMT)... Or at the time that Steve announces when he gets back - I believe he will return this weekend. He may adjust the deadline if necessary.

Cheers!
