DC 116 Vogon's Revenge - Fall 06 Deadline Reminder - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Hi guys,

Just a gentle poetic nudge that the Fall 06 order deadline is almost upon us. I do not currently have all sets in hand, so please double-check and ensure you have a confirmation from me if you've sent in orders. Deadline is in just under 21 hours.

Cheers folks!

DC123 Shade of The Bonsai - Winter 1574 - Sanvean - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
From the Last Statement of Torii Mototada:

I will stand off the forces of the entire country here and die a resplendent death.

As such the warriors of the Shimazu must be feeling facing the might of the Mori, without the aid of their fleets which are now scuttled. The Takeda build a fleet in Hitachi to guard the northern waters, but the real story is the Mori who raise a trio of armies in Chikuzen, Iwami and Nagato.

We head into Spring 1575 looking at the solo threats on either end of the board - can both be stopped? Deadline for orders will be set for Wednesday, Nov 21st (11:59 PM GMT.)

Please shout out if you spot any errors. Cheers guys,

Trout

dc119 Persistent Turtle A04 Results - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Dear all,

I'm afraid that I am going to have to waithdraw myself from this enjoyable game. As I've already mentioned to Garry, I've now started traing with the Royal Navy and I don't have the time to play anymore. Many apologies for this and I have had fun playing.

Cheers,

Eddie

Another NMR. Russia this time.
Shall this game be a draw with those surviving based on who still sends orders?



Persistent Turtle (Autumn 1904)

AUSTRIA-HUNGARY (Bob Lee)
F(Bul) sc - Con (FAILED); A(Tri) Stands; A(Vie) s A(Tri)

ENGLAND (Nick Buscaglia)
F(NTH) - Bel; F(ENG) s F(NTH) - Bel; F(Bre) Stands; F(BAR) - StP nc; A(War) Stands; F(MAO) - Por; F(Nwy) s F(BAR) - StP nc

FRANCE (ANARCHY!)
A(Spa) Stands

GERMANY (Peter Van Asten)
A(Ven) - Rom (FAILED); A(Tyr) - Ven (FAILED); A(Mun) - Bur; A(Gas) - Spa (FAILED); F(Kie) - Hol; F(Bel) s F(Kie) - Hol (CUT, DISLODGED - Retreat PENDING); A(Den) Stands

ITALY (ANARCHY!)
A(Boh) Stands

RUSSIA (Eddie Nicholls - NMR!)
A(Lvn) Stands; A(Mos) Stands; F(GoB) Stands; F(Rum) Stands; F(Swe) Stands

TURKEY (Eric Mao)
F(BLA) - Con (FAILED); A(Bud) Stands; A(Ser) s A(Bud); F(ION) - Tun; F(Nap) - Rom (FAILED)

Autumn 1904 Adjustments:
A: Bul, Tri, Vie, Gre = 4; No change.
E: Bel, Bre, +StP, War, +Por, Nwy, Lon, Edi, Lpl = 9; Gains 2.
F: Spa = 1; No change.
G: +Ven, Hol, Den, Par, Mun, Mar, Ber, Kie = 8; Gains 1.
I: Rom -Ven, -Tun, -Nap = 1; Loses 3.
R: Mos, Rum, Swe, Sev, -StP = 4; Loses 1.
T: Bud, Ser, +Tun, +Nap, Con, Ank, Smy = 7; Gains 2.

Peter - I need a retreat for F Bel. Note that you have two options - NTH or NRO [which is no retreat ordered which means disband so you can build elsewhere].

Orders for Builds/Removes will be contingent on that retreat. When I receive it, I will publish with a request for builds/removals. I expect to get a quick response from Peter and then will publish new deadlines for builds/removals and the next turn.

Note: I will be sending a map in a separate file - HOWEVER, the map will have the following inconsistencies:

* It will show the F Bel as disbanded....note that it is pending retreat.
* It wil show Russia's removal as A(Lvn). That is actually contingent on his request. I had to show something as removed for the program. Until he gives his remove request consider that as an A in place.

Should get interesting. AGAIN - APOLOGIZE FOR THE DELAY!!!!

dc133: To Heir Is Human - Lineups (Take-2) - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Ok folks after my insane repetition about how not to confirm if you
don't want to play we STILL get an abandon, I think we'll be off to a
great start now... I had super early prelims in from all the other 6,
plus now welcome a new eager body in Dom Barker heading up Italy. He
comes to us from the next re001 so he was waiting to get into a similar
game.

Revised player list is below, let's make the first deadline for Friday,
to give everyone some time to get reacquainted.

Spring 01: Friday 11/23, 2pm Pacific. That is the day after
Thanksgiving! A holiday for those in the US... if that doesn't work for
anyone, I can push it back to Monday just let me know but I bet you all
want to get the game going.

*Prelims already in are STILL VALID, tho you may revise if you wish*

dc133: To Heir Is Human - Game Start! - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Resending this to include Dom,

WELCOME ALL!

To this our 133rd game of diplomaticcorp Diplomacy.

(ok actually it's our 134'th as Jason got his dc134 started before I did
but who's counting)

To the pros in the group, feel free to skip to the bottom to get started
and skip all this babble...

First off I don't know hardly any of you, so any intro's are definitely
welcome... ME-- I'm 34 and live in California with my wife and two
little kids. Thus all the deadlines I give you will always be in
Pacific Standard Time, which has just recently changed to GMT-8. (2pm
Pacific = 5pm Eastern = 10pm GMT) I'm a Physics major by schooling, but
got into the computer world right out of high school and so now I build
networks and dabble in web design.

My deadlines-- will always be for 2pm Pacific, and usually around a week
apart. If that schedule does not work for anyone, let me know.

Being that there are lots of new players here, I've been waiting for a
good game to use this title... There's quite a few new names, and who
knows how many errors that will bring. Whatever transpires, if you do
find yourself in a lurch, do remember that this game is never over... a
1-center power can survive to the end, and a convincing leader can turn
the tides of even the worst results.

Our game_page is:
www.diplomaticcorp.com?game_id=dc133

I'll try to keep the site updated w the latest map and adjudications, so
if you bookmark that you can always see what's transpired in the game.

My house rules:
www.sims-family.net/dip/houserules.htm

(Some things to carry us thru any sticky situations that may arise)

Our forum:
dc133(at)diplomaticcorp.com
Any press you send with your orders will get posted there, as well the
adjudications, and anything else I find interesting about the game. Any
of you can mail interesting stuff directly to the forum, or you can post
via the website.

You can find our dc133 forum here:
http://www.diplomaticcorp.com/phpbb2/viewforum.php?f=43


If you want to receive email feeds of any posts regarding this game,
then go to the Message Board, and click on Subscriptions and subscribe
yourself to the distribution. You will ONLY receive mail sent about
THIS game, if you sign up to only this one forum.

Where do you send orders? TO ME: mike(at)southwall.com. Some people
make the grave heir (hehe) of sending their moves to the forum. Only
send them to me! I am on my email 24/7, so if you do not receive a
"Confirmed" email reply from me within a day, then it is very likely
that I did not receive them, and so do send again or find some other way
to contact me:

I can be reached any time via:
Yahoo Messenger: poobaloo
MSN Messenger: poobaloo
Or the forums, or via contacting either of our mods Steve or Trout.
Therefore there is always some way to get hold of me.

*******************************************

And to anyone who skipped ahead... So ya think you're a pro, huh? We'll
just see when the game's done!

Enjoy,
-mike

DC124 - Autumn 1902 Results - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
It was brought to my attention that I never sent out the retreat results. I could have sworn that I had, but I must be going senile in my young age. He's the map for Autumn. We're going to wait on winter pending a replacement for Turkey. If we can secure a replacement before I leave I'm going to have another GM run DC124 for the few weeks that I'm gone. I'll keep you all updated.

The replacement of Italy is already done. I invited another guy, and sent out new gamestart-- I cant renig on him. Says in my house rules that failure to submit orders in 01 is cause for removal. I sent out notices to send in prelims, and then a personal warning day of. So I stand by the change. Kyle you are welcome to join the next one that is recruiting and almost full.

DC 116 Vogon's Revenge - Fall 06 Deadline Extensio... - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Hi gents,

Well, we seem to be two sets of orders short for the Fall 1906 turn. However, on reviewing my records I see that Doug sent me word during the Spring turn that he would be out of town for a few days. I then went and scheduled the Fall deadline for a relatively short period (5 days..) That was my bad, and as such we'll extend a couple days to hopefully allow Doug to get into touch.

Revised Fall 06 deadline will be set for Monday, November 19th (11:59 PM GMT). Sorry guys - this one's on me.

Diplomatic Corp Newsletter, Number 4 : November. - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
ello All,

Welcome to my newsletter number 4. (some of you may get this twice as
i will be using the ol' cut and paste and sending via the new site
www.diplomaticcorp.com)

Thanks to the many people (okay 2 people) who have been asking after
my newsletters.... I've been a little unwell of late and not able to
keep up with my games (of which i discovered i'm overloaded!!) so it's
been a long time in coming.

1) General Hello

Hello to all our new members. For those who don't know me, I'm Steve
(aka Deathblade_penguin) moderator of Dc. I mainly deal with the GMs
and look after the games whilst my fellow mods (Mike Sims and Trout)
keep the site running.

Man we have a lot of games running at the moment with a lot of players
in those games. Many people ask me - why we are restricting new
members to play one game, or even why we are restricting new Gms to
play one game as well.. well it's simply a matter of, in past
experiences we've found that not every player recognises the
commitment a game needs (often 6-8 months) and some people can find it
easy to get overloaded with games (hey trust me as an experienced
player i've let myself get overloaded too).. so it's just a way of
trying to get those games running smoothly. For those of you who are
in a game suffering from CD from missing players you can see why.

However, if you are a new player and see a second game you want to
sugn up for, just drop your GM a line and they will talk to us.. (wink
wink nudge nudge, say no more)

2) Exciting NEW VARIANTS.
Man as nice as it is to play a standard game of diplomacy, sometimes
it is nice to get in a game that is a variant - something slightly
different and do we have a great range on offer.

Currently for those diplomacy addicts, Felix needs players for his
express gunboat game. Fast Deadlines.. and run by a very efficient Gm.

For those who like the slower pace we have a Youngstown variant, Hugh
is running his engineer variant, Trout's got his pandamoniom (which he
may seek players for) and I am goign to run both a Twilight Zone
diplomacy and a deluge variant. Wondering what all this means. email
me at steve(at)hotmail.com and i will tell you. or go to
www.diplomaticcorp.com and check out the OPEN GAMES site.

In fact, any questions or anything - just email me

3) Movement of Games.

As those of still follow the yahoo group, we've been moving a lot of
the new games across to their own boards there. There is also a
section called commonspace where we would like to recreate this
message board.

4) Well isn't Heroes exciting at the moment. We in Australia are a
week behind but still i thought it was fairly obvious about ol' Adam
Monroe hey,

Okay - that's it from me for this week. Any suggestions or improvment
or comments you have, please feel free to direct to the message boards
or to me at stevelytton(at)hotmail.com

DC130 ~ Imperial1840 ~ Deadline Approaching! - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
The deadline for Spring 1841 is today at 2359gmt

I have more stuff to move into storage out of my old farm - hopefully your moves will all be in when I get back and the hand of Todd will make the writing on the wall for all to see - figuratively speaking, of course.

dc130 ~ Imperial1840 ~ Future Deadlines and Holida... - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Gents,

If there are retreats this turn - we'll try to get them in very fast, and then if it works for everyone, I'd like to set the Fall deadline at midnight gmt, November 26 and Winter 41 at November 29. I hope that will skirt the US Thanksgiving Holiday.

I you're going away over the next two weeks and can't do these deadlines - please let me know and we'll adjust around it.

WOT - Back On!!! - test_gm   (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am)
Ok, we have a Full House again.
Just a few quick notes:
1. Both new players (Stephen Lytton, the Deathblade Penguin and Sean Ward, Wardus) know eachother in the Real World.
2. A request has been made that since no moves have been executed, and 5 nations have already made their alliances and plans, that it would be more 'fair' and a better representation of the map for the playtest if we reshuffled the nations and leveled the playing field.
I will put it to a vote, to close Wednesday. Everyone please respond by then with your opinion. If the vote is No, we will have our first deadline on Friday (at)9pm eastern US time.

Contact info for all Players and the current nation assignemts are below:
