I'll second the suggestion that a 5-player map is infinitely better than a 7-player map minus two powers. Last year I introduced some friends to FTF play on...
Hello, all-- Is there a way to get a list of all the dpjudge games I've played in (with country played)? The DPPD gets me my current games, but I'm a lousy...

Thanks, Garry-- Very cool & will be used by me in the future. OTOH, I still have the problem that I can't find the dpnp4??? games I was in. I guess that's...
Sorry. Not that I know of. Garry OTOH, I still have the problem that I can't find the dpnp4??? games I was in. I guess that's because they have NO_REVEAL set?...
I had a brief discussion with Manus about the following suggestion for improving the communication of Dip results on the DPJ. If interested let's have an open...
I was thinking about a way to "liven up" No Press games while still not elimininating the possibility of draws. I wasn't able to really come up with anything,...
Tarzan, do you see this only as relevant for DPJudge, or for the other judge ajudication programs out there? AFAIK, all of them currently combine the SC report...

... Not sure whether it should or should not. This is open for discussion. Also, for those of you who like Diplomacy to maintain a sense of "reality", you...
... I'd suggest making the "turn press back on" limit a bit lower. Maybe if the largest power got knocked back to 11 SCs, press would come back on. That way,...
<Long discussion of exactly what's being proposed cut out - curse reply functions> I like the idea. I suppose that one way of seeing exactly what it does to a ...
Hi all. My copy of the rulebook has gone AWOL, so forgive me for asking a reasonably infantile question. How far do the prohibitions against self-dislodgement...
Problem description How many of you diplophiles are familiar with this situation -- At the start of the game you find yourself eagerly awating results and...
Obviously there'd need to be different calculations built in for different variants. Imperial, for example, tends to start with the Index around 80+ and end up...
I like and support the general idea. Not sure if the numbers are correct or not. Furthermore, games have all different deadline structures. I've played in...
... Here's an idea... why not try something similar to chess? Give each power, for example, two weeks of total Dip time. Once orders are sent in and the...
