There is a new online tournament to start next September, called "Wonderful Mansion". The spirit of the tournament is Interzines, that is to make people from...
Just wondering, but how hard would it be to include a game option allowing for masterless games? Seems to me this shouldn't be too difficult to implement. The...
I don't know about others here, but I've had plenty of conflicts with private games, including players dropping out and needing to be replaced, and just...
Obviously its not for everyone. I'm just saying the primary reason my friends keep going back to online Risk and its variants rather than play Diplomacy here...
It depends on what type of GM you are. When I master, I use it as an opportunity to help others better their game. I keep extensive records and analyses...
I have had to answer quite a few rules questions in a number of private games I have mastered. Also in some games there have been errors in the judges...
It was some time ago now and it was with the EBAYOLA rule set so it is not very commonly used. About correcting the judges ruling. It is possible but not fun...
You can do it manually in the status file. Daniel, are we still having issues? I thought we resolved them around summer of last year. - Sam 425.228.3440 x....
I don't know if we still have those issues now. I just gave a reason for why a master would be needed. Hopefully it will never be needed again. /Daniel. ... ...
Hi Sam, Is there anyone I (or we) can contact to try to get the openings list for USDP back up? It's been a long time disconnected now .... Cheers, Thorin...

I need a replacement player for the game jinx01 (http://www.floc.net/observer.py?judge=USOS&game=jinx01&page=game) because the Ethiopian player dropped out....
Thanks, Alain. It looks like it's back up now. - Sam 425.228.3440 x. 3363 Fax: 425.656.4202 ... From: dpjudge@yahoogroups.com [mailto:dpjudge@yahoogroups.com]...
Thank you for putting USDP back on the openings list. In spite of that I'd like to advertise the postion of France in a game called Test. It's a 5/5. The...
Some of my friends from high school are scattered across the earth now, and we would like to maintain our friendships by stabbing one another in the back in a...
I wouldn't be able to master a private game (I intend on taking a break for a while so I can finish an online class that's been lingering). However, as to your...
I mastered a private game recently and am currently only mastering a couple of games, so I'd be happy to do it. I'll say that the game I mastered started off...
Hi, I'm looking to set up a real time game this Sunday (July 27th) at 2 PM CDT with a group that I've played some longer-time-frame games with in the past....
To my knowledge, REAL_TIME is functional. But not many use it so let me know if there's a problem. What do you mean by "variable length"? - Sam Phone:...
Variable Length Dip, from the "mix-in" rule variants listed on the main DPJudge page: http://www.diplom.org/Zine/S1998R/Norman/VarLength.html Looking through...
No, you're not missing anything. This variant isn't officially supported. The first rule is already done. The second rule is the hard one (the one about...
Manually supporting variable length is easy enough; I even trust the players to concede at the right time if necessary. The need to use the PROCESS command to...
I was registered under a different email address when I last played. Since my last game (about two years ago) I changed email accounts. I am unable to register...
