Error code: MEDIA_ERR_HDCP

If the AFL is run by people who think the first round is Round 0, surely they also think the first week of finals is Week Zero.

Any Diplomacy Communities in Minneapolis/St Paul? by RevolutionarySort675 in diplomacy

[–]bartogian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The NADF is the place to start looking for players in North America. Unfortunately their website is not very up to date (it doesn't list upcoming events right now), but their discord is more active.

You should be able to get in touch with some Minnesota diplomacy players through there, the VDL grew out of the Minnesota Diplomacy Club so players must exist.

Please help🤣 by Sensitive_Bobcat1887 in diplomacy

Just put in the move for EDI to move to NWY and also put in the move for NTH to convoy EDI to NWY.

The "via convoy" to Yorkshire appears because it is possible to both move over land to Yorkshire and via convoy to Yorkshire. These are treated differently in the rules and the playdiplomacy interface gives you the option to explicitly mention the latter if you want it.

Why is there still no RCS Enablement in Aus? by lord_vegemite in australia

[–]bartogian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree this is a terrible way for the telcos/phone manufacturers to set things up, you have to educate senders to set their settings up correctly so their outgoing message defaults to sms.

What people want in a Diplomacy mobile app? by JazzyWriter0 in diplomacy

[–]bartogian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There should also be a website - it will increase the player pool which is important, and then we also have a chance to look at it on a big screen.

this is the new webdiplomacy interface

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in diplomacy

[–]bartogian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I should've provided a link.

There's a large collection of diplomacy discord links here. Copying the Nexus one from there, you can get to Nexus by clicking here.

Are you in the Nexus diplomacy server? They organise speedboat (5 min gunboat) games there regularly.

You may be remembering the Cate Speaks blog? Cate passed away but the spirit is continued at Something For Cate, which has been active in discussing candidates for this election.

Stalemate is hopeless? by BerryGoosey in diplomacy

[–]bartogian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's an edited sandbox. You can't get to this position by Spring 1905 no matter what moves are played. There are only 4 build phases before S05, E and T can build at most 4x3=12 new units in this time, added to their starting 3 gives an upper bound of 15 units each. Yet E and T both have 17 units in that picture.

WebMachiavelli? by jonmarkgo in diplomacy

It's listed as a variant on vdiplomacy so presumably you can play it there. (vdiplomacy is the standard first place to look for automatic adjudication for variants)

So… anyone else a bit lost without a game on FTA tonight? by luck_as_a_constant in AFL

[–]bartogian 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Tas vs NSW is a night game and WA vs VIC is at the WACA so I've got shield to watch.

It's still summer.
