Are we still talking about Defcon here? :?

I love Diplomacy. I also like fairly slow games. So, if I'm around, I'll definitely join in :)
Here is my signature. Make of it what you will.

My servers are usually called << Diplomacy >> and I won't shut it down before the end. Do join if you see it, I enjoy good banter during a game, helps the quieter moments pass along.

Cheers

Hey guys. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who's responded so far. I've sent you all a PM to try and co-ordinate a game for this coming Tuesday. Hope to see you then, otherwise it'll just be me sitting behind a password protected server looking like an idiot!

Hehe...I Had a game of this Earlier, I Was NA and had Subs off Korea, they were ratted out by the USSR Player who was getting kinda close to my side of the Pacific, so my Bombers escorting him dropped a Nuke on his Ship, combined with a 'GTFO Meh Sea!' Made him think twice about that :twisted: And while that was happening the Europe Player gave my Subs Escort past Europe and right next to Moscow... In the end I got kicked out the Alliance, I Fired my Subs at Moscow yet all but one Nuke to Leningrad were shot down, I fired my nukes at Asia from Subs I had moved to Hong Kong and they all got beaten too..I Lost. But I LOVED The Earlier Diplomacy, going after others to save yourself.

Does the server list still do that thing where it only shows you some of the active games? I've had situations where I've had a good game, agreed to meet up with the same players for a 2nd match, and you can't find the server anywhere.

Hopefully won't have any trouble finding the game.

Shoot you later!

I'm in the UK under the name eDDie, my server is called eDDie's World and is always intelligent, good-natured Diplo with a lot of fun and a will to win.

I usually play during the working day - shhhhhh don't tell anyone ;)

I'd like to jump on the bandwagon here (an act that usually results in horrible injury), and add my support for the Diplomacy game mode. I've spent lots of time spectating diplo matches, as I find that watching the mayhem unfold whilst providing a caustic running commentary proves even more entertaining sometimes than participating in said mayhem directly.

Still, there's all that about "putting your money where your mouth is", so I'm now beginning to join diplo games myself; however, I suck big time still. I'm also creating Diplomacy servers around 1800-2200 UTC occasionally, named A friendly game of diplo. Hope to see y'all soon.

You can see me hosting or joining those games as well....strangely enough, when I created a game yesterday with the header dippy mode- slow game, nobody wanted to join... :-)

So, I joined another game and was trampled by some guys (excellent game BTW) as the US, still I had fun kicking the SA traitor with my last subs from second place to second to last (last was me with 14 points).

Couldn't get into your game Hamster - just wouldn't connect, even after I deactivated my router's firewall. :-(

Just so you know I didn't forget. Mebbe try again some time.
