* remove the bit about requiring province swaps to be honoured from the "diplomacy and trades" section (so economic trades still must be honoured, but not territory swaps)

Does anyone have any issues with these changes?
Yes.

You spelt my name wrong.


Anyway, my reasoning is 50 site frequence is fun, score graphs are essential to keeping track of what is happening around you, and provience trades are typically tied to NAPs or whatever.

No problem here, either.

The change to site frequency and diplomacy rules sounds fine to me. As for the score graph, well, I suppose I'm cool with that. Yeah, it makes everyone's positions clear, but it also eliminates most of the information brokering/propaganda minigame.

I think you'll be surprised how much it doesn't. In my limited experience, while you can check how big someone is from the graph, where someone is, and what they are doing is just as relevant.

Diplomacy (the board game) has more information available about board position, and that has a huge amount of information brokering ad grey press!

Turns out everyone got their first choice of nation, which is excellent.

The game is now up at llamaserver and ready for people to submit their pretenders:

If you could put a post in the thread letting me know when you have posted your pretender (to make sure no-one tries to jump the queue and steal your place) that would be great :-)

I notice that quite a few of you (who have just created accounts I suspect) haven't turned on the PM (private message) function on the forum user control panel.

I'd recommend you do this, as a lot of diplomacy is conducted this way (its a lot quicker and easier than just using the in-game messaging function).

The guys who have PMs off are: GFSnl; Decrepus; and Tzarin.
