Recently i have noticed that people have been showing less and less respect for diplomacy games, on many cases i have encountered players who when one turns pe others support them rather than the victim, this has happened in at least two diplo games i have been in, and being a true diplo fan this upsets me.
https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=8986389 in this game when Jack attacked me without declaration, an attack which is clearly unprovoked as i hadnt been very active in that game, instead of attacking jack mike attacks me without declaring, furthermore when i tried to give my land to gus so he could win he promised to give the land to mike, this upsets me as i have always enjoyed diplomacy and i would prefer it stay as it used to be. While some may argue that they simply wanted to have fun, then a diplomacy game is not a place for that, they are supposed to be organized and diplomatic and if you dont want diplomacy dont join

'so he could win'

Diplomacy games always were hell. Stick to 1v1 ^_^

Join a clan. Clan-based diplomacy games will always be superior to Open Games.

You should join diplomacy games with 15 - 25 players. They'll be more tight-knit.

You should join games in general with good prereqs to filter out the noobs.

Try to stay away from rules intensive diplomacies. One of the best diplomacy games I ever played was with the RP clan and it was Spheres of Influence. There was almost no rules except " US and USSR can't attack each other". It was excellent. Props to them by the way.

I would love to join a clan but no one ever returns my mail

Send me a mail and I promise I will return it. Also diplo games haven't gone to hell if you play with the right people (like a clan).



Stop moaning.

I don't do diplo, so what happens in your US v USSR game when one or the other is defeated? Is it ffa?

Don't ask logical questions! This is a diplomacy thread! -.-

Experienced same shit already. One guy (i am 90% sure an alt of someone: "[NL] Sealord" https://www.warlight.net/Profile?p=3246344177) fucked up because he obviously misread the rules about "declare and place attack orders the next turn".

But he read something, because he did declare when he was the last one to place orders and literally one minute after he was inside the enemies ground. After his rulebreaking became clear, he tried to intrigue with everyone and used arguments like "well you have to accept my demands now, because if i stay a PE i will eliminate you".
Many of his neighbors did not attack, and that shit kinda and its consequenzes kinda ruined the match. Ended with a VTE.

You can read the pathetic chat here if you are really bored:

Ive been in a ton of shit diplos but lately ive been seeing it less and less. I mainly get experienced people, and personally I love the style of diplos, but eh everyone has their own opinion.

Jack handey who is in that game is known for being a sick son of a birch tree and will most likely become a pe. To have fun in diplomacy you need to get invited to games by nice people like only the pie most people in there are nice and we usually have a good time. Ask him for an invite to any upcoming games when he gets back from vacation.

^This

Play games with the diplo clans. GRID diplos, USSR diplos, etc. Try and get on someones friend list and get invited. Our games are usually pretty filtered because all the bad players are blacklisted and can't join ^_^

I've never liked Jack, he whined like constantly the majority of this game https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=9003903

I can enter you in some diplo's if you want, they aren't the best but they aren't awful. Also try a level 20 filter.

Nice to see the typical elitism from the pair...
