LW October WebDiplomacy

post by Vaniver · 2011-10-10T17:43:22.541Z · LW · GW · Legacy · 5 comments

A month ago we tried to start up two WebDiplomacy games with LW users; only one of them got off the ground, and just finished the 1905 turn. This month, we're trying again, and since the method I used to try and extract time preferences didn't work as well as I hoped last time, I'll try something new.

If you would like to get in on a Diplomacy game with other LW users, please respond with a comment expressing your desire (between 1 and 0) to play in a game based on its turn length: 24, 36, 48, or 72 hours. (You don't need to make 0s explicit.) For example, if you can't play in a 24 hour game, could play in a 36 hour game or 72 hour game, but really want to play in a 48 hour game, then you might comment with something like "(0, .8, 1, .6)" or "24: 1; 36: .8; 72: .6". Please express your interest by midnight on 10/15 so we can get any games started on the 16th.

If October isn't a good month for you, but you'd like to make sure I make another Diplomacy thread in November, leave a comment to that effect.

The September game is not, in fact, over yet though it is likely to be so by 1907 or thereabouts.

I'm open to playing in another game, but I will wait at the back of the line behind anyone who hasn't had a chance to play in at least one game yet.

(24:0.2, 36:0.8, 48:1, 72:0)

I meant to say that they finished the year, not the entire game; I understand how that looks ambiguous, though. I'll edit it to be clearer.

Oops. Probably should have specified a quantified confidence level for this one.
