InterDiplomacy Game (Not a Diplo Game)

I have provided a forum for the game to be organized: http://z9.invisionfree.com/Inter_Dip...ex.php?act=idx

You may sign up there as well.

The Inter Diplomacy game was an idea I came up with after playing in the CivIV Democracy Game (at civfanatics.) The CivIV Multi-Team Democracy Game (at civfanatics) and the CivIV Intersite Democracy Game, as well as RealPolitik 2 (at evolution games.)

With that said I have tried to wield all the concepts of the above games together to create the most realistic and fun simulation of Diplomatic Relations between countries based on CivIV.

The International Diplomacy Game (IDG for short) is a multi-player game where 4 (we may decide on 5) teams compete. It may sound like the MTDG, however there is one huge difference. Anything goes. There are no precedents or rules a team must follow. All arrangements thinkable are allowed. There is no set government structure that must be followed, as each team (with the help of team captain) will create their own team rules and government structure.

A description of all the teams and their government structure will be posted for all players not assigned to a team to look over, and decide which team they want to join.

The only requirment is for each team to have a team captain. The only job of the team captain is to moderate the team's private forum and organize the team before a government structure is drafted. I will personally select each team captain.

To view the general rules (more like do's and dont's) you may find them in a stickied post in this thread.

Thank You.

Hm. While it might accurately describe your game methods you might reconsider the name of this play style. There is already a prominate alternative play style around here called "diplo" thus diplomacy games. Might cut down on confusion and help build your own following.

Read the FAQ of diplo(macy)games here: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...hreadid=150698

As you can see this is not a small game concept but a huge thing with much history!
Confusion is very likely as Frank Johnson already explained.

Cool project! Good luck!

Link doesn't work.

-edit by CyberShy- don't copy and paste the link! it's only partly shown (hence the ......). Click on it or right click on it and open it in a new window.

-edit by OzzyKP - editing people's posts is fun, isn't it?

Agreed, Frank. As a matter of fact, I just went here expecting to find another diplogame in the works. Also the acronym IDG will no doubt be confused with the already agreed on acronym for the InterSite Democracy Game, ISDG.

[ice2k4]

Sorry about confusion. I'm more active on CFC where diplo game isn't commonly used. I've been thinking of a name for it. Might use a German translation of something, possibly latin translation.

(Edited the title a bit for less confusion.)

You two are grade-A bastards, you know that?

I never copy and paste the link, I've tried clicking on it and nothing comes up. Only a blank browser window.


-edit by OzzyKP - works fine for me....

The links are broken in the OP. I think someone (I wonder who ) copied and pasted them from CFC.

[Prussia]

Why won't you mods actually post something, for a change?

Anyways, yeah, the links in the OP are blank. And I've tried everything, trust me.

[Robert]

I don't want to fill this thread with mod-posts, I'd rather edit a post in which a question is raised then spam it.
And it seems indeed that the OP has wrong links.

I'm amazed that it worked for Ozzy though! He must have special powers!

You are quite the saint.

I TOLD YOU IT DIDN'T WORK! AND YOU CALLED ME CRAZY! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

-edit by CyberShy- I did?

[MMC]

Perhaps the newly appointed mods could prove that their appointment wasn't caused by hackers by FIXING THE BROKEN LINKS.

[Robert]

I have no idea how I can fix such a link. Please now let this topic get back to it's original subject.

Oh, I just meant that the link you posted to the DiploFAQ worked. The OP links are definitely wrong.

It's easy... just replace the url with http://z9.invisionfree.com/Inter_Dip...Game/index.php
Problem solved.

Of course... once the links work.
