For the diplomacy judge game, someone needs to make some solid
suggestins, so I propose the following which I hope we will vote yes or
no on:


1.  full disclosure of Identities?  Yes or No
     I vote yes

2.  Do you folks accept the below game parameters?
        I vote yes

For game parameters, I suggest:
  Move    clock 1410 min 12.00 next  71.00 grace  48.00 delay 0.50 days
-mTWTF-
  Retreat clock   -1 min  0.00 next  47.00 grace  24.00 delay 0.50 days
-mTWTF-
  Adjust  clock   -1 min  0.00 next  47.00 grace  24.00 delay 0.50 days
-mTWTF-
   Access:  Any-site, Level: Any, Moderated, Dedication: -1000.
  Variant:  Standard.
    Flags:  NoNMR, NoProxy, DIAS.
   xFlags:  HomeCentres, Concessions, Max Absence: 15.
    Press:  White, Partial Allowed, No Fake.
    Press Restrictions: 
  Power Assignments: By Preference List Only.
  Winning Centers: 18.

This all means that diplomacy lasts up to three days, up to two days
for retreats and builds, deadlines fall only on weekdays, we can press
each other as we want but our own identity is known to whomever we
press.  For example, I can send a note to England and when England gets
the note, he knows it comes from me.

3.  I suggest we call the game somthing like:  MN2004.  yes or no?
     Yes for me.



By the way, for full disclose, an on-line dip friend will be mastering
this game.  He and I  are playing a game together now.  He stabbed me
about two moves ago, and I am in middle of throwing the game to another
player to make a solo (the other player will make a solo, I will lose as
will our proposed master.  I'm dragging him down with me.)   The game is
clgfp1 on USVG.  He is Austria, I am Italy, and I'm throwing to England.
 His name is Karlis Povisils - a highly rated player.
