As you may know, the Online Diplomacy Championship (ODC) is taking place over at webdiplomacy.net this year. Information about sign-ups is here.
The good news about the tournament being hosted at webdip is that many of the players who sign up will be webdip regulars, and they are all...complete trash below our standard.
I'm going to play, and probably win the whole thing. But that doesn't mean that you can't jump on in and make it an all Playdip final table.
Here is the PlayDip Top 20 and whether they have agreed to play so far. Blue means they are in:
1 Conq (2437)
2 DarthWader (2160)
3 norlight (2122)
4 akiy0003 (1931)
5 FloridaMan (1891)
6 Lukan (1837)
7 Pootleflump (1836)
8 dib (1834)
9 machor (1795)
10 Badger1991 (1788)
11 captainnemo55555 (1753)
12 刺 (1753)
13 suvin123 (1736)
14 danocles (1730)
15 manson0251 (1718)
16 EDP (1708)
17 Zosimus (1696)
18 WarSmith (1685)
19 V (1677)
20 Brumark (1658)
Action Items:
1. If you are not on this Top 20 list, you should still totally play. You are likely already better than the best Webdip regular.
2. We need to bug the non-blue characters above to toss their hats into the ring and represent.
3. We need to tell gsmx to stop being a chicken and actually to play real live Diplomacy against real life Internet people again so that he will appear on this list too.
4. We need to introduce me to that dude with the Chinese "thorn" character name because he seems like a badass that I should know.
