The Trondheim Diplomacy League

Originally, I started hosting these games because we here in Trondheim are too few to get 7 together for a standard game. We could, potentially, play smaller variants, but the standard variant is, of course, the "real thing". So that is why it is called "the Trondheim Diplomacy league", it is still open to anyone, anywhere - just let me know if you want to play. Contact information: janbu at online.no by email, and ICQ# 76434480.

If one of the names/nicknames below is yours, and you want it listed as something else, let me know. Also, please do use the name shown on the list when you sign up for games, so I won't have to start merging records and other such extra work. And please find something you're happy with rather quickly. I don't want to substitute names in more than, say, three games.

This page came into existence after some insistence I put such a page up. There had already been played at least 20 games among us at this point, so the history is not complete.

See the results from 2004 here. I plan to make a Hall of Fame and so on, but we'll see if time permits.

Rules and scoring system:

  • Games play until 1912, or until someone acquires more than 17 centers, whichever comes first.
  • No press in any of the games.
  • A player getting more than 17 centers, gets 100 points.
  • If a player gets more than 17 centers, all others get 0.1 point per played year, and 0.1 point per center when game ends.
  • If no player gets more than 17 centers, then each surviving player gets 1 point per center owned when game ends, and the non-surviving get 0.1 point per played year. In addition, there are points for position: 38 for first, 14 for second, and 7 for third. These points are shared equally between the players tying for these positions, if applicable. The survivors get 2 points for the game instead of 1.2 points for the years played.
  • The best three games of a player counts for 100% of the score. The fourth scores 90%, the fifth scores 80% and so on, with a 10% reduction for each game beyond the third. The score does not go below 10%.
