Sand, you want to play in that game? I could give a shot at mastering one if you want in.

No Late Receive- Private press may not be sent to any power that has not submitted orders after a deadline.

No Late Changes- In games using this rule, no changes can be made to any already-submitted orders after a deadline has passed.

Civil Disorder- Any power that has not submitted orders: when the game's Master submits a PROCESS command, or when the deadline has passed (or, if a grace period is specified in the TIMING line of the game's status file, before the expiration of the grace period), will have its orders entered automatically. During movement phases, all units will HOLD, during retreat phases, all dislodged units will DISBAND, and during adjustment phases, all builds will be WAIVED, and all removals will be entered using random choice from among the power's on-board units, with preference given to retaining units that are situated on supply centers. (see CD Retreats below.)

CD Retreats- All powers in civil disorder during a retreat phase will retreat any dislodged units randomly, preferably into supply centers. Without this rule, units in civil disorder will DISBAND in retreat phases. Note that if neither the CIVIL_DISORDER nor the CD_DUMMIES rules are specified, all powers (whether dummy or not) will have their retreat orders default at the deadline if they have not been submitted.

Eavesdrop- The Master is sent a copy of all private press messages.

"Press" is the communication between players. You use the judge to communicate to other players. Once the game has started, you'll see the press menu on the DPJudge web page. It's fairly intuitive.

Country assignments will be determined randomly. The game is set for a 3 day wait for each movement phase, but I think I'll set the first move for 5 days to give you some time to get all your press out. In my experience, it seems that the vast majority of the communication happens in the first few moves (years). After that, it tends to slow down a bit as the lines of battle become more distinct.
