Description

The Diplomacy Adjudicator is a fully computer-moderated gamemaster for Hasbro's Diplomacy boardgame. To get more information from the moderator, send email with the word "HELP" in the body of the message (the subject is ignored) to judge@morrolan.diplom.org. There are also other judges available; see the web page for details.

Diplomacy is probably the biggest PBEM game out there, with 583 games going as of August, 1997. I'd estimate at least 2,000 players are active in one or more games. Most discussion related to Diplomacy takes place on the newsgroup rec.games.diplomacy.
