Openness: As a sculptor views an uncarved slab of marble with an open-mind, so does a new player view a game of Diplomacy. The history of the game unwritten, the paths it will take and the shape of the results lie in the future, to be known only after the contest is completed.

Just another thought:
If the standard view of the Players list would be static (say generated once a day) wouldn't that speed it up a lot? That page should be able to load immediately.
An information refresh of once a day will meet most of our needs I'd say. For everything else - actual information, or differently sorted - a user could always click away from the standard page at the cost of a slower load.

Yeah the player list does load a bit slow as the number of players grows.
Three options...

- Purge players who sign up but never play a game. (greatest speed improvement)
- Change the player list to only show players who have played a game. (moderate speed improvement)
- Remove some of the columns from the player list. (speed improvement at the cost of some information)

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
