Ray Tensing Indicted for Murder of Samuel DuBose
http://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2015/07/29/publish/30830777/

I'm glad Tensing had a body camera on. I'm glad the grand jury indicted him. Unless there's something acutely relevant that's off-camera and missing here, I'll be glad when he gets convicted of murder.

There is something I just don't get, concerning in-game messaging
I have noticed that in-game messaging can be completely disabled. Obviously that would not have any reason to be so without "Anonymous Players" enabled at the same time. So my question is this : What's the point with games having Anon and no in-game messaging? The whole point of Diplomacy is gone. I really don't get the appeal, because I have noticed that there is a number of games with those parameters.

I'm considering doing something and I'm wondering how to go about it.
I can't complete the action completely on my own, but I do want to be in control of what I'm doing, and keep all the money I'll probably make as a result of the activity. I haven't defined which action I'm considering taking, but I know that people successfully carry out activities all over the world, nearly every day. Can anyone give me advice?

Well, I've heard that the best way to be a success in business is to sell goods or services at a profit. So, how can I take that concept and apply it to the actions I'm thinking of taking?

While hiring people may be your best bet, try your best to recruit interns. Im sure your activities require some sort of desired skill. Get yourself some trainees. It's free, and you're giving much needed experience and knowledge to the youth. And it's free. Try family members. Do you have any young cousins? Nephews? Boom. And maybe if they do a good job, give them 5 bucks. Bam.

Pre-order a copy and it will be like water under a bridge.
"it will be like water under a bridge."
Is that the name of it, then?
steephie22 (182 D(S))
31 Jul 15 UTC
Nope. I dubbed the project "The Agony of Chance", but the game itself has no title yet. Maybe I'll connect the project title and the game title somehow.
"Dicey Choices"?

Also, no I didn't mind the jesting, but it would be useful to know if there are any sincere critics. I understand everyone smiles and jokes when seeing my next thread title, which is an effect I'm proud of causing, but it makes it much harder to see who is genuinely critical.

In Honor of Sandgoose's Baby I See It Fitting That We Should Help Pick Out A Name
So, knowing it's a boy, there's no better time to start than now. Offer a suggestion or repeat someone else's suggestion and add a +1 after it. For example, Josh is a great name. If someone else liked that best, they would put Josh +1 or increment the counter. I'm sure SG will name it based on the most +1's. After all, he's a webdipper at heart.

Reason for Amazon Gift Card?
Amazon sent me a 25USD Gift Card to me, *at my work*, and I have no idea why. I've checked my Amazon account, I've checked my email account, absolutely nothing about me receiving one, much less at my work. Nothing but "Thank You" with the card. Thoughts? Known way of knowing?
