The Speaker
Since House Republicans are having a difficult time finding someone for them to elect as Speaker that actually wants the job, do you think we could get them to nominate someone from webDip? It could be a brilliant way to kickstart a political career, especially if we aren't Republican yet by some miracle actually make it there. Are there any willing among us?

Bugged Country Draw?
Hey guys,

One of our friends (http://www.webdiplomacy.net/profile.php?userID=62648&page-games=1#top), out of 6 normal diplomacy games (one in progress), has drawn Germany 6 out of 6 times. That has a 8.49 * 10^-6 chance of happening. It seems like his account is probably bugged somehow?

How do you join a private game
I have created a private game for my friends to join...but I can't figure out how to send them a link that would easily enable them to join (i.e. a page where all they have to do is enter the password). Please help.

Full results to follow, but congratulations to our winner, Chris Barfield! Chris's solo in the second round stood up, and though Robert Gesualdo and Rick Desper both had excellent scores, they could not overtake him, finishing in second and third respectively. 39 individual attendees, 14 boards of diplomacy, 9+ first-time Tempest attendees including several first-time tournament players, and Tempest2015 is in the books!

Penny stocks
Penny stocks have recently caught my eye and was wondering if there are anyone here who have had any experiences with them. From what I can tell they have the tendency to be quite risky but also can be quite rewarding if one knows what they are doing.
