Ray Lewis
I used to watch this guy when I was 6 or 7 and imitate his pregame routines... he was the greatest linebacker I ever got to watch. I wore #52 on my jersey when I played football in middle school and I would have before then if they had gone that high. I know I'm going to miss watching him. Come this Sunday I have to choose my favorite player or my favorite team... whatever happens, I know I'll miss Ray Lewis.

Just one more example of lies coming out of the media.
If you've seen the news recently, then you've probably heard that a deal on the fiscal cliff will come out of the Senate, and it's up to the House to vote on it. Actually, the CONSTITUTION (as if these weisels read it) states that all bills dealing with revenue and finances must come out of the House of Representatives. I just wanted to point that out to you, and hopefully shed some light on what else is in the Constitution that we are ignoring (i.e. 2nd & 10th Amendments)

Does anyone here ever play FtF with irl friends?
And if you do, how do you prevent metagaming? In my experiences playing FtF, metagaming is rampant, but maybe that's just because of the group of friends I play with.

Why Is Obama Good?
I would like to know why people think Obama is good? I personally believe that he is a very bad president but I am also open to let people convince me otherwise. Why or why not is he a good president?

Am I the only one that feels like a complete dick after stabbing someone for an 18th center when you know you'd be stuck in a four or five way draw without their help?

No, the stabbie should feel like a dick for letting you get 18.

Stab away. This isba game about winning. If your ally is stupid enough to leave himself exposed then good for you and stupid bad for him.

If you don't stab him then he will end up believing that what he did was good play, and will do it again. In ten years time, when the game is popular across the world and there are multi-million dollar tournaments televised every few months, this same player will do the same thing, get stabbed, and lose a fortune. I'll be damned if I'll have that on my conscience!

There is some trouble wth cash tournaments, which have been thought about... Unfortunately diplomacy isn't poker, (though betting on how well you will do makes for a nice variant) and i don't think it ever will be (sorry to shatter your dreams there...)

That said if people are interested in running a cash tournament i'm interested in finding out relevant details!

It's the game's objective, as per rulebook lol,
maybe you've seen too many draws around here lol
Octavious (2732 D)

The only trouble with cash tournaments is that they don't exist. They would be easy enough to run, though, along similar lines to The Masters perhaps. Everyone pays in x, and the tournament winner claims half of the pot, with the other half divided equally between those who soloed (those who solo twice get two shares etc etc, obviously).
You should never feel bad for a stab that results in your solo. If the solo was there to be had, it's the stabee's fault for allowing that situation to exist.
You shouldn't feel bad about it. I certainly don't when I have the opportunity.
