Utopia
Thomas Moore's book (which I am about to start reading) represents what is in his view, a Utopian society. Given this book was written almost 500 years ago, there is no doubt that Moore's ideas are outdated and maybe in some case perceived as unethical in our society.

Sp, my question for all would be, say you were the author of Utopia, what would be the setting of your book?

If you are one of those total nutjobs that is so far out of touch with any molecule of reality that you are a 9-11 truther then I would recommend you not clicking on the link I provide because the article totally demolishes your fantasies.

Iceland...
Iceland is not in its proper position on the WebDiplomacy map (meaning that it is not that close to England in actuality), so why would it even be included on the map if it serves no other purpose. WHY IS IT THERE?

Annoying Player Help
A friend of mine playing web diplomacy told me he had a player called King Atom in his game, but feels the player is very annoying and wants help dealing with the problem. Is there any way to kick a player out of a game or block them from joining a public game for future reference.

Games paused?
I may have missed the thread on this, but is there any way for a mod to now unpause the games that have been put on pause since the glitch has happened at least 24 hours ago? In world games where there are a fair few who have already CDed, it would be great to get moving!

The second you mock the death of ANY relative, let alone the death of someone in the midst of one of the greatest tragedies in modern times, you out yourself as officially lacking in integrity and intelligence and, above all, being one motherfucking waste of space, time, and hot air.

9/11 is shitty, but so were the wars they started. Remember all the victims of this decade of war.

Senegalese TV interviewed me about my thoughts on 9/11 and Islam, I told them that Islam is obviously a religion of peace. In Senegal Christians celebrate Muslim holidays and visa versa. Asalaamaleikoum means peace be with you.

I'm glad it was me getting interviewed and repping American and not fasces.

Thucy, there is no such thing as "religion of peace". There are fanatics in every religion, and the only question is how many fanatics there are, what do they do and how the rest of the followers of the religion react to it. It occures, by pure accident, that most fanatics that murdered people in the last few decades due to their religion were Muslims. Should I remind you how the Palestinians reacted to 9/11?

@fiedler: Me? Troll?

@Thucy: It is not an act of an individual. Every year hundreds of peaceful people die in the hands of Muslim terrorists, and hundreds of thousands are threatened by them. It does not mean that ALL Muslims are terrorists. However, you cannot ignore the fact that most of the terrorists are Muslims.

Um, some people got really tired of America bombing them and decided to see how we like it.
Um, too bad the United Stats never bombed the countries of any of the hijackers before 9/11 you twit. It must make you feel so good to be so smug
its amazing how someone who looks down on anyone who is not him as horribly misinformed, is himself clueless.

Its a shame there are so many colossal assholes on this site.

Its a shame that the children who play here feel it necessary to make disgusting comments that they would be terrified of making to a real person's face.


Regardless of the religious mess revolving around 9/11, regardless of the causation (america's hideous foreign policies) the people who dies in 9/11 were not the people who were responsible for those foreign policies. The people who dies were innnocents.

For all of the adults here, I'm glad that we can respect 9/11 on this app, and for those who suffered a personal tragedy that day, you have my condolences.

For you children who are too immature to understand when to be respectful and when to be facetious : this is not the thread for you. You remind me why I hate.

It has been a 20 year conflict of interests between United States foreign policies and the middle eastern struggle for freedom from their oppressive US-backed governments. The tragedy here is that the people dying - the people in the 4 planes that crashed on 9/11, the people in the towers themselves, the refugees in Palestine driven out by US-backed Israeli aggression - these are the people who suffered as a result, and I feel sad for all of them, for none of them deserved to suffer in the misguided interests of a few.

The people being killed by buss bombs in israel. Oh forgot, they are Jews they dont count...

A lot of people who are asshats online use the excuse that IRL they are real good people. Why is this considered a valid excuse? Is it because of the perceived anonymity of the web, like road rage? If you wouldn't call someone a faggot IRL, why would you do it here?

Guessing game
So I got home from one social event, few beers were unlucky enough to meet my stomach and so on. Then I got hungry and fried me 7 late-night eggs. The problem was I forgot I wasn't supposed to feed the whole family as usually but only myself, yet I used the same amount of oil and butter. The eggs literally swam in grease. Of course I ate them, I'm a pig/scrooge, but what will my intestines say? To find out whether there is any consensus on this complicated subject, I propose a guessing game.

How common is soloing without backstabbing?
I've been in the endgame a few times with a strong position, but I hate the idea of turning on someone I've been working with since turn 1. It just... it's a terrible bad vibe, y'know? You have a good time playing together for a couple hours, coordinating, etc, I don't want to stab after that.

Other players might make poor tactical moves or fight at bad times, but how common is solo-winning based on that? Are people who try to not stab their allies consigned to lots of draws?

Just wanted everybody to know i have just won my first game here. I'm happy and was actually thinking of doing an AAR, but perhaps that is going just a tad too far? I don't know, is that the done thing? You tell me.
Oh, game ID#66745.
Was a close run thing for a little while, bugger England hit me hard, but luckily didn't land the knock-out punch. He's licking his wounds now.
