Multiple Accounts....
I recently discovered that my friend (Shmoop/dmindlin824/olminlin) actually has multiple accounts. In one game, he even played with two of his accounts at once (and still lost...). What would be the appropriate action to take at this point?

question for name on board game for market
Im making a board game for the market and im taking a pole on which name is better. The two names are war of 4 and Generals command. I know you do not know anything about the game. Dont worry about that. The names have hardly anything to do with discribing it anyway. Im just trying to find out which of the two names you like best.

Instead of "War of 4," why don't you do something like, "The [Whatever] Wars," like, "The Peninsula Wars" or "The Banana Wars." It has more of a ring to it imho.

I like semck's idea better.
Of the two choices, General's Command (maybe GenCom) sounds slightly better

I wouldn't get too optimistic about the marketability of your game thar, buddy. If you're taking a pole on which name is better, why not Roxie Sweetcocker? She's a beaut of a name, especially if she has a pole to work with.

Lol. Believe me ive been doing lots of research on board games and i realize it is no esay task to get one sold to a company. As for the manul that is well taken care of. The two names i mentioned were simply to get opinions on. For the proto type i am going to still use one or the other of the two names. If the company wishes to change that fine by me. As for being optimistic about my game the only reason i am is because only everbody that played it loved it and wants to play again.

I'd go with a one-word title. You should call it "Risk" or "Stratego" or "Operation". Something like that would really increase your sales. Also, get a good lawyer.
"War" and "The Generals" are already taken.

How about "Genitals Command"? (GenCom). It might get my attention.

neither - if the number 4 has any important role, why not leaving it at "4"? or a variant? and General's Command sounds not very attracting to me in any meaning… and Waropoly really sounds great to me!

Split the difference - 'Waropoly 4'. It's gonna be great!

You should call it "Diplomasee".The spelling change should prevent copyright infringement.

I too prefer "War of Four" (you should spell it out because rhymes are cooler when they aren't spelled the same).

General's Command sounds generic as hell, I can just see the picture on the front cover now and I'd write it off as a risk ripoff.

I also recommend "Custer's Revenge," as a name, but you'd probably have to buy the name from Atari :P

Waropoly. Wow, I want to play that already!

Just want to double check a rule.
If Germany is doing a self bounce such as Hol-Ruhr, Mun-Ruhr
Would a French move of Piccardy supporting the attack into Ruhr from Munich, and at the same time Burgandy-Munich work for France ? Not exactly sure how the attacking your own troops rules works.

Gay sensitivity classes in primary school?
I just read a very disturbing article (in Dutch) about gay sensitivity classes in primary school. Isn't this the kind of stuff that you teach your kids at home? "If you're gay, you can just say so, we're all human." You're supposed to know and admit that you're gay when you barely hit puberty? Disturbing.
