Best Show on TV Right Now?
Okay, so recently I have been watching the show Person of Interest (It's on CBS) and I have to tell you, it is amazing. The characters are fleshed out, it has an amazing mythology and it shows an amazing spin on our age of surveillance. To me, it may be the best show on TV right now. If you;ve seen it, do you agree? And regardless, what do you think is the best show on TV right now?

Poll: What do you do when you learn a stab is coming?
So through your system of spies and side alliances and general instinctiveness you get a pretty good indication that your ally is about to stab you. What go-to strategy do you generally like to employ?

Setting up a WD IX game, need players!

webDip Facebook Group
I know one of these already exists - what happened to it? There are a ton of new members here that never had a chance to join that group.

I'm happy to make a new one if anyone is interested. The old one seems pretty dead.

@abge ... I'll let you know. Just send me your Chase account number so I can verify your identity, because you never know when someone has hacked your webDip account. (That's right, I just used your own meme against you.)

"Because Draug and the like have nothing better to do than make fake FB's to join a group they were banned from..."

Most of them do. Draug is the one that doesn't. He'll probably be in within the next couple of days knowing him.

Everyone knows his name though. Creating a fake Facebook to join a webDip group would be just about the most pathetic thing anyone has ever done.

Oh, wow. Someone did create one last month:

I wonder if they actually play here. In any case, I still think the webDipMod Google account should set an official one up.

Identity theft isn't a joke Jim! Millions of families suffer every year!
Nice idea, although I would be really worried that on site personal animosity would turn into something that is an issue in the real world, or at least, potentially could. Especially as some of us (myself) may be a bit of a douche on here on occasion

Maybe the thing to do is not be a douche? :)
Aha, +1, but I fear I have already been too much of a douche that it is too late for me to change people's perception of me.
zultar (4180 DMod(P))
09 Jan 15 UTC
So your conclusion from having been a douche in the past is to continue being one because others recognized your douche behavior? That's kinda a douche move to me. :)

Com'on, if we can change our perception of bo being the worst, then you can, oh never mind.
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))
09 Jan 15 UTC
I liked everything you said, zultar, and then...
No I will endeavour to stop being a douche, but I still think that others may not be so forgiving just off that one announcement :P

As for bo, well I said I would stop being a douche so nothing to say ;)
Bo was happy to hate on me but now it's not cool ;)

With ATC and JMO doing all the work around here, I think Zultar should man up and play a game. He should prove he's still got it.

Who Will Be Remembered?
Recent article on an interesting site: http://waitbutwhy.com/table/modern-era-will-universally-known-year-4015
Between that and our current "Greatest Person in History" tournamet, I'm really interested in the legacy of our era, and the people from it. So, who from our modern era (1700s - 2000s) do you think will still be remembered 2000 years from now? And what do you think our generation (if remembered) will be known for?

The Ins and Outs of Western Privilege

I think some of those examples are good, some flawed...but it's definitely an idea worth discussing and hashing out, so, discuss.

Diplomacy Air Force Unit
Wouldn't it be an interesting shakeup to add an air force unit to Diplomacy? It seems that it would add more realism to the game. Potentially, it could cost 2 build units and fly over any territory just like any other unit, but not occupy it. Therefore, you could have a fleet and an air unit in the same space. It wouldn't be able to take territory, only support other units. Additionally, it could support hold the territory it flies over, but not actually defend the territory.
