Any predictions about Lada Gaga and the Superbowl?
Who wants to guess if she's going to go all Byonce and get political during the halftime show?

My guess: In the middle of her song, she'll start advocating for PPSC and announce an engagement to Krellin.

Heckling Feature Request
It's fun to observe games, but would be even more fun if there was a sideboard to heckle and commentate on games by people who aren't actually part of the game. This would be particularly interesting for those games among top players.

Iran announces it is abandoning the US dollar
http://theantimedia.org/iran-ditched-dollar-us-matters/

This could be the start of A) war with Iran (though they will come up with other excuses to sell it to the public) or B) a collapse in the value of the US dollar - which could result in many other countries abandoning it as a reserve currency (which is a threat to national security, hence A)

Was Jesus a Vampire?
I was curious, if Jesus was a vampire, like most scholars now assume; was he malkavian, ventrue, brujah, toreador, nosferatu or tremere?

Hey guys
I am redhouse, I used to play and debate here. I might play and debate again. But I have another question: Who knows a lot about C++? I may have some questions that seem trivial to those who know.

How does muting work?
I've never muted someone in a game before. Therefore, I am quite ignorant about how it works. Clearly if player A is muted by player B, B won't receive any messages from A while they're muted. What happens when B unmutes A? Do all the messages A sent to B while B had A muted suddenly appear, or are they lost forever?

New game Classic
Just went to a FTF tourney. Was fun. Want to play some more classic using the standard tourney rules (except of course 1 Day turns instead of 12 minutes).

Set it at 101d to filter for more reliable players. If that's too steep but you like the rest, chime in here, and I will make a new one with lower bet.

"Let's have a lot of illegal immigrants vote."

That's not what's happening. The illegal immigrants are voting spontaneously, and the Democrat-controlled States decide not to prosecute them.

"Common sense says" = "I have no idea but I'll make shit up anyway"

And of course this spontaneous voting is magically confined to solid blue states, because there are no prosecutions anywhere else, either.

Here's some fun math. If the difference between Clinton's votes and Trump's votes were because of illegal votes, and all those votes were contained in California, and all those votes were invalidated and the voters prosecuted CLINTON WOULD STILL WIN CALIFORNIA

If the National Popular Vote bill (http://www.nationalpopularvote.com/) had passed, Clinton would have "won" the electoral college in a landslide, taking Ohio, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Florida, who have all agreed to this approach, even though the election would have gone against each of those state's individual choices.

So stop complaining about Trump winning despite losing the popular vote because that's how the system works. Make it change by changing the law - ask your rep in your state to do this.

It's a well known fact that millions of illegal aliens voted illegally. Thank god we finally have a President who is going to go after the perpetrators of this attack on our election system.

Notice: The majority of people upset about an investigation into illegal voting are Democrats.

Why?

They know that their gimmick is going to be gone soon. Soon millions of dead people, illegal aliens, and non-citizens will be prevented from voting and their remaining enclaves along the left-coast and the North-East will crumble.

Yay! a multi-million dollar project that the US tax payers will pay for "at first" when we are trillions in debt. Sounds like an excellent plan. I remember when my mom used to use our welfare checks for her nails and hair. I agreed with that blatant irresponsible waste of money as well.

According to Trump, he's nominated at least two of these illegal voters:

But only Democrats commit vote fraud and not Republicans.

Here's my two cents. I'd just like to mention I'm fiscally conservative and socially liberal ahead of time before I get called a Democrat for bashing Trump.

@OP & ND: Federal judges continue to throw out voter ID laws because the evidence to support claims that voter fraud is rampant does not exist. You can find very few isolated instances, usually in local elections, where someone has bought votes from legal citizens in a small town or county. If you can find that cold hard evidence that eludes everyone else that millions of illegals vote in national elections Leon and ND, you two would be the first.

The only reason this is still an issue is because Trump's pride is hurt. He cannot stand the fact that more people voted for Hillary. She was a terrible candidate, and she still got more votes.

It kills him deep down inside. He thought that the popular vote was the best way to elect a President, until he won without the popular vote. He then claimed it was "genius" a day after he said that he wouldn't change his mind because he won by Electoral votes alone. Then made baseless accusations of three million illegals voting. Then, he nearly lost the popular vote by three million, so he changed the estimate to three to five million.

He has constantly uses baseless dribble to justify whatever fantasy he and his followers want to believe. He won, and he still can't let this petty shit go. Good luck on the witch hunt.
