Writing a book
Has anyone here written a book? Once I finish another project I am working on, I am mulling over writing a biography of a secondary figure from the early American Republic. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with publishing a manuscript before.

The death of one of the greatest boxers who ever lived, and a huge part of the sports and cultural scene of the 1970s...may the epic Ali/Fraizer fights live on forever, and Joe be forever Smokin' Hot. RIP

Rule question! Retreat edition!
Just looking for a quick reminder (I'm still working the rust out of my long absence). If Austria's Vienna Army supports its Army in Bohemia to Tyrolia and Italy moves its Tyrolia army to Bohemia, can an Austrian Army dislodged from Silesia retreat to Bohemia?

Responsibilities:
Use common sense and respect other players.
Help the mods & admins keep our server fun.
Don't abuse the software to gain an edge in online games that isn't possible in a real-life.
Keep up to date with the rules and FAQ to make things easier for us.
Protect your account with a strong password and a secure account e-mail address.

You're breaking key responsibilities as a member of this site.

9. Follow common sense
The rules above are mainly ones which might not be obvious; just because a specific rule isn't given here doesn't mean moderators can't stop people ruining the server for others!


This definitely applies to you.

@YJ - So if someone murders your family, you believe it gives you the right to murder theirs? You *are* breaking the rules. You may not have broken them first, but you are breaking them nonetheless.

*yawn* Sarg is gonna send a line-by-line explanation of how each of these is violated. Really, don't you think the mods have better things to do?
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))
07 Nov 11 UTC
Nonsense... anybody who is in that game and reading this thread is doing so in violation, so anything I say about it doesn't apply.... unless, of course, I really AM Russia.

Why are you being a jackass? It's not even funny - no one is laughing but you and I have explained to you here and in PM why your actions are unfair and wrong. Can't you be reasonable?

"so anything I say about it doesn't apply"

Talking about an ongoing anonymous game is against the accepted rules, whether you are in the game or not.
Draugnar (0 DX)
07 Nov 11 UTC
So, your argument is if you aren't russia, you aren't breaking the rules. That is patently false. One of the core rules is not to discuss ongoing games in the forum and especially not ongoing gunboats. Player or not, your fucking around with the game through these discussions and that is against the rules. And if you *are* Russia, then you are breaking them even further.

Damn, Sarg, you Ninja'd me that time.

Is it? I actually didn't know that (and skeptical, btw)... I don't see why it should be as long as I don't know who's in it... and as far as funny... I'm like Andy Kaufman in this mother, I don't care what you think as long as I think it's funny.
Draugnar (0 DX)
07 Nov 11 UTC
Well, it is against the rules. Be as skeptical as you like. Once a mod gets on and tells you to STFU, maybe you'll come around. But somehow I doubt it.
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))

Don't be mad cuz I'm table-talking my way to the win.

I'm hanging out and watching this game to the end because it's interesting. I doubt you are Russia, but you are breaking the rules either way and I'm sure you are going to get a dressing down along with Cockney and the rest of the particiopants who posted here.
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))
07 Nov 11 UTC
Yes, Draug, I'm sure ALL of the people who discuss their own anon gunboat will get their just desserts :P

A couple of questions about American courts.
In the UK, when a jury has a verdict the judge asks them what the verdict is and they say it out loud. In the 'States, once a jury reaches a verdict, they write it down on a piece of paper and hand it to the judge, He or she reads it and then hands it back and someone in the jury reads it out.

Why do they hand it to the judge first? What does this achieve?

The Biggest Threat To Liberty is _____ (?)
I say a Lack of Education:
It was with more education we got out of the Stone Ages and into the Greco-Roman era...and then when education made a comeback, we had the Renaissance...and then the Englightenment...and then Civil Rights/Suffrage movements...cured diseases, more production...but currently my home state is 48th in education and the West is most of my doctors ARE from India...what's your take? Biggest threat is...what?

Probably not new game play idea, maybe for tourneys
Is there a tourney here that we could do a Triple vs Triple deal with a rogue Italy? I think if we have enough players that would be a fun thing to do. I think best would be 7 players or 49. Could be fun. Let me know if anyone is interested or has a way to make it a better idea.
