Okay guys here is the game:

gameID=93465

Also in case you didn't know you can post "gameID=number" or "threadID=number" alone in the forum and it will be a link either to a thread or a game. You don't have to post the whole URL, but if you do you'll notice that the gameID part is a link.

For future reference!

Okay so it's a low-bet, 36 hour WTA classic. Nice and chill. Looks like these new(ish) players would like to play:

TheDominator97
Fortress Door
H.H
Draugnar (jk jk)

So that's four plus me which is five. It will be easy enough to grab a few more people.

The password is "default"

What do you call a man with no arms and legs lying in a pile of leaves

Russell

What do you call a woman with one leg

Ilene

What do you call a Japanese woman with only one leg

Irene



Okay, going off to sit in a corner and deal quietly with the waves of guilt feelings.

Dude it gets way worse than these lame name/handicap puns.

Waaaaaay worse. I won't go there though because this thread is argument free. If an argument starts, I exit.

One question: Which game on WebDiplomacy went on the longest? (i.e. a Classic game ending in 1928, an Ancient Med game ending in 30, a World Diplomacy game ending in 2026)?

Ahhh good question djakarta. This has been asked before, and although I don't have a link, I believe there have been one or two games to make it into the WWII era. I don't know if 1950 has been passed before.

Quite a few have ended in the 1925 range though. That is still pretty rare however. I think the large majority of games end before 1915.

its draug-proof filter, you see. i just hide the password amongst the text of my post.

that's another lesson for the new players - you guys are the only ones that read my posts the whole way through (assuming you do anyway) - the veteran players just read my first and last sentence and skim for things that look unconventional to criticize. :P

Alright the game has begun. Fun fun fun.

However this thread is still open. Here is an interesting fact:

Did you know the US Surgeon General (yes, that lame-o who spoils all your booze and smoking fun with his warnings), is obese?

Ah yes, I was hoping I wouldn't have to discuss it:

A lot of people think the other people on this site are dick-wads. But, if you're not new to the internet, you knew that a priori.

Okay, enough of that.

BH Liddell Hart
Anyone read him? His Strategy is a very good read and makes a lot of sense. I know people like Mearsheimer loathe him, but I think he has a lot to say, especially about having limited objectives, that can inform today's defense policies. I'd put him right up there with Jomini's Summary of the Art of War.

Why is King James' God So "Familiar" When He's...Not?
As I've said, I'm reading my way through the KJ Bible (KJ because you can't fully hope to ever be a Man of Letters like I hope to be someday without reading the Bible, like it or not, and the KJ version has had the biggest impact on English Literature) and it struck me partway through "Exodus"--OT, almighty, intimidating God speaks using "thou," but that'd be the INFORMAL version grammatically in James'/Shakespeare's day...but the OT God is anything BUT familiar and informal...?

Leaving that "God Particle" title alone--and if anyone brings God into THIS thread...shame on you, we have a debate coming up, for once, let's have a discussion sans the rhetoric, eh?--can any of our brilliant scientists here explain this? I've heard of it, and apparently it's important, but...what's it all mean, this particle...why would it hep give proof of...things? (Note my very technical jargon there.) ;)

Which subjects are sacred?
Zmaj raised an interesting point. We can slander and insult and wrestle and mock politics and religion without end, but as soon as someone starts in on personal histories and former cheating cases, it becomes very hush hush and people start tiptoeing around. Not that I disagree necessarily, but what makes personal history and former cheating cases et al. more taboo than politics and religion, the latter of which is supposedly deeply personal?
