What's the point in cheating?
I've wondered this about board games both board games and video/computer games. Please provide to me the behind-the-scenes into the psyche of the cheater.
-Does having more kills or WebDip points make you feel better about yourself?
-Is it really worth screwing over the other people involved in the game for you to get a meaningless win?
Please, help me get it.

Nuclear Proliferation
Why do we let a country like North Korea do nuclear tests? Isn't that dangerous? Isn't it even more dangerous because they might sell the knowledge they acquire to islamic nutcases? Discuss.

isnt it time we move forward and stop claiming that we have the right to decide whats best for our kids? or even saying "our" kids. as if parents own them. newsflash - those kids arent yours.

North Carolina Exempts Itself From Constitution
http://www.ncleg.net/Sessions/2013/Bills/House/HTML/H494v1.html

In short: "North Carolina is exempt from the Establishment Clause, and thus can declare a state-endorsed religion if desired." Thoughts?

Survey as to whether Agent K should be allowed to come back
I figure that this would be the most efficient way to collect the data.
Please vote yes, no, or if you have some specific conditions that you want to specify.

@ghug - Are you even in the missing A* Game 4?
ghug (5068 D(B))
07 Feb 13 UTC
Draug, no, but I'm in first place now, and it counts for nothing if the last game doesn't finish.
Draugnar (0 DX)
07 Feb 13 UTC
What are you talking about? Is there another game still going? We are only talking about splitting the 12 D between the 6 players who joined both tries to get the last game A* 4 game going. It wouldn't affect you at all if you aren't in the game. As you can neither gain nor lose points in the leagues from a game you aren't in. The only way it could affect you is if the second place was 2 D or less behind you and this game gave them the 2 D, but if they were in that final draw or got a win they'd still beat you anyhow.
Draugnar (0 DX)
07 Feb 13 UTC
I see the issue...

As of Game 3, you and LanGaidan are tid with 16 D and 28 centers each. A dead heat. I don't know how your game 4 turned out, but if you got more than 2 D, you would get the win if we drew. If you were eliminated, you would come in second with the draw. And if we play it out, how well he does or doesn't do could determine where you stand.
ghug (5068 D(B))
07 Feb 13 UTC
Oh, I didn't see that, I was just wondering if that game was ever going to happen, because it looked like it was never going to happen.
BornAgainGamer (100 D)
07 Feb 13 UTC
game 4b finished as a 4 way draw including ghug for 3 D and the league win unless LamGaidin calls foul and wants game 4a played to a conclusion so that he can overtake ghug.
BornAgainGamer (100 D)
07 Feb 13 UTC
Or even LanGaidin ...
ghug (5068 D(B))
07 Feb 13 UTC
Which I think should be done, personally. It feels cheap and empty otherwise.
LanGaidin (1509 D)
08 Feb 13 UTC
Im ok either way. Ghug had a great tourney. How many SC in that last game did you get ghug?
ghug (5068 D(B))
08 Feb 13 UTC
I think it was 16.
LanGaidin (1509 D)
08 Feb 13 UTC
That will be tough to top.
ghug (5068 D(B))
08 Feb 13 UTC
You just need a three-way.

Draugnar (0 DX)
08 Feb 13 UTC
No, he needs a three way with 16 SCs to tie or 17 to win. 15 SCs and he loses because the tie breaker on points is total SCs.
ghug (5068 D(B))
08 Feb 13 UTC
But my game 4 was a 4 way, a 3 way means more points for him.
Draugnar (0 DX)
08 Feb 13 UTC
If I am going to be forced to play this one, then I am going to metagame, either giving LG the win as best I can or eliminating him quickly so the rest of us can draw. Oh, and metagaming like that in the leagues is *not* against the rules.
Draugnar (0 DX)
08 Feb 13 UTC
Oh, I thought it was a 3 way. OK, so a 4 way with 16 ties, a 4 way with 17 or better wins.

What If Kestas Died?
What would happen to the site if Kestas died?
Would it erode away, it's unsolved bugs slowly making the game less enjoyable?
Or is there some emergency protocol that will let the other mods take power?
