So I'm really busy and everything's going great..
So now I'm considering the option of delegating some work around the webdesign-stuff. I have no clue how this would work legally though, amongst other things..

question about cheating investigations
I am a player in a (now paused) game "live gunshot 412." In the middle of a turn the game was apparently paused by a moderator...message was posted that the game had been paused due to a cheating investigation. Do those playing in the game find out the results from the investigation? Is it the case that even if no cheating is found that the game will still be cancelled? Can I go to bed without fear of the game resuming and me being charged with an nmr? Thank you.

Iphone/Ipad issue?
I've had to make some recent moves using these devices, and notice that in builds, I thought I've entered a fleet, only to have an army appear. It's almost certainly user input stupidity, so am I missing something in the save/ready commands? Is there a default set to army if an order is entered but improperly saved? Help - the admirals are pissed off.

As is your right and privilege. And should anyone mistake this decision for a cowardly retreat in the presence of the enemy, well they'd be just plain wrong. It may at first glance appear that you have seen the quality of the opposition increase by an order of magnitude, turned tail and fled like a particularly yellow streak on a golden pair of sneakers. But upon closer inspection there are a host of alternative reasons for the apparently craven behaviour.

It's a joke. Counter Logic Gaming is an esports team, regularly fined by the company that produces League of Legends. It's a joke they get fined so much that it would happen even if someone else commits an infraction (such as Poaching players). It's less funny if I have to explain it...

Hey Valis, are you starting games at a set time regardless of how many people have signed up? Also, if a player signed up on this thread, are they definitely going to be placed in a game?
Valis2501 (2850 D(G))
27 Jun 15 UTC
1) Probably. It's important to have fairly hard deadlines, but it's not unusual or bad to extend it a bit to get that last person or two.

2) No. If every asks for anon and they want non-anon, if every asks for 48 or less but they want 72 hour phases, then that's an unfortunate conflict that will be resolved by taking them off the list. There's nothing wrong with that, we can't and won't all like to play the same kind of game. For these types of conflicts I will ask obvious dissenters if they'd be willing to join in on the majority game type, and if so obviously then they stay and play, and if not I'll take them off and shift the list

If there are non-zero modulo 7 amount of players that fit within compatible game-modes, those at the bottom will be apologized to and offered substitute status, although I don't hope to need any.

I hope that answers your question, let me know if you need more clarification or take umbrage at any facet.

United States wins Women's World Cup!
With a 5-2 win over reigning champions Japan, which included 4 goals in the first 16 minutes (3 of them by Carli Lloyd), the USWNT has won their 3rd World Cup (the record), and first since 1999.

Any thoughts? Presumably I'm not the only one who cares about this...
