I am routinely shocked...
... at how frequently I find myself in conversations with people twenty or more years' my senior, only to sadly learn that they still believe completely in silly concepts such as good and evil or better and worse.

Does this bother anybody else like it does me?

Highly rated world game
It has been awhile since I've been a part of a world map game where the competition was of the highest caliber, and that game was marred by all kinds of interference. I'd like to see another one given a go! Who's interested?

We paused Game 109378, and now we can't seem to unpause it. Everyone reports the same thing: they click on Unpaude, but the button stays in the Vote column. Could we have a Mod unpause the game, or are we doing something wrong?

Live Diplomacy
How difficult would it be to make a real-time game similar to diplomacy? Where your troops move slowly to their objectives over the course of a day or so, and with more flexibility of orders (co-ordinates rather than provinces) etc?

Nice one krellin... that is a ridiculous comment ;)
This thread feels like preparation for a future in which 'likes' and '+1s' et al. are used as currency to barter for goods and services. And like modern times, the harder it is to get +1s, the rarer and thus more valuable they'll be.

I wonder what the current 'exchange rate' would be between here and say Facebook.

Haggis (noun)
Originally a cursed spawn of both Ungoliant and the Great Fearsome Sheep's Bladder of Gaul, the wild haggis beast roamed all across Europe until finally driven out of its last bastion in mainland Europe from France by Charlemagne. After that herds of wild haggis were such a problem in Britain that King Arthur had to get Merlin to lift the curse from them. The haggis as we now know it was first hunted and claimed to be edible by the Scottish knight Sir Demoman the One-Eyed, a tradition that continues to this day in Scotland, yet elsewhere for some strange reason people cringe at the thought.

Nothing existed until about 6000 years, then God invented himself.
Then he made the Universe.and the Earth. You have to question why he invented certain shit like quick sand, black holes and Sunny Delight.
For shits and giggles he made humans..... they turned out to be great, especially women with nice breasts and holes in all the right places.
He stuck strange fossils in rocks to confuse smart arses in the future.
He invented geology and physics and astronomy and never realised that might back and bite his bum at some stage.
Then he had a son who came down to Earth and upset the locals so they got real cross with him. He didn't last long but promised he'd pop back and save 200,000 people, they were in raptures, then he fucked off and left outstanding bills.
Because he knew they would be persecuted God gave black guys bigger willies and gay guys nice bums, he did fuck all for gingers though.
Some people think that if he hadn't been so fucking lazy on the Sunday he might have done some snagging and fixed all the imperfections, like wasps, whitebait and pilates.
The biggest faux pas by far must have been pretending his son Jesus was a white Jew rather than a black Arab, if only he could have known what trouble his little joke would cause going forward, if he was on Webdip he would be have been told in no uncertain terms "God, you're not funny"
And that's a fact.....

^I agree, it's good KA is back after a long time of absence. In general, it's good when members of the site who contributed to this forum and to the games we play on it who leave for a while ultimately decide to come back. I'd be really interested in reading more from him and I'm curious to hear how far the symphony he was writing has advanced, because that sounded like a very exciting project!

You know, I was thinking the other day... Webdip won't have truly 'made it' in the nerd community until someone makes a reference to it on Big Bang Theory, preferably Sheldon, referencing Barry Kripke's inability to 'sowo'.

Anybody have any influence with Chuck Lorre or Bill Prady?

Quite the opposite, really. Big Bang Theory really shouldn't be accepted in the nerd community until it makes a Diplomacy reference.
