EOG [LIVE] GUNBOAT " Fun Unlimited" Edition
gameID=86646

Congratulations to Chanakya. But Bob, what happened in the last move there? I had Munich covered, Bur could have saved Mar, and Portugal was not in danger? I don't understand. We were just one turn away from drawing.

I saw this wonderful news article on the BBC and I thought it was worth sharing - not only because it's so ridiculous it's comedic but also because it reminded me of our resident Swede, Vaft :)

Could people please stop signing up for games and then not showing up?
I swear, every time I'm Turkey or England, people don't show up and screw thegame. If I'm Austria, though, everybody's there with bells on and eager to move to Trieste and Galicia right away.

Marxism
Marxism is fundamentally a theory of history which should entail a commitment to social change; that is, a commitment to a socialist future in which the forces of production are not owned privately as they are in capitalist societies but under common ownership.

Chelski playing Barca
And Drogzilla scores. I effing hate Chelski, but I have nothing but admiration for Drogba. It helps that they're playing Barca, who I fucking detest since their several year long campaign to stoke Fabregas' discontent. Seriously, fuck them.

Companion Grammar Thread for Losers
Out of moderate respect for ulytau's authority, I am creating a companion thread for people who have been eliminated from his other thread to keep arguing about grammar, ulytau's thread, and how unjust the universe is for disliking how they (yes, *we*... sigh) write.

ulytau (541 D)
17 Apr 12 UTC
Ghug, one may use ergo at the beginning of a sentence just like you can use it after a semi-colon. If you disagree, prove me wrong in the next 60 seconds.
This is a silly idea. I suppose it is better than the thread in which the last person to post wins.
By the way, I notice that in the post above me ulytau was inconsistent in his use of "one" and "your". While arguably either is acceptable on its own, the inconsistency of using both forms in the same sentence surely must be grammatically incorrect.
There, I just zinged myself with a typo. That should have been "you", not "your".
Mujus (1495 D(B))

Hanged Man's use of "that" in the sentence above is an unclear pronoun reference. :-)

Also, standard usage is to put the period inside the quotations, although there are some exceptions.
Draugnar (0 DX)
18 Apr 12 UTC
Mujus, read the whole thread and you will se the period inside the quotes is an Americanism. The British do not do that.

Majus, you said ":-)." That is not a word, and even if it were a word, it would not constitute a complete sentence.
