Screenshots of diplomessages
So a while ago a couple of threads were started about this. Do we remember if this was considered cheating or not?

Userface update suggestion
Instead of the red X by the banned members usernames, perhaps you could use a hammer silhouette?

Player needed for public press and gunboat games
I haven't been able to get a hold of King Rishard so, if he doesn't show, I'm going to need a player or two to cover a public press and gunboat game. Let me know if anyone's interested.

Vive la France!
It is a rare day that I say anything good about France, but every now and then they do something worthy of note. The French government has unveiled its budget and, instead of slashing public spending, they're focusing on raising taxes on the the wealthy and businesses!

15 Day Phases
Yes, I know a number of games have been changed to 15 day phases; please don't email us about it. I've contacted kestas to see if he can simply revert the database; otherwise I'll fix them by hand tomorrow when I wake up. On the off chance kestas can't fix it, can you please post here with the gameID and the correct phase length. Thanks.

CD'ing
I've never missed a turn or CD'ed so I don't know what happens. When someone goes CD does the game still show up on their home page or does it disappear and they'd have to go find it again? I know we are forced to look at the defeated games until they are over.

Gingers
A while back in one of the forum posts I made what I thought a harmless joke when I repeated the (to me) ridiculous saying, "At least we're not gingers." When that put a damper on the conversation, I began to wonder if I had actually offended someone, if people thought I was serious. Then tonight I found an entry on the bbc news online that cleared things up for me.

I've never had a candidate for anything personally come to my door before
A candidate for State Representative (not a lofty position, but still significant) personally stopped by my house and every house in the neighborhood to try to convince us to vote for her. I've never seen an actual candidate for anything do that before. Is this kind of personal canvassing widespread, or is it just this candidate?

Plagiarism
No wonder today's young folk think they can just get away with stealing someone else's ideas, words, and efforts. Even at high levels of the public sphere, plagiarism persists. What an incorrigible individual.

The next 100 questions
I will provide a scenario to you all, and then ask you a question. You may all ask as many questions as you want to get to the answer to my question, but I'll only answer "yes," "no," or "it doesn't matter." If you already know the answer, please don't spoil it for the others. This is a group activity so read what others have asked and work together (in my experience, 2 people solve it much more quickly than 1, and a group of 4 usually gets it in 20-30 min. of so).

Did the Seahawks kick your sorry city-owned team's pathetic asses?
YES THEY DID!

And as an answer to your original riddle, a devout Packers fan came to see the game in Seattle, enjoyed today's pleasant weather, and then watched his team lose and just couldn't take it anymore.

lol, I desrved that. Everybody is bitching about the refs (I didn't watch the game, no ESPN), but imo if you let dude even TOUCH the ball in quadruple coverage, you fucked up enough without the refs being involved.

Apparently, I have to email and admin. But what are the admin email addresses?

IMHO, this whole pause thing seems to be a bad idea...
