Just a misunderstood dictator
Kadhafi is truly a moral giant, vilified by the west only because of his anti-west policies! Look he wants to spare his people from western control!

bleble Germany should draw already...
It's been 3 years, and still Germany will not accept offers for a cease-fire in this long war. All the other sovereign nations have ratified the pledge and are supporting each other. When will Germany accept that he cannot break the combined will of Europe? gameID=63769

This Time On Philosophy Weekly--Grouped Stars or Dividing Stripes: Nationalism vs. Global
Now, this one I DEFINITELY want, if possible, folks from other nations outside the US to contribute to, as I'd be keen to hear what someone might have to say who actually IS part of a greater-than-a-nation-union, such as the EU, but it's a pretty simple question:
Politically AND Ideologically, which is preferable--Nationalism or Globalization/Unions, and which do you believe is the "future" politically?

@ Triumvir, right, as soon as the game gets going, TA's and students should begin contacting each other immediately.

@ Tru Ninja thank you very much for doing that and for the wise advice! You have been extremely helpful in getting this SoW up and running.

@ MM Don't worry about it Marx. Its no big deal that the game starts later. I do however wish Leif would get back to me and tell me that he got my message about being put into game 1. Regardless, if he doesn't join by Wednesday evening, I'm contacting vordemu and giving him the password. Don't worry though, you're not messing anything up

Yikes! Close call. I got bumped up to game 1 and PM'd the password (11:05 AM yesterday), PM'd by MM to hold off to join (3:57PM yesterday), then get a 24 heads up starting at 4:54 PM yesterday that I may be dropped from game 1. I checked at 4:10 yesterday and decided not to join game 1 yet on account of MM. And yesterday was the 4th of July!!

I don't know if it's sorted out yet, since NinjaIntervention has alreadt joined, and Riphen has dropped out to hold for MM, but to be on the safe side, I've joined up. Thanks MM for asking goldfinger not to drop me. Thanks Riphen for dropping in and out as needed. Since I can only sign on every 12hrs or so at best, I couldn't justify the risk of being left out to help hold the game for MM.

Looking forward to it and I'm not upset about anything, just wanted to point out the crazy timetable. Thanks for letting me be a student.

Okay...
I see that game 2 is ready and just waiting for me to join. Does anyone have issues with me joining in at the last minute so that I don't require someone to sub for me? Alternatively, I can join now, play the first phase, and ask for a pause. I don't mind either way.

Thanks for putting this together.
acmac10 (120 D(B))

If you sign up, we'll still have to get the other person who hasn't signed up....I'd rather get the game going then pause, so we at least don't have to worry about getting the game started.
Cachimbo, its fine that you join next week, don't worry about it. That game is still waiting for scmoo to join. What days exactly will you be gone?
Actually you know what, its better that it get started now and then pause, so at least he TA's and students can start talking to each other. I just want to get these two games jump started ASAP. Once the ball is rolling, things should be fine
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
06 Jul 11 UTC
If you are one of my students, please me sure to PM me when your game starts so I can help you out.
Right. I believe scmoo said he'll be back on the 7th, and I do hope that game 1 will start this evvening

I agree with ab, can TAs be PMd when the game they are helping with starts?

So Emperor are you joining or not. I thought I was to be the last one to join and we could get this started.
EmperorMaximus (551 D)
06 Jul 11 UTC
No, I'm not joining, I'll be gone for two weeks so I would slow the game down too much =(
Riphen (198 D)
06 Jul 11 UTC
So now I guess vordemu is taking his spot?
MadMarx (36299 D(G))
06 Jul 11 UTC
Suppose that's up to goldfinger, who takes EMax's place... but, Riphen, it's likely okay for you to join now, I think we're all set except getting the last person in, and once that last person is figured out, we'll likely want to get started immediately...
Riphen (198 D)
06 Jul 11 UTC
I already joined I just wanted to be last. <( '-' <)
MadMarx (36299 D(G))

Yeah, I like joining and immediately seeing which great power I get too...
BenGuin (248 D)

well, at least Vordemu, who is sub for game 2 can join!
Why doesn't BenGuin take the spot?

Sorry, just a little confused, what's the hold up in game 1?
Riphen (198 D)

Emperor left waiting for goldfinger to confirm that Vordemu is the sub. He said it before but not sure if that is what he wants. He is the dean.

Your 2012 Presidential Pick
I know it is a little early, but I am curious. If the American presidential election were tomorrow, who would you vote for and why? You can pick Republicans who have not announced their candidacy yet. You can also pick a Democrat that you would pick over Obama.

Why are there so few quality World Dip games here?
I've played hundreds of games, and on this site my win\draw ratio is quite strong, as it generally tends to be. I consider myself to be a strong player, not an expert, but quite skilled.

However, I am noticing that in the World Dip variant, the talent pool seems to be rather shallow...why is this?

PPSC vs. WTA
What are your thoughts? After a couple of couple of games under my belt I'm beginning to grow quite irritated at PPSC. It always seems to dwindle off into one less well doing player helping another better doing player to a solo for a fair share of points. More under the cut.

After the private university furore, Dawkins is in trouble again
Apparently one of our elders and betters has made a somewhat questionable analogy between a man chewing gum and the unwelcomed propositioning of a woman at an atheist conference. I am sure that this was eminantly logical but I am just struggling to see how!
