More noob questions
Just curious, when I'm at the "Home" page, some of the games I'm in have stars next to them like the stars that show up in threads you have posted in. What are these stars symbolizing?

The "Oh, Come On, It Wasn't THAT Bad," Screen and Stage Countdown
We've all seen it ...that disease known only as "fanboyitis" (or, since I suppose our diseases have to be politically correct nowadays, it's sister disease that's toally equal and in no way lesser than fanboyitis, fangirlitis.) A movie, play, book, or or show comes out- and it's great. The sequels come out- "Oh my God, those evil demons ruined EVERYTHING! EVERYTHING!!!" So sound off on The "Oh, Come On, It Wasn't THAT Bad" books, shows, films, and, yes, plays.

Halp!, it won't let me in!
So I'm trying to join a game a friend of mine started up and it's password protected so just us pals can play together, but it won't let me join. If I type in the password and hit enter it just reloads the same screen, if I type it in and click on join it says I have the wrong password. HALP!

CD takeovers
It seems there is nothing to stop someone CD-ing in a game, and then returning to the game by taking over a DIFFERENT country which is in CD.

It doesn't consume energy or provide energy, yet it has mechanical movement...Interesting.
realpauldec (690 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
It's also made of man-made materials yet could in a philosophical sense mean it's made of plastic (being that plastic comes from silicon and all that other crap we put in it).
12) Does it weigh more or less than 10 pounds?
sqrg (304 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
12) less

with mechanical movement things like gears, swivels, hinges, chains, etc are included right? I mean that what i think it means.
realpauldec (690 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Yeah, yea of course. You just don't find many things these days that don't consume energy while doing those things.
sqrg (304 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
yeah, just for a moment i figured 'mechanical' might mean that is has an internal engine or something like that. But that would ofcourse consume energy. I'll say: it has moving parts ;)
realpauldec (690 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Indeed. Many people use one, but not a common household object? That strikes me as kind of odd.
realpauldec (690 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
13) Is it primarily used for entertainment? (I differentiate this with decorative because decorative implies it has no practical purpose other than looking attractive where something could be used for entertainment as functional part of that entertainment).
redcrane (1045 D)

13) is it made to directly benefit humans?
sqrg (304 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
If you need a certain 'common household object' you should be able to go into (almost) anyones home and probably find it. That is not the case with what i have in mind. But i said many people have one to clarify that it's not that uncommon either :P
Nice your getting all kinds of hints for free!
sqrg (304 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
13) It's not primarily for entertainment. But some people use it for their leasure activities.
14) Yes

14) is it made to directly benefit humans? from redcrane

15) Is it made of steel?
redcrane (1045 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
can we go with metal*, rpd (is that alright as a shortening of your name)?
realpauldec (690 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
I asked steel for a reason, you can generally assume that it is either metal or plastic because it is inanimate and made of man-made materials. Steel was more specific because it knocks off a few important possibilities.
sqrg (304 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
15) There can be (some) steel used to make it. Not primarily.
