Pause error?
Two of my games just spontaneously went into pause without any of the players voting "pause". Is this happening to anyone else? Is there a bug?

Why is Obama loving the Gaylords.....
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-23076294

Why is he doing it? Maybe he is a batty-boy himself !!

Seriously? Its a historical significant event.

"The US Supreme Court has overturned a federal law that defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman only.

The decision means that legally-married gay men and women are entitled to claim the same federal benefits available to opposite-sex married couples." (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-23076294)

Every leader worth his salt should care about changes in laws in the country he or she governs and gay rights have been much discussed in the US for the last decade.

"batty-boy"? Are you trying to be offensive?

Or more realisticily: it is more public attention for Obama, he show himself as an including and caring individual, he is a politician, thats why he made the call.....

Ah, Thomas, you've made a crucial mistake. You assumed that Nigee was a rational human being worth listening to. In fact, he's just some pathetic British dude who thinks he's a whole lot funnier than he is.

Nigee, I look forward to your scathingly dry retort.

Thomas, you asked the right question with your first word: "seriously"?

The answer was "no"...he's not serious, he's Nigee. Attention-deprived :)

Close, I live in Seattle, which is actually gayer now. As for the British thing, it's really just you, but we can claim it's because I'm Irish.

ghug you're not Irish, they're a happy bunch, nice people. You claiming to be Irish is like a curse on all their houses, plus you're too much of a gaylord

I can't fucking believe you NB, as an Irish man living in England i can tell you, your days are numbered (and countable) Don't you know how much intelect you are showing by stereotyping??
NigeeBaby (100 D(G))
28 Jun 13 UTC
are you threatening me, what does that mean 'your days are numbered'.
My stereotype was that Irish are nice people, is that what you find particularly offensive. At least if anything happens to me now the police will know where to look ....
orathaic (1009 D(B))

Not a threat, the ability to number things is pretty common among the irish, we've had some very famous mathematicians, have you heard of William Rowan Hamilton?
NigeeBaby (100 D(G))

it sounds like a threat to me...... you're not very nice, I remember Irish people in London back-in-the-day pretending they had some sinister link to the IRA and using it to threaten and intimidate people, how sad are you

MAD MARX GUNBOAT CHALLENGE
MadMarx is, without argument, the best player on this site. He claims to be bored, though, with his regular rotation of classic Diplomacy games. So why not try something new? I challenge you, MM, to a single game of gunboat with some of the top gunboaters on this site. You can have final approval over pot size, phase length, and the other players in the game. What do you say?

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/snowden-washington-reaction-182004272.html "The freedom trail is not exactly China-Russia-Cuba-Venezuela" I have to agree...explain to me again how this guy's a symbol for freedom again (and again, do so WITHOUT saying "Well, the NSA was wrong--" YES. YES IT WAS. That does NOT mean this guy's good...really? Why pick those states, if he couldn't stand what the NSA was doing...they're not exactly Paradises of Government Transparency either...)

I want to be a league Substitute Please
Hi! I have been here at WebDiplomacy since the start of the year. Have played a lot of fun games and have been doing OK. Someone suggested that league games were a lot more strategic and the "done thing" was to sign up via the forums. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Kids teased in schools
So in Holland, as in all other countries, there are kids teased in schools. The government has gone through great lengths to "protect them", a dangerous development if you ask me.

interest in a 17 player world gunboat tourney?
I was thinking anywhere from 5-8 games depending on the interest. 5 pts. 24 hour turns.

If interested, please pm me, and I can set up a tournament. This seems to be the only way to get rid of metas....

I have two questions to ask.
1. If I don't like a player and don't want to pause the game per that person's request, can the Mod pauses the game for that person?

2. If a person does not want to work and I don't want to give the person's my spare changes, can the government tax me then give the other person some welfare?
