Unions
Can anyone explain to me why I'm strongarmed into paying a bunch of highway robbers ~5% of my teaching salary? As far as I can tell, the only thing my union has ever done is prevent me from negotiating my own salary. Thanks for that.

Country Randomizer
I have been playing here for some time, and I'm a little upset with the way the randomizer works. I have started in 25 games and have not once been chosen to play as Turkey. I have been Turkey once when I joined midgame. I would like to play a game from start to finish as Turkey, but it has yet to happen. Can somebody explain how the algorithms work exactly and why I have yet to be Turkey yet have been Russia now 6 times.

Justin Bieber - Deport or Tax?
Should Justin Bieber be deported back to Canada for public admission of illegal drug use and other crimes or allowed to stay in the US so we can tax him to help with the deficit?

Putin's Dilemma
One of many liberal paradox's, I call this one Putin33's Dilemma:

USA must intervene in all humanitarian war disasters (CAR, Syria, S. Sudan, etc.) -- but if USA intervenes in war, the USA is committing war crimes in the act of war itself (Drones kill!).

Seriously...anyone notice that the Libtards around here love to clog up the forums with useless threads complaining about the forum content instead of actually creating the forum content they wish to see. I'm telling you...it's political sociopathy at play...so hell-bent on concept that Others will provide for their needs that they can't provide for themselves....

What's interesting is that in most cases, it is the financially underprivileged seeking financial hand-outs...the "haves" made to contribute to the "have nots"

In the case of the forum...the Libtards screaming for intellectual stimulation that they are unable to provide on their own....the Libtards (the have nots) seeking intellectual stimulation...

...tells you a little something about the Libtard, does it not....heh heh...

krellin (80 DX)
13 Feb 14 UTC
And I utterly reject the notion that I'm trolling this thread!!! I think my astute observation of Libtard behavior re: society vs. thread-bitching is quite indicative of a pattern of behavior which draws one to the conclusive conclusion that the Libtard mind is feeble at best...straining for that which it is incapable of providing for itself...

He's just trying to set it apart from his usual inconclusive conclusions. Failed, but nice try.

Draug did NOT get addicted.

France was an *idiot*. I brought two fleets down to help him hold the line and he instead decided to take my SCs. Then, when the line was held again, he attacks my fleet and pops it leaving one fewer defenders on the line that was our eventual downfall. Roka, you are a fool!

Is the incentive to not abandon a game effective? How about the incentive to take over an abandoned position? Discuss it in this thread.

Also, feel free to use this thread to name, shame, troll and nag those horrible people that abandon positions. I'll start. Kerzhakov is a dick (gameID=134319).
