Okay, so recently I have been watching the show Person of Interest (It's on CBS) and I have to tell you, it is amazing. The characters are fleshed out, it has an amazing mythology and it shows an amazing spin on our age of surveillance. To me, it may be the best show on TV right now. If you;ve seen it, do you agree? And regardless, what do you think is the best show on TV right now?
Rick and Morty, hands down. Hilarious, smart, engaging, believable characters, entertaining and original plots (with some exceptions that function more as parodying homages to great scifi), it's just great.
Top 8 (in no particular order): Fargo, True Detectives, Mozart in the Jungle, Drunk History, House of Cards, Game of Thrones, American Horror Story, QI.
Top 8 Animated (no particular order): Archer, Rick and Morty, South Park, Chozen, Family Guy, American Guy, Venture Brothers & my wife really likes Bobs Burgers (I'm not a fan though)
How....how is Game of Thrones not listed more often than twice? And why haven't I seen anyone mention Orange is the New Black?
I mean, ya'll got some good shows up there (Fargo and Sherlock I love. Not Gotham though. The Batman fan in me is raging about how they develop him) but I feel like those two are titans right now.
Attack on titan is great... It would probably be hard to find these on tv but parasyte the maxim, tokyo ghoul, and aldnoah zero are all very good anime that are ongoing. I'd recommend watching any of them. There are also ones like mirai nikki code geass and death note which are really popular though not ongoing.
Poll: What do you do when you learn a stab is coming?
So through your system of spies and side alliances and general instinctiveness you get a pretty good indication that your ally is about to stab you. What go-to strategy do you generally like to employ?

Recent article on an interesting site: http://waitbutwhy.com/table/modern-era-will-universally-known-year-4015 Between that and our current "Greatest Person in History" tournamet, I'm really interested in the legacy of our era, and the people from it. So, who from our modern era (1700s - 2000s) do you think will still be remembered 2000 years from now? And what do you think our generation (if remembered) will be known for?
I'll be hosting the Boroughs (now a part of the Nor'Easter Circuit--Yay!) again in Marlborough, Mass. I will also be hosting the 2nd webDip F2F at the same time. We need a new date for the tournament, though. Sometime between Aug-Oct. What are people's thoughts?

Hey all, So as you may have heard there's a new Diplomacy Zine coming out, The Velvet Glove (http://thevelvetglovecont.wix.com/the-velvet-glove). I'm the Hobby Info Editor and am looking for information on tournaments, online resources etc. Obviously, I have a pretty good idea what's going on this site, but if you know of something happening and you want to be sure it makes it into the first issue, please email me at [email protected]. Please put "TVG" in the subject line.
Wouldn't it be an interesting shakeup to add an air force unit to Diplomacy? It seems that it would add more realism to the game. Potentially, it could cost 2 build units and fly over any territory just like any other unit, but not occupy it. Therefore, you could have a fleet and an air unit in the same space. It wouldn't be able to take territory, only support other units. Additionally, it could support hold the territory it flies over, but not actually defend the territory.
New World Order is a wild diplomacy ride. The GM has about 30 players but needs a few more to start. Here's the announcement at Redscape: http://www.redscape.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=2801
To join, you can PM Sendric at VDip or Redscape (he is not a member here) or PM me with an email address & I'll pass it on.
The North Sea has 11 territories surrounding it, the most of any. The maximum battle to take it would be 7 strength vs 5 strength. Anyone have a huge battle waged over North Sea?
