Scottish MP on trial for lying
Here's a fascinating case. A Member of Parliament actually being taken to court for lying - and in his defence, admitting that he lied, but arguing that's just something politicians do, so he shouldn't be held to account for it.

B.O.G. Memorial Game
Hilariously B.O.G. received the banhammer today. I vote we have a game in to celebrate his passing / mourn his loss / thank the Mods for purging him from our midsts.

Like Valis, I'm not posting as much as I'd like, but you can follow my coverage on Twitter at @WindyCityWeasel or with the hashtag #CheeseAndDip . Good times so far and fun to meet Valis last night and plot our takeover of the hobby. :-)

I forgot to mention it because it's so obvious in person, but the venue at Killington is extremely nice and beautiful this time of year, and they make sure to hook us up with a fun environment and being at a gaming conference is always a little extra fun as you get to see people play other games and come by and watch and such

Valis2501 (2850 D(G))
07 Nov 15 UTC
Board top with 10 R (7T, 7E, 6F, 4I) for second round. Should have pushed for the solo but I had some really good alliances and I was only at 10, I promised T in my Jugg not to get any more dots until he caught up so when he said he was OK with a current draw I took it.

Round 3 starting soon! #cheeseanddip #passingOutInHotelLobbies
Valis2501 (2850 D(G))
08 Nov 15 UTC
All done! 3rd as Germany but was solo or not win the tourney and so didn't mind drawing. FGI vs RT.

Again, found the alliance player and just stuck with them. Let my French ally stay ahead of me for pure loyalty and it worked out pretty well.

Overall a decent showing, much better than my Tempest obviously. Probably not enough to get me in the top seven, probably in the top 10(of 28)? Somewhere around there.

Official results are out! Our very own webdippers took 1st and 7th on top board. I'll let you guess which was Jim and which was myself ;)

I got a monkey from a barrel of monkeys in condemnation of being an England who failed to surpass Eric Grinnel and forcing the TD to give him best England. I also got a little globe thingy for being an awesome new person in the hobby (MA took home at least three of those!) which was very generous.

Of course wonderful time and a big thanks to Robert rousse and Dave Maletsky for putting on a great tournament! There's a prize for "came from farthest away" so no excuses not to attend next year!

Shout outs to DaddyO, thecaptain_1234, RLH, and Dariusz for providing me transportation, love you guys.

Why the college football Playoff committee should be fired
Biggest cause for concern I have in year 2 of this so called "system" is that for the first 4 weeks of these people sitting down to rank everyone they come up with even worse logic than the coaches and AP polls.
I realize you cant get everything right all the time, but this years first ranking feels more like a house of cards just begging to be knocked down.
