Site issue: Username wrong
My username should be "jmo13875" but for some reason when I logged in today it's displaying as "Jamiet99uk".

Is this a bug?

my country's fun
"Twelve NGOs received a letter from the Interior Ministry in February asking them to declare donations made to their refugee work so the equivalent figure can be deducted from federal funding given to the charities."

Austria if anyone's wondering

and I feel the NGO's anger is righteous here.

Your country is mostly rational though. I'd live in Austria in a heartbeat. If you ever want to swap citizenship, let me know.

Haha that's not just greedy, it's dumb because it will work once and then no one donates anymore because the net effect is you're donating to the state anyway.
I confess I was a little surprised to see this from a grand coaltion government. But upon reflection, if the FPÖ or BZÖ had been in the coalition, the first few paragraphs might well have run something like this:

"Twelve NGOs received a letter from the Interior Ministry in February telling them that the amount of donations made to their refugee work does not matter because every single euro of federal funding to the charities will be deducted anyway.

"In the letter, the Ministry stated: 'The level of donations made to support refugee work since September 4th 2015 and how much has already been used for this purpose so far are both of absolutely no consequence to us.'

"The letter went on to explain that, since all state funding will be removed, this information would not be needed for any calculations whatsoever."

well, of course you can always say "it could be worse" (that actually is the official austrian response to anything, i believe), but it could also be better, right?
I may have a strain of Austrian somewhere in my genetic stream (I am a fan of "it could always be worse" when things are doing badly), but my main point was mostly to express my surprise at this position being taken by a centrist government -- and then trying to suggest why I perhaps shouldn't have been surprised.

for european standards, this isn't a centrist government anymore.

Microsoft's AI experiment
Microsoft had a research experiment called "Tay" which was a chat-robot driven by Artificial intelligence. The experiment got cancelled because internet trolls learned how to teach it to churn out racist and other socially unacceptable text. Microsoft has cancelled "Tay" but said that they will soon be coming out with version two of the project...

A/T alliances where Austria does not get boned
Please post examples of success -- I know theoretically it should work, but when I am Austria I always get stabbed, and when I am Turkey I always find the knife irresistible at some point. I want this alliance to succeed, but there always seem to be reasons to end it early.

Enlighten me with your superior tactics and strategies please!

Oz in gameID=171427 is being replaced due to the player being banned. Please note that this is a special rules roleplaying thread. To see the original rules, see viewthread=1325508 . Know that this game takes dedication, as it will quite possibly last many more months, and there are more than 70 pages of message archives.

If you are interested, please PM me.

Site issue: Bad username displaying
Though my username appears correctly in all of my games, at the top of the page it now reads, "Welcome, jmo75917" instead of "Welcome, yoak." I can log in normally with my real username and password. This isn't really causing a problem, but seems that it should be reported.
