Serious question concerning Ghost Ratings and games...
If seven players wanted to play a game and not have it counted for GR purposes, could that be accommodated? A bit like choosing WTA or PPSC, we would have a button for GR // non-GR.

Why the kids?
In soccer matches, when the teams line up and the National Anthems are played, why are there little kids standing in front of them (in this World Cup little African kids) awkwardly - these large men with their hands on the shoulders of these scrawny little kids?

I dreamed about diplomacy last night
I dreamed that my ally in this game I am actually playing in real life stabbed me, right before we were supposed to draw with everyone else.

Support - have I been playing wrong all these years???
Hey - I am confused on an issue of supporting.
Example: DEN-s-KIE, BAL.Sea-s-DEN and NS-DEN
...why is the support at DEN cut to KIE?
I was under the impression that this situation would result in KIE being supported and that if KIE was being attacked by a unit with another supporting it into KIE that it would be a stand-off. Somehow I have managed to survive a lot of situations despite this appearing to be the case...Have I really got this wrong?

Sitter needed for 2 league games.
I will be in need of a sitter for my league games for two weeks in July. I'll be vacationing at a lake house from July 10 through July 17 with no internet access, then will be on retreat from July 23 through August 1, again with no internet access. Please let me know if you are able to fill in. The links to the games are below, and a third one will be starting shortly. I'll email my password out to whoever can commit to both. Thanks in advance for your help!!

This Time On Philosophy Weekly: But You Don't Really Care For Music (Do You?)
Plato certainly didn't seem to have a problem banning a good deal of music (including whole styles and instruments) in his ideal Republic...however, Kant and Nietzsche both agreed (a RARITY) on the importance of music, Nietzsche going so far as to infamously claim "Without music, life would be a mistake." (And to prove I'm a Nietzsche dork- my favorite composition of his.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yoFL6C2Rjw&feature=related How important IS music? Which kinds? To whom?

Possibly the Worst Argument Against Evolution and Worst Use of Peanut Butter EVER!
I hate to open the can of worms twice ina day (I've already done my "This Week in Philosophy" bit...) but this isn't a can of worms, folks.

It's a can of peanut butter- and apparently, it totally can be used to disprove and and all arguments for evolution...yep...screw Darwin and screw priests, folks- the answer was with peanut butter all along! :O http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZFG5PKw504&feature=related

@Dunecat: you have not yet explained why it matters that Turkey has not admitted that something happened 95 years ago. Now that you have raised the issue of reparations I am curious as to whether you support other prospective members doing the same for their transgressions (perhaps Iceland for fucking up banking, Serbia for genocide against Muslims). How far back should this go? Should it apply to existing members (has France apologised for Napoleon yet?)?
Dunecat (5899 D)
07 Jul 10 UTC
Haha, I don't know if reparations are the solution, but if you want to talk about reparations, I'm totally down.

Killing Muslims was bad for sure, and Milosevic rotted in the Hague for it, but Serbia never really paid the price for starting WWI by assassinating Ferdinand. Then, France could pay reparations for causing World War II with the obscene Treaty of Versailles and that bastard Clemenceau, and the Catholic Church could pay reparations for the Inquisition. Care to help me write a more comprehensive list? Let's do it. There are lots of actions to revile!

Dear President Eden,

Read Sam Harris. I linked you to one of his books. It will provide you a better understanding of religion than you currently have.

>I'm asking why a token acknowledgment is even being required if, as we know, it's worthless. Why even bother? What purpose does it serve?

Do I require a token apology? No. I require a legit apology. If they won't offer a legit apology, one that's heartfelt from the Turks themselves, then I don't want them in the EU.

>Answer: nothing. Turkey, now, did not do shit to the Armenians. Turkey 100ish years ago did, and Turkey 100ish years ago, were it here today, ought be held accountable. But Turkey now shouldn't be compelled to do anything.

Actually, by denying the Armenian genocide, the Turkey of today insults the Armenia of today. That's what it's all about, after all. You certainly can't re-animate all the dead Armenians and give them their lives back.

>i'm so glad you can refer me to amazon, perhaps you have read some good arguements there. I would question how well you understood them if you can't actually tell me anything about them.

I mean, what is there to say? I can't do justice to his arguments. I want him to speak for himself. I just love the fact that you think you are off the hook intellectually because you haven't read it.

>Still i will take it you didn't add anything other than a claim that you know thigns we don't know, and we can 'go look them up'/'buy the book' if we wish. Thanks for playing.

Who the fuck are you? You're a nutjob for looking to webdiplomacy.net to discuss something important. I didn't start this topic, I'm just trying to end it. I hate these stupid fucking political discussions that detract from the website as a whole.

There should be no political arguments on this forum. They are off-topic and masturbatory.

@Dunecat: no one asked you to comment but as you didmaybi say that I see no reason to accept your intolerant, unjustified position as the "answer".

'I just love the fact that you think you are off the hook intellectually because you haven't read it.'

i just love the fact that you think we are meta-argueing. Well Abrham A Wellington* made a great counter arguement, you should read it.


*That's AA Wellington the ficticious, not the meta-ficticious.
orathaic (1009 D(B))

also if you hate them so, why bother your time commenting in them? do they detract from your expierence if you ignore them? OR are you unable to do that because the knowledge of their existance destroys your 'feeling' of what the site should be about?

I think you should be more tolerant of what other people want to discuss.
