The United States has assassinated an American citizen, never having been charged or indicted; this has sent a precedent that anyone the government deems a "threat" by a legal analysis the government won't even release can be blown up from the sky. There is no outcry or even discussion among most Americans; he is a terrorist. When people exchange liberty for security, they deserve neither.

If I was to delete some supply centers on the map to improve balance and to make the map less unit-crowded, I would delete centers in Rumania, Denmark and Portugale. What do you think?

So, I'm reading Joyce's Ulysses this week as part of my studies. It's a renowned and controversial text so I figured many of you here would have something worthwhile to offer me on it. Although I expect and welcome a fair amount of comments of ridicule - I hope some of our more scholarly contributors might be able to offer me an insight/judgement or two.

^True quote from a guy so pompous even *I* can't stand him (who claims to know all about...everything, and knows nothing, INISISTING English people wore no pants or anything of the sort until Henry VIII, and that tarring a guy's ball's is ESSENTIAL to understanding Huck Finn...not kidding, he said this)
1. If a work is "too hard"/unclear to you, your fault, authors's fault, or both?
2. I argued you should read such works twice, he said bull--opinions?

Some of us are students who seek knowledge. Some of us are professors, teachers, or practicioners who have knowledge. Why not use this forum to learn?

I'm not on the Dev forum and don't even remember if I ever created an account so if Kestas reads this or someone wants to relay it...

Hi I'm trying to get into a game called Big Mouth, I'd like to play if y'all still need players
please pm me whenever!
cheers

is the best feature EVAR. Okay, you can mute this one now.

I have now been back around phpDip for a couple weeks now and I just want to say to everyone that this must be one of the best forums on the web.

So I'm not accused of derailing the science thread.

When would it make sense to build Fleet StP 1901 instead of an army there? Isn't the army there much more flexible and useful? My point is that Russia cannot hope to mount a full offensive on England this early - and certainly not a naval one, so isn't his best hope in the North to mount a flexible defense while spooking Germany into helping him? Even when he succeeds in doing so, wouldn't Germany play the major naval part with your original fleet supporting from the Norwegian?

When their arguments are blown apart, they don't respond except to correct spelling errors and declare victory because of that.

But that's not the same thing as being a cult.

The Iranian government won't provoke the US into war because Iran would not win. Iran's nuclear ambitions result from a regional struggle with Saudi Arabia and having a weapon would increase local prestige/power; Iranian possession of a weapon is certainly not a threat to the US, and is less of a threat than to the US than Pakistan's weapons are.

Join up! Fast & fun!

since more then 2 hours it is not possible to fill in orders in my World Diplomacy IX games. There is only the message orders loaded... but nothing happened. Reload, Reconnect and Restart of game, browser, internetconnection and computer do not change anything so I guess the problem is not local...

Cocnkey topped the field of WebDip NFL Experts--sure, we're experts, right?--with 14 games picked correctly...congrats! (Full standings inside!)
But its a new week! The Jets and Pats enter a game neither can afford to lose with the upstart Bills at 3-1! Buffalo can drop Philly's Dream Team to 1-4 with a win! Oakland, Houston, Tampa, and San Fran all play as upstarts trying to gain standing! GB@ATL in the nightcap, and DET@CHI on Monday Night! Week 5...PICK 'EM!

I'm looking to organise a 5min turn anon with no in game messaging this evening but only have two points. Is there a way around this problem?

I've always felt that this is one of the more awkward talking points in S01. How do you normally approach this as Germany (or Russia for that matter)?

So how 'bout their new album - American Capitalist?

It would be really sad if gryncat and I's welcome back game started with civil disorder.

"Like any good negotiation, we've managed to make all parties moderately dissatisfied,"

Just felt so Diplomacy related on oh so many levels.

Make the diplomacy phase more challenging with the outside-the-box message variants contained within.

This thing is wild. Let your thoughts and inevitable conspiracy theories fly.

Do people think that it actually happens much, in games with no messaging at all, that two players decide before the game to help each other. I'm not complaining, or accusing, I just wanted to know what people's thoughts are about this. I have only come across one game where I suspected that the two players were in cahoots from before the game started, but whether or not it happened, the actions of two players kind of ruined the game.

And no. This is not a list of movies that you liked while high. It is about the movies that have actors acting like they are high.(or are really high)

I am tired of shitty live games. Anyone interested in a high quality gunboat tonight?

I wonder what people think of the MLK quote?
