ANOTHER Reason I Won't Be Voting Red This November, It Seems...
http://news.yahoo.com/anti-immigration-tone-alienating-hispanics-162054757.html
Not in love with Obama--he's not great, not horrible...good personality, but not a commanding one, sadly--but I'm sorry, the GOP's totally turned me off...and here's ANOTHER reason...after all, what better way to win an election than to alienate the fastest-growing population in America (one I really care for, too...)

Dunecat's "No Pausing, No Canceling, No Drawing, No Bitching" World Game
So the last game turned into a clusterfuck, which sucks. This game isn't allowed to. Anyone who joins pledges to not pause, cancel, bitch or draw, no matter what, even if someone is banned. Going on vacation? Find a sitter.

Dear all, We are desperately in need of a replacement player for italy. Not the most popular of nations, I know ;) , but a crucial one nonetheless.

SOPA is dead and PIPA won't be far behind.

I love this quote. "The voice of the Internet community has been heard. Much more education for Members of Congress about the workings of the Internet is essential if anti-piracy legislation is to be workable and achieve broad appeal." - QFT!

a day of remembrance
I'd just like to take this moment to remind everyone that 200 years ago we had to beat the crap out of the meddling British once again. Fortunately they've since learned their lesson and we've dominated their culture ever since.

Now if we could only get them to stop saying "lorry."

Anti-Sopa initiative
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/English_Wikipedia_anti-SOPA_blackout
Post here to talk about how bullshit SOPA is and how it mustn't get passed. I support the right to free speech, and so should everybody else.

SOPA really is an all-around piece of garbage. What's particularly infuriating is listening to politicians vilifying China for censoring the Internet and then pretending SOPA isn't the same thing. Luckily, last I looked into it, it really seemed like it wouldn't pass.

Pro's and Con's of SOPA and PIPA?
abgemacht (1076 D(G))

SOPA:

Pros: None
Cons: Dicks around with Internet, Won't stop pircary

PIPA: Not familiar enough to comment.

I must say, as a Fascist, I would think you'd love SOPA. Or is it just because you won't be blacklisting sites?

Well, in any case, to be clear, I don't have a problem fighting piracy, but it should be done in an effective manner and it most certainly should *not* do it by messing around with DNS.

just the description;

"fight online trafficking in copyrighted intellectual property and counterfeit goods."
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
17 Jan 12 UTC
OH!

I thought "IDEA" was another proposal. I was very confused. Yes, fighting online piracy is fine, but the implementation of both SOPA and PIPA is stupid.

It's quite scary. They were planning to put an internet filter here just last year, thankfully it never happened though IIRC both parties never completely ruled it out.

Good luck to you anti-SOPA people, I sure hope it doesn't pass.

a struggle to enjoy this site at times
how do I get some reliable play time, it seems that this place is rife with Multis... I love this game, played it since 1979, online just recently, is there a better way to go about playing this game? there seem to be so many cheaters on here, is that just something I have to put up with or is there a better way?
would love some feed back on options, changes to the dealings of cheaters, or just your opinion
