PROP 8 OVERTURNED! CAL COURT STRIKES IT DOWN IN 2-1 DECISION!
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/feb/07/prop-8-california-gay-marriage-ban-struck-down?newsfeed=true
A great victory for the movement...one of the most high-profile setbacks and cases of trying to discriminate against the LGBT community via the ballot box, and it's finally been defeated--thoughts? Could the gay marriage become legal nation-wide within, say, 20 years? Longer? Shorter?

A Love of Submission and Slavery--Personality and Party Cults in Religion and Politics
The very term "Islam" itself refers to personal and religious submission...
The First Commandment and The Bible preach submission to God/Jesus...
The USSR, Nazis, DPRK, Cuba, and Iran all have/had personality cults...
ARE Parties and Religions, in the end, doomed to enslavement and submission of this nature?

Bounce question
Quick question for any of you in the know out there.
If you have a string of orders that all bounce eachother and one of the string is supported will it bounce as well?
For example A Ber-Pru, A Kiel-Ber, A Mun-Kiel, A Ruhr sup A Mun-Kiel.
Will all orders bounce if another unit enters Prussia on same move

Available points: 867
Points in play: -469
Total points: 17179
how can you be playing minus points?
zultar (4180 DMod(P))
07 Feb 12 UTC
That's just something that happens when you play over 1000 games. You see, the system wasn't built for anyone individual to play that many games. So when it gets past 999, all the points will have to go into its minus area to compensate. It's called the Y1K problem.
I'm surprised that more people aren't familiar with this issue.

three english builds in 01? one of the fleets have to convoy the army off the island. The most England can grab is 2 builds. But we were talking about england as it's own entity, without help of any other nation.

admittedly Germany was extremely weak in that game, went head-on to Russia, none of the other players had expected this.

"But we were talking about england as it's own entity, without help of any other nation." Then you are playing the game wrong!

didn't know grammar would be part of the argument here, if you understand what I am trying to say just acknowledge that fact.
carpenter (645 D)
07 Feb 12 UTC
well, you are aware of the fact that a French fleet is allowed to convoy an English army? In an aggressive F/E alliance, putting all units immediately at the front (with Germany) is very beneficial. And if you can pull this off, you're a very good player in my opinion.
Boner (100 D)
07 Feb 12 UTC
Have you read the thread carefully, you could find the post about England getting three builds in 01, convincing France to convoy it's army to Bel.
Mafialligator (239 D)
07 Feb 12 UTC
OK sandgoose, I will acknowledge the fact that if england does not work with any other nation there is no way for it to get more than 2 builds in 1901. That being said, while the 3 build 1901 is extremely rare it is a good idea to consider working with other players.

Proposal: As close to FtF as possible.
Does anyone have any interest in playing a game with some FtF rules? Not a live game, but specifically a game where press is not allowed during retreats or build phases, and those phases are possibly shorter. 48 hour Spring and Autumn, 24 hour retreat/builds? Assuming its kosher as a mod, I would change the game to gunboat and the phase length to mimic FtF. The only thing I would request is no finalising and a starting at a time I know I can be online for each shift.

I wonder...cheating?
In a game (Who me? Stab you!) that has no messages of any kind and two players from the start seem to be working together. The variant is Ancient Med and the countries involved are Egypt and Carthage. They moved only one unit towards each other and then supported each other from then on. Maybe its me but I find that kind of movement very suspicious. What do you think?

I've been studying the 7 countries and the centers they control when they arrive at the magic 18 and I've noticed a trend among the nations. Sometimes there are solos that break that trend. If you have soloed a game where your win came with you controlling a cropping of bizarre centers, I'd be interested in seeing them. Post your entries this weekend and on Monday, I'll vote a winner based on how much it deviates from the norm.

Now the wheels are turnin'!
Ok if I am convoying an army and have 1 other fleet supporting the convoying fleet's position, and an opposing player attacks the convoying fleet with 1 unit in support, making it 2 on 2, will the convoyed Army still make it to it's destination?

So...What Do You All Want To Do Once You're Dead?
A composer, Andre Tchaikowsky, said in his will he wanted to donate his skull to the RSC for performances...and he finally got his wish--David Tennant's "Hamlet" features Tennant using a REAL SKULL for Yorick...Tchaikowsky's! And I read that, I know what *I* want now...donate the rest to science, maybe save the brain if I'm rich enough, but I'd LOVE if my skull was on stage after I died! So--launched into space, scattered ashes in your favorite area...what?
