Hypothetical
I am thinking about running a tournament, but I have a question regarding the impact of a scoring system. What do you think the results would be of a scoring system based on the following:

What if rankings are assigned by number of solos, with a tie-breaker being total centres?

There's just no way everything he posts is serious.
Best Character on here, hundy. Glad we can agree.
Everything I've posted has in fact been serious, with the exception of my most recent post (obviously).

Now, are you actually asking for status updates on these things? Because I will gladly update.

ulytau, can you ask TC to man up? I want to see another one of his posts
Well there is nothing to update on the kari sweets debacle, because I just stopped it and didn't follow up on anything.
In regards to the girl at church, I've been trying to ask her to hang out at the movies, but every single time I've been talking to her and about to ask her, I get interrupted and I lose the chance. At this point I'd be surprised if she doesn't suspect that I like her, considering that I talk to her 10 times more than any other girl at the church.
In regards to ponies, yes I am still a brony. Season 3 premier was saturday, so I'm happy about that.
Also, in case anyone is wondering, I am not an anarchist anymore. Just to clear that up. I'd say I'm a Libertarian Republican, and that is most likely where I will remain.
What's new, then?
Not much really. My life is pretty boring. But I guess there are still some things that are mildly interesting.
Do you guys remember my facebook debacle with that one girl from a year and a half ago? She's in my spanish class this year. One day she randomly complimented my hair cut, otherwise she hasn't said anything to me. So I guess thats kinda new.
Also, Calculus is very hard. I was not expecting it to be this hard. I barely have a B.
Did you compliment her hair in return?

"Do you guys remember my facebook debacle with that one girl from a year and a half ago? She's in my spanish class this year. One day she randomly complimented my hair cut, otherwise she hasn't said anything to me. So I guess thats kinda new."

One of the saddest things I've ever read. When I have a son my mission will be to make sure he never writes something like that.

I once did the same thing CM. I was in band in high school and I played this nasty solo really well at an honors competition. A hot girl from another school came up after and was like wow you're really good! I said thank you and stared at her boobs while she stood there awkwardly, obviously waiting for me to engage her in conversation until she walked away.
Well, this was quite a bit different considering I didn't stare at her boobs, class was starting and we had to get to work, and she has a boyfriend.

Someone should step up to become CM's manager. It would be selfish of the webdip community to keep this guy for ourselves when he can go national.

Well if she has a boyfriend that's one thing. Although, that hasn't stopped me from trying.

I tend to find that girls with boyfriends / husbands are actually easier to chat up. Sometimes I suppose it's because their guard is down, sometimes perhaps because their boyfriend / husband doesn't satisfy them, but either way, it's true in my experience.

Perhaps there's something about the fact that you're *not* looking for someone that makes you more relaxed talking to single guys in a social setting?

How does the US get away from the two party system?
I don't have any idea so I'm looking to see what others think. Do we somehow outlaw politcal parties altogether and make candidates run on their own merits? Do we have to do serious reform to campaign financing as well? Give me your ideas!

Where to get Firewood?
This may seem like a silly question, but I've never had a fireplace before, so...
Where do I get it? Most of the trees around here are pine, so I can't burn what falls from storms. A cord goes for close to $300, which seems like a lot, but I don't have anything to compare it to.
