And I Thought Texas Threatening Secession Was Good...

Seriously? This is what 31,000+ people spend their time doing? Get a life… none of us are trying to deport Wayne LaPierre and he has a tad more impact than Piers Morgan.

Another discussion about pauses <yawn>
I thought this topic had been disussed to death. Pauses had to be voted by everyone to apply. However, I now learn that the mods will pause a game that has six votes only if they email the 7th member and he doesn't respond. I'm happy with all 7 or 6 plus an unreplied to email rule, but would like some clarity

My New Favorite Bible Passage
11 If two men are fighting and the wife of one of them comes to rescue her husband from his assailant, and she reaches out and seizes him by his private parts, 12 you shall cut off her hand. Show her no pity.
--Deuteronomy 25:11-12 (That's quite possibly the most horrible-yet-hilarious passage I've ever read that's meant to be taken seriously...can anyone...erm, defend it? At all? If so...you're the most amazing lawyer ever.) xD

Small question
Sometimes in the archives I find games in which somebody RESIGNED. How does one do that? There isnt any button to do that right?

It is when you Had CDed, and never came back until the game already finished.
Thanks!

It can be wholly unintentional, as in my one instance. Unfortunately, the term 'Resigned' might well lead others to believe it was intentional. Maybe 'Fucked up' might be better?

Do not resign. If you deliberately CD in a game, everyone will think you're an asshole.
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))
22 Dec 12 UTC
And don't "quit" if the game is tainted by another CD or a multi or something.. you'll only further screw up the game.
It is kinda strange there isnt a button to do it though. In many of the games I have played (not here), people have conceded defeat to other players. For some reason, the Webdip software doesnt seem to allow that. A shame I think because it encourages draw-focussed play.

End game play is key, I've seen people come back and win a game when they were down to 1 supply center and someone else had 10+. It just completely depends on the press. Other problems would angle around, who do you concede too if several players have an equal # of centers, does conceding let you simply quit? If so people would just quit whenever you start losing and no one would ever solo. I'll go more in depth later, but those are a few quick thoughts on why it would cause problems to introduce that feature.
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))
22 Dec 12 UTC
That feature would simply cause people to quit quicker than they already do. We strive to make people *not* quit, not quit when they don't have the amount of centers that they'd planned at the beginning.
Two good points. Since I have inadvertantly started the same discussion in another thread, I'll post there.

Remember BBC TV's 'Mastermind'? Magnus Magnusson? "I've started, so I'll finish'"
That's the ethic we should be encouraging.
