Politicians not doing what they are supposed to be experts at
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-20872919
Isn't it time that politicians got payment-by-results. These guys are elected to do a job they're not doing, stop those salary payments and you might see a little activity .... too many self-serving politicians

convoy
If one convoys an army with a fleet that is being attacked (with support), does the army that is being convoyed considered breaking the support of the supporting fleet that is supporting the fleet into the convoying fleet's territory?

Nowadays, when people bring up how the earth is not billions of years old, but actually a couple thousand years old, at birthday parties or whatnot, I just sort of nod and smile. Evolution=fact. http://i38.tinypic.com/2 D98kyu.gif

Do You Plan to Hear the People Sing? "Les Miserables" in Theatres...
I went with friends to see it (PACKED HOUSE, which I'd never have expected, it's arguably the most popular musical ever, sure, but it's not like the town I live in is exactly a cultural hotbed that loves its musical theatre and opera) and it was...well, if you're going to see the most-beautifully sung "Les Mis" ever, you'll be utterly disappointed, but if you're going to just see a "good version of it with some good acting and some awesome cinematography...well, thoughts?

No response from mods on ensuring everyone gets each country once. Unless someone chimes in, I guess we will let it be.

I have one of everything except Italy. That means I have 2 of one country. I'll hit pause in case there is a reshuffle so the new guy doesn't get screwed with my orders.

Haha... How DO you say fuck you in Italian?

Can the Mods shuffle? I have not heard back from them. I'll put in a pause, but. I would rather play than sit around... Going back to work soon enough. If any of you guys know someone, please reach out.

Ah, Czech likes the rough love. Its just pre battle banter. Also imagine him as baby seal... It would be hilarious.
yebellz (729 D(G))
28 Dec 12 UTC
I just shuffled the games, but left them paused. They should be ready to go. Just unpause when you are ready. Let us know ASAP (via the mod email) if there are any issues with the shuffle.
The Czech (40297 D(S))
28 Dec 12 UTC
Mmmmm, baby seal. Nothing tastes better. Not even Bambi and Thumper are as moist and succulent.

I voted unpause in all games.

@Czech: I have to admit that i have never eaten Baby Seal up to now (i doubt that you have either but that is beside the point). I am on an ongoing mission to eat myself once through creation. Bambi and Thumper never stood a chance ...
The Czech (40297 D(S))

Gator tail and frog legs are my preferred choices. They taste like baby seal, but you can deep fry them. Mmmmmmmmm.

Kangaroo tastes awesome, so do snails with metaxa sauce. There are some internet shops where you can order exotic kinds of meat. I am a fan.
Gen. Lee (7588 D(B))
28 Dec 12 UTC
Well is is really annoying, apparently I got other people's moves switched to my games. 3 of 7 were not what I wanted.
2ndWhiteLine (2611 D(B))
28 Dec 12 UTC
Yeah, when the mods do a reshuffle you end up with the moves entered by the player who held the country before you were switched. Always need to double check.
Partysane (10754 D(B))
28 Dec 12 UTC
I had that too, but noticed it when I unpaused the games. Just one move I missed and I really wonder what the guy that had the country before was thinking.
Gen. Lee (7588 D(B))
28 Dec 12 UTC
Oh well I should be able to improvise.

Guys, I think we have a pretty interesting opening -- not a lot of the same, it seems....
josunice (3702 D(S))
28 Dec 12 UTC
I welcome the opening brisk pace... with all the open games (plus the bad boys I had in play already), I am more inclined to make a decision and ready my moves... not sure that is a good thing or bad, but more efficient, for sure. Good luck guys -- it is already quite fun to be one of each watching the games develop at similar speeds....

A Modest Proposal (Don't Shoot!)
The 2nd Amendment is antiquated--face it, it is..."a well-regulated militia"...those are NOT the grounds upon which guns are being argued for currently, are they? This was written at a time of muskets, not machine guns. We've repealed and updated Amendments before...why don't we create a NEW Amendment creating guns, give new language--both pro and con--to the matter, so guns can be legal but we can have some sensible language on the matter?
