I dare you to lock this.

Here is the very very first version of my WW2 map to look at. I already posted a thread about this but basically the I just need some advice on the map. Is there anything that strikes you as obviously geographically or historically inaccurate at this stage? Before I go adding supply centres and things.

The country may change .... but not the behaviour

Unlike Syria and North Korea, which did in fact open up to criticism.

Next thing you know they'll have pink neckerchiefs, sing YMCA songs and have badges for dress-making and empathy

My question: is this lawyer just asking to be murdered by militant feminists?

Anyone else working on anything fun?

See inside.

Not wealthy should you be allowed to own guns--you should, the 2nd Amendment gives you that right--but why this is treated so often as the line in the sand...why, in short, do you seem value guns so highly as to seem to approach the point of fanatical worship (at least that's how it appears to some of us on the outside.) There is one answer I'm not buying (and I'll give it below) but aside from that...I have to know--why do value your guns seemingly first and foremost?

Yet another reason why we shouldn't interfere in the internal affairs of sovereign states, the people they elect can be worse than the people they replace.

It has just been reported that several recent stabbings in ******** were inspired by an online game called 'Diplomacy', which encourages players to 'stab' others as a major part of gameplay.
The perpetrators have denied any knowledge of the game, but mentioned the name 'Timur'. He has been tracked down to the Far East and is currently being hunted. (As usual. Never been caught yet :~)

We are well on our way to a game with a 40 buy-in and 14 hour turns. We hope you'll join us. http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=109196

see: http://nextbigfuture.com/2008/03/deaths-per-twh-for-all-energy-sources.html

Basically a count of deaths per Watt-hour of energy. What is that safest? Discuss.

Good luck Tom Bombadil, thanks for volunteering your time.

So this catholic hospital due to malpractice saw twin boys get killed. The Father tried to sue and lost on the grounds that the fetuses were not considered life. Apparently the catholic church is pro-life only when it suits them.

I was just thinking about this, going through people's games, so frequently I see a big red cross and upon clicking the players name. ''Banned for multi''

Anybody know? He hasn't been on since 12/28.

I suspect that there is cheating on game Dungeness Spit. Either E & F are the same player or they are meta-gaming together. Who do I contact to look into this?

If you take off from this game for a couple months, then come back, its like an entirely new game. each message has more weight, more meaning. for all you dipaholics, i highly recommend it!!

Yes, you read that right Star WARS. I think we can all agree this is more important than anything else currently being discussed.

Three months, 25 games completed, and I finally won my first solo! Hooray for not being a "political puppet" anymore!
