List films you're not sure if they land on the happy side of par...or just barely fail...or just hit the line...Mine's "Bladerunner"--I STILL can't tell if that's the best bad movie or worst good movie I've ever seen...it has some of the best stylistic and atmospheric elements of any even partially-action film I've seen...but even with the PDK book's ideas and the VK test...so DULL, and plodding, with a plot heavier on conceptualization than payoff, until the very, very end...I dunno.

Last week Alderian sent me all of the CSV files so I've now completed the viewer. Here's a link to d/l it

"We were appalled when we found out," says Brown, who's a registered nurse. "Why do they need to store my baby's DNA indefinitely? Something on there could affect her ability to get a job later on, or get health insurance."

Does anyone know where or how to look for overall results of Dip games by varient (full press vs. gunboat) and country? Just looking for some data.

suggestions please.

Hey there are a bunch of acronyms used on this forum about the game that I haven't been able to figure out. I did a search and couldn't find them anywhere. Does anyone have a list?

Specifically, not sure what NMR, CD and PBM are.

There's a game with 6 players with 2 missed phases each as of Fall 1902. All have 95 . 1 player is playing on. Seems phishy. Where do I report?

Since I have been gone for 2 years, many things have changed. The thing that I LOVE is the option to mute threads. Not that everything the people on this site say isn't fascinating, but it sure helps me clean up things and get to the threads that I am really interested in. Whoever came up with this idea...+1.

gameID=109545, replacement needed.

Saw the word "monopoly" going around in another thread and thought about this.... http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2013/02/06/monopoly_token_contest_game_makers_announce_a_cat_will_replace_the_iron.html

The iron is gone, folks... long live the money bag. That's my only piece.

I know that you are not supposed to talk about an anonymous game, but gameID=109945 is just starting S1902 and we lost Austria to being a multi. Looking for a replacement. Please jump in. Thanks.

I'm playing my first GB game and I don't like it. I don't like not being able to congratulate my ally on a good move. I don't like not being able to duck with my enemy. I don't like seeing a briliant move that requires cooperation and not being able to tell my potential cooperator about it, so that he doesn't bounce me. I do not like it Sam I Am, I do not like GB and ham.

Just curious. Post your in-game messages average (doing your best to account for gunboat, Wilson, etc) and your January WTA Classic GR.

George Soros is arguably one of the most powerful men in America. He has built dozens of organizations, has handpicked the Obama team, and is funding the DNC, the Media, and a bunch of other stuff.

I am running OSX Lion on several macs in my house and continuously drop connection to the web dip server. I go to refresh a page or move to another and I just watch the pinwheel spin and eventually tell me that Google Chrome cannot connect to the server. I have tried both Safari and Firefox with no better results. Is this a browser problem, or do I have to change some settings? Should I change browsers? Help!

I was just interested in arguments (and good places - books/authors/economists) that would support the idea that a system that insists on the primacy of free exchange and private property can be just, if anyone has any...

Article 1 Section 8 of the US Constitution gives Congress the power to issue letters of marque and reprisal. Originally intended as a means for legally combating pirates with privateers, discuss the plausibility of using this old power to legally fight (and kill) certain high value terrorists (who may be American citizens) with military force

Advertisements (commercialized propaganda) are often criticized for portraying things in certain ways. The first thing that comes to my mind are cigarette ads. But shouldn't a financially aware institution conform to the cultural mindset in order to maximize profit? Could it be that everyone in the United States is a hypocrite?

It seems that many people here have ideas that lean toward Communism. (Not me--for the record I am a strong free market Capitalist.). So is any one here willing to admit that they are Communists?
