Trying to start up a very slow classic game...
I'm thinking the full 10 day phases with somewhere in the neighborhood of a 200-250 point buy-in. Anon or non-anon, WTA or PPSC are both up for negotiation as far as I'm concerned. Are there 6 others out there that would be interested in a game like this? I think I am going to require that no one in this game have any CDs on their record with such long phases, though.

I've only recently started really listening to jazz but my collection is currently stunted at the classic jazz greats (Davis, Mingus, Monk, Brubeck, etc.) and I don't really know anything more recent. Does anyone here have some suggestions as to where I should start?

The largest pot game I could find on the site was this gameID=121342 Gunboat game at 19,999 D from July 2013.

But the largest pot Full-Press game was gameID=15857 for 14,000 D way back in 2010!

Anybody up for breaking both these records and throwing down?

I'm looking for 6 suckers to ante up 3,000 D each for a WTA Full-press game with 36/48 hour phases and pauses should be expected and accomodated for accordingly during some of these holiday travel times.

Nope, not true, the largest game on the site was the all mod game that kestas won in 1901, for well over 1,000,000 D. He cancelled it later, but it still "was" the largest pot ever.

Gen Lee, pm SplitDiplomat about this. He and I talked recently about a 21k game. He was looking for players and I think we had a total of six. If you weren't one of them, you'd be number seven.

Or if you want to set up an anonymous wta, I'm in.

Just for anyone confused by abge's Zultar comment.

"Please email the mods the picture in question, what phase it was used, whether or not it was a picture of a pigeon, and so forth. The mods have the tools to determine the authenticity of the screen shot in question and will act within 24-48 hours." -Zultar

It is true btw, we can determine if a picture of a pigeon is authentic.

That's interesting. The "Bet size (Largest->smallest)" search doesn't work for me. Is anyone else getting nonsense results there? gameID=15540 comes at the top of that search. ("Pot size . . ." does work for me.)

Something does look wrong there, but the bet size probably means something different from how its read. I believe the bet size is the smallest bet possible to join a game, recalculated after anyone joins / leaves, and set to NULL if the game isn't joinable.
The first game in those results has a pretty huge player who went civil disorder, so I can imagine it needing a large bet. Meanwhile the games with the hugest pots which clearly needed a larger bet won't have a minimum bet sze because they're full. The bet size order by is really meant for finding joinable games rather than ranking games

And it's not a way to make money, it's just to see how I could introduce a new digital currency, perhaps as an alternative to bitcoin, how would I do it? And I'm not talking about how I'd build the website, or how I could advertise it: I'm interested in the principle of a digital currency that is simply launched.

What to visit in Asia
I'm going to study in Hong Kong (the place down there where they don't eat people) for a while so I could use some pointers in what to visit in nearby Asian locations by veritable globetrotters of webDip. Please understand that I'm on a student budget that will be severely strained by gambling orgies in Macao and Thai shemale hookers and blow coined by the vodka refreshment on my trans-siberian railway road back to Europe so be considerate of the possible price tags.

U.S. Minimum Wage Increase
This is aimed primarily at conservatives or rightists, if you oppose raising the minimum wage what is your alternative solution? There is clearly a very significant problem and the degree of government subsidies being paid to workers of profitable industries in order to meet basic needs is too high.

As it has been a frequent item of forum discussion around here - the fact that we have large group of high school kids playing -- is there a way we can find out which players are associated outside the game (i.e. who logs in from the same IP?) to prevent players from getting in games with the high school gamers?
