Serious question......
....... if there was a training course on things such as personal development, self-awareness, self-confidence, public speaking, etc, etc what aspects of this (if any) would help you in your life ?
What things do you think would help people be more effective ?

Which dumbass thought we should call everyone who isn't white "People of Colour"?
1. Black isn't a colour.
2. White is all colours.
3. White people change colour when cold, ashamed, hot, sick, dead, and they're born pretty red. Black people stay black.
"People of colour" is probably the most offensive way to call black people, right before "nigger".

Hey everyone - I'm starting up a run of the New World Order variant. This is a 50+ player global map. the game has special rules that mean it has to be adjudicated by hand. The map can be seen here: http:// imgur . com/Hu9iF0n

The 1st top22 active gunboaters' game invitation

27 Jan 14 UTC
After encourageing upcoming talent to join Split's top7 games, and they actually volunteered, I'd like to create a game which these vounteers can actually join and play together with top7 players.

As of now we have:
rokakoma (4th)
Yaleunc (13th)
2WL (15th)
josunice (22nd)
Skittles (26th)

I'm encouraging top 7 players to join, or anyone from the top22. (Skittles gets a free pass for now, as I like to reward volunteering :))

Great, I wanted to PM you anyway, but it's even better.
I PM-ed the "volunteers" but I create the game now, I guess we will be able to fill it up, if somebody changes his mind.

I will PM the password for those, who are in for sure.

Strauss we have 1 spot left, and josunice will fill that one, but I will keep you in mind for the next time, just like guak.
Strauss (758 D)

Fine, I'll waiting.
Tibarius (2967 D)
27 Jan 14 UTC
a place that far down doesn't tell the whole truth about a player if he just recently joined the club rokakoma - anyway, i just offered to participate - if you don't want or don't need me in, i have no bad feelings about it
rokakoma (19138 D)
27 Jan 14 UTC
Tibarius, keep on climing that ladder, and I'm sure that you will be more than welcome in these games. But as you can see we already have more volunteers than we need, all from the top20. So if a spot frees up, guak and strauss are next in line.
2ndWhiteLine (2611 D(B))
27 Jan 14 UTC
Tibarius, judging by the state of the top 20 these days, its not at all hard to get your ranking that high.

Hello all
Its been a while. I'd like to play some quality gunboat games for old times sake. I'd like to be at least 101 point buy in. 24-36 hour phases so everyone has time to get moves in. etc. This is sort of an invitational so I'd like to get some good players to play against.

Why do people play Gunboat?
I'm not denouncing the game mode here. I was just wondering why people want to play Diplomacy without the negotiation aspect. To me, it seems to defeat the purpose of playing the game. I would be happy if someone could clarify this for me.

Why are there non anonymous games?
Since meta gaming is strictly prohibited and frowned upon I have to say I see no benefit to having non anonymous games. All it does is allow people to carry grudges or othe stuff from past games rather than playing the game at hand. Similarly, there seems to be no clear reason why usernames can't also change

Is Communism a form of religious belief?
Is Communism a form of religious belief, where instead of seeing God’s hand at work in all things, one sees the class struggle? When historical events are re-interpreted from a Communist viewpoint in a discussion with non-Communists, is the effect the same as when believers re-interpret historical events as divine intervention, in a discussion with atheists?
