Something we can hopefully all agree on

Besides being outrageously cruel, this boy's family is one of the stupidest I have ever heard of.

What is it with Asian Planes?

So another plane crashed in Taiwan. At least they know what happened with this one. Is it pilot error? Poor upkeep? Illuminati? Something must be responsible for the comparatively high number of plane crashes in Asia.

High quality live game this weekend?

I'm looking to get a high quality live game going this weekend, looking at a 1am Saturday morning start in UTC.

A_Tin_Can (2234 )
05 Feb 15 UTC

For those playing at home, that's:

Friday 5pm PST (USA West coast)
Friday 8pm EST (USA East coast)
Saturday 1am GMT (UK)
Saturday 2am CET (Europe)
Saturday 12 noon AEDT (Australia East coast)

Classic, anon, WTA, FP. I don't care about the bet (so probably 5

unless others prefer something else)

1. A_Tin_Can
2. Hellenic Riot
3. Reserved for an invitee who hasn't got back yet
4. You???
5. ???
6. ???

If you solo, Zultar will probably make you a mod. Fair warning.

A_Tin_Can (2234 )
05 Feb 15 UTC

I'll be careful not to solo then. Modding sounds like a lot of work.

bo_sox48 (5202 )
05 Feb 15 UTC

To be fair, I haven't had a solo since becoming a mod, so expect it to be your last. It's as if the curse is real or something.

ghug (5068 )
05 Feb 15 UTC

It's not a curse, it's an observable effect with an obvious cause.

ghug (5068 )
05 Feb 15 UTC

(The obvious cause being that bo is the worst.)

bo_sox48 (5202 )
05 Feb 15 UTC

[refrains from talking about ongoing game where ghug sucks on the forum]

Valis2501 (2850 )
05 Feb 15 UTC

I wouldn't be surprised if modship was based on fitness selection of internal games. Of course to keep them secret they couldn't play them here. Somewhere no one would think. Somewhere no one would go. Somewhere no one would see. Probably Playdip.

bo_sox48 (5202 )
05 Feb 15 UTC

That's funny. Some people named guhg, ratluz, eniLetihWdn2, naC_niT_A, toiR cinneleH, ememniatpac, and 84xos_ob are playing a game together on playDip as we speak.

Well, the invited #3 couldn't play, but now we have The Walras!

1. A_Tin_Can
2. Hellenic Riot
3. LeonWalras

I'd like to disclose that I know LeonWalras in real life - as long as this isn't a problem, we'll add "all press must be conducted in-game" to the rules for this game.

Snow Shoveling Laws

Somerville instituted a law this past year requiring homeowners to shovel their sidewalks or risk being fined. As someone who walks, runs, and bikes everywhere, I've appreciated the clean sidewalks over the past few weeks. However, do you think its right for a city to require residents to shovel sidewalks?

36hr turns, not competitive, players vaguely know eachother, we can't seem to get a seventh player to commit to playing in our IRL boardgame group. Good attitude means invites to our future games.

RIP Charlie Sifford

The Jackie Robinson of professional golf in the United States died today. He was a racial pioneer for all athletes, breaking a white-only membership history within the PGA, and obviously a fabulous golfer. He received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in November and was the first black member of the World Golf Hall of Fame.

This may have already come up but I have been away for about 6 months...
I've noticed that I only really get 3 mins of time as the game takes 2 mins to update. Is this just me or has there been a change to system or is there just a lot of traffic today?
Any help appreciated. Thanks
