How is one's position calculated?
Is it based upon the number of games played? How recently the last games were played? The distribution of wins, survivals, loses?

Gray checks/Saved moves
I know that when you click save instead of ready, you get a gray check. But if time runs out before you click ready, are your saved moves inputed or do you have no moves for that turn?

Colorblindness update and live game display option
Colorblind options are now live. Live game display option is also live. Both settings can be changed under "settings." Much thanks to ATC and the dev team, including thorfi, Kestas, and Oli. ATC will also push out the auto update fix for the colorblind option soon. You might have to manually update your map to see the change at the moment.
Please thank them for the work they do and let us know how much you enjoy these updates!

To those arguing about Tsarnaev
These are the names you should be remembering:

Krystle Marie Campbell (29), Lu Lingzi (23), Martin William Richard (8), and Sean A. Collier (27). Not to mention the 264 other injured people. The bomber does not deserve to have his name remembered by society, they do.

Second Quake in Nepal
You all heard the news before. I asked people not to forget, so I'm reminding people today again. There was a second quake this morning of similar magnitude (7.3), killing many, but more importantly right now, people are forced to live communally outdoors as the monsoon season approaches.

Once it begins to rain, cholera will likely break out in the cities, and there will be a whole new emergency then. Cholera will spread with communal water (and communal sewage), an issue Nepal has experienced before, but for now, basic relief is needed ahead of what is looking like an inevitable outbreak.

Mercy Corps has been on the ground in Nepal as a general aid agency for many years and now helps lead the relief distribution efforts since the Nepalese government is, as usual, useless and selfish. I encourage you to donate to them, but obviously, any donation to any reputable organization or person is encouraged. Link to their website below:

What is it about oxfam that you like?

13 May 15 UTC
I like most groups that coordinate through local chapters of their organization. Similarly to Mercy Corps, Oxfam has been in Nepal and was in Haiti for a long time before these disasters. They know the people and culture and can better determine what they really need than anyone that just arrived.

Oxfam - you could do worse. Seems a reasonable charity.

What I like about Oxfam is their comprehensiveness and durability. They address all sorts of issues simultaneously. It's the kind of organization that deserves to have its funding multiplied a hundred or thousand fold.

I also like that they are not afraid to get political and call out corporations for accelerating climate change and stealing land from indigenous people in the global south. Many charities care only about direct alleviation of difficult conditions, but Oxfam recognizes that these difficult conditions are manmade and political in origin, rather than some kind of engineering or logistics problem merely. In short, they tackle the roots causes while still addressing the immediate needs, and do both very well.

I wonder if krellin will change his mind about Oxfam now...
