The weird ways of Johnny Foreigner
As you travel the world more and more you begin to understand that people from all nations and backgrounds are basically the same. Then, just when you're beginning to feel at one with the society you're visiting, you come face to face with a concept so bizarre and alien it leaves you in a state of open jawed incomprehension. Lets hear some stories of the weird things foreigners do!

How's this for weird?
There's this girl at my high school who screams at the top of the lungs whenever she gets frustrated or stressed out. Sometimes we're just working in class and we suddenly hear screaming, and all the freshman are like, "why isn't anybody doing anything?"

Wow. The New Testament actually spells out in the which commandments we have to obey.
Read Mathew 19: 16-30. And note that when Jesus told the man to sell his possessions, he was actually saying one additional commandment we have to obey: Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. The man was putting his possessions before God, that is why Jesus told him to sell everything.

Please Help Science
I am entering the third year of a science research class at my high school and so far I have had limited success with my topic, cryptozoology. I mounted an expedition to find Bigfoot, but came up empty handed. In order to have results to present at competition next year I have shifted the focus of the project and I would really appreciate it if you could take this survey.

An exemplary partnership
gameID=34979

Kudos to Russia and Germany in this game. I don't believe I've ever seen a partnership work this well. When you factor in that there was no messaging allowed in this game, their alliance was literally incredible.
ava2790 (232 D(S))
02 Aug 10 UTC
Daaannng those two are so tightttt. And what talent - victories in just the 4th game for both of them.
I mean honestly, to have the trust in each other to leave SCs wide open to the other party, and I want to emphasize this, in a no-messaging game, and to never see one country violate the other is frankly amazing.
ava2790 (232 D(S))
02 Aug 10 UTC
Well it is after all their 4th game with each other...they've probably developed awesome trust and telepathy powers.
Good job, Thing-er and Danistan 619. Their ability to anticipate each other's moves and offer up the proper support to the attacking unit as they rampaged through formerly Austrian territory is uncanny.
ava2790 (232 D(S))
02 Aug 10 UTC
I nominate these two for Rookie of the Year award.
What's stunning is how Germany was totally able to resist going after Russia when Russia was kicked out of the Balkans and Sevastopol and had emptied Scandinavia to go after England. I don't know any single individual capable of that kind of restraint, but Thing-er proves that I underestimate the power of a good alliance.
Yes, ava, clearly they should joointly share some sort of prize for their ability to function well together. Especially considering that the game did not allow for messaging. Hat's off, you two scamps.

were they PMing each other using the webdip PM system?

how else can TGm be so sure that they were talking?

I mean the circumstantial evidence is damning enough, but I'm curious if TGM could tell that they were using another chat software or not.

thank you ghostie for cleaning them outta here.

out of curosity - does that mean Bob Genghiskhan is the winner and gets all those points/

That has to be the best non "cheating accusation" accusation I have ever seen. Bob +1 for creatively calling out the cheats to the forum without actually saying "these guys are metas/multis".
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)

Babak, it was pretty obvious from the evidence in front of me that they were talking/cheating.... two brothers using the same PC.

Any chance the "Thinger" in this game is related to "The Thing-er" who was banned a couple days back?
tarspaceheel (503 D)
03 Aug 10 UTC
To be fair, if he's not metagaming or multi-ing, I have no problem. And I don't think there was anything too suspicious in that game. I was just curious.
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)

No sign of cheating there.

I've always thought that the mod who banned them should get the points, to give an incentive for mods to be more active :P

Obiwan and the TV Church: Attempting To Understand The People of the Book and Their Point
Well, it's a common criticism of me when I speak at school, on the bus, on this site-iif you're going to criticize the Judeo-Christian Tradition, you HAVE to give it a fair shot first, church and all.
So I'm tuned into "Uplifiting" on Dict TV: All Bible Study and Christian Church programming, all the time! (First observation--Christians can't afford better production values for their Holy Netowrk?) ;)
