Dr. Hackenbush or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Look On The Bright Side of Life
I love philosophy/literature, sports, Trek, and comedy, and as I've already done threads on two (three) two of my three favorite things (four favorite things) four favorite things, it's time to do the third thing (fourth thing) foruth thing and pay homage to The Top Comedies Of All-Time! (So, nominate away (3 per person and has to be an original film, ie, no Shakespeare or Greek comedies) and when we get enough, say, 20 (or 42?) we'll vote for the Best Comedy Film Ever!

CDs taken over by bots
There are quite a few decent algorithms out there for playing Diplomacy. Sure, they do not negotiate, but they do make decent choices based on the situation. Why not implement one of them so when a player goes CD, such bot simply takes over the country, until another player steps in?

wtf?
we all know that news is more entertainment than current events, and everything has a spin. Lately though, I've been feeling like I'm living inside a reality TV show or something. Everythings 'gone pear shaped'.

Does anybody know what I'm talking about?

Impersonations/ Impressions of webdiplomacy.net players
Anyone want to give an impression of another member of the site? Could be amusing...
Rules:
1. Not every post can be taking the piss out of obiwan, Draugnar and hellalt.
2. Please keep it fun. It is one thing to poke fun, quite another to be downright rude and offensive. Also, if a member asks you to stop impersonating them, do so.

This is the first time I've logged in for over a year, and I've spent a couple hours now revisiting many of the threads I was involved in. At the time, I thought when a thread dies it was gone forever, so that's a pretty cool feature they added to link those in the profile. There's some pretty funny exchanges. And some pretty heavy discussions about religion and politics. And of course lots of priceless nonsense! Good stuff!

Ah nostalgia. Those were the days. I haven't been active on the forum lately, and there are so many new faces that I feel relatively unknown now. Still, the content is pretty much the same, some game advertisements, a few on topic strategy threads, a survey thread, a few serious discussions, and then some random other threads. However, I'm not a fan of the LPTPW or the word association threads constantly occupying two slots of the front page.

like really crazy, random conversations and everything, people talking about religion and politics, and arguing over beliefs, its insane. do people still do that on this site?

Yeah there's a fair bit of political discussion that goes on from time to time. There was a long one just earlier this month about the so called "Ground Zero mosque" and in August there were like 3 concurrent arguments, all about homosexuality and prop 8. I'm not sure why we needed 3 of them, but there you are. It can be fun to debate stuff like that, and an forum like this is as good a place as any to do it.

haha yea, i especially found it funny earlier in this thread and in the other thread where someone spoke of an anarchist political party. i found this funny because if there was an anarchist political party, that means a group of anarchists banded together to take over the government, which would in turn make them no longer anarchists, for an anarchist is a person who promotes disorder or revolt against any established rule, law, or custom. therefore an "anarchist" political party or government is really just a group of people who dont like the government and seek to change it. a true anarchist would never become part of a political party, or any government organization. so i found that quite enteresting.

lol the "that's it sicarius" thread is probably... imho, a seminal thread in terms of how inane... it was.

but i digress.

we talk about whatever comes up on this site

@butterhead - Now you've done it. If Sic sees this he is just goign to correct your view of anarchy as the anrchist movement believes in ultra small government without elected officials, more tribe like. But that doesn't preclude them attemtping to change and destabilize the government by getting in power first.

So I'm curious, since I hacen't been on in a while, was there a big discussion about the "Arizona law" when that was the big controversy a few months ago? That would have been a fun one to chime in about.
Thucydides (864 D(B))
22 Sep 10 UTC
There wasn't... not that I remember anyway.

There should be because I'm in the middle of a class on US Immigration policy but w/e

Also I was the one to suggest to Sicarius an anarchist political party.


The goal would be to take over government, yes, but with the stated purpose of immediately dismantling it.

Well not immediately, as that would be disastrous, but phasing it out.

This Time On Philosophy Weekly: Causality, Divinity, and Free Will (To Power!) ;)
OK, so a bit of a hiatus after that GREAT Philosopher Knockout Contest (congrats to Plato, Seneca, Kant and Locke for being selected as the Rushmore of Philosophy...I'm sure they're honored.) ;) Anyway, fresh from my Philosophy of Religion class to the WebDip forums: Does causality prevent free will (at least as we conventionally think of it), would a deity do so...and just how free CAN mankind be? If there is no/limited free will, is morality a farce?
