This Time On Philosophy Weekly: Chekhov and Plato Play a String Duet
In his dialogue "Phaedo," Plato's representation of Socrates makes the argument for a human "soul," and states that it's somewhat like a harmony from a harp, that is, representative and yet beyond the actual harp itself. In his short story "Ward No. 6," Chekhov's protagonist, Andrey Yefimitch, muses aloud that a broken violin, far from still being represented by a harmony, is just a heap of rubbish, as it's purely physical, so once broken, that's it. Which maestro's song's truer?

Pauses
Will everyone in the game have to hit unpause or will games be forced unpause after 72 hours?

If people don't unpause and there is no forced unpause, how long until we should get a mod involved?

Please don't post cheating accusatins on the forum. Send an email with the game Id and your suspicions to [email protected] and they will look at it. They have a rule that if they don't have an email about it, they won't look at it because they don't want cheating accusations posted on the forums.

Thank you,

@jmo, let's cut him a little slack. He did apologize after I politely asked him not to post it and pointed him in the right direction. No need to jump down his case.

P.S. I can't believe I'm the one being nice and jmo jumped down his throat. :-)

And then I had that little set-back with the Cheese Whiz... but I'm feeling much better now.

Buddy: [about Harry's mother] Harry, she went into a psychiatric institution after she left you. That's where we met.
Judge Harold T. "Harry" Stone: I'm gonna go out on a limb here... you weren't on the staff, were you?
[Buddy grins and shakes his head]
Buddy: But I'm feeling much better now.

Buddy: Here's a picture of your mother and me at Niagara Falls.
Judge Harold T. "Harry" Stone: [looking] Where are you?
Buddy: In the barrel.
[Harry looks at him]
Buddy: But I'm feeling much better now.

Christine: [drunk] Buddy! Harry! I've gotta go! I've gotta stop him!
[She rushes to the door, and crashes into it]
Buddy Ryan: I used to do that a lot. But I'm feeling much better now!

And my favorite one (actually said by Harry Stone)
Buddy Ryan: Well, it's been quite an eventful day, Harry. Even by my standards. You sure you're all right?
Harry Stone: Well, let's see. I got knocked around by an inept government agent, went through a severe identity crisis, and nearly got myself killed...
[grins at his father]
Harry Stone: But I'm feeling *much* better now!

The Poor need jobs not handouts
The overwhelming basis of arguments put forth by supporters of Big Government on this board use "the poor" as a rational for almost everything.
The problem with this line of reasoning is the poor need jobs not handouts.
Handouts keep the poor poor and dependent.

500 Errors.
I think I'm causing them. I have internet explorer set to open it 500 times when I click on the WebDiplomacy link. And since I'm on all the time, I'm constantly refreshing the pages and stuff that crashes servers. Not to mention I know how to hack into the server if I wanted. I'm thinking about doing it just to show all of you how far I could go as the cult of personality here in WebDiplomacy World! Now give me 1200 D now!

Double mute button fail
When a page is loading I can see posts from a certain person I'm muting. When it fully loads they go away. That's fail #1. Fail #2 is that somehow, while a thread that I created was loading, I saw a post from someone I muted. I thought that people you mute can't see your threads?
