Who wants a piece of this???
As some of you may have noticed, I've been discretely playing a random game here and there in the last bit. Having seen my last one end because a dumb ass resigned, I thought it was time for fiercer competition. Any takers?

Clicking "+1" just takes you to the top of the page.
I tried to click the +1 icon on a posting I liked, but it just jumps you to the top of the page. Presumably this is something to do with the earlier WebDip outage.

@Al:

I'm not very out-doorsy. What if building on the north or south of the island has significantly different consequences of which neither of us is aware but one or more of the women is?
Al Swearengen (0 DX)

@Wiltor

Now here is where you are in luck - while a squirrel might run around an island pointlessly depositing acorns, unable to share information with us, a woman is slightly smarter than a squirrel and thus likely to speak up to prevent calamity. Allow me to present a limited intellect hierarchy, in ascending order:

squirrel
cat
boy
woman
dog
horse
man

@ Al: If a woman beat the shit out of you, would that make her a man? If you claim that fighting is part of what defines men, then does that mean that women who are good at fighting are actually men?
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))

Jamie you need to play with venn diagrams a bit.

If all doctors are tall, and all tall people are men, does that mean all doctors are men?

No. No it does not.

Willtor (113 D)

@Al:

Okay. The "fat mighty sides in mirth" was a little over-the-top, but the hierarchy is not something a real misogynist would do. Also, cats are _way_ smarter than dogs.
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))

Willtor that's satire gold by Al. Critique it if you feel you must, but I for one know when to stop counting time and just let the musician play his instrument.

Also, did anybody notice that Ulytau called Al a "Sololess retard?" Thats an awe-inspiring diplo-specific insult that aught to make one's foes cringe!

No, in order to be a man one also must have been born with a penis. A girl or a woman can never become a man.

Without further adieu I will post the man laws.
Al Swearengen (0 DX)

The man laws:

Only once a boy leaves the safety of his mother's skirt is he ready to set out in the world. He begins to fight, and to dominate women.

Then he is a man.

Some men will take a Man Job. Men will be strong, or will seek to become strong.

Here are the rest of the man laws:

So the site was out of order for a while. A live gunboat is still to begin (although it's set a 'now'), it doesn't start, nor can anyone leave. Is there anything we can do about this situation?

Had a chance to explain American politics today
It was an interesting opportunity. It started with my coworker asking about the electoral college and evolved into a general question of how American politics works. Her reaction was mixed. I know we log on here every day and gripe about how our politics suck, but after my holistic explanation, I feel almost grateful we have politics to gripe about. Our problems really aren't that bad. (Unless Romney/ Ryan wins, jk! not really.)

Game
In commemoration of a string of high-profile bans lately, I've created a game to celebrate. I am looking forward to decreasing the number of games "infected" by a multi from 45% to about 10%, which is what mine is. If you want the password, message me. Don't play if you're a multi because the mods will be keeping close tabs on all of us I'm sure.
