Face to face
Played my first face to face last weekend. Bought an 18 pack of PBR and played with 6 total on the board. 3 of us had played before and 3 never. Ended up the 3 that had played drew E/F/G. We made it to 1905 before we ran out of time, but one of the noobs was hooked immediately and ordered the game online next day. He's trying to set up another face to face this weekend.

Should Knowledge Be Free?
We've had this debate ad nauseum regarding music, movies, games, etc. In light of the Aaron Swartz debacle, I think it's worth talking about Piracy in the context of Science.

Sitter
I need a sitter from the 19th through the 27th... it may go a day or so beyond that as well. I hope to have most of my games paused but I'll still have between 5-8 to play. None are shorter than 24 hour phases. If anyone is available and could do this, I'll pay you in hugs and maybe a box of chocolates if you're dumb enough to give an ass like me your mailing address.

Thanks :D

Can't unpause.
Some friends and I are having some tech troubles with our game <http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=102754> in that it won't let us unpause the game. This might not be the right place for this but couldn't find it. Halp? Thanks much!

Why all the Lori Grimes hate?
I'm only through the second episode of season three of Walking Dead, but why all the Lori Grimes hate? We've all done dumb things, like drive off in a car without telling anyone and crashing into a walker, and who hasn't lost a child (a few hundred times), so beyond the obvious complaints (crashing car, losing son), why all the Lori Grimes hate?

On GM crops
"France, remember, long refused to accept the potato because it was an American import. As one commentator put it recently, Europe is on the verge of becoming a food museum. We well-fed consumers are blinded by romantic nostalgia for the traditional farming of the past. Because we have enough to eat, we can afford to indulge our aesthetic illusions."

Why is the forum so slow to load?
Lately it's been taking forever with everything. I demand more speed. I'm an American, and I pay my taxes.

The site in general has been slower since the update. Live games take significantly longer when reloading between turns.

It's a bit slower for me, but there have been periods of high latency before the update, so it's hard to tell if this is a new problem or not.

I have noticed forum posts and opening threads take a hell of a lot longer lately as well. Not unbearable, but when one is used to a certain speed and it suddenly gets significantly slower, it feels it.

@YJ - I would agree with you about the taxes and demanding justice except this is a private site funded out of Australia, so unless you are paying Australian taxes *and* Kestas is receiving public finds to run it, we will be denied any satisfaction as there is no justice to be had. :-P hehehe

Go ahead and quit the damn site, YJ.
When was the last time you played a game anyway?
Oh, that's right. When you get your ass beat!
And I'm going to ask Kestas to install a new feature where you can't comment in the forum unless you are playing or have played a game in the last three months.

Man up and play, or man up and quit. God damn liberal. :-)

For those of you who believe in God, or, hell, those of you who don't if you're willing, please pray for my mom. If you remember my post from a week ago, she had a brain aneurysm, and now the pressure in her brain is increasing and she is probably going to die. So please pray.
