I believe we've got TWO games left... :O
In English, it's common usage to use their when you don' t know the gender of the person spoken about.

Re: Botswana repeals ban on killing Elephants
human population cannot grow without limit. We can either limit it ourselves in a rational way, or we can have nature do it for us in a fantastically brutal way. Those who oppose the former are advocating for the latter. They pretty much lose all moral authority from that point forward.

Re: Botswana repeals ban on killing Elephants
Well, there are clearly too many humans, but there are a lot of ways to address this beyond killing people. Simply reducing the number of births is a good start. Heck, educating girls is a good start. Here, the answer to crop damage is not to go killing things. The ban (and the shoot on sight policy...

Re: ODC 2019 Tournament Discussion (finished games only)
One thing I noticed in both my games was that even though it’s SoS scoring, the DSS mindset seemed heavily ingrained. It was particularly pronounced on the one that ended 12-11-11, but on both it seemed like players thought eliminating others was meritorious, and that smaller powers largely gave up...

Re: ODC 2019 Tournament Discussion (finished games only)
I think we all did our fair share of yelling that game Ogion! I blame sum-of-squares for any annoying aspects of my play. Once my lines were secure, I didn't have anything to lose from continuing to irritate you as long as England was on board. (For what it's worth, I don't think I was ever dishone...

I’m sure there is a player who wants to yell at me.
Goodness though, this was a rare game where I oretty juch got lied to every damn turn.

Re: User Name Explanation
Durga is a Hindu goddess of war. Durga (pronunciation: [ˈd̪ʊrɡaː]; Sanskrit: दुर्गा; Bangla: দুর্গা), meaning "the inaccessible" or "the invincible", is the most popular incarnation of Devi and one of the main forms of the Goddess Shakti in the Hindu pantheon. I've been wondering. So kind of an upg...

Re: ODC 2019 Tournament Discussion (finished games only)
Yeah, I've seen a lot of less experienced games working to through games in fits of pique. In one game we just barely manage to eliminate one rampager in time, which can be very gratfiying.

Re: Will GOT last season live up to the hype..
Ghost isn't a dog. He's a wolf. One doesn't simply walk up and hug a wolf.
That said, I think Aegon takes the Iron throne with a Drogon on one side and Ghost on the other.

Re: Backstabbing vs Sportsmanship
I will tear strips off people who stab or break alliances, especially when they're helping a solo risk, but that's just buzzsaw to get them to back off. Doesn't usually work.
I did have a solo from 3 units once.

Re: The Mediterranean Axis
I'm with those who don't see it working. Turkey gets to Moscow and has nowhere to go but into Austria. Also, if successful, Italy is the only one with northern fleets and gets basically enough to solo if he isn't stabbed.

Re: Will GOT last season live up to the hype..
So much buildup, I'm concerned they try to resolve it too quickly because Martin is bored. There aren't many series this involved that resolve in an appropriate pace.
Then again, Martin is a master, so what do I know.
