The book "The Coddling of the American Mind" is a book I recommend. You can definitely witness the damage done as more and more Millenials go out to the workforce and are entitled whiny losers. (#notallMillenials) I wonder if they were spanked growing up? Kind of hard to get past their coddling of ...

Growing up my bottom would get wailed on whenever I made a scene but looking back, I wonder if that technically counts as abuse? I turned out okay so maybe it worked (It didn't even really hurt, I just pretended it did so they wouldn't spank as long) But maybe I should be angry about this in hindsi...

Theim is Austrian, not Australian. Don't worry Kakarroto, it's a common mistake, although Trumptoad made it as well, so I'm not sure that being in his company is anything to be happy with. Aren't they the same thing? I mean isn't that why we keep seeing pictures of giant burning forests high in the...

There was also an accidental draw in G6, which I'm not sure how you account for that...

Has anyone calculated standings for this tournament yet? Someone the second round games have finished up. Kind of curious but also lazy

I'm sorry, but how are they late? It is still November, is it not?

Did this tournament die?

Congrats to ali on their solo!! http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=237243

I believe we've got TWO games left... :O

"Their"? Is he a hive mind or something?

In English, it's common usage to use their when you don' t know the gender of the person spoken about.

G 37 skid marks soloed! Congrats. Brings Skids to 120 points, knocking fluffy credo out of the semifinals.

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.

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...

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...

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.

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...

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.

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.

Can I just say that these changes and updates are fantastic? Amazing work all around. Much appreciated!
