Dutch society is slowly getting split in two.
Essentially, we have a group of networking, pro-European and highly educated ruling class of about 30% of the population and a group of family-and-friends based, anti-European and professionally educated 70% ruled class.

All players have between now and the 10th of October to pay $10 to the site to buy-in. Once the payment is made, contact Zultar so that he can confirm your payment and inform me of your payment. I will not accept claims by players . Once Zultar has informed me that you have paid, then you will receive an official spot in the tournament.

Games will be created on Saturday, October 11th. Time will be given to allow players to join. All games will be Classic, full-press, anonymous, winner-takes-all games with 36-hour phases and a minimum bet of 5 D. If players wish to up the ante, they may collectively choose to do so. I will announce boards on Saturday, October 5th to allow players in those games to set a points bet for each game.

FOR THE FORUM AT LARGE: If you wish to unofficially participate in the tournament, you may sign up between now and October 10th as an UNOFFICIAL CONTENDER. Unofficial contenders will act as a fill-in for short boards or a fill-in in the event a player needs to have long-term sub or CD takeover.

The tournament will have 3 rounds. Round 1 will start as soon as all 7 players join board 1. Round 2 will fill up at the start of November. Round 3 will fill up at the start of December.

As of now, the tentative entrants are:

1. rdrivera2005
2. ssorenn
3. abge
4. Your Humble Narrator
5. ag7433
6. jmspool
7. Atrum
8. Sherincall
9. Code Bomb
10. Aryeon
11. Valis2501
12. mdrltc
13. Octavious
14. breaca

If anyone needs a temporary pause for 1 week or less, you should first request that the players involved in your game(s) pause the game. In the event that one or more players refuse to pause, PM me and I will establish a pause for up to a week. Any longer and you should request a long-term sub.

If anyone has any questions, you may PM me or ask them here. I will be the official Tournament Director for this game.

Is it US$10 or AUD$10 that you're looking for? It seems that the Donate Now button is converting to Aussie money. (That funny looking plastic stuff, I imagine.)

Ah no, for this tournament, the money is going to me. I'll give the money to Tru to buy the plaques. The rest of the money will go to the site.

My paypal address is [email protected].

Please send it as a gift, so we don't have to pay tax.

Lol, it's an extra $20 to NOT get the country of your choice.

Actually, if you can make the following note when you donate it would help:

Hmmm, in order to keep up my +1 whore status, I can't post every time someone donates as that would likely decrease my ratio. So unless I get a +1 in this thread every time I update, I'll just PM you and email you that I've received the money. :)

I have also shared the excel doc with the mods and will share with Tru as well so he can also have a record.

a bit too many busy colors here ... ?
Hello, Just my humble opinion, but I find that there are maybe too many colors at use here for the text on this game website. I find that it kind of gives me a bit of a headache looking at it all and it adds to complexity instead of making things easier!

The Pro-Muslim Thread
Just wanted to make sure that if any Muslim guys stop by the forum, we wanted you to know that the anti-Muslim crowd doesn't speak for everyone. Plenty of us are accustomed to living in peace side by side with the Muslims. Hit me up in a game if you want.

The Worst President in American History Is...
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ivan-eland/is-barack-obama-the-worst_b_6061208.html James Buchanan. That'd be my pick. Those on the Left can shout Dubya Bush, and those on the Right can scream Obama...and claim both have divided the nation...Buchanan had the effing Civil War happen on his watch! When the country *literally* breaks apart and begins its most deadly war during your term, I think that's grounds for calling you the worst. Nominations for the worst?

Russia Orders Obama: Tell World About Aliens, Or We Will
A stunning Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) report on Prime Minister Medvedev’s [photo top left] agenda at the World Economic Forum (WEF) this week states that Russia will warn President Obama that the“time has come” for the world to know the truth about aliens, and if the United States won’t participate in the announcement, the Kremlin will do so on its own…..

Diplomacy MBTI
Hi everyone,
As of late, I have been studying the Myers' Briggs' personality type indicator, and find it very interesting. So I've decided to poll certain groups of people. If you don't know your type, take the test here. http://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test

I'm an INFP, and I suspect most of you here are some type of rational(analyst), or NT. Let me know what it is!
