Is it possible to change your profile name?
I'm just wondering, I realize having my name on the internet isn't the best idea but if it something that needs to be added to the site software I guess I'm fine.

Zero the scope
Are you a rifleman? I recently decided to get into the hobby of shooting, problem is, my scope isn't zero, so I'm not getting any luck. Any tips on how to zero a scope effectively and cost effective? Thanks!

Yo. I've been semi-retired for a while now, but I wanna play some games. One will be strictly highest GR, and the second will be anyone, witH preference to people who seem fun. Both will be semi-anon, WTA, full press. 36 or 48 hours, full press, so state your preference in the signups.

Blimey, they make some fine TV that I can enjoy while sitting on the old chesterfield, eh? Nothing like a spot of good British telly, some tea and scones with clotted cream and jam to pass an afternoon with.
The Clash was cool "London Calling" & "Should I Stay or Should I Go" are my favorites.

Interesting you should use the word Britons because they are a distinct group within the British Isles, most people who live in England are a result of foreign invasion and immigration. I am from Nordic/Viking descent myself

They're alright I guess, they're far more welcoming to immigrants than some other European countries, I can tell you that.
And some of their stereotypes I have learned to live with *sips tea*

NFL Pick 'em Week 8: Arriving at the Midway Point...
And so we come to mid-season, with the Cowboys, Chargers, Cardinals and Broncos riding high, the Saints and Bears both plummeting to earth, and a bunch of teams stuck in the middle. We kick off the week tonight with a Thursday match which should actually be good for a change, the Chargers and Broncos in a clash for the lead in the AFC West. The Lions and Falcons play in London, Bengals/Ravens, Panthers/Seahawks...pick 'em!

Autumn Disbands, Fast Retreats
New players take heed: Sometimes is is advantageous to disband dislodged units in Autumn. You can rebuild them where they may be more useful. This is particularly useful in the Modern Diplomacy map where all SCs are considered home SCs.

Picking order or purely random
I was wondering if there is a mechanism, by which players are selected for certain powers. I got 4x times Turkey and 3x times Austria and i joined the game 3rd to last. I am also new here and there are other players who had less points when they joined. An explanation would be helpful, because Í do not believe in bad luck here.

Of Wars and War Crimes
http://news.yahoo.com/exhibition-of-syria-torture-photos-shows--depravity--of-assad-regime-220711714.html With all the talk concerning whether Israel and/or Hamas should/will face war crimes (I think there's a case to be made both Netanyahu AND Hamas leadership should face charges), we have here what's being called the "smoking gun" for Assad's actions. But does the threat of a warm crimes charge really mean anything? If not, how can it be made to "mean" more?

A new cold war with Russia
Why is everybody being so hysterical about a new cold war with Russia? I remember the last one as being relatively quiet, stable and resulting in a colossal and bloodless victory for the west taking form in the '89-'92 period. Wouldn't a second one teach them a lesson about who's boss?
