Interstellar

I really liked this movie. Of course, the expository sections, wherein astronauts were reminded that light can't escape black holes, were goofy. But I thought it managed to treat ideas like the brevity of human life very effectively, and provocatively. I'm going to be thinking about the movie for a long time. What did you guys think of it?

Interest in Tournaments (no promises)

There hasn't been many non-gunboat (or player-sponsored) tournaments lately. This thread is to gauge the interest in the site of bringing back any of the following tournaments: The World Cup, The Masters, The Leagues. The GFDT is abge's thing, so I won't ask on that.

Protestor Facing 9 Counts of Assaulting Police for Fake Blood

http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/occupy-wall-street-protester-busted-nypd-boss-paint-job-article-1.2022996

What the article for whatever reason fails to mention is that he is apparently facing 225 years... for... fake blood on a guy in a suit... yeah, okay... that makes sense.

Seeking Cliche's : Powered Armor

Fellow Webdipstanians...perhaps you saw my earlier teaser thread..."Armor" Perhaps not. Anyway, instead of November write a novel in a month, I"m going to do December (10 days off around Christmas...best month for this plan). My novel -- a "Powered Armor" sci-fi schtick. Humorous take on the powered warrior fighting a pointless war.

Back again, need players

I used to be an active member, but haven't played in over a year. My brother is visiting for thanksgiving and wants to play. It would be great if we could get some players to join us. He played the board game many many years ago, so he's familiar with the game but is new to online play.

Thanks http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=151309

2014 Webdiplomacy Tournament Round 2

Looking for feedback. Ultimately there are two options: starting in a few weeks with the next round's games being setup Saturday, December 6, or waiting until after the holidays. I'm not sure how many are traveling, and I'd hate to see a mass-produced for the end of December, but I would also hate to delay the next round as this one is coming to a close. Thoughts?

ZULTAR!!!! Huzzah!! Huzzah and all that goodness. Thankful for an awesome site and all that jazz.

....and yeah....family, my awesome super daughters who make me proud every day; still-sexy wife, and a dog that only shits in my daughters room when she can't hold it. And an engineering job I love. And kettle chips. And clumping kitty litter. And ssoren....definitely ssoren...and Draugnar (may he abide in peace in the nether regions of the internets....) And Abge..whom we all know is still a secret mod. And Bo, because he's adorable, and will someday transform into an uber-Conservative. And pie, because pie is the best. The best. Right next to pi.

Krellin, because he still has hope for me even though the rest of us know I'm going to graduate and then retreat from the city and live in a tree house in the mountains for the rest of my life.

Otherwise, home. Because there's a dog who loves me to death and a cat that sleeps on my face, and parents who buy my food and actually turn on the air conditioner, and no roommate who loudly talks to himself in his sleep.

Also, Everclear. We can get the guy who hogs all the alcohol completely fucked up while we all drink 37% stuff and then steal it in two-liters and leave seven empty handles on his floor. When he wakes up blacked out, naked, and handcuffed to his bed and sees that, he'll think he had a damn good night, but we'll just party on without his sorry ass.

Oh no....*I* had the bad roommate freshman year....go to bed at 10 PM on a Friday night. WTF???!!? Ed. Ed Ball was his name. It became a regular thing ( a meme??) to walk down the hall past our room and shout out, "How 'bout a rousing game of Ed-ball!!" Mwaaa ha ha ha ha ha. I wish him well now after all these years....but god what a atrocious thing he was back then. (And then was before I became the belligerent schmuck you all know and love...)

I'm thankful that my life is so uncomplicated that, daily, I am at liberty to devote a small amount of time to playing a completely meaningless, yet engaging, online strategy game, and that I find it enjoyable enough to ignore the sophomoric ongoings in the forum to which said online game is inextricably linked.

I've just moved from Vietnam back to Europe, and realise that we have a lot to be thankful for here. Drinking water from taps. Free vaccinations for children. Free quality education. Coming from the uber-capitalistic kleptocracy that is Vietnam, it makes me realise even more that such public goods are a privilige worth fighting for.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMOVFvcNfvE I haven't seen these movies in years--I stopped being a fan about the time I joined this site...and gave myself this name, lol--but THAT looks pretty cool. A couple odd things in there, but hey...X-Wings and Tie Fighters again, instead of Whateverplanes from the prequels. Now J.J. Abrams just needs the Millennium Falcon to team up with the USS Enterprise! ;) Thoughts, sci-fi people, on the new Star Wars trailer?

Apple Question

Some of you are techy people, might you be able to help me out?

Apparently my Apple ID is locked because I don't know the answers to my security questions (well, I think I do, but they are apparently wrong) and my rescue email is disabled since I graduated from my high school. Since then, I get notification after notification informing me that I can't access the cloud and now my texts aren't sending. Is this all because of my ID security questions or is something else going on?

diplomacy dislodge question.

Yeah quick question.
Lets say you have countries A and B.
If they each have one piece attempting to move into an empty territory but during that turn, Country A gets dislodged, does the standoff still occur or does B move into its desired territory? Thanks in advance.
