Please reconsider. You've been an active member for 2 years (in 4 weeks from now) and it'd be a shame to see you stay.

Ivanka Trump perfume
Yeah, I hear that it's number 1 on Amazon. But are the orders real? Are individuals buying it, or are there bulk orders from the Russians coming in? -- orders that will never be delivered (and even if they were, it takes only pennies to make perfume in China).

What is the best way to refresh game pages?
a simple browser refresh has the added problem of reposting the last message you sent over and over

also what is the point of 5 minute games if it takes 3 minutes for the server to actually change the page contents after orders have been processed.

Reliability Rating?
Why do people make games with RR of like 25% or even 50%? Do you really want someone in a game who misses 75% of their moves, or even 50%? I don't know what the usual reliability ratings are of players, but I'd hope they are basically all greater than 80%.

Question for Trump Supporters
This is a serious question for those of you who are supporting Trump. Back in January 2016, Trump said, "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters." And it certainly looks that way from the outside. So I'm curious...what things would Trump to do lose your support?

If you're not a Trump supporter, please refrain from telling the Trump supporters who respond about why they are wrong.

I'm sure the majority will rejoice at my departure. But in case anyone cares, I am leaving this site because of HELLENIC RIOT. The circumstances are as follows: Civwarbuff created an invitational game. I was pleased to be asked to join. One of the players, Captainmeme, had personal issues a few turns in. He asked HR to babysit for him, for a couple of turns.

HR proceded to mock, insult, challenge and offend pretty much everyone, including Captainmeme's allies at the point he took over.

HR has since accepted, in conversation with me, that he didnt' care, and that he was happy to wreck the game.

HR's behaviour caused Civwarbuff to quit the game and be replaced out with that most toxic of cancerous cells, Valis.

The game from that point was a painful abortion despite the returning Captainmeme's apologies for HR's conduct.

Once the game ended I contacted HR to ask him to account for his awful conduct - given that he behaved as Captainmeme would not have done, whilst sitting Meme's account. HR responded with taunts and abuse unworthy of a webdip official.

I have had enough of dicks like HR and Valis having authority here. I'm gone. Bye.

Is this thread going to be silenced, or is it fine to attack members provided they are moderators?

Ogion, read again. HR subbed into the game. It was beyond Jamiet's control.

Also, HR wasn't what made that game nightmarish, it was the ~10 years of player elimination after a stalemate line was reached. DSS is a really horrible scoring system.

It really isn't, meme. Its not all that different from WTA. My behavior certainly wasn't impacted by the scoring system, and I'm the chief offender of wanting to narrow :p

SoS would not have had those eliminations because it would not have been in Demon's interests to let it happen - she would lose points for every supply center you gained.

The fact that DSS incentivises making your strongest opponents stronger is what makes draw-whittling at a stalemate a thing. SoS solves that problem.

This thread has been locked as it clearly targets a specific member.

Is beurocracy and greed holding back the technological pioneer dream?
In the movie Tomorrowland, the character by the name of Hugo said, "Have you ever wondered what would happen, if all the geniuses, the artists, the scientists, the smartest, most creative people in the world decided to actually change it? Where, where could they even do such a thing? They'd need a place free from politics and bureaucracy, distractions, greed - a secret place where they could build whatever they were crazy enough to imagine..." read below

ODC @ PDET 2017: Reserves Wanted
We need a few reserves to potentially take up positions where players cannot continue. Coming in as a reserve qualifies you for later rounds. Looking for reliable players, no NMRs and no surrendering.

Am I rebellious?
People often seem to think of me as rebelling against a status quo, but I see that differently. I do what I can to follow the path that I perceive to be right and this path happens to lead away from where most paths lead. I happen to cross boundaries, breaking unwritten rules as I go. Rebellion, to me, is about removing and destroying things you disagree with. I don't destroy, I just follow my own rules without seeking conflict. Discuss..
