Are countries assigned randomly?
New to this site here, so sorry if this is answered elsewhere that I didn't find. Are countries assigned randomly when a game starts? (I'm noticing in the Championship Belt Game Series that xorxes always plays Austria and captainmeme always plays France, but have not found any setting for choosing a country or assigning preferences or anything.)

Uber is kind of cool
So, I dont actually plan to spend money. But I downloaded this cool app called uber. I think its like, taxi cabs or toy cars or something. But they move. They wiggle around and travel places on this cool map that looks a little like real life. I watched this one car strolling down a highway. This is neat. How do I take over one of these cartoon car thingys

Hiliary rigged her nomination
Former interim DNC Chairwoman Donna Brazile has come out exposing the Clinton campaign of taking over the DNC prior to her getting the nomination as the party's candidate which gave Clinton the control over the party's finances, strategy and all the money raised.

Incomplete orders on the small preview map are a problem.
Not all orders (most notably support orders) are shown on the small preview map of a game and, especially in Gunboat, this is pretty problematic.

Former Trump friend Manafort has 3 different US passports under his own name and at least one under a fake name that's he's used to travel and possibly move money. The first to be indicted and a step up the ladder of Republican lies about what was happening during the election campaign.

Detailed rules for a game
I am in a game and one player has either held all his units or been absent for 7 consecutive phases (!)
Is there a way to see for the game I am in what the detailed set up is?

I stay in a dormitory and someone saw a mouse. Mice proliferates fastly. What should I do against the mouse( or mice)?

Leave them alone and tell the people responsible for things such as checking your heater, fixing burnt out lights, and knocking out pest infestations. They'll handle it.

Depends on the mouse. If it's just a field mouse who's got lost then catch him in a box or something and let him outside. They're dopey sods when they're out of their comfort zone.

If it's your bog standard house mouse kind of thing, a few traditional traps with bread as the bait will do the trick. They're not very bright.

Change the "ou" to an "i"... so it is Mice. Then change the "M" to an "N." Then it is somthing nice.
Alternatively... I don't know why folk were telling you to set yourself or the house on fire. Set the MOUSE on fire. Use a blowtorch or small tactical nuclear weapon.
StevenC. (1047 D(B))

Good point, dargorygel. Wouldn't want to eat a mouse unless it's cooked first.

Have you identified what type of mouse it is? Some species have an inbuilt function which allows you to change the DPI - lower it and the mouse should move slowly enough for you to catch it.

mice are supposedly infested with ticks this time of year so be sure to check all of your....usual places for the little bloodsucking disease carriers before bed tonight.
taylor4 (261 D)

Tick bites are on a par with rabies.
Field Mice or shrews (or deer) carry smaller, infectious tick.
-- About the size of the head of a pin, infectious ticks are dormant in extreme high heat, but can overwinter; jumping from low shrubs and plants in the woods - or on any Lawn, they bite into any moving live body and deal with blood like mosquitoes do.
The larger Dog Tick may or may not carry Lyme Disease.
Th e bite of the Lyme Disease tick shows up as a red ring surrounding a red bug bite on your skin. At this point, see a doctor [who should be the only one to remove the insect from your epidermis.
Otherwise, you can wind up with brain disease and feeble limbs.

Axis & Allies general discussion thread
See title. I started playing it about a month ago. It's quite fun and a very different challenge from Diplomacy. I'm still getting my head wrapped around the editions, but I believe my group plays the "Classic" version (Spring 1942 start and there are no artillery, destroyers, etc.)

A friend and I are also working on a "present-day" version.
