Roman Legions vs. Mongol Hordes
To commemorate the 807th anniversary of the grand Quriltai which saw Temujin elected as Genghis Khan, I ask who would win a battle between a force of Mongols and a slightly larger force of Roman legions (for the sake of discussion, we will say from the late republic/early empire period) in a head-to-head matchup? Please discuss.

Is war between Russia and England more or less inevitable?
The Norway-StP corridor is very hard to DMZ. Perhaps conflict will always occur. I at least cannot think of a time in recent memory that they went the whole game without fighting (barring an early elimination of one or both).

Discouraging country based resigns thought...
Webdip uses a country weighting system where the more often you have been a country, the less a chance you have of being it again and vice versa. So how about use that to deal with people that abandon a game because they got a country they don't like?

Is it just because I'm in college or what?
Does anyone else have the experience that the time when gender issues and parity come most the fore is when a coed group of people goes partying together? Shit just happens and you have to make decisions based on that stuff more often than in normal life. At least I feel that way. Thoughts?

I keep forgetting that non-WTA games suck. In the end, it wouldn't have mattered if Germany and I managed to draw with Turkey, since we'd get the same number of points anyway. OK, it would have meant something for our statistics. But Germany was far too sensitive and didn't understand he had to hold StP at all costs. Oh well...

Actually I thought that was the reason you kept attacking me (Germany) I kept through you support in Belgium as a way of signalling we needed to develop a stalemate line in defense of the Turk, but you decided to take what you could......

I couldn't hold StP at all costs with you coming after my position in Edi. If we could have left that there I could have defended but you kept coming for me.....

Edi was mine by right. First, I needed a fleet in Brest, and second, I earned the entire England because I got him fair and square. I hoped you wouldn't panic, but you did. Well, never mind.

Hey, Zmaj, I wasnt the one who forgot it wasn;t WTA. I was playing by the terms of the game and I defend what I did. I threw you so much support and you kept coming for me. I had to assume you were coming for me in full. nothing you did ever signalled that you wanted a truce.

I don't understand why Turkey helped Russia into Rumania. Turkey had already shown aggression towards Russia, yet when I needed it most, Russia SUPPORTED Turkey into Rumania. Had he helped me, we might have held out a bit. *sigh*
fairleym (199 D)
16 Jul 12 UTC
That was a bit odd, maybe he thought if he showed Turkey some love he;d get left alone?
MichiganMan (5121 D)

I was thinking that too. I asked the guy, but he's not replied. I also wonder why Italy let Naples go in an effort to retake Venice. I realize that I started the fight, but he could have stopped Turkey from getting Naples, I could have retreated and tried to fight him. He even brought a fleet into the Adriatic to try to get it back. Seemed a bit too much in the face of the Turk's growth.

So has obiwanobiwan finally matured and can I take him off my mute list?
Obi need not answer. I won't see it. But does anyone else want to chime in with their opinion so I can decide if it is safe to take him off? I kind of miss his long winded posts, but he got so over the top with his youthful insistence he knew everything I had to mute him or kill him before his 21st birthday, and I thought the former was the better option.
