We need another replacement Argentina after the previous two Argentinas have both been banned. The position appears weak but has great potential if you play your cards right:

Odd Question
Generally to the mod/admin .. is there any specific reason other than general humility that there is no public record of banned players? Whenever I'm looking for games to join through a CD, some of the best games are from banned players, and if there were a way to find a newly banned player without hearing about it or seeing it would probably salvage a lot of wrecked games.

Enough trivial topics, time for serious talk
In LotR: Fellowship, at the Counsel of Elrond, Frodo takes the responsibility of bearing the Ring. In rewatching the film this past weekend, I got the distinct impression this may have been due to the Ring already "poisoning" Frodo a little bit so that he was the Ring's choice of bearer. When I checked the book, it doesn't read like that explicitly, but I think that interpretation may still exist. Thoughts?

Epic World Game?
Hey, I tried to get an epic world game together called: gameID=106273. I've only got three guys up for it. I was wondering either if you'd like to join that game or could give me suggestions of a new game I could make that you would be happy to join. Bear in mind it has to be world and with a pot size of a minimum of 1700 D, ppsc, phase length of at least one day, to start after Christmas. Besides that I'm not bothered. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This could be really epic.

All The Words Are Said...
The emotion, predictably, as it inevitably must, has drained. Tears, where shed, have long since dried up, save for the occasional random drop. The absolute resolve that we must do something *NOW*...displaced once again by the mundane...

Life as we know it, sooner than I expected...returns, and the atrocity will soon be just another fading memory.

I told you you would soon forget your fervor for gun control. You've all had your say, and now instead of continuing to fight for what you believe...we will talk about Tolkien...and other crap and the pending tax hikes.

If posting on a nerd forum is "fighting for what you believe", you should at least do it sober, mang.

I there someone here that isn't sober?

Celticfox...I'm really not even expecting people to continue fighting on these forums...but there were a lot of people with very passionate and angry arguments about a lot of things. So I guess MY CHALLENGE is to those...and only they will know if they accept and follow through with the challenge...DO SOMETHING!

If you think guns should be banned, I truly hope you MAN UP (a favorite phrase around here) and go join the Brady Campaign against guns...contribute, make call, write a real paper and pen letter to your rep.

If you think we need loser gun laws and more carry permits...then join the NRA or whomever, contribute,make a call, write a real pen and paper letter to your rep.

Sadly, what will happen, what I predict, is that most of the bluster and venom was just that...and in truth, and those that wrote with absolute conviction that something *must* be done....will do nothing.

THAT is the point of this post...to actually prod a few hearts and encourage people to stop spewing words...and convert energy into action.

Believe it or not...I'm trying to be a force for good with this post - and I'll let you decide what is good for you...I offer no opinion...I just want people to ENGAGE and ACT.

Celticfox (100 D(B))
18 Dec 12 UTC
Really I think you are the last person that's going to get people to actually go do something. No offense intended but the people who are motivated to do something on the forum probably already have you on ignore or just ignore the things you say out right.

Oh and I do think there are people on this forum that are going to do something. They just may not preach to everyone about it.

Krellin, just so you know, I have written to my local congresspeople and volunteered for multiple political non-profits. Just because I've stopped arguing with the people here because I'm tired of the nonsense being spewed and the anger from both sides. Please don't make assumptions without proper evidence. It makes you come off as a jackass even when you *are* trying to be a decent guy.

I can't even tell you how many letters I've written to Congressmen. I don't know why I keep doing it. Their canned response always misses the mark of my topic. But I keep doing it. One day one of them will get through, I tell myself.

AT Celtic -- fine...if I'm the last person to motivate someone, then shame on me. But I had a moment of clarity and thought I would try to do something good. Sue me.

But how about this...if you think what I suggest is a good idea, DO IT instead of castigating me for suggesting you do something good. I think you are a big girl...determine on your own whether or not my suggestion is a good idea of not and follow YOUR conscience, not my suggestion.

If you are so jaded and fucked up that you can recognize a good idea, but not do it because I recommended it...then the problem isn't me, my dear...it's YOU. That pretty much goes for anybody that wants to criticize me because of my suggestion here.

Bottom line a WHOLE lotta people mada WHOLE lotta passionate posts...so fucking do something about it! You all want to whine about 20+ kids getting killed and think your noble because you espoused your opinion? Fuck that.. DO something about it. But don't be stupid enough to do it because I suggested, or not do it because I suggested it. Do it because it's the right thing to do.

That's pretty much the lamest fucking excuse EVER...saying you aren't going to do the right thing because krellin suggested it. Get a fucking life.

Here...Celtic...I recommend you eat HEALTHY food and take all your shits on a toilet...I suppose now you are going to only eat junk food and take a dump on the kitchen floor?

BRAVO to Thucy! BRAVO to ghug! I'm honestly impressed with you, and I want to offer my thanks as a fellow citizen for your real contribution to trying to make a change. I know...I'm an asshole and my thanks don't count...but you get 'em anyway.
Wow, are there any threads on here that aren't ad hominem? :-P

Austria has a fleet in Greece and a fleet in the Aegean, and uses Greece s. Aegean -> Ionian. Italy has a fleet in the Ionian, and an army in Naples, and uses Ionian to convoy Naples -> Greece. What's the end result of this set of moves?
