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: http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=103915
Use this opportunity to say something in addition to what you've already said to the mod/admin team. If you don't have anything befitting to say, don't say anything at all.
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.

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?
You should of also mentioned that she got her job back after everything had been looked into. Though they should of looked into everything before they fired her in the first place.
That doesn't make much difference to me. It's not like they would have hired her back without either a.) a courtroom ordering them to, or b.) some form of public backlash. You are right, though.
It makes quite a big difference. The story in a nutshell is the lunch lady stole $100 worth of food and got the sack. The company then found out what she did with it and took pity on her. Very generous of them.
I'm all in favour of people helping out those in need, but it looks a hell of a lot more impressive when you help them by giving away your own time or stuff instead of nicking somebody elses. I could have given him a Mercedes if I could get away with stealing one.
If it meant keeping myself - or someone else - from going hungry and it was directly within my control, I'd do it. She certainly could have paid the company back but I'd have simply asked for that and left it alone rather than fire her in the first place.
Sites like that one are exactly why I included the word "directly" in my post. I have nothing against those sites, but if someone on the street is starving, I'm not going to donate to a website and hope it heads their way.
Couldn't find something legitimate to be outraged about today? She stole, so she was fired. When they found out why she stole, they rehired her. If anything, this is a happy story. What's all this fuss about?
"But you'd have no problem with robbing the local supermarket and giving it to said starving person?"
Nope. They should be giving it themselves. My uncle works with Meijer now and used to do that from his own stores in Fort Wayne. He'd give their extra produce to people that begged outside his store instead of the pantry 150 miles away.
And Abge, trust me, if I wanted to create a purposeful thread, I would have probably done something on Daniel Inouye, but I didn't, and now here we are.
And if I wanted to have something to be outraged at, I'd ask why this 11-year-old has a gun. I'd also point to the fact that the internet is a really crazy thing that doesn't really check your identity. Maybe his parents are just stupid ;)
I'd report her too. If every chick did that at a school at my company the losses would add up and I could possibly lose MY job because of their misplaced robin hood complexes
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 , 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.
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...
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?
You challenged me/I challenged myself to make as strong of a case for Italy as a "non-country" as you did for belgium here: http://webdiplomacy.net/forum.php?viewthread=957318#957318 (not that I feel your case was overly convincing friend :P)
Epic World Game?
