Message notifications from finished games
Hey, sorry if this has been suggested before, but it'd be nice if you also got notifications about messages posted in games that have finished - it's nice to chat about the outcome of the game sometimes, and it doesn't seem to be the done thing to post AARs in the forum here. Any thoughts?

Why My Country's Flag is Better Than Yours
In which we inanely state which country's flag we revere and why it's better than the totally mundane flags of other nations.

Alot of the flags use the same colors just in a different order can get confusing.
Love the Welsh flag the dragon is different.Also Zimbabwe's is colorful.

I may be biased, but I think Canada's got a pretty awesome flag. It's bright, easily recognizable, symbolic, symetrical, and not just a couple stripes. It represents our nature and our oceans while still being easy to draw.
Wales is not a country, so it doesn't count in this list. :P
(And yes, I realize the argument that it is)
Stukus (2126 D)
28 Apr 10 UTC
I guess I like Ukraine's too. Golden fields of grain beneath the blue sky. Instantly recognizable once you know about it.

Wiki says the Canada flag was tested under high wind conditions to verify that the leaf was not blurry. Who knew flag design was so high tech?

The Brazilian flag is just impossible to draw exactly right without copying. The blue circle with stars is supposed to reproduce the sky at the day of the Proclamation of the Republic!
JesusPetry (258 D)

Of course it reproduces the *night* of that day (Nov 15, 1889).

When aren't the English trampling on it?

Here's an interesting breakdown of flags of the world. Some of the comments are pretty funny:

I personally prefer the simpler flags with colors that don't clash: Switzerland, Japan, Finland, Argentina...

I have to say that it is kind of sad for me to see that there is an AK-47 on the flag. Africa is such a war torn place. =(
krellin (80 DX)
28 Apr 10 UTC
An AK...a hoe (do they farm there? I thought the Warlords just waited for the next UN shipment and stole it...)...and a book. Why do I think this was some sort of demented practical joke. Agree with jman...sad place. Sadder still that the entire world will rise up and "defend" other parts of the world with overt military force (and no, NOT just the US), but we let Africa die. Hell, there's plenty of resources to steal there! I just don't get it!
We've had troops in Liberia (twice), Somalia, Zaire in the past 20 years or so.... But for the most part, yeah....

I liked the old Soviet Flag, mainly because it, rather than the Stars and Stripes, is the reason the Union Flag wasn't replaced by a swastika.

Not only does the flag tell a little bit our our state's history and is beautiful in its' simplicity, but it doubles as a great advertisement for tourists! =]

Maximum sized convoy
In the DATC tests, the webDiplomacy specific test wD.Test.1 says "Testing the maximum sized convoy for this map.": http://webdiplomacy.net/datc.php#section9
That convoy is 13 fleets long, however it is possible to make a convoy 16 fleets long.
So, is the metric for defining "maximum" something other than the number of fleets or it isn't really the maximum one?

This was the last major game I finished, and it was a doozy for some time. I played Italy, and I only got three builds over 7 years, and I only obtained Tunis on the final turn! Are there any diplomatic or tatical possibilities I overlooked over the course of the game?

What A Piece Of Work Is Man- Life, Death, Humanity, Idenity, and Abortion
The Ethics class I am taking has come to this subject. However, before taking on the issue, I feel something must be set aside and something that is far too often overlooked must be examined. we should, I believe, put aside religious views, at least to start, and we absolutely MUST define WHAT IS A HUMAN LIFE AND IDENTIFIED ENTITY? Far too often the subject is discussed with the subject being referred to as "the unborn child," already ascribing it human status. Is it?
