So, how do I contact a moderator?
There's an ongoing live gunboat I'm in with an alliance that is too damn effective. So, who do I PM? I don't think anyone should lose the points from this piece of crap game.

Well done to Tawz who just won our live game. Has anyone got 5 minutes to discuss this game. I don't want it to become a slanging match, rather a discussion.

Hey--if a bitter man and gold-digger woman can get married and divorce so soon, why deny Mr. Sulu his right go to Warp with someone he loves? ;) How do you feel about all of this? (And check our Jon Steart's Daily Show's talk about all of this, informative AND hilarious!)

Easing the end of a game - diplomatic euthanasia
How about several boxes one can click when down to 1 or 2 pieces, that automatically defaults moves to "hold" and "disband" and "defer build", which would move game more quickly for other players?

Draugnar - If I bring more than one gun, do I get tickets for friends and loved ones? Or is this Webdip players only?

As for Gold: Gold has outperformed all other investments in the last 5 years. It has intrinsic value; it is scarce, has many industrial uses, and of course always has been and always will be very popular in a jewelry application. Its scarcity lends itself to usage as a medium of exchange in a barter economy; it's impractical to trade 5000 cans of soup, not so much to trade 5 or 10 ounces of gold with equivalent value. I'm not an investment adviser with any government licenses, but my personal opinion is that gold and silver is the best investment right now (They have certainly hit a very stable price point the last few months) Extremely depressed California real estate is a close second option - if you can pay cash, you can buy a $100K townhouse and rent it out for $1200/month where I live. If I had an income right now I'd certainly be buying gold & silver instead of selling it. If you do invest in gold, DO NOT buy mining stocks, ETFs, or certificates. Insist on taking personal physical possession. You can buy gold and silver and have it shipped to your house from websites such as kitco.com and apmex.com.

Draugnar, I'm bringing along a nucleur missile, Anti-air gun, and a few Fighters and Bombers. All I had to do to get them was tell Russia, "Go Stalin" I even have a discount at Nukes-R-us if you ever need me to get some extras.

@Tolstoy - family and friends can come to, but their trailer in the mobile home train won't be quite as well armored and you have to bring food for them as well as the guns. And if they can't handle a gun, they need o have double food. If I'm putting my life on the line for them, they have to feed me or other wise please me. Ass, grass, or cash: nobody rides for free. Now hot 16-25 year old women need bring nothing (in fact, they shouldn't even bring any clothes). They get to ride in the tank with me. :-)

See, now that's the real downside of civilization crumbling. "Ass, grass, or cash: nobody rides for free." is so catchy. But "Ammo, food, or gas: nobody rides for free" just doesn't sound as good.

Sounding good, but how about food? Of course the other problem will be finding a custom bumper sticker manufacturer in post-apocalypse U.S.

Food is what the guns are for. Blow away the zombies and raid the abandoned convenience stores. Twinkies have a shelf life of about a thousand years.

@Draugnar With that tank your going need alot grain alcohol for fuel or other uses. So how about someone who knows how to brew(I can make decent ale and with alittle equipment I'm sure I can make a still).
Draugnar (0 DX)
09 Aug 10 UTC
The still sounds great. Also, see if you can develop a portable biodiesel manufacturer. We'll do a trip through Ohio's cornfields and get the source material.

Looks like we'll be making this a convoy with the tank as protection. Anyone here (besides The_Master_Diplofool) fly Apaches? I think we could get one of them for recon and defense.

Yeah, I don't get it. Why is the airforce taking all the air support from the army? I would have thought the army would keep control of CAS aircraft, and use them as they see fit, for obvious reasons. I know there are a few military men here, I would appreciate it if you could enlighten me.

Post war politics. The Army Air Corp than part of the Army was made a independent arm force by an act of Congress given the nukes and the lions share of the buget as a result. The Army was forbidden to have it own aircraft. Which made some sense, but Air Force in it's pursuit for planes that go faster and higher, forgot and neglected it's role of ground support. This was a real problem in Vietnam. High speed jets make very poor ground support aircraft. Thus the army saw a loophole in the helicopter and used it. Also they all so develped a single role aircraft for ground support, the A-10 Warthog. Perhaps one of the best ever ground support aircraft. The Air Force acted like a spoiled brat about the A-10 and the helicopters and went to Congress crying the Army has my toys. A compromise was the Army kept the heicopter and the Air Force got the A-10 it did not really want but was required use them. The Marines fared much better because they are intergrated with the Navy.
Draugnar (0 DX)
10 Aug 10 UTC
Marines fair better also because the navy is primarily interested in aircraft used at see (rescue helicopters and carrier based fighters) where as the Marines need craft that can provide ground support so they get the gunships, warthogs, and V/STOL aircraft desinged for those roles. IT's a good division that both branches feel is well balanced.

The Evil of Capitalism: How Capitalists Exploit
Ever since capitalism and meritocracy became the standard system of economics, exploitation has been committed by man against his fellow man. No system has undermined man’s humanity in the same manner by rewarding those who will exploit their brethren.

This Time On Philosophy Weekly: So Plato, Locke, & Rand Walk Into A Polity's Bar...
We've had a lot of talk on the site, recently, about the role of the State, whether it be how the State should be, it's relationship with the people, or otherwise.
So the question is simple--what is your ideal form of government, your idea of the perfect political theory? Do we have a social contract? What is the function of government? Is there a State of Nature? What are the merits of Government and Anarchism? The State of the State Adress--this time!
