Equilibrium In World Diplomacy
Are there some statics showing how many times win each country in the World Diplomacy? It would be interesting, because I have seeing and I think some countris like China, Western Canada and Kenya have a lot of victories, but frozen antartica is the big looser.

What do you think? Do you think there are some countries with handicap?

Can I get a witness? Uh I mean a sub?
I don't know how this works. But I'm going to be out of pocket for a few days and don't want to make everyone else stop the games I'm in. I'm in two games - one as France (admittedly not doing so hot) and one as Austria, doing okay.

Anyone want to sub for me? Is that allowed? Question marks?

Something is Rotten In the State of Our Kids' Education...
So, I tutored my 4th grade kid today...and I have now lost any and all faith I might have had left in public shooling. This teacher of his had all sorts of lovely "creative" ways to "teach" grammar...my favorite: spell the word BACKWARDS if you're confused! THAT'LL unconfuse the poor kid, right? The poor guy couldn't spell a single two-syllable word, and what's worse...HE THOUGHT "P" WAS A VOWEL! P! P! WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN OUR EDUCATION SYSTEM... >:O

Any takers? I haven't tried WorldDip in a year, and it would be fun to try it with some engaged and reasonably experienced players.

So, I haven't been feeling well, and apparently neither had FK, so there's a serious backlog in the mod email. Sorry. We're looking into it.

In order:

Californication

and then maybe a tossup between Covert, Leverage, and White Collar. (Though when Mad Men returns, it'll likely take this slot.)
Ges (292 D)

"What the frell" is a great phrase. Up there with BSG's "fracking."

Speaking of TV shows, Qwikster is now dead! No more will images of Qwik being poured down a toaster cross my mind when I contemplate my Netflix queue . . .
Draugnar (0 DX)
10 Oct 11 UTC
I do like Whte Collar (and Royal Pains and Fairly Legal) as well, but was limiting myself to 5. And I consider shows in summer break to still be on the air. Cancelled shows, however, I didn't include or Chaos would get a nod as would Men of a Certain Age. Oh, and Harry's Law (based right here in Cincinnati) is actually better this season with an ongoing storyline of a single murder trial instead of a case of the week kind of thing. It's more like Damages meets Boston Legal this season and I'm enjoying it. House, on the other hand, has jumped the shark for me. He's been arrested and charged with crimes so many times, he would be under the jail by now.

@Ges - Do you know what show "frell" is from? The best Sci Fi show ever to be cancelled on Sci Fi (now Sy Fy) so they could air Tremors the Series (Yes, they made a TV series of that PoS series of movies).
Ges (292 D)
10 Oct 11 UTC
SyFy shows SF? I had no idea . . . I thought it was just the "bad CG monster of the week" channel. :)

Nope, I don't know what show "frell" is from.

Question about mod roles
Do the mods all have different roles (i.e. Are some dedicated to trnies, cheating, etc)? If so, is it possible (or would it be an improvement to) contact the specific mod you need rather than just adding to the current backlog?

Masters Tourny: Current and Future State
Something needs to happen with the Masters Tournament, be it cancellation or continuation, but without the information from TrustMe I don't see how it can be continued. So does anyone have a way to contact him?

Remember that this is a tournament, so participant or not, don't talk about the games themselves. We're only here to discuss what can be done for the whole.

Zero centers, but you get part of the draw??
In game ID=66470, Austria and Turkey agreed to defeat France and split a two-way WTA draw. Well , we took over France and pressed "draw". POOF, game over, but FRANCE gets 1/3 of the draw.

Huh? How can you get part of the draw with zero centers????
