Out of curiosity, where is the player from?

Talking about Chopin and rarely played piano concerti, I'd like to ask your opinions on Scriabin's concerto: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJ9fKazNnI4 !

Truly a masterpiece. And now for a lesser known piece in the musical world, Johann Nepomuk Hummel's Piano Concerto No.2 in A minor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYr7z1RYgaM Hummel studied with Mozart for two years when he was a boy, and was later one of the best pianists in Europe who rivaled Be...

When I saw the title of the thread, I figured it was something else and immediately thought I should share that Mozart. Curiously, I'm afraid I had never listened to it with due attention! I've recently listened to a couple of Hummel concerti (using the pandemic to listen to new composers, at times)...

I have watched the game more than played, and, given the uncertainty regarding the rulebook to be used, I'll dare start with F Moscow and see what happens.

I suppose you'll get much more of it if you or JMO or Kestas instal Vdip and Ru-server variants. Also we need posibility to select the language of interface and language-rooms, where you can create games between the chineese-speaking or russian-speaking players, etc. I really think it's a bad thing...

Enthusiastically fielding two veterans of South America's 2010 triumph, we're proud to announce Team Brazil!, to be composed of:

rdrivera2005 and stefanodangello (Captain?) on Full Press
JesusPetry on Public Press
and curupira on Gunboat

I am also unaware of any cheating that happened during the 2016 iteration of the tournament.

While not entirely sure how this changed the tournament's outcome, I recall vixol, from team Sweden, being spotted in more than one game in the finals!

There can be multiple teams from the same region, just as a fyi. Last time around we had two Great Lakes teams

I loved that we had team Great Lakes and team Greater Lakes

Oddly, this has happened to me (and to Jamiet99uk) in this game: http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=173773#gamePanel. Personally, as someone who has several times taken actions to keep someone else alive into the draw, I can't see why such a peaceful exiled government should not be recognized ...

As I'm afraid I've been saying way too often, though I rarely commented on the old forum, I do remember you, I watched some of the youtube videos and regrettably did not have the opportunity to play you, but would happily do so now, or in the following weeks. Welcome back! You're certainly a great a...

I'm more than interested to play, as long as phases are not too short! Have you created a game already? I'll log into vDip after years of absence and see if I can either find it or find you there!

Grazie, Gimix! Si scopriamo altri insulti che forse possa parlare così bene, sarà un piacere impararli da voi :) Benvenuti, Marco e YanksFan! Mi sorprende positivamente che siamo già riusciti a trovare cinque. Come non ho mai visto giochi in italiano, dopo dieci anni qua, ne possiamo presto iniziare...

cazzo... l'ho scoperto*, ovviamente.

Ciao! Sono brasiliano, ma mia famiglia, malgrado più di cent'anni fa, è venuta d'Italia, e ci sono molti fra noi che hanno imparato la lingua, studiato in Italia, etc. Sfortunatamente, non parlo italiano straordinariamente bene, nonostante sia stato riuscito a farmi capire con facilità nelle due vol...

Also, regarding tournaments... @Goldfinger, any chance we can have a 2020 World Cup? I'd be more than willing to help you set it, if assistance is needed.

I'm under the impression we're unable to fully elaborate on what makes us feel as if the new forum was a major blow to the sense of community there was before and precisely diagnose it. I agree it would be interested to know whether our overall changes made the site more friendly, specially towards ...

Throwing my two cents in, I do remember there were many instances of the forum being far from welcoming, and people being rude, especially towards women. Issues that should have been addressed and, well, in a way, were addressed. I have no clue about the reasons for the overall change in how it work...

@BobMcBob, the chaos game was very interesting! I love the thrill of being on the ropes with a single unit or something similar, and yet remaining around. Also, I happen to spectate the other one :) I have a few remarkable games myself... And it feels somewhat old to look at games you remember so we...

'They could have pushed for Liberal democracy then with a lot more success, but didn't want to.' Indeed, but I'm pretty confident not overthrowing Mossadegh could have been way more effective in terms of ensuring Iran would be a democracy/constitutional monarchy, and definitely would have denied Ira...
