Telephone numbers in a book
So for my book, I need a telephone number. Is there any way to make it look like a real number but still not risk actually putting someone else's number in the book? If not, what's the best/standard way to handle this? Just put down 10 numbers?

DSM V
the diagnostic and statistical manual, edition five, of the american psychiatric association, replaces the term "mental retardation" with "intellectual disability." Therefore, I submit, that krellin should no longer be allowed to use the term "fucktard" on this forum.

Do you guys never communicate?
I have about 1699 game messages in the 26 games I've played so far.
When I check other players, they seem to communicate much less then me. SplitDiplomat for example: 926 games and only 2826 messages.

We should get closer to the top with the next one although a couple of the great names will be missed even in this one.Last time the last one was ranked as 16th,this time it'll be 11 or 12,thanks to the "new entries".
All the players invited feel free to check in here as well.

So what is the pot going to be?
We didn't talk much about the bets because the game is about GR. I said to the invited it would be from 400 to 1000 and with 36 hours phases. I believe everyone would be fine with 1000 D bet but we'll see about it...
The game wont start before 16th of August as one player is available from that date only.
Oh,there was another one,before the two mentioned above (gameID=102550) , from "the top7 series".And another one before that one,that got canceled due to the Sarg's inability to enter orders having some troubles with the authority during the time the game was in progress...

I'll throw my name up if you need more players/replacements at any point.
Thanks "y",you are close (21st) but the interest is huge.
Maybe we could arrange a "modern" or "world" variant with the same criteria,you would be in for sure.If we have enough variants fans...

Thanks to Split for organizing this. Personally, I'm very flexible on the pot size (1000 would be good). Other than that, semi-anon, wta classic, obviously. Phase length also flexible. 1-2 days would be my preference.
Can we have a list of the players?

Assuming this is taken from the all time list, I'm 14th and I'll volunteer as a replacement, but if you get a full board, I'll start up a Top 20 game with any interested parties.

1. 2WL
2. y2k (assuming)

I'm near top 20 gunboat and have 500 potatoes to invest, I assume it's gunboat
I'll play your game 2wl assuming barn3tt does indeed fill out the first game. otherwise, i believe i will have the 7th spot in the first game (per split).
Thanks 2WL. Yes,all time. Lando is 1st under the line and 2nd is 2nd ! :)
The Czech (39951 D(S))
02 Aug 13 UTC
The other three games listed were 250, 250 and 200 point pots. Do we want to kep with that? As you know points aren't my thing so I really don't care. So far I've drawn Italy, Germany and Russia. Let's see what the fickle finger of fate has in store for me this time.
Yes,as I said - the points doesn't matter in this game. The participants are all for 1000 though. Those games were cheap but it was the last year. Ronaldo costed 94 milions and he's better then Bale but Bale costs 140 milions today :) That's the inflation my friend!
So as the points don't have value anymore we are wasting them like this and throwing arround:)
