What did you guys want to be when you grew up.
I'm not an adult yet, and I still am unsure about what job I want. I used the Holland personality codes, and I'm an IES, which suggests pharmacist, but that doesn't particularly appeal to me. Some other jobs it says I might be good at are physician, actuary, and training manager. Of those, actuary and training manager look the most intersting. But this isn't just about me. What dod you guys want to be when you grew up?

Disband instead of retreat
My understanding of the rules of the game were that you were allowed to simply disband a unit instead of retreating it. Is this also true of webdiplomacy? When the retreat round comes will my pull down menu offer a disband option?

Anyone live within a few hours of Gainsville, FL?
If you are interested in a Face-to-Face game, there is an avid Dip player who wants to try to organize sme ftf games in FL. I personally live a few hours away, but we find the 3-4 other players we need, it'd be worth trying to organize a game. write inside if you want to play or live close enough.

I am so SICK of the Gaga Person!
She's an unoriginal hackjob with no talent except to gratify others through the basest of all techniques (in other words, she'd make Hugh Hefner pretty happy) and for getting her name out with scandals that flood the Web and take away from the important news (Arizona's immigration law? BP Oil Spill? The Economy?)

How do you feel about this...person (and THIS pisses me off): http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/stopthepresses/220323/lady-gaga-photo-irks-beatles-fans/

Does anyone know why we have to option to have phases that are "1 days, 1 hours" or "2 days, 1 hours"? I'm just curious why we have that option?

Corrupt a Wish
The first person makes a positive wish, and the next person plays the role of the djinn granting the wish, and then turning it into a disaster. The second person then makes the next wish, and the cycle repeats itself.

Example:

1st Person: "I wish for world peace."

2nd Person: "Granted! All the peoples of the world lay down their weapons, get together to sing "Kumbaya," and have a bottle of coke. Freedom, peace, and happiness spreads to all nations.

Not long after, a gigantic asteroid smashes into Earth, causing the extinction of all humanity."

OK, let's do it!

I wish for eternal youth and immortality.

I wish the moron who tried to kill me was tied to some railroad tracks with an oncoming train.
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC

04 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but you escape to the exact moment of your death.

I wish I could understand women
TheGhostmaker (1545 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but then you gain too great a conscience to enjoy looking at the girl next door and her mother.

I wish I could actually drag myself away to sleep...
Draugnar (0 DX)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but you can never respond because you are asleep.

I wish I could appreciate the feminine form again
rayNimagi (375 D)

A'holes leaving the game?
I just had a game where a person left the game for no apparent reason other than it looked like they may not win. This really throws off a game. First, how and why can a person do this? Second, is there a way to flag them or block them from games so they can't keep doing it to you?

Facebook diplomacy - any devs out there?
Hey, I'm a mod on the facebook app for diplomacy, but the person who set me up (and presumably has higher-level access) has gone incommunicado.

There are some problems with the forum and profiles and I wonder if the database needs a clear-out. Can anyone over here work on the facebook app, or is it totally stranded now?
