Truck Update

Just wanted to thank everyone for their advice on trucks. I bought a 2000 Ranger a little over a week ago and I love it! As thanks, here's a video of a kid being really stupid with his ranger: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEfnfOfbsi4

dubmdell gunboat invitational

I would like seven games with the same six players either in series or simultaneous. With permission (and help) from a mod, we would each play as each nation exactly once. Buy in will be 44

, 36-48hr, WTA. PM or post here if interested. Note: if simultaneous, you must have 308

at least before joining as this is the minimum to play 7 games at 44

each.

Happy to play - though I am away next week and could not start until June 30. If that is ok, please put me down. If not, I completely understand.

SpeakerToAliens (147 )

I'd be interested in joining, but I only have 45

in total. I'll watch the games with interest.

dubmdell (556 )
20 Jun 12 UTC

Brian, I have no qualms waiting. Ten days isn't so much.

Speaker, any chance you'll have the requisite 308

by June 30th?

I don't currently have enough points but, if a game ends or if you're willing to play lower stakes, I'd really like to join.
Been looking to do something like this for a while.

xorxes (31128 )

I'd like to play.

jcbryan97 (134 )

Yonni & STA: Perhaps we can get second series going with a 5 pt buy in. I'd be up for that.

Yonni (136 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

K, dumb, if you don't mind, could we try recruiting via this thread. Just grab the ppl who don't have the points?

2ndWhiteLine (2606 )

I'll get in on this.

Trooth (561 )

I would like in. 36/48 44x7 points.

dubmdell (556 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

Okay, so let's do two of these. One a 39

buy in, 273

for the whole tourney; and one 5

buy in, 35

for the tourney.

jcbryan97 (134 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

And when I get enough points I'd like to start a 7/5040 tournament where seven players rotate so that every possible combination is played. Of course these games would need to be played simultaneously.

I'll do the 39 point, but if someone asks to get in that, you can bump me to the other.

dubmdell (556 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

Brian, if a seventh wishes to join the 39

tourney, would you mind bumping tithe 5

?

Glad to have you aboard 2WL

Yonni (136 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

If you would like even country assignments, one person from each group can make country assignments for the other one and then send the request to the mods.

Gobbledydook (1389 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

lol I'll play the 5

one again. My gunboat invitational is ending.

dubmdell (556 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

Good idea, Yonni. May I take that as a volunteering? ;)
We'll also need someone from the 39

group to make the 5

country assignments.

@dubmdell: Speaker, any chance you'll have the requisite 308

None. Sorry. I don't remember ever having more than 120

in the last 3 years.

@jcbryan97: Perhaps we can get second series going with a 5 pt buy i
Excellent Idea. I'm in.

Tasnica (3366 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

Oh hey, this sounds like fun! And also a great way for me to either get halfway competent at gunboat, or add 7 Defeats to my record.

I'd slightly prefer the 39 point games (and 48 hours, but meh). Otherwise, 5 is fine.

redhouse1938 (429 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

@Tas, with your silver tongue you're selling yourself short playing gunboat! ;-)

Yonni (136 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

Yeah. I'll volunteer for it from our group. My vote is for 48hrs. But I could do 36 if that's what ppl want in my group.

Lando Calrissian (100 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

Sign me up for the second series please. 36 hours?

JesusPetry (258 )
21 Jun 12 UTC

I'd join any of them.

Concern mod intervention pauses

If a player has requested a pause and the only hold out has failed to post a message or moves (and so appears near NMR), will the mods force pause so that neither the pause-request player nor the near-NMR-hold-out player NMR? I do not wish to waste their time with a request they'll deny.

Egypt elects Muslim Brotherhood member Mohammad Morsi as President

The president-elect wants "closer relationships with Iran." What does the forum make of this? Does it imply that Egypt's relationship with Israel will be less close, or is it simply a part of community-building in the muslim world? Is the election of Morsi a positive or negative development for Egypt? Discuss.

Warm Colors vs. Cool Colors.

The Idea behind the game is that it begins with 2 alliances.Russia, France and Italy start as the Cool Colors. Turkey, Austria and England begin as the Warm Colors. Germany is the swing, and can pick either side or be in it for themselves. The game is global chat and I'd like to get some mischief players in on this. Its a PPSC, and 2 days per phase.

...what?

gameID=92614

Italy CD'd for no reason. Russia and I had voted for a draw most of the game. England would only move a few units each turn and not vote for a draw, even though Russia had a clear advantage. Around 2012 Russia withdraws a draw vote, then England moves to the North. So *both England and Russia* suddenly vote for a draw. ???
