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/

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.

Granted. But the degree in basket weaving gets you nowhere and you end up a "sanitation engineer" aka janitor.

I wish the female mannequins in the windows were anatomically correct.
saxophonedude (100 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but the trade-off is that you aren't anatomically correct anymore.

I wish that reply number 302 is the last post on this thread.
Draugnar (0 DX)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but then reply number 303 came along in order to grant it, superceding the request for #302 to be the last.

I wish reply #304 were the last reply in this thread.
ashleygirl (1131 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted...
saxophonedude (100 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but because you voided my wish by granting it, I shall void yours by doing the same.

I wish for a puppy.
killer135 (100 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
granted, but then it grows 50 feet and eats you and your family. i wish for a normal cat that wouldn't grow and eat me.
saxophonedude (100 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but my puppy eats it.

I wish for a littler of puppies.

I wish saxophonedude would stop posting to this thread.

Granted. The labor is long and painful, and because of the complication posed by your anatomy, you and they are in critical condition.

I wish that I had no reflection.

Granted. Every garbage can in your house is filled with dead puppies.

I wish for sushi, and it must be raw and dead.
rlumley (0 DX)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but God comes to you in a vision and tells you to become a vegetarian, and you have to constantly live in envy of those that can enjoy your delicious sushi.

I wish sushi weren't so disgusting.
Ursa (1617 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted. You die of eating too much sushi for its sheer deliciousness.

I wish this world was a better place.
Xapi (194 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted: You and your loved ones will loose all your possesions. They will be auctioned, and the proceedings will go to taking care of the ill and hungry in Africa, effectively reducing the suffering of at least 1000 people.

You and your loved ones will not recover from the economic blow, but you'd live scavenging food from the streets, wich is not that vad compared to starving in Africa, meaning the world is a slightly better place.

I wish the last person to post wins would end.
hellalt (70 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
granted but it will happen only after the last person on earth gets access to the internet, joins this community and posts at the relevant thread.
I wish I would be a Canadian beaver.
ava2790 (232 D(S))
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but you get a massive toothache from a wood splinter and die.

I wish I could be the person to win the Last Person To Post Wins thread.

Ursa (1617 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted. You are now the Übermensch, the last person on earth. You have destroyed the rest of humanity and your loved ones. But hey, you get to post the last post.

I wish I wasn't so f'ing wasted...
rlumley (0 DX)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but it's the most notable accomplishment you will ever achieve.

I wish FOX didn't cancel every good show that was ever on their network. (Arrested Development, Firefly, Dollhouse, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Family Guy, etc.)
rlumley (0 DX)
06 Jul 10 UTC
That was to ava, but I guess it works for Ursa too. lol.
ava2790 (232 D(S))
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but since you're the only one who likes those shows they end up cancelling them anyway thanks to public opinion.

I wish rlumley would diss the thread I used to advertise my live gunboat.
killer135 (100 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but then he gains control of the site and destroys every thread about live games. i wish I was doing better at Ava's live gunboat
ava2790 (232 D(S))
06 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but then the best you manage is a survive and you lose your points anyway since its WTA.
killer135 (100 D)
06 Jul 10 UTC
considering how I am doing right now i will take a survive

" I lied a lot in the gunboat"

This is why killer sucks at gunboat.
killer135 (100 D)

well with everybody complaining about Turkey won't draw in the forums i decided to complain about Turkey as well even though I was Turkey
rlumley (0 DX)

Am I the only one who's beginning to think this is a bannable offense?

Not only is he talking about a gunboat, it's an ongoing game in the forums, and he's revealing his identity in an anon game...

Granted, but since the world includes you they take over you as well. You are now a pile of bones.

I wish I was Doctor Who.

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?
