Is there anyway...
I could be un-banned? I've played on this site since 2007 and have very much enjoyed my time here. I got banned because one of my friends spelled his name wrong in the forum. Apparently this was seen as an act of disrespect to _The Moderators_. I never disrespected _The Moderators_.

Serious question......
....... if there was a training course on things such as personal development, self-awareness, self-confidence, public speaking, etc, etc what aspects of this (if any) would help you in your life ?
What things do you think would help people be more effective ?

Which dumbass thought we should call everyone who isn't white "People of Colour"?
1. Black isn't a colour.
2. White is all colours.
3. White people change colour when cold, ashamed, hot, sick, dead, and they're born pretty red. Black people stay black.
"People of colour" is probably the most offensive way to call black people, right before "nigger".

Hey, abge, the horsie terminology is chess. I find interesting the piece's name in other languages.

I'm still playing round 3, but I'm in the endgame, what about waiting a couple days?

foal = baby horse.
Yeah, puns are tough for English Second Language folks.

mar --> mare = a female horse
main --> mane = the hair down the back of a horse's neck
foul --> foal = baby horse

I'm sure someone will trot out others.
AlexNesta (239 D)

horse => hoarse = (of a person's voice) sounding rough and harsh, typically as the result of a sore throat or of shouting

I thought that you played it with the wrong colours, but it's okay.

Chart edited.
Maybe we did? I'm a latecomer, and maybe I don't understand how the color assignments are supposed to work. I thought 6:11 meant 6 was white and 11 was black.
FolliesOfSpain (113 D)
10 Dec 13 UTC
You played with the right colours. I first thought that you played with the wrong ones because you wrote 1-0 instead of 0-1.
Oh. I meant the winner was the person to whom the 1 was closer. So 1-0 means white won and 0-1 means black won?

Hello all
Its been a while. I'd like to play some quality gunboat games for old times sake. I'd like to be at least 101 point buy in. 24-36 hour phases so everyone has time to get moves in. etc. This is sort of an invitational so I'd like to get some good players to play against.

Why do people play Gunboat?
I'm not denouncing the game mode here. I was just wondering why people want to play Diplomacy without the negotiation aspect. To me, it seems to defeat the purpose of playing the game. I would be happy if someone could clarify this for me.

Why are there non anonymous games?
Since meta gaming is strictly prohibited and frowned upon I have to say I see no benefit to having non anonymous games. All it does is allow people to carry grudges or othe stuff from past games rather than playing the game at hand. Similarly, there seems to be no clear reason why usernames can't also change
