Nominations for The Greatest Musician/Musical Act of All-Time
To get away for awhile from fights over foreign fights and people being X'd out here (please don't smite me, Maniac!) we begin the follow-up to our Greatest Author of All-Time Tournament with the search for the Greatest Musician/Musical Act of All-Time! Regional groups this time, US/UK/Europe/World (unless someone has a better grouping plan.) Either way, once again, everyone gets 4 noms, and we'll start when we fill out our Bracket of 64, 16 per group. Go! :)

These are going to be very close matchups. At least none of my picks duel, but assuming we do the traditional 16 v. 17, 15 v. 18 etc... I may not see one or two go through.

New Pornographers are gonna destroy Kanye. Mostly because no place on the internet is complete without a couple of crotchety white people who hate rap, but also because the New Pornographers are awesome.

The Foo Fighters were easily the best concert I've attended. Considering they're against Pearl Jam, Journey, The Eagles, 30 Seconds to Mars, and others, that's saying a lot..

I said the best concert, not the best music. The Foo Fighters kicked ass. 30 Seconds to Mars was awesome (mostly because I was there illegally..) but there was something about Foo Fighters that was just awesome. The Eagles was fun, Journey was fun, but at least half the people at both of those were from eras prior to mine... Pearl Jam was awkward because it was my first concert. Also been to Cheap Trick, which sucked, the Blues Brothers, which was pretty cool, Taylor Swift (against my will...), and a few other local groups.

Concerts aren't as much about the music for me as the atmosphere. The four bands I listed are all better than the Foo Fighters are.

Journey is the most soulless craptastic band ever to exist.
Even if I concede that about Journey(which I don't)...30 Seconds to Mars.

I'm confused, on this site, there's spring and autumn. What happened to Winter?
When is the supply center gained?
Also, do I need a unit to phisycally exist in the supply center's country during the gain phase? Or perhaps it's enough that the unit passed there before?

New Proposed Feature
I was wondering if any of you coders out there can code a new feature that allows a player to repeat the previous phase's moves. This would be really useful when playing stalemate games that are drawn out by one player attempting to break through, hoping for an NMR or waiting for others to be taken out of the draw. It gets very boring sometimes to enter the same moves repeatedly and helps to avoid careless mistakes.

Is there anyone out here who actually thinks that Palin has (or ever had) anything relevant to say? If so, please explain to me why I am wrong to think she's got the intellect of a baked potato (although the latter probably tastes better when eaten).

Josunice tournament
I was wondering what are the current standings with the couple of games that recently finished... I was dead last before the solo, so I want to know if there is still hope of at least second place now that I have bounced back. I think josemurcs was winning by a lot, but with the latest results maybe he is no longer leading so easily?
