Question: Is the Imperial Senate trying to stile voters?
In a recent gallup poll, surveys discovered voters are apathetic about the upcoming elections. "I dont think we ever imagined it would come down to Jar Jar or Emperor Palpatine as our only options".

Ohio State is a solid lock to get upset today
Vegas has them as +10 favorites vs Wisconsin in Madison. Ohio State hasnt played anyone worth a crap yet. I look for a low scoring game, Wisconsin wins 17-13.

Would anyone be interested in a Diplomacy Stream?
I recently got the version of Diplomacy published by Paradox Interactive (the studio that made Europa Universalis and similar games) working on my pc. I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in watching me stream a game or two vs the AI at some point (with commentary)?

Why no messages setting option?
Why is aviable the no messages setting? I think is against the essence of the game, that's diplomacy. Nevertheless this option is very common. I think Diplomacy without diplomacy is like basketball without basket (or ball if you prefer). What do you think about it?

Question of Electoral Ethics
For the district where I'm registered to vote, the US representative seat is only being sought by one person. By Oklahoma state statute, unopposed candidates don't even appear on the ballot, nor is there the opportunity to write-in a candidate. Do you think the name of unopposed candidates should be printed on the ballot?

"Becaus of Obama,. Iraq has fallen into perpetual war, along with Afghanistan, where at the end of Bush's Presideincy Iraq was imperfect, but stable, and heading in the right direction"
To be fair, Obama's hands were tied. He was bound to a treaty Bush signed.

brainbomb - a DECENT human being would want to remove the cause of the refugee crisis, asshole.

I have never told you my opinoin on whether or not we accept refugees --- you, intypicall asshole fashion, have made an incorrect assumtiom.

But applying YOUR ideology, if you had a house fire, you would wish the fire department to stand by and watch your house burn down, and then offer you a room in your neighbors basement instead of saving your house.

The Democrat policy is reprehensible and vulgar.

The US has Sudanese refugees, and refugees from a litany of other African-Middle Eastern coubtries: Somolia, Iran, Afghanistan. Why draw the line on Syria

A lot of people support Trump. There could be several reasons for low polling data (Bradley Effect or the methodology of the polls).

One indicator, in my mind, is yard signs + rally size. I have yet to see a Clinton yard sign and there is no question that Trump rallies are massive (far surpassing anything Clinton can do).

You do know that there have been numerous examples of people being paid to go to Clinton events, right? There have been 0 (that I know of) people who have been paid to go to a 20-30k Trump rally.

I was almost certain that the people protesting outside of Trump rallies, and the people kicked out of them were paid by trump to draw attention to his rallies. convenient he talks about how the inner cities are in terrible shape, and cancelled his only event that so far went to an inner city (Chicago)

Full Press Explanation
I searched the rules and the faq. I may be dense. I cannot find an explanation of what full press means. Also, is it illegal to send a PM to one of the players in a game if the players are not anonymous? For example, if I see the deadline ticking down and my ally hasn't put in orders, may I send her a PM to alert her that she might miss the turn?

Unranked games have counted towards GR
Hey just wanted you guys to know that GR has been broken for a while now, with unranked games being counted towards GR since it's been integrated.

Do not worry, I've already contacted the mods, and they are working feverishly to fix the problem and it should be fixed by the next GR update, but I felt that all of you should know. Hold on one second while I get my proof for this.
