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 only for a few minutes.
(my reasoning behind the un-screwupable wishes, is, what's the point in just wishing for something if it's just gonna be turned into the worst possible thing? if you end up beating the system, that just shows your knowledge of the english language, and it's twists and turns. to beat the system is to thoroughly think through a sentence, and construct it in such a way that it CAN'T be messed with. and THAT's the challenge. it's not hard to mess with someone's wish. it IS hard to mess with someone's ability to mess with a wish. :D)

I wish that The Rev(the drummer for Avenged Sevenfold) would come back from the dead(not as a zombie or any other monster), while retaining all of his ability as a drummer, and put on an exlusive show for myself and my friends-while retaining our abilities to see and hear-with the other band members of Avenged Sevenfold, M. Shadows, Synyster Gates, and Zacky Vengance, who have also retained all of their musical abilities, before any of us or them dies, or the world ends.

(hmm, i don't think i left anything out of that one...)
killer135 (100 D)
10 Jul 10 UTC
granted, but they play you a nice little show then eat you and your family. I wish i could make long messed up wishes
jwalters93 (288 D)
10 Jul 10 UTC
heh, that's fine with me.

Granted, but you no longer can speak or write/type/understand any inteligible languages.

I wish that every one else would start trying to beat the system.

just out of curiosity, who likes A7X?
largeham (149 D)
10 Jul 10 UTC
Haha, after A Little Piece of Heaven, I wouldn't be surprised :P

But then the wishes become so screwed up that they fuck with your mind, and you go crazy, killing everyone around you.

I wish Justin Bieber would actually go to North Korea, and stay there.
killer135 (100 D)

Granted, but they all get caught and sent to jail for attempting to beat the system

Granted, but everyone except you CDs.

I wish that no one will ever CD in any games I ever play.
jwalters93 (288 D)
10 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but you never find time to finish a game ever again, and you always go CD, and no one ever plays with you ever again.

I wish that i would get the PRS 25th Anniversary Dragon guitar.
(too tired to try beating the system right now....)
Granted, but it's broken.

I wish to be awesome.
Oh, wait, I am awesome.
I wish to be awesomer then.

The djinn soon gets tired of your whining and kills you.


I wish I could have the Ultimate Cup of Coffee.
jman777 (407 D)
11 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but in anticipation you do not wait long enough for it to cool and so you drink it and it burns your entire mouth, throat, and esophagus so that you can never taste again.

I wish I had an iPhone.
largeham (149 D)
11 Jul 10 UTC
But then Apple knows how you live, and you become another mindless slave/fan of Steve Jobs, are renamed Steve and take over the world in the name of Apple, dooming us all.

I wish Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek had a cat fight (not actual), covered in jelly and clad only in bikinis for me personally (and they want to, so no turning around and ganging up on me).
Granted, but right after it starts, they magically dissappear.

Granted, their jealous boyfriends however are not thrilled with the idea at all and come beat you up.

I wish I could open car sized portals from where I am to wherever I want without fail or error (no opening deep in the earth and being killed by magma/lava) and that I can control the length of time the portal is open so that it neither closes too soon injuring anyone nor is stuck open causing major weather problems.
BenGuin (248 D)
11 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but the the Evil Lord comes and kills you to get the portal... btw, the Evil Lord can bend time...

I wish that I am the Great Lord of All and nobody can stop me

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?
