The Masters Round 5
Emails are going out tonight, so check your inboxes in the morning. Let's have this round start in a timely manner :)

Also, those who volunteered to sub, just touch base with me. I have enough for this round, but I have this nagging feeling that I'm forgetting someone...

Why R U Yanks so hung up on race?
Race seems to come into everything you do.Evidence: the Zimmerman threads here. Why is the colour of a man's skin seem to be the most important to you all, rather than his character?

Democrats Hate Women?
There are a couple prominent Democrats in the news recently doing foul things towards women...and have been prominent Democrats in the past (4 examples to follow). The party line response? SILENCE. Funny, the White House openly speaks about all sorts of race issues...but on Sexual abuse by Democrats...silence. Do DEMOCRATS HATE WOMEN?

One last game?
In a fit of 'big headedness', I'm asking the community I've been playing Diplomacy with for some time now whether or not I should commit to an ultimate game before I leave this site. More info inside.

CACH - OK, this is my *Ofiicial Petition* to be a part of your final game. Despite my horrendous, offensive, often over-the-top idiotic behavior in the forums - a thing to which I fully and gigglefully confess my guilt - I am a *totally* different character when In-Game...in fact, I think that you will find that I enjoy the press, enjoy the strategy, and am not too bad at it.

I assert that I can, and will, be - ironic as it may sound - one that will give you a positive, favorably remembered farewell game.

And thus - my official petition. I would offer up as my personal references for said game Draugnar, Bo-sox, and...I don't Abge - all of whom I have been involved in what I consider decent, well-played games in which, at the very least, it can be attested that I am *not* the person found in the forums....

...I rest my case, and fall upon the fair and kind mercy of your madness.

@ krellin, persons with the sophisticated Liberal Philosophy & Culture
( of which it is clear that you have no understanding ) quietly dismiss the ranting you describe and display as the result of ignorance & pooor breeding & get on with their lives. They may occasionally attempt to "clue you in on life's capers".

The "chattering classes" who have adopted the "right to be offended" at the
"drop of a hat" are some benighted group of modern interventionists and have at best
an extremely tenuous connection with Liberalism.

The general ignorance of these distinctions amongst Conservatives is merely further confirmation of the hidebound ignorance of the "fundamentalist" Conservative with their simplistic & deluded ideology

I just want to clarify something... Making rosters is cool and kinda funny, but I won't be making one. I'm playing one last game and I'll hand pick the guys and gals who are on it. I'll send private invites and won't make a show of that. I really just mean to have one other fun game with people I've had a chance to chat with or play with.

More soon.

If you happen to pick me, can I know who else is playing before I accept?
Cachimbo (1181 D)

I'll keep that in mind Abge!

As it is, I would guess I still have 3 spots I would consider open on this game. Player's who've been selected will hear by PM once the roster is full.

Julien (2065 D)
09 Jul 13 UTC
Cachimbo, I'd like to play if you'd agree to it. Even if I treat games seriously, I also seek a friendly atmosphere, and the fact that most of us have issues of some sort in real life means that our common hobby should be about relax and fun.
And as a French, I have natural empathy towards Quebeckers!
Cachimbo (1181 D)
09 Jul 13 UTC
Taking good note of that Julien, especially of your natural empathy... might come in handy!

I'll still be looking at this thread for a week. I will then send invites during the following week. Game should begin towards the end of the month.

Thanks for manifesting interest to play with me.

Cachimbo (1181 D)
29 Jul 13 UTC
All right! Back from vacation. And this thing now needs a bump.

This game should begin in 10 days or so. 48h phases, buy-in is unimportant, and I'm thinking I'd rather have the game non-anon since I really just want one last game with enjoyable people, a bit like a F2F would be.

On the interested people list I have:
bo_sox
JMO
Sacred Digits
Abge
Achillies
Socrates
Julien
Stackelberg
Jamiet
Gen Lee
Mendax
Sbyvl

Krellin and Draug: I appreciate your interest but, as this is my last game here, I think I'd rather avoid playing people with whom it seems too natural for me to fall into bitter arguments.

Manslaughter
I didn't follow the Martin/Zimmerman case too closely (mostly because the media turned it into a politically-charged circus, as they do most everything they latch onto), and while the stand-your-ground law is plain stupid, he was not guilty of murder under the law. However, I don't understand why he wasn't guilty of manslaughter.
