GoT Variant?
I recently started watching Game of Thrones, and as you can imagine it reminded me of this wretched game quite a bit. Has anyone thought of making a variant based on Westeros? Does one already exist?

Bernie Sanders kicked out of hippie commune for laziness
http://freebeacon.com/politics/bernie-sanders-asked-leave-hippie-commune/

Raises the question in my mind of what will be done (if anything) with people who refuse to work in the socialist society Bernie and his supporters wish to impose. Forced labor camps? Expulsion from the country? Revocation of their EBT card and Section 8 subsidies? Or nothing?

The Trump Effect
Recently I've been hearing several left leaning souls start talking about the likelihood of them voting Trump now that the Bern has been all but extinguished. What I am curious about is why. What is it about Trump that makes him the lesser of two evils?

Just a basic question!
What does voting to 'Cancel' mean? what do you cancel when you vote for it?
And, how does Pause work? when you pause, how do you resume the game? is it paused for a specific amount of time or do you vote to un-pause later?

First Time Prom.
Help me WebDip, you're my only hope.

Seriously, though, I am a male junior, and found out today that the person on my mind has me on hers. Prom is in 2 weeks. I have not asked her, and fear that the window has shut on this opportunity. Even if I did go (all my buddies want me to go) I would have no idea what to do, what to say, or where to go.

Modern Diplomacy Game with 5 teams
Hello guys, I´m intending to do a Modern Diplomacy Game with 5 teams. 10 players, but without any communications inside de game. The only way to communication is talking to this real person by email, whatsapp, etc.
But to have equation, balance, one should have just another guy in his team. Not a 3 person team. This will work? ANyone want to participate?

I reckon all random. It'll be fun trying to figure who the teams are. I could imagine supporting an opponent to obfuscate the issue too. My previous proposal for winning was "I would say you win if a team member solos. Otherwise the sum of centres for each team determines the ranking."
JEccles (421 D)
04 Mar 16 UTC
So is the unranked or a buy in? And how much will the buy in be?
Petehead (100 D)
04 Mar 16 UTC
Also whoever sets up the game, can you send the game name and password via PM to each of us?
I agree that it will be fun trying to work out who is with who - but that will be awesome!
I think that the Sum-of-Centres will be the best way of judging the games outcome.
I think it should be a small buy in - that way it doesnt set everyone back by much, but which still has a small pot of gold for the winner[s]

I actually think it should be unranked, because having actual points in play will mess up the incentives. We can't be having rivalries within teams.

It's OK for me. Just email the mods I guess...
JEccles (421 D)
24 Mar 16 UTC
Yeah that's fine with me. Should we all vote pause or just let the mods do it?
Tantrum (4185 D(B))
24 Mar 16 UTC
I think if we started voting Pause after discussing it in the forum, it'd reveal who's who. Shield, just go ahead and ask the mods I reckon...
shield (3929 D)
24 Mar 16 UTC
I don't think it will reveal anything. If we all start putting then up today / tomorrow there's plenty of time for others to see it. If we get a majority we can ask the mods to pause at that point
JEccles (421 D)
24 Mar 16 UTC
I would like to see some more people acknowledge it here in the forum before I vote pause so that it is more than just Shield, me and Tantrum voting at this point.
Tantrum (4185 D(B))
24 Mar 16 UTC
I agree with jeccles
biophil (773 D)
24 Mar 16 UTC
I'll vote pause sometime in the next day if we get a little more acknowledgement here.

Okay, I know this game is nowhere near over yet, but I am really liking this format. I wonder if there is a way that the Mods can set it up in the future where teammates can split winnings evenly between two people if one person solos. That way we can actually put some points on the line and don't always play unranked. Just a thought :)
thorfi (1023 D)
07 Apr 16 UTC
I believe the mods can re-allocate points manually - whether they will for this, I can't say, of course. Ask them. :-)

I wouldn't expect it (teams and team-points division) to end up as an option in game setup code - current dev/mod policy is to minimise game options, not to add more.
ghug (5068 D(B))
07 Apr 16 UTC
I'd suggest just keeping it unranked. If you wanted the mods to do anything official with it, we'd ask that you do it unranked anyway.
