Name some 'regular' activities you enjoy doing on a daily basis.
I'm going through a lifestyle change (which is going well, by the way) and although I haven't been particularly bored so far, that's probably because I'm still 'recovering' from my old lifestyle. Since I'm sort of coincidentally 'cutting down' on things I enjoy with this change as well, I need some replacement and at the same time I'd love to hear what webdippers do to enjoy themselves.

I think this is a major problem. There needs to be a way to unstar threads you decide you don't like anymore without muting them.

The Favorite Author Tournament: The Round of 64
So after an, um, interesting first match that became a friendly because 1. Neither Shakespeare nor Vergil should be pitted against top foes in the first round and 2. Stephenie Meyer was an embarrassment and was going to get her butt kicked by Virginia Woolf anyway, we start the Round of 64 in proper here. All the matches will be posted in here, we'll move on every 24 hours, assuming my computer doesn't die (anyone know how to fix "'Documents.library-ms' is no longer working?) Anyway!

Today:

Ken Follett (whoever that is) vs. Alexandre Pushkin.

And the Russian poet, author of "Eugene Onegin" gets +1...

Pushkin: 1
Follett: 0

Going with Follett as well, though I prefer "World Without End" to most of his other work.
obiwanobiwan (248 D)
28 Apr 14 UTC
Because I could care less about spy fiction that isn't the movie version of James Bond...and I'm sure plenty of those films would make Ian Fleming flip in his grave.

Besides, "Eugene Onegin" isn't just a great epic, and an epic written in sonnets at that, but it inspired the opera version by Tchaikovsky and I love THAT.

So Follett wins 3-2 vs. Pushkin in a bit of an upset (any time you beat the "National Poet" of a nation with as rich a literary tradition as Russia, that's an upset.) :p

Today...one I've never heard of, and one I've never read--

Carl Banks (the former) vs. C.S. Lewis (the latter, sorry, my sister was a Narnia person, it just never appealed to me.)
mendax (321 D)
29 Apr 14 UTC
Lewis, I guess.

I'm not a massive fan of Lewis, but since I've no idea who Banks is he gets my vote anyway.

In the autors list we had an Ian Banks and a Carl Barks.

If this is supposed to be Carl Barks and not Carl Banks (former linebacker) ... noone can deny the influence of the creator of Scrooge McDuck, the Beagle boys, Gyro Gearloose and many more on children, grownups and society all over the world

##Vote Barks

Lewis.
WardenDresden (239 D(B))
29 Apr 14 UTC
The Screwtape letters are too funny not to vote for on this one, and honestly, I think Narnia has been more influential for children than Mr. McDuck and Donald Duck. I don't think there's any denying that Barks has earned his place among comic creators, but it's really a different medium than this tournament if you ask me anyways.

##vote Lewis

Fleet at Poland retreat to Ukraine?
gameID=138998

Okay, how on earth did Quebec's fleet at Poland manage to retreat to Ukraine despite not sharing a coastal border? Is this a bug or an obscure quirk of the World map? The variant homepage says nothing about any Pol-Ukr canal.

Yes...because when I think "legitimate democratic proceedings," the first thing *I* think of is a "makeshift vote"...and nearly 90% in favor, on such a divisive issue? You couldn't get 90% of people to agree what color the sky is! Will the West act NOW? (No. But let's chat, shall we?)

I've been thinking of modifications to the ghostrating system, is there anywhere with a vast amount of diplomacy game data I can mine to test out the modifications? It doen't need to be from this site but I would prefer if it had data on individual turns and not just win/lose/draw/survive.
