Interesting paper I'm reading right now. Not completely done with it, but its methodology seems sound.

Pacific Northwest FTF

I've only ever played FTF with people who don't really care about the game and want to be done after a year, and I always feel a twinge of jealousy when I sew those people having fun playing in real life on that crappy coast across the country. This is just a post to see who might be interested in getting something set up on this side of the country. I'm in the Seattle area.

Conundrum

So the people who make the schedules at my school are kinda dumb. I signed up for both AP Micro/Macroeconomics and AP European History. Only one class of each is being offered. And they happen to be the same hour. So I need to drop one and pick up some other course. I really don't know, so what (preferably AP) course would you suggest for me to take instead of AP Micro/Macroeconomics (because there's no chance I'll drop Euro)?

So it's not on either coast, it's east of the Mississippi, it doesn't border great lakes, it's not in New England or West Virginia.

I am positive that I am sure on all of the questions.

02 Jul 15 UTC

So we rule out all coastals and those on the border, plus restrict it to the east, and we get - Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, New Hampshire

Is it in Kentucky?
Is it in Tennessee?

DeathLlama8 (514 )

Those both border the Mississippi but w/e

Espi (338 )

VashtaNeurotic, that means the Middle Colonies question was also redundant.

Is it in Kentucky? No
Is it in Tennessee? No

DeathLlama8 (514 )

VashtaNeurotic (2394 )

Getting Germany every single game

Hi everybody, I'd like to ask if anyone has experience with an account getting a certain country every single game. One of my friends who I've played in several games against has drawn Germany out of the pot every single time. We're onto the fifth time out of 5 games he's gotten Germany.

I'd put it up to chance but we've reached 5 sigma and are on our way to 6. Thoughts?
