The Fermi Paradox -- Where Are All The Aliens?
1. Estimates of stars with habitable planets range into the high billions.
2. The Sun is a typical star and there is a high probability that many other stars will have Earth-like planets, some of which have already been observed.
3. If Earth is typical, other Earth-like planets should have developed intelligent life.
4. Based on this, there should be lots of opportunities for life in the Milky Way galaxy. Where are all the aliens?

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.

Can you request..
NMR's to be removed if they were due to webdip server outage. I know it seems like a crazy thing to request but reputation does seem to matter quite a bit on here.

Facts based discussion on the Pyramids
Nobody denies that the pyramids exist. Now, however, it has emerged that one of the Republican party's leading candidates to run for president believes that the pyramids were built for storing grain. I know Diplomacy players are among the smartest people in the world. So I ask you – do the math. Show how the pyramids were not tombs, but granaries.

What is Your One Superpower?
Simple question, if you could have one superpower what would it be (cliche I know), and please get creative. One restriction though, your power can not give you other powers, that's cheating. With that being said, let's begin.

Espi (338 D)
05 Nov 15 UTC
Espi is short for Espiculeas, and is much easier to say. Espiculeas was a mix of greek and latin I made up one day, and I liked how it sounded so I stuck with it.

05 Nov 15 UTC
You're so good with words, Espi.
wjessop (100 DX)

I like the sound of Espiculeas.
Espi (338 D)
05 Nov 15 UTC
Am I really wj? The question is, how do you think Espiculeas is pronounced? I recently dug up when I first made the name up, and apparently I had spelled it differently in the beginning. I prefer the new way.

Yes HR?

I would have you hear you say it but that seems about right. the pee is more of a peh though and the lee is more of a leh.

It is weird, my southern friends think I am from the north and my northern friends think I am from the south. Guess that is what I get for living half my life on one side and the other half on the other.

Cheating?
I'm in a gunboat game and in Autumn 1904 Austria was 2/2 in support moves for Italy and Italy was 1/1 in support moves for Austria. Perhaps they just guessed correctly what each person was doing, but how do I contact the admins to report my concerns?

webDip YouTube Channel
Hello all,
I've had several people ask about the YouTube channel, so I just wanted to assure everyone that it is not dead. We were having some audio recording issues that were making the videos very time consuming to produce. Once I resolve that (hopefully very soon) I expect we will go back to a very frequent release schedule. Stay tuned!
