"Shut Down" Bullshit by Obama

If we don't Federal Workers to man the WWII memorial...how come we have enough to pay the guards to put up barricades and stand guard to prevents WWII vets from visiting? How come Obama still seems to have staff at his *golf course*?

Seems Barrack Dickhead Obama has a very selective vision of what "shut down" means...

DEBT CEILING NEGOTIATIONS

If nobody has ever negotiated on the Debt Ceiling, as Obama and the intellectually vacant around here say, …then how did we get Sequestration after the Debt Ceiling negotiations in 2011. Sequestration was *Obama’s* plan, by the way.

How very little intellectual integrity exists within you morally perverted Democrats…

Rank Questions

So how long does a player remain a Political Puppet and then move on to Member, Experienced, etc?

Is it a matter of how long you've played or how many times you've won or drawn? Or is it just based on time spent on the site? Just curious. Thanks for your help....

was lincoln great for our elite?

bill still seems to think the elite wanted to divide america so lincoln was a problem for them. but i am not so sure. lets say he did not declare war on the south and let the south kick out the norths military from their territory, would that have really benefited them much?

College Life

So a couple months ago I asked the WebDip community for advice for college. Many of you said that joining a frat would be a good idea, and at the very least I should check it out.
Well, on October 7th I am pledging to Theta Chi; are there any soon-to-be fellow frat mates on WebDip? What other fraternities are people a part of?

Fog of war variant

Correct me if there is already one, but wouldn't it be cool to have a variant with 'fog of war'? You would only be able to see enemy units in territories neighbouring your own territory/armies. The uncertainty would make things very interesting.. perhaps with additional distance limitations on conversation as well

What is gunboat tournament?

SplitDiplomat (101466 )
16 May 13 UTC

I believe you meant "what is gunboat?" - it's a variant of diplomacy game in which you aren't allowed to comunicate your intentions to other players in the game. And I'm pretty sure you know what tournament is.

Xildur (2284 )
16 May 13 UTC

Yes, that what I ask.
Thank you, Sir.

SplitDiplomat (101466 )
16 May 13 UTC

You wellcome. You can follow the games if you are interested,you have the links above. And you can pm me if you have questions about gunboat and want to try to play it sometimes.

rdrivera2005 (3533 )
16 May 13 UTC

Well, thanks for the compliments guys, but there is still three games left, so someone can still beat me up.
And frankly, position on this round means nothing, I am happy to qualify for the next one.

Draugnar (0 )
16 May 13 UTC

One thing to be aware is that you can communicate your intentions, you just have to do so with your moves/orders and not by using any press.

2ndWhiteLine (2596 )

Shit, why didn't you say that earlier? That's why I've sucked this whole round .

We need a clarification of that. Draug? bump is ok?

Draugnar (0 )
16 May 13 UTC

Not my thread or my rules.

But that is some kind of dig at my clarifying your patently wrong statement, sucks to be you for making an incorrect statement to begin with. Motives and plans can be communicated in gunboat through your orders. You said they couldn't be communicated. You were wrong.
