What did you guys want to be when you grew up.
I'm not an adult yet, and I still am unsure about what job I want. I used the Holland personality codes, and I'm an IES, which suggests pharmacist, but that doesn't particularly appeal to me. Some other jobs it says I might be good at are physician, actuary, and training manager. Of those, actuary and training manager look the most intersting. But this isn't just about me. What dod you guys want to be when you grew up?

Disband instead of retreat
My understanding of the rules of the game were that you were allowed to simply disband a unit instead of retreating it. Is this also true of webdiplomacy? When the retreat round comes will my pull down menu offer a disband option?

Anyone live within a few hours of Gainsville, FL?
If you are interested in a Face-to-Face game, there is an avid Dip player who wants to try to organize sme ftf games in FL. I personally live a few hours away, but we find the 3-4 other players we need, it'd be worth trying to organize a game. write inside if you want to play or live close enough.

I am so SICK of the Gaga Person!
She's an unoriginal hackjob with no talent except to gratify others through the basest of all techniques (in other words, she'd make Hugh Hefner pretty happy) and for getting her name out with scandals that flood the Web and take away from the important news (Arizona's immigration law? BP Oil Spill? The Economy?)

How do you feel about this...person (and THIS pisses me off): http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/stopthepresses/220323/lady-gaga-photo-irks-beatles-fans/

Corrupt a Wish
The first person makes a positive wish, and the next person plays the role of the djinn granting the wish, and then turning it into a disaster. The second person then makes the next wish, and the cycle repeats itself.

Saxophone, better ruiner. Wish Granted but then Chuck Norris tries to help you up when he accidentally throws you into outer space. I wish for Legally obtained billion dollars of money and a Strong US exonomy
largeham (149 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
But then inflation runs wild, and your billion dollars is worth nothing, and the economy collapses.
I wish for a bolt-action rifle.

ODaly (236 D)

@killer:
Granted, but you're arrested for using illegal currency in the Martian economy.

I wish for an endless supply of the world's greatest coffee.
killer135 (100 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but then you drink so much at one time it burns a hole in your throat and chokes you to death. I wish I could have some money that would collapse in the economy
killer135 (100 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
*wouldn't collapse*
ODaly (236 D)

@killer:
Granted, but you only get 15 cents. Enjoy your two sticks of gum.
I wish for all money to be destroyed.
killer135 (100 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but then everything collapses. Nobody can pay bills, nobody can buy food, everything breaks down. The last few Humans on Earth search for you and then kill you using rocks tied to sticks. I wish for a million dollars and An economy that COULD NOT COLLAPSE!!!
largeham (149 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
But then people are frustrated at the class rule, and overthrow the economy and society.

I wish for an end to relative scarcity.

rayNimagi (375 D)

Granted, soccer-fans and soccer teams migrate to New Zealand following their impressive 9001-0 victory over the opposing team. The sheer weight of the new populations causes the islands to sink and become a myth like Atlantis.

I wish Windows computers could not get viruses.
saxophonedude (100 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but you get a million viruses, so you are physically unable to use your Windows computer anymore.

I wish I had God-mode over all wishes, thus making mine uncorruptable.

redcrane (1045 D)

diplomat554 (2104 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but you can't make any more.

I wish I had a (working) laptop.
Last two posts apparently respond to the same wish, so I'll corrupt both. >=D

redcrane: Granted, but you're the only survivor of the impending nuclear holocaust. All food sources have been eradicated. Enjoy perpetual hunger.

diplomat: Granted, however the laptop runs Window 92. In the time it takes you to respond to my wish, you could probably have baked enough cakes on a wooden stove to save Marie Antoinette from embarrassment.

My wish is that this wish not be corrupted.
Sebastinovich (313 D)
04 Jul 10 UTC
Granted, but an uncorrupted wish can't corrupt another wish, so your courruption is also nullified.

A'holes leaving the game?
I just had a game where a person left the game for no apparent reason other than it looked like they may not win. This really throws off a game. First, how and why can a person do this? Second, is there a way to flag them or block them from games so they can't keep doing it to you?

Facebook diplomacy - any devs out there?
Hey, I'm a mod on the facebook app for diplomacy, but the person who set me up (and presumably has higher-level access) has gone incommunicado.

There are some problems with the forum and profiles and I wonder if the database needs a clear-out. Can anyone over here work on the facebook app, or is it totally stranded now?
