Question: Is the Imperial Senate trying to stile voters?
In a recent gallup poll, surveys discovered voters are apathetic about the upcoming elections. "I dont think we ever imagined it would come down to Jar Jar or Emperor Palpatine as our only options".

Ohio State is a solid lock to get upset today
Vegas has them as +10 favorites vs Wisconsin in Madison. Ohio State hasnt played anyone worth a crap yet. I look for a low scoring game, Wisconsin wins 17-13.

Would anyone be interested in a Diplomacy Stream?
I recently got the version of Diplomacy published by Paradox Interactive (the studio that made Europa Universalis and similar games) working on my pc. I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in watching me stream a game or two vs the AI at some point (with commentary)?

Why no messages setting option?
Why is aviable the no messages setting? I think is against the essence of the game, that's diplomacy. Nevertheless this option is very common. I think Diplomacy without diplomacy is like basketball without basket (or ball if you prefer). What do you think about it?

Question of Electoral Ethics
For the district where I'm registered to vote, the US representative seat is only being sought by one person. By Oklahoma state statute, unopposed candidates don't even appear on the ballot, nor is there the opportunity to write-in a candidate. Do you think the name of unopposed candidates should be printed on the ballot?

James - you are bi? Seriously who give s fuck. Who and what you want to do with your dick is truly of no interest to me....but I'm sure you proudly pin your bi-label on yourself in these modern times as if it is some badge of honor.

funny thing is, Libtards in this country used to say, "Stay the fuck out of my bedroom!". Now you can't wait to tell us every deviant pleasure and insist we are all supposed to be impressed.

I dont' think you are a "fag"....and where did you dig that old term up from? I don't know jack shit aobut your day-to-day life and YOUR problem is you think that:
1. I do know about you and
2. I give a flying fuck.

You morons....yes, I just grouped you, though I'll let you assign yourself to whatever group you want to be in....have made the mistake of thinking that "What I do with my dick" has some bearing on whether or not you are right or wrong in the discussion of political issues that have nothing to do with your dick.

THAT is why many people have pretty much had it up to here (raising my hand over your mom's naked body to demonstrate height I am portraying) with the deviant sexual agenda of the left -- becuase you think it is AT ALL relevant to anything.

Here is an example of what I mean:
When I interview an individual for a job, I could give a fuck whether or not he fucks his cat, as long as he
1. can do his job
2. doesn't somehow make it evident to me in a job interview that he fucks his cat! Because:
a. I'm interviewing him to <do a, b and c> which has nothing to do with cat-fucking
b. if he somehow thinks it is appropriate to reveal he is a cat-fucker, then he doesn't have the common sense to fit into my company which in no way, shape or form has anything to do with anyone fucking anything.

So, if you all would quit wearing your fucking habits on your sleeve like they are something to be proud of, you would find a lot less people flinging their poo at you.

@brainbomb -- if you stand by your post at 3:55, then you will stop supporting the media, the advertising, etc etc etc that objectifies women in ways you find objectionable.

That fact that you spew your screaming liberal bullshti at everyone and cast your judgement on everyone for their evil ways...and then cram popcorn in your face while enjoying the entertainment industry taht does EXACTLY what you claim to despise means that you have ZERO MORAL STANDING to tell anyone how to live their life.

Liberty<Pursuit of Happiness eh?

"If people want to be homosexual not only is it legal, it absolutely should be accepted."

I have no problem allowing anti-gay people scream at me. You will never change anything by censorship. What because it's illegal to say the word faggot, people will have a miraculous epiphany and say "OH! I see the light now!" of course not. I can suck up being called a few names to protect the right to free speech.

you only want "pursuit of happiness" for the people YOU deem worthy.


I seem to remember a certain Adolf Hitler having a similar ideology. It's called facism.

which is funny krellin because I rarely ever watch tv other than sports. and I tend to not like how professional athletes treat women. I also had the debate on last night and my neice came and sat down and asked who was going to win, right as donald was going on and on and on about his tape where he talked about grabbing womens vaginas. So naturally I did what any good uncle would do, and I changed the channel. I dont want my neice hearing that crap. I gave her my phone to play tetris and I watched the packers game until she left the room. (she lost and gave up after 1 game of tetris)

Im not sure Yanik, but when someone elses freedom of speech is so vitriolic that it impedes the right to the Pursuit of Happiness, then I think we do have a serious problem. For example, have you ever heard of the crime called "terroristic threats?" its actually a felony to threaten violence to someone over the internet. Death threats are actually a crime, EVEN in instances where it can be proven the person making the accusation has no capability to carry out the act. A terroristic threat is considered any situation where someone feels in danger, and there is proof of a threat.

So technically the other day if leon was actually thinking I was trying to incite violence against him, (which I was not), he could certainly take me to court over the internet.

Cyber bullying has actually produced real suicides, real murders, and actual crimes. You may think its okay to perpetuate that kind of slurs, since you yourself are Bi, but maybe other gay or bi people dont wanna hear that kind of hateful crap.

It seems that there are more recordings of Trump's locker room talk and behavior that weren't private conversations. They just happened to get edited out and hidden by a friend.

Maybe Trump has a Clinton like definition of respect other than the dictionary's.

that was a joke btw. there is an issue that begins in childhood though, where girls are told to be less inclined with games. Hurts them later in STEM careers.

I'm your typical male stereotype: chess, legos, and massive statistical analysis of sports teams.

i think that's typical at least
brainbomb (290 D)

Your sexual preference is your choice. I am not exactly sure why you are baiting krellin and others to start hating homosexuals but that doesnt strike me as something a person who is "actually" bi would waste their time doing.

Im sure at some point or another trump used a anti gay slur too, after all, is that just late 90's early 2000's locker room talk too?

I'd like krellin, ND, or leon to answer that question.
krellin (80 DX)

@james you seem to insist that were I ever to meet you, I would have some desire to label you. This is a typical LIBERAL thought process.

If I met you, I would call you James. NOT James the Bi, or James the Cat Fucker, or James the whatever.

But, it seems the bent of liberals in this counjtry to classify and label and group every individual they meet before they even know their name -- indicating that rather than being a philosophy that truly believes all individuals are equality, you instead represent a philosophy that first and foremost is a philosphy of JUDGEMENT, and thereby it is damned near impossible for you to believe in equality.

It's sad and pathetic, really.

@brainbomb -- "baiting to hate homosexuals"?
there you go again. Why would I possibly hate a person because they are homosexual? As I have stated before, I could give a flying at turd whom or what you want to fuck, and I certainly won't bother to waste the energy to hate you because of where you stick your dick.

Seriously, dude, what the fuck is wrong with you?

@JamesYanik: Yiannopolous the professional troll giving people 'permission' to use words because he likes to troll people with them (read: use them as insultingly as possible and then mock people for being insulted) doesn't hold water.

I agree that the words themselves should not be censored by government, but not because I consider their derogatory usage acceptable. And just because you personally have no problem with being harassed doesn't mean everyone should just shut up and take it.

@brainbomb

1. making threats is a HUGE difference from what i'm talking about

2. pursuit of happiness. not 'easy pathway handed to you to happiness'. there will be obstacles, but eliminating a basic "unalienable" right just to feel good, is a step too far.

3. yeah but the message we need to be teaching kids shouldn't ONLY BE "if you call someone a name then you're a bully" it should ALSO BE "the kids calling you names are idiots. seriously. they're taking time out of their lives to insult a random person? clearly their time isn't worth much, so you shouldn't spend any of your own worrying about it"

instead we have "bullying is mean, no bully zone!" which makes me cringe. it's creating kids with thin skin, who are taught the world will be compassionate, when this world is shit. Even in schools... It's not a practical defense method. It isn't saving lives. It isn't preventing suicides. I do admit it's a problem, but we're going about it the wrong way

4. "but maybe other gay or bi people dont wanna hear that kind of hateful crap."

AHA! so it's not necessarily predicated on sexual orientation, it's that people "DON'T WANNA HEAR THAT KIND OF HATEFUL CRAP."

in 1930s Germany if I said "hey guys i actually kinda like the Jews, they'd say "THEY'RE EVIL AND I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOU SUPPORTING THEIR HATEFUL CRAP"



I agree with your intentions @brainbomb, but i don't agree with the precedent. If one thing is determined as "i don't wanna hear that" and BANNED. Then people will start banning words like:

Master
Lame
Weird
Stupid

and more. Want proof? Look at college campuses. It's a slippery slope, and that's evident because we've already started to fall down it!

yeah Milo is kind of an idiot, but I was basically showing an example of how Not all Gay people are complete Liberals. Milo himself is a die hard Trump supporter and his debating technique is still too Pathos for me.

@Krellin

once again, you need to understand a hypothetical. it's a great way on analyzing things. i don't whether or not you label me. Only that you have the right to do so in the HYPOTHETICAL situation if you pleased

I just wanna point out that Trump and pence do plan to pack the supreme court with people who will overturn the LGBT laws. He certainly didnt refute that accusation by Hillary. I realize it may shock some of you to hear this, but there is in fact a very large sect of the Republican party more than half in fact, who are Christians totally against homosexuality. Im not just making this up.

Ted Cruze was very vocally against the LGBT law.

Unranked games have counted towards GR
Hey just wanted you guys to know that GR has been broken for a while now, with unranked games being counted towards GR since it's been integrated.

Do not worry, I've already contacted the mods, and they are working feverishly to fix the problem and it should be fixed by the next GR update, but I felt that all of you should know. Hold on one second while I get my proof for this.
