Why is everybody being so hysterical about a new cold war with Russia? I remember the last one as being relatively quiet, stable and resulting in a colossal and bloodless victory for the west taking form in the '89-'92 period. Wouldn't a second one teach them a lesson about who's boss?

For several days, the Swedish navy has been hunting for a suspected Russian submarine, in its waters near Stockholm.

Looking for reliable people for a non-anon game, preferably Top 100 GR or so... Trying to get TheWizard and THM to join the fun, if interested please PM me (knowing it's *not* first come first served), thanks.

The proposed break-ups of California & Florida have led me to consider this question.

Everybody knows there's a thread to advertise your live games. But what about games in general?

Play gunboat with me. Sign up here. Stakes don't matter. 36 hr WTA NON ANON. What.

Because there was some interest in EOG statements in the official GR challenge game thread, comments here for gameID=145683

would lying about whether a move is possible be outside the standards of what is and isn't okay with regard to diploming? say a person is concerned about another player making a move that is impossible, should I tell him it is, or benefit from his not knowing?

...... was this money well spent? How proud are you....

Any difference between these orders as far as combat strength if the province is attacked that has one of these orders? are they still all equal to 1?

I have the sudden urge to test myself against some of the top players on the site (who needs dip points and personal pride, anyway?). WTA, cheap buy-in, semi-anon, 3 day phases (I've been busy recently). Who's game?

As part of our effort to rejuvenate and grow the site, the mods and I are going to sponsor 3 or 4 "Top 100 GR Players of All Time" games.

I've been looking through the forum but I can't find an existing thread. So here's my question: What do you think is the best Italy starting tactic?

One game has yet to start and it will start today when the final player has informed me they will join.

On my profile page I have included the link to all 3 current boards. I have also posted the standings for players in the tournament. I will update my profile each round to show updated standings throughout the tournament.

I've looked in the help category and I can't find it...

See inside for more.

I just just wondering when the next SOW will be (not gunboat)?

I mean, seriously.....

When searching for a game...

It really good to be able to size up the results of the search!

We'll get this one out a day earlier so we can include Thursday Night Blowouts (er, Football) as well. SO. Fresh off their tie, the Panthers travel to Lambeau to play the Packers, while the Bengals take on the Colts in a battle of AFC heavyweights. The disappointing Saints take on the surprising Lions, How 'Bout them Cowboys vs. the Giants in Big D and--yes!--my beloved, glorious Red and Gold have another prime-time game...49ers vs. the Broncos on SNF! Week 7...Pick 'em!

I'm trying to convoy a unit with 2 navies but it will not accept the convoy order for my 2nd Navy. any idea why?

I'll start:

Lockheed Martin announces it is ready to commercialize a fusion reactor design within a decade.

The FAQ doesn't show exactly how it works. What happens if we don't unpause after the time is done? Is the game canceled or does it just unpause with the time we had before?

You guys probably don't care about me very much, and probably didnt even notice when I was here, but this post is going to act as my retirement of sorts. I only played for about 6 months, but I was active in the Mafia games. Anyway, I am now in college, and have a girlfriend now, so I really dont have time for this site and just wanted to say goodbye to you all. This site has really helped me out as a closet nerd, so thanks to you all.
