A "Unified" Palestinian Government? I Think Not...
http://news.yahoo.com/hamas-trying-destroy-palestinian-unity-says-abbas-112457367.html I'd say having to scrap ceremonies for (however one might feel about him) a huge leader in Palestinian history due to concerns one faction might attack the other is a sign you DON'T have a unified government. Much as I dislike Abbas and Fatah, they're the better of the two factions fighting for power there...again--Hamas Hamas HAMAS destroys peace, even for fellow Palestinians.

TV Rots the Brain
Anyone want to post the tote board for TV's five-game series? Three games are finished, ending in solos by three different players. A fourth should end this weekend. And the fifth saw it's first elimination in 1915. Good stuff.

Game error?
Hi guys,
In the game http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=147999 I am trying to move a fleet from EC to Brest but there is no Brest in the drop down menu for the move. There is every other option but Brest.
Anyone has any idea what that is about?

Studying abroad (English-speaking country, maybe French)
Since I'm not particularly attached to my country (the Netherlands) or anything and since my English is pretty good by most standards, I can pretty much choose between most Dutch or English-speaking universities.. Which is a daunting task, if taken seriously as I plan to.
Advice? Suggestions? Where do I start?
I can hardly cross the North Sea or Atlantic Ocean on a regular basis while trying to orientate, see what I like and don't like..

NFL Pick 'em Week 10: A Week of Joy, or Sadness?
We missed Week 9, and the sadness of my 49ers (why don't we run Gore at the goal line anymore?!) and the joy of the Browns as they beat up Andy Dalton and the Bengals (remember them? And I'm calling the Browns as a Wild Card playoff team, I BELIEVE) so, Week 10. 49ers/Saints in a survival game, Chiefs/Bills in a potential playoff elimination game, them Cowboys and Jags in London AGAIN, and the Lombardi/Halas Bowl in Packers/Bears on SNF. Week 10, Pick 'em!

That's me Jonesing for another Gunboat series. Someone start one. (I'd do it myself, but the hosts have been getting their asses kicked...)
vamosrammstein (757 D(B))
06 Nov 14 UTC
I'll gladly play in a gunboat series if there's room. I'm just finishing up a gunboat series currently, and it hasn't gone well, so I'm eager to have another go.
Yaleunc (11052 D(B))
06 Nov 14 UTC
Alright Jim, I'll get one going. And hopefully break the host curse. Phase length will be 24 hr, readying up strongly encouraged, there will be 7 games, no country reassignment (I.e. you play whatever you get assigned automatically and probably won't get to play every country exactly once). Everyone post preferred buy-in and I will set up the games once we have 7. Interested parties add your name to the list. Jim and vamos add your buy-ins.

Yaleunc (11052 D(B))
06 Nov 14 UTC
One other thing I forgot to mention, games will run concurrently. So you will need at least 7 D * buy-in to play. I'd prefer to get at least 20 per game as buy-in but if we can't get 7 that way then I will lower the threshold and add PJ to the list and do a small buy-in.

I wish we could run these as 36 hr with commitment to ready up when possible. Weekends are sometime difficult for me, and international flights are way too frequent to commit to 24 hrs. I would be up for 5-75/game with 36 hr phases.
Yaleunc (11052 D(B))
07 Nov 14 UTC
You can get a 36 he one going as well if you want VB. There are enough of us that prefer 24 that we have been able to run several series the last few months. I get annoyed in the 36 hr ones because it seems like it often devolves into a situation like game 3 from TV's series where all if the other games have been done for a week but this one is still running because one player keeps refusing to ready up even on build and retreat phases.

I would do it in a heartbeat but I wanna play games with people I haven't played with much. I know in gunboat it shouldn't matter but for some reason it does

Card, what if I were to play with one of my other accounts?
seth24c (5659 D)
07 Nov 14 UTC
No it makes perfect sense, we all have different strategies and tendencies so it's good to play a diverse group of people.

"no country reassignment "

Speaking as a mod, this makes me very happy.
Yaleunc (11052 D(B))

I'd be happy to play one of these with reassignment but that seems like an unnecessary hassle to make one of you have to deal with that.

I'd be game. But since I risked all my points in my daring 2000 point game.
I'm sort of broke (like pj) I could do 5 D per game.

If card confirms and we get 1 more I will create 7 games with a buy-in of 5 I guess.

Interest in Public Press Series?
So I've always liked the dynamics of Public Press, and was wondering if it was possible to hold a mini-invitational with some number of games and a scoring system. Would we be able to get the mods to shuffle? Would there be any interest for this sort of thing? Has it happened before?
