To you in For fun-20
Whoever you are that wants a pause - how are we supposed to talk to each other to unpause later in an anonymous gunboat? That's why I'm not voting pause and I'm sorry if I'm a dick.

Book of Mormon
Just got back from NYC where I watched Book of Mormon. If you're a fan of South Park, I cannot recommend you watch this highly enough.

There were a few people there who clearly had no idea what was happening and were horrified; it made it all the better.

Stop the bullies......
....... I would be interested to know how many other people have been abused (or amused) by e-mails from the 'experts' on this site because they played in an anonymous game and the 'expert' didn't like something you had done, so waits until the end of the game to e-mail abuse.

Game Glitch
link: http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=81163#gamePanel

I believe there was a glitch in this game. As you can see, in spring 1904, the fleet in rumania attacked the fleet in the black sea which was convoying an army into sev. this attack should have prevented the convoy even though it had support from Armenia.

"who are gay for each other" Is that even a sentence?
semck83 (229 D(B))
07 Mar 12 UTC
You've only quoted a part of the original sentence. What are you talking about?
pjmansfield99 (100 D)
07 Mar 12 UTC
"gay" is a noun or an adjective, it doesn't make grammatical sense to say "gay for each other" - fancy, love, want, desire each other not gay for.
semck83 (229 D(B))
07 Mar 12 UTC
Gay is an adjective. "For each other" is a prepositional phrase, here acting as an adverbial phrase modifying "gay." You can diagram it. It's a grammatical sentence.

It's also in fairly common usage.
pjmansfield99 (100 D)

Then I bow to your knowledge, its not a phrase I would believe to be correct but I'm happy to learn something

"gay"

Is a bad word. I much more prefer 'sodomites' or 'God-forsaken sinners.'
Draugnar (0 DX)
07 Mar 12 UTC
Why? Gay means happy or cheerful. So "a small group of users who are gay for each other" means "a small group of users who are happy for each other." Couldn't the world use a little more happiness wished upon each other?

Well, that's your call Conor. Doesn't mean we are going to do away with it just because *you* don't see a need for it to exist. I don't see a need for condoms to exist. After all, my wife and I can't have children and have a sloving monogamous relationship, so let's destroy all the condoms and get rid of them.

I know several people on here by their full name, including fortknox, but would never call him "Mr. M..." or even "J..." on here. Everyone on the facebook group can get my full name if they like, but courtesy dictates we stick to nicknames here. K?

In-Game Notes possibility?
Hey. Is there any chance that a notes function could be added to games? I think it would help some of us that don't generally write out elaborate EoG's to have the ability to include something, even if it is just terse notes like:
