Bible question: Which bits of the Old Testament still apply?
The bible is confusing... but thankfully this forum is frequented by many expert theologists who I'm sure can help me here. This is not a troll thread, I have an honest question on a matter which genuinely confuses me.

Around the World Gunboat Tournament EoG, Game 13
gameID=104130

Currently working on my EoG. The short version is that this game is a textbook example of how an unbelievably good start can get completely shut down by guessing wrong many, many times.

Draugnar is hosting a game...
So I just finished up my last active game and am looking to start another. I am recruiting players but reserve the right to exclude and pick and choose who they are.

Anon or not is up for grabs. Buy in is 170 D and the game will be WTA full press. Chime in if your interested and anon versus non preference or requirements.

Cheaters...
Hi there. What do i have to do to complain about cheating in Gunboat games?
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 May 13 UTC
Email the mods and do not post it in the forum. We don't allow cheating allegations here.

The mods can be reached at [email protected] just send them the game ID and the countries in question along with what you consider any evidence (suspicious moves etc).

One thing I've always wondered: you're not allowed to post cheating accusations, and implications someone is cheating are not allowed either...
So, if you accuse someone of posting cheating accusations, doesn't that mean you are posting cheating accusations as well? After all, "don't post cheating accusations", like people always say in such a case, does imply you are posting cheating accusations...
Draugnar (0 DX)
28 May 13 UTC
Steephie - It's a language thing. To cheat requires one to be doing it in a game. Breaking site rules is not cheating unless it is breaking a rule in a game (like getting around press or illegal metagaming/multigaming). Posting a cheating accusation is not cheating, but merely breaking a site rule just as having multiple accounts who never play together isn't cheating but is still breaking a site rule.

redhouse1938 (userID=37223), please do not encourage other people to post cheating accusations in the forum (even jokingly), as you know this is against site rules.

Morandini, thank you for asking instead of just posting, I see you sent in an email which I'll be looking into shortly. Any problems you have regarding the site can be sent to that email.

Draugnar (userID=2013) it is exactly because you are unsure that you would make a good Mod.
I think two of the key prerequisites are that you have respect for the integrity of the site and that you seem to consistently spend a lot of time on here.
Your own style and method of dispensing justice is a separate issue and a personal thing, as long as you get the big decisions right I'm sure Users will give you some leeway on the delivery. Judge Dread had some questionable MO but he got the job done, site Moderation is a results business, not a vicars tea party.....

Yeah steephie, Ze, and Hir are two of the more common gender neutral pronouns. I'm not sure if they are officially recognized words though, Sie is another one. Don't ask me how they are used in a sentence, I have no idea, lol.

@Partysane, I believe that would be pyroism
Partysane (10754 D(B))
28 May 13 UTC
Well all those gender neutral pronouns are, as far as i know, neologisms and not incorporated in standart english, right?
Also i would use it in situations where you meet someone and just don't know what hir is. You know, those a boy that looked like a girl that looked like a boy situations. But then it probably be offensive and another -ism.
SacredDigits (102 D)
28 May 13 UTC
Hm, there are people who rally for a "lookism," but that's generally about whether the person is attractive or not. I don't think you could judge that based on being mistaken for another gender. As far as that goes, I know people who actively try to cultivate the "gender amibguous" look and yet are still bothered by people not knowing their gender.

I am quite sure of where I stand on my skill. I would be impartial, but I would knee jerk piss people off. The mods get enough heat for some of their responses, they don't need even more because I was one of them and pissing people off left and right. This is where I vent because I *can't* vent to my clients and I *won't* vent to my family. And I like to vent. Boy do I like to vent.

I see the Mods trying to be as reasonable and fair as they can now and people still go nuts whole hazel nuts at things they say and do. If Mother Theresa was a Mod I'm sure she'd come in for some severe criticism (if she wasn't dead). It might just be that people have unrealistic expectations of what Mods should do and be.....
...... I'm not convinced you could cause much more controversy than there already is with the Mods. Anyway I won't go on like that hungry troll Alderian.

"For a handful of people to make everyone else uncomfortable just makes no sense," said Kavanagh. Terribly sorry that protecting minority rights makes Mr. Kavanagh "uncomfortable."
