Presidential Pets

Nothing against Obama, but I don't find his choice of dog compelling. Portuguese Water Dog? Kind of prissy, don't you think? And Bo? It's not a good dog name. Buddy Clinton, the chocolate lab, now that's a dog. He could have kicked the crap out of Socks the cat, but he was just too damn chill.

WebDiplomacy Tutorial Quiz

This is an amazingly detailed set of quizzes set up by one of our top gunboat players, Rokakoma. I'd challenge everyone to try and figure them all out. Hopefully we can get some or all of these added to the site help eventually.

These are very interesting situations. To be clear though, there are multiple solutions to many of his situations. Try and find them too!!

thank you guys, I appreciate it.
I posted a new one today, however it is not that easy to find good examples, with some lesson as well.

Especially examples, where there are only one solution, as Lando stated, in many cases, there might be more. I'm trying to find exact ones though.

Anyway, if you remember any tricky moves, hard lessons, strange stalemate lines, please do not hesitate to email me with the gameid and a brief summary. I'd appreciate it.

Also if you find any mistakes, typos, wrong analysis, please take the liberty to write/comment.

I hope you find it useful, especially the beginners, to whom it was made in the first place.

retirement

Hello all, I am leaving this game as I haven't had time for it and really haven't been interested in playing given my current priorities in real life. I would like it if someone would take over the one game I am still in, as the other players don't deserve to have a player CD. Please message me if you are interested in taking over a standard message anon game with long phases.
Thanks and goodbye!

You probably don't have what it takes

I'd like to start a game wherein each participant goes all-in with their points (or at least as close to it as possible), AND are more or less evenly matched according to their ghost rating.

Going AWOL

Does the system keep track of how many times a person ditches a game and goes AWOL? I think that should be part of each player's stats. I know nobody likes losing, but I think if you signed up for a game then see it out to the end.

Things i think are missing in the site

I think it could be useful to have a search bar so we can search for specific information on tactics or strategies, etc.
The forum grows every day and i remember conversations wich is getting harder to find but can be of use.
also can be nice to have some record of who created each game, but i am not sure about it.

NFL Week 3: A Week of Teams in Early Turmoil--Redskins, Lions, Colts, 49ers, Steelers...

We kick off the week tonight with Andy Reid's return to Philly in a surprisingly-interesting Chiefs/Eagles match up. Then, Sunday, comes a host of playoff and contending teams with 1-1 or 0-2 records looking to right the ship. Lions and Redskins in a game both need...Colts and Niners in a game already-important for each team's division title hopes...the 0-2 Steelers and 2-0 Bears each with something to prove...who hits their stride, who stumbles--PICK 'EM!

The 6 Weirdest Things We've Learned Since 9/11

It's been a long time since I've liked an article enough to want to cut and paste it somewhere in it's entirety. But anyways, doing that would probably create copyright issues. So instead I'll just post the first paragraph, and then helpfully a link to the rest of the article. Hope you enjoy!
