FINALLY HOLIDAY!!
Well, I gave it all daily these last 4 weeks causing me to have a 9.2 now, and the holiday is only a week, but I've never been so happy with a holiday. Now if you'll excuse me I'll go sleep for 21 hours now, too bad I have a party then...

COTY
After all the fun lately, maybe we should start quoting the best comments of the year?
Also, before everyone does it, are you allowed to quote yourself or does someone else have to nominate your comment?

Getting around an active silence?
It wasnt a new profile, so that can't be it. Who cares to speculate? I'm going for a php injection as scenario.

What's the most memorable thing someone's told you in a game on here before?
Whether it's a taunt, a witty one-liner, or some really insightful piece of wisdom (whether for the game or real life), what's the most memorable thing you've heard in a webDiplomacy game?

Put it to a vote!
The votes are clearly there, at least 24 in the count provided in the link below. the Republican leadership continues to refuse to put a clean bill to a vote.

New rule: If you are going to claim...
... that this politician said this or that some study showed that, provide a citation.

I will do my best to follow this rule (it's good practice for elsewhere in life) and everyone else (hear me SillyPutty?) should do the same.

Confused about support holds
I'm France in a gunboat game GB36WTA.
http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=126952

Last turn, England support held my fleet in North Sea from 2 locations, Ed and Lon. My fleet in North Sea tried to move to Holland and was blocked. T hen my fleet in Nsea was dislodged by Nor with support from Den. Why didn't my fleet, plus 2 support holds, prevent the attack from Norway? What am I missing?

2013 Pissing Troll Awards... You Know Who You Are!
The Forum is quite free and open, given this is a DIPLOMACY site, not religious or political. I came here for Diplomacy, but have joined some unrelated and interesting discussions. However, with the govt shutdown, the Pissing Trolls have come out in force -- crazy, insulting and clogging the boards -- they need to be named.

No no no....shit sucker is reserved for Putin...not for general abuse of jut anyone. It would be a rare instance in which a Non-Putin entity earns the "shit sucker" monicker, and only then when they are acting particularly Putinish (lying, making up history, general anti-Americanism with no good reason...) or are defending Putin irrationally (and, mind you, all defenses of Putin are, by necessity, irrational)...

@Krellin, you seem to be under the misapprehension that all pieces of information have the same effect. Clearly things which people already agree with are just reinforced, while things they already expressly disbelieve reinforce their disbelief; but those other things which people have not yet incorporated into their belief system would be different.

I mean, we might aswell admit to ourselves that we're not going to accept 'facts' and make political statements as such. This is life, and unless you get off on shouting your point of view at people who aren't listening...

Does anyone else do this, start playing a game, and then think, you know what I'll help my neighbour win? Why would you do this, there was ample opportunity to stab?
This is an anonymous gunboat btw and these players don't know each other.
I suppose this is one of the dangers of playing non-WTA, people play for points even if it means they lose the game.
