Nominations for The Greatest Musician/Musical Act of All-Time

To get away for awhile from fights over foreign fights and people being X'd out here (please don't smite me, Maniac!) we begin the follow-up to our Greatest Author of All-Time Tournament with the search for the Greatest Musician/Musical Act of All-Time! Regional groups this time, US/UK/Europe/World (unless someone has a better grouping plan.) Either way, once again, everyone gets 4 noms, and we'll start when we fill out our Bracket of 64, 16 per group. Go! :)

How do YOU like to juggernaut?

The juggernaut is probably the most famous alliance - but how do YOU like to run it? As Russia? As Turkey? What are the key centres and moments in the construction of the alliance?

When you're heading for a solo

After *that* move where you get 2/3 centres and suddenly look like you're set for a solo: how do you convince the other players not to turn on you yet?

Gaining a supply center

I'm confused, on this site, there's spring and autumn. What happened to Winter?
When is the supply center gained?
Also, do I need a unit to phisycally exist in the supply center's country during the gain phase? Or perhaps it's enough that the unit passed there before?

New Proposed Feature

I was wondering if any of you coders out there can code a new feature that allows a player to repeat the previous phase's moves. This would be really useful when playing stalemate games that are drawn out by one player attempting to break through, hoping for an NMR or waiting for others to be taken out of the draw. It gets very boring sometimes to enter the same moves repeatedly and helps to avoid careless mistakes.

Since Draugnar got banned for taking credit for an attack on the site, I see only two ways to handle this credit-taking: PE gets banned, or we all admit that it's just talking bullshit and allow Draugnar to come back.

Any other course of action can only be supported with double standards.

Yes, I'm serious.

SYnapse is currently online. He should clearly be our top suspect. Draugnar may have been training him.

I'm not taking credit for this incident. I was playing off of a joke ghug made in another thread about me "actually being a supercomputer hellbent on world domination."

@PE: So you would say taking credit for an attack as a joke is not something to be banned for?
If so, Draugnar should probably not just be unbanned but also compensated, but I'm sure he's gracious enough to waive his compensation once he has been unbanned.

Every time I begin to lose faith in this forum...

"Putin is right! It is time to unite and drive the Russians out of Crimea once and for all!"

*Slow Clap* Bravo...

"Leave it to the Dutch to make no sense at all."

You got on your Political Correctness High Horse when I was talking about my "Mexican friend," but you're allowed to wholesale slam an entire nation allegedly talking nonsense...

This, from the guy who's enamored with the nation that reported the shoot down of MH17 as:

http://time.com/3019915/russian-media-narrative-on-mh17-tragedy-highlights-kremlins-grip-on-public-opinion/

"a dramatically different narrative...The conspiracy theories are as varied as they are bizarre: The Ukrainian military shot down the plane in a failed assassination attempt on Putin, the plane was filled with dead bodies, the crash was orchestrated by the U.S. or NATO.The theories have one thing in common: Russia, and Putin, are not to blame."

:O OH MY GOD, THAT'S IT!

*PUTIN* ATTACKED THE SITE...AND HE'S FRAMING ANYONE FROM NATO!!!

Josunice tournament

I was wondering what are the current standings with the couple of games that recently finished... I was dead last before the solo, so I want to know if there is still hope of at least second place now that I have bounced back. I think josemurcs was winning by a lot, but with the latest results maybe he is no longer leading so easily?
