A "Unified" Palestinian Government? I Think Not...
http://news.yahoo.com/hamas-trying-destroy-palestinian-unity-says-abbas-112457367.html I'd say having to scrap ceremonies for (however one might feel about him) a huge leader in Palestinian history due to concerns one faction might attack the other is a sign you DON'T have a unified government. Much as I dislike Abbas and Fatah, they're the better of the two factions fighting for power there...again--Hamas Hamas HAMAS destroys peace, even for fellow Palestinians.

TV Rots the Brain
Anyone want to post the tote board for TV's five-game series? Three games are finished, ending in solos by three different players. A fourth should end this weekend. And the fifth saw it's first elimination in 1915. Good stuff.

Any Freemasons here?
I just watched an 11 hour documentary about the Illuminati that mentioned Freemasons are Satan-worshippers and I want confirmation.

I watched it on YouTube, so it's probably more accurate then most of the history channel.

I'm not one myself, but I do know that they aren't (necessarily) Satan worshipers. Freemasonry is mostly secular. In most cases, the only religious requirement is professing a belief in some god or gods so long as the religion involves a supreme being. In most of Scandinavia, they have to be Christian, and in a lot if France they can be atheists. George Washington, a deist, was known to be a Freemason.

My step grandfather was a 33rd degree mason and I never saw anything remotely devil worship like in his house.

It seems like a fascinating organization with a lot of history. If it is a secret society, then it is probably one of the worst kept secrets.

One of my friends' father is a Freemason. He certainly isn't a Satanist. The whole family is religious, so they go to Church on Sundays and whatnot, but there definitely isn't anything weird about him. Not that I've noticed anyway.

I am a Freemason. I have been since 2008. I don't remember anything about Satan.
I visited the Freemason Temple in Philadelphia. I didn't see anything satanic, but there were some interesting Egyptian themes.

Masons are no more devil-worshipers than people on a bowling team are. It's just like the Rotary Club: a social organization that lets men get away from their wives every so often and raise money for charity too.

"George Washington, a deist, was known to be a Freemason."

Washington was an Anglican. He was baptised and given last rites as an Anglican.

There are lots of Freemason and Illuminati related imagery incorporated into webDip. The "W" in webDiplomacy is lower case for that very reason - if you zoom in really close, its actually a tiny Masonic compass and square meant to represent how Satan is the inspiration for the original board game.

Game error?
Hi guys,
In the game http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=147999 I am trying to move a fleet from EC to Brest but there is no Brest in the drop down menu for the move. There is every other option but Brest.
Anyone has any idea what that is about?

Studying abroad (English-speaking country, maybe French)
Since I'm not particularly attached to my country (the Netherlands) or anything and since my English is pretty good by most standards, I can pretty much choose between most Dutch or English-speaking universities.. Which is a daunting task, if taken seriously as I plan to.
Advice? Suggestions? Where do I start?
I can hardly cross the North Sea or Atlantic Ocean on a regular basis while trying to orientate, see what I like and don't like..

NFL Pick 'em Week 10: A Week of Joy, or Sadness?
We missed Week 9, and the sadness of my 49ers (why don't we run Gore at the goal line anymore?!) and the joy of the Browns as they beat up Andy Dalton and the Bengals (remember them? And I'm calling the Browns as a Wild Card playoff team, I BELIEVE) so, Week 10. 49ers/Saints in a survival game, Chiefs/Bills in a potential playoff elimination game, them Cowboys and Jags in London AGAIN, and the Lombardi/Halas Bowl in Packers/Bears on SNF. Week 10, Pick 'em!

Today: "Man, you are such a fag"
When I try to reply to the second PM, I find out that Al Swearengen has muted me. Anyone care to comment?

Interest in Public Press Series?
So I've always liked the dynamics of Public Press, and was wondering if it was possible to hold a mini-invitational with some number of games and a scoring system. Would we be able to get the mods to shuffle? Would there be any interest for this sort of thing? Has it happened before?

Please post below!
