honestly ive done it...


not to get a card but because of such a horrible starting position that if I do happen to get two consecutive flattenings grace a les dice, there's really no point in resisting... no hope of getting a continent ever, so might as well clear the game out of my active games ...

agreed with iceman



Hell, just put 'with __ armies' next to the entire current attack bar. So what if you normal attack with 5 armies? You still only get 3 dice.

no.

Do I want the US to be ready for that? Yes.



Right now, there are a lot of ignorant, discriminatory people who are more politically aware/active who wouldn't be otherwise, due to the Iraq war. The sentiment of 'patriotism' has become tied to 'beat up everyone who isn't us-ism'. People ...

I'm a newb who hasn't finished 5 games


Out of the 4 games I've finished, 3 were singles and 1 was triples. The game where I had the most enjoyable experience was the triples. Full disclosure - it was the one game I won. However, the reason I enjoyed it was because of the fact that I had someone ...

actually, I'm just pissed off because every game I play seems to have at least one person deadbeat... learned my lesson from the dice thread in gen disc - I've only finished a tiny number of games, so I'm not claiming to be The Absolute Genius here, but I'm just pointing out...


It makes things ...

I don't necessarily think they should lose points - there will inevitably be cases of things like power outages and the like that prevent people from getting online. But they definitely shouldn't be rewarded for that, even if it wasn't something they could have controlled.

We talked about the budget and social security in my government class today


To those of you confused... out of the budget, about 67% is mandatory spending:

21% Social Security
14% Medicare
10% Medicaid
9% Debt relief
13% Income Security

Defense is technically a discretionary ...

a quick side note, since people seem to be offended by the topic title...


I'm going to give the guy the benefit of the doubt and assume he meant "Don't post here if all you know about the US is what you've seen on the news" - meaning that some people from other countries would indeed be better ...

what are you trying to do, filibuster him?



Anyway, I agree with you, regardless of what other people are saying. I'm not sure what they use to program the dice, but it's now been two games (out of two completed and three active) where my starting positions have been decimated because I attacked ...

1) what does the sumatra thing have to do with anything

2) If out of 5 games, 2 of them have had these bad streaks, that should count more than someone who's played 100 games and had 2 games with that kind of luck. Look at the percentages

3) Ignore the references to the games themselves and ...

Ever play a real board game? Those rolls are as random as it gets, and they streak too.

Yes I have, and no I don't get streaks like the kinds I'm getting. Maybe two or three consecutive losses, but people here are talking about streaks well over three rolls.

Humans like to detect patterns, even ...

the point is that if the dice were as perfect as people are saying, you shouldn't think "since I just had three crappy rolls, I should stop, because that means that I'm on a bad dice streak"


No such thing should exist. And if the numbers are random but bad rolls tend to accumulate then they ...

I just told you, I've only played through two games and am currently playing through three.


This isn't a case of me having played for months, forgetting many times where a streak of sixes won me the game.

For the record, the fact that the US gives a lot to the UN shouldn't impact how much say the US has. Everyone acknowledges that the US government has issues with corruption and that its representatives are puppets of lobbyists.


Why are the representatives puppets? Because the lobbies give the ...
