this idea has some merit, HR - you should post it in suggs.

Taking into account the general user nationalities/locations it's probably the reason,I imagine we'll be below 5,500 by the end of the month,which is good covid wise but bad for cc.....i know my preference.

And please, do not turn this into a complaint about dice. that topic has been discussed ad nauseum.

CC looks and feels old to me. To save it you'd need to overhaul it imo

also, can it survive with just RISK games? idk, maybe. CC's heyday was when...2009? it had plenty of competition in the video game world so I think it could still do well. just needs a new coat of paint and some new brand invigoration

You have a rather abnormal fixation and addiction to this number.

Not really, he's just trying to cause trouble over your synonym for "SNICKER".

https://www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/snicker

The variant you used seems less common in the US&A these days, where a few folks are going through things that could cause panic over your word. You might want to switch to SNICKER.

Example, "5,569...snicker"

The meaning is identical to what you wrote but it's less likely to cause problems on conquerclub this week.

You will of course need to be careful later, in case the Mars candy corporation gets upset about you using my recommended variation.

Davie. K is from Puru. I think he was joking around about the number, hence the "snicker"... as opposed to having "a fetish." and I don't presume he was using anal the same way you and your friend mrswdk did either. It's possible, so I will defer to his response.

I never did find out what the screen name mrswdk meant. I think it might be an acronym for, or otherwise have something to do with a region, a city or a neighbourhood.. Possibly a place were there is a high number of British citizens of the U.K. gathered in or near Hong Kong.

When he first joined he was talking a lot about his time spent in China. A few of us were conversing about things relating to that such as riding around on scooters and his return from there. As far as I can tell those threads, were lost to the off topics forum reset mystery surrounding thorthoth that defeated the search function, that would be a rather long story in it's self.

We asked about the screen name. It was before everyone started calling him Mrs wdk and the accompanying Chinese girl shtick. He wrote something suggesting, if you had been to China you'd know what it stood for.

I asked around but unfourtunatly, China is a rather huge and diverse place, I never found anyone I knew that was from China or visited the right part, that knew.

I agree. I was not here in 2009 and so I cannot address that issue.

I did look at another website for Risk in the past few days. It offers good graphics and special effects and TUTORIALS. BUT not the in-depth features (that perhaps I have not dug deep enough into) that CC offers. This to me means (partly) a great record of games played, to study them to learn how to play better. In addition, there are so many maps and so many options for game play.

He merely made a common pop-culture reference a few times. Less than five, I believe. Granted he did express lots of excitement but I presume that to be an important part of the joke.

Meanwhile who can count how often you write about a certain former member, who has been gone for quite a while now? Does Davie.K even know who you are talking about?

Sure you don't do it as much as Saxi, but here we are, you've done it yet again, as has occurred so many times before.
