Online Diplomacy Championship
A lot of you are active on webDip too, so apologies for making you read this twice, but we're trying to get a tournament with players from all around the internet started, and I'd love for any of you that aren't on/don't check webDip (and all of you who are as well) to join. More inside.

Hey, Butterhead
So Texas is seemingly looking hard only at Shaka Smart. Gregg Marshall from Wichita State is seemingly not being looked at in the same way. For all of the hoopla over the Final Four run, do you have any insight as to why Shaka Smart has never won a conference title in either the Colonial or a gutted Atlantic 10?

You should do well at this. I got 16 out of 18 and would have gotten about 3 out of 18 if I'd never played Diplomacy.

Teams Torunament (2v2 or 2v2v2)
This would require special adjudication in the end game, I guess, but the idea sounds interesting. Anyone else interested. Please don't come in spouting how it isn't real diplomacy. Some of us don't care. We just want to have fun playing a game that uses the fundamental rules set of Diplomacy.

20 Questions - forum game
I'm thinking of an object. You only have 20 questions to guess what that object is. *IMPORTANT* - put the number your question next to the question. The person who guesses correct answer gets to be the next '20 question master'.

04 Feb 15 UTC
ssorren, how exactly is the use of a glass bottle apparent? Some people drink their coffee out of glass containers. Some people use glass bottle in the cleaning of their home. Your responses were about as good as Tomahaha's questions.
ssorenn (954 D X)
04 Feb 15 UTC
who uses a glass bottle in cleaning their houses? why does a glass bottles use have to be apparent?
my responses were yes and no, you are the one being retarded RUFFHAUS 8
Sendric (2060 D)
04 Feb 15 UTC
"5) Does the item get dirtied in it's intended use? Yes, use of the item is apparent."

You yourself stated that the use of a glass bottle is apparent. That is what RUFFHAUS was referring to. In many cases, use of a glass bottle is not apparent. If a glass bottle is holding a cleaning liquid (such as a vinegar solution), it could be used in cleaning the house.
ssorenn (954 D X)
04 Feb 15 UTC
how many cleaning solutions are sold or used out of glass bottles----ZERO, they break
Holy fuck. Does everything have to turn into a fight? The use of a glasss bottle is *not* apparent. It could have milk, magnesium citrate (or other medical liquid), mineral water, taco sauce, soy sauce, tobasco sauce, wine, vodka, scotch, or numerous other liquids plus it could hold solids or gasses.

Interesting semantic ambiguity. I assume "the use is apparent" would be translated as "when the item is in use, it is apparent that the item is in use as compared to not being in use"
Valis2501 (985 D)
05 Feb 15 UTC
(+1)
not that the use, as in the reason one would utilize the item, is apparent, as in clear to everyone in the conversation.
