There is some truth to this at least in the manner of seeing human nature and understanding it. I would say the politics of 5-10 years ago was more helpful than the politics of today (too small now that its more theatre than politics).

I'm an alien too. Because if I say so, it must be true.

LCN didn't run any suiciders and largely avoided grabbing Rage all reset. Your historical revisionism is amusing to say the least.

They can't pass a repeal of ObamaCare with current their lone House majority, but they can defund healthcare initiatives such as the IRS inspectors who would be required to effectively implement parts of the law. However, if you look closely you will see funds shifted in last years CRs to give certain agencies multi-year budgets in one budget year.

I still find it amusing that the CBO rates a net savings. It's like saying you will irrigate the Vegas desert with a puddle.

I wish TDM was a higher kill threshhold. 7500 ends so quick sometimes. Also HATE the server dropping issues.

Nazi zombies is decent, but playing online everyone steals kills, doesnt knife first few rounds, etc.

DL, I can't categorically say anything on LCN's behalf because for the 11th time I'm not a leader in LCN.

Again though, just because someone did not deny something explicitly does not mean that the converse is true. If that were the case then you would in fact be Ravi's angry love child and Assassin's gay partner.

"This war is in this context, the suicider was the straw that broke the camels back. LCN's leadership supported ravi, this you have not denied."

Well, since we're using observational selection might I add that I also did not deny that you're possibly Ravi's angry love child, Assassin's gay partner, and/or the Queen of England. With that said, I'm not sure that because I didn't deny something therefore makes it true.

I hardly think that the LCN leadership's decision to attack and attempt to kill a valued LCNer's country constitutes supporting the same member.

Circling back around to my original point (and utilizing a little bit of your logic), since you didn't explicitly deny Rage is classless therefore Rage is classless.

Also I did not deny I know the winning Powerball numbers. Thus I shall win the $95 million jackpot. I hope you're right about this non-denial stuff because I sure would enjoy the money :-).

Nothing to dry up SS, I was explaining why I thought (and think) Rage is classless :). I don't really care about finishes much or honestly the game, that's why I don't do leadership or even landgrabbing because the time I spend on this is amusement for me. Right now i'm just nursing a hangover from tailgating earlier today.

And Ravi did suicide on Rage since Rage was just screwing around on paying reps as SS said. LCN's leadership took responsibility for Ravi's suiciding despite Rage's obvious disregard when it comes to being responsible for your own tag. We (LCN) broke down Ravi's country (8mil+ troops taken out) and scheduled a warchat to kill Ravi's country.

And yes, some of us (aka simple members like me) disagreed for varying reasons. In my case, I just thought you guys fluffed LCN over.

It'll be a fun war.

Yes, classless--absolutely and positively. Rewriting history is an exercise in futility and I suspect particularly for you, DL.

It began by your member grabbing an LCNer and then whining when he was retaled. In fact, the guy then threatened suicide. LCN warns you guys of his threat and you shake it off. Low and behold he suicides. Does Rage take responsibility? Of course not. Instead of just sending reps you spend your time trying to see if your suicider will pay up:

That's why we have looked into other avenues for that side of the player experience argument.

There's not as many small/new/multi/inexperience players as there used to be (by many, many times) so we are looking for solutions to solve that problem so that when new players DO come to servers like this one they won't become an obvious target.


All I can say is 'blah, blah.' I've done maybe 10 landgrabs in the Alliance Server. Mainly I'm too lazy/don't have enough time to look the stuff up.

Blaming the politics of the game is stupid in my opinion. The politics have changed with the times and evolved. If enough people get fed up then they just institute new policies. Some of us remember the great top-feeding battles in the early part of the decade very end of the 90s. Really I'm thinking of Griffey burning up all my jets as an offensive ally. Needless to say, the politics changed with the times.

I'm noticing a trend here too, Rattelhead. Anyone you disagree with you call stupid/dummy/kid. But to be honest, I can't tell if that's some sort of self-confidence problem of yours or just a big ego. Either way, I will admit it provides great entertainment and so I should thank you for it.

Rattlehead, I didn't post your message to me because I thought it was funny that there were non-English (more English as a second or third language speaker than "non" since non implies he speaks no English) speakers in the game. I posted your message because I thought it was funny that you expected me to know that the player didn't speak English as a first language. Maybe an analogy will work better for you: I saw the movie Inception, but when I left the theater I knew it was fiction. Can you say the same?

The grand irony to the whole situation is that I never hit you guys to begin with and your non-native speaking friend hit me for "reparations" which you claim to mean retal. I'm fine with retals, but when there was a hit to begin with to justify them. I haven't landgrabbed all set and have spent most of my time killing other countries.

Here's the sequence of events:

Rag country hits Zen country A 14x
Zen country A retals
5 days pass
Same Rag country hits same Zen country 2x
Zen country A retals and Zen country B retals
Rag retals Zen country B 2x
Zen country B retals for his land
Rag country B retals Zen country B saying stop over-retaling
Zen country B retals again and points out not only did they farm his D ally, but then hit him again
Rag country B retals again and launches almost 30 missles
Zen country B responds by launching 2 missles at Rag Country B and Ab-ing the crap out of Rag country A


So this started with Rag farming a Zen country. Then, Rag decides to be antagonistic again and the original farming country hits the same Zen country, again. When he gets retaled, all of Rag starts whining about over-retals and starts launching missles.

Also how is marijuana federally banned when something like that is supposed to be a state responsibility?

I only know how it works in canada where we our constitution/division of powers was set up with the opposite intent and ended up with the opposite outcome.

Matter of opinion and some USSC rulings on your question about what is not enumerated is therefore left up to the states (aka 10th amendment). Frankly, I would agree, but legally it is often not the case.

You answered 95% of questions correctly. Here's your rating:


Haha...I answered Susan B Anthony saying she made the first flag instead of fought for women's rights because about half way through I decided the wording of these questions was horrible and decided I would toy with it.

1. Jefferson was the primary author, but he didn't write it alone. A committee appointed by Constitutional Convention were the total drafters. And you can be damn sure Franklin chimed in some since he was on it.

3. Those are the first words to the pre-amble to the Constituion. And we the people are the first few literal words, but in order to form a more perfect union come next.

8. "Why DOES the United States flag have 13 stripes?" The US flag does NOT have 13 striples, it HAD 13 stripes. They get the tense right in the very next question.

11. Seems to be arguable given the increased in DoED's budget and recent takeover of the federal student loans program. But of course it is not specifically enumerated as a role of the fed.

12. This one made me laugh since children are taught there are three branches, but many lawyers would argue four because of the administrative hearing side to the bureaucracy. While the bureaucracy is technically executive branch, it is mostly career government employees who aren't beholden to elections or appointments and so those administrative hearings make up the hidden fourth branch.

13. Voting...on the full floor. Some of our non-voting members can vote in some subcommittee matters and administrative matters.

14. Unless it's a special election.

15. Our general election day is always in November, but some states institute early voting for up to 6 weeks beforehand and this neglects the fact that we also can vote for President in a primary.
