I have to dis the lancet again. seriously, 90%? use better methods.

Of course, if the Japanese player knows what he is doing, the Allies Will be reacting to him.
But my point is: Europe is probably more scripted, historically.

According to this article it’s possible to play via e-mail… which of course means it’s possible to play it via a forum  8-)

I especially like this suggested game:

WW1 or WW2 campaign

Possibly set in 1914 in the west or east (corps level units), or a WW2 eastern front battle (division level units).  We could have teams of players, with a hierarchy, as only one set of orders would be submitted, thus minimising the umpire workload.  Teams could organise as they wished, but typically players might take roles, such as C in C, intelligence chief, operations chief etc.  They could communicate with each other all the time on plans, analysis etc. without disturbing the umpire’s deliberations.  They would not control the individual combat units directly, but rather act as the command staff of an army or army group.  The would specify attacks, divisions to be involved, date and objectives.  Combat could be resolved by the umpire using a commercial boardgame on the battle, or a PC game such as The Operational Art of War.

Oh Civility, why can’t we seem to keep it together…  :|

Ah…part of one of my jobs is to deal with barcodes and get them “in the system.”  Actually, this is not surprising that it works, and is probably used regularly around the world.  I’ve done cashiering, years ago, and it’s a pretty mindless, mind-numbing job.  You end up going on autopilot until something interrupts your momentum: a question, something isn’t in the system (barcode doesn’t ring up), a spill, etc.  This is a little more reasonable to me than the cashiers whom accept photocopied traveler’s checks and $3 bills.

Nut -  Each item with a barcode has a unique number to it, so that it is identified correctly and the proper amount is charged.  There is a server somewhere that has a database of the barcodes, so when read, it reports back to the cashier station the amount.  These guys photocopied another item’s (legitimate) barcode, and pasted over the calculator barcode, so that when it was scanned, it came up as another item entered as $10.  If they were smart, it was another calculator, but could have been anything.

F___, My mama is 79 years old!!! She remembers WWII and the US Depression.

Damn! My grandfather is 70!

My father is 47, but here is the unusual thing I am 31 :o

I should mention my Son is 4 :D

If you want to know the answer to this question all you have to do is ask a southerner “who is the most hated General in history?”

They will always say Sherman.
