  1. But then there's valk rand, which makes everyone dispell capable.
  2. I really wouldn't call the way some people talk about Obama constructive in the least. More like destructive. It's amazing how this discussion reminds me of GMing. Players just say "fix it." Economic problems? Fix it, or you suck. But you have to fix it now. As for classified info, it's all in files and he reads them. I really believe we only know half of what's happening on this continent in terms of technology, warfare, and bizarre happenings. Don't tell me we don't have some knowledge of extra terrestrials that they don't want to release to the public, or knowledge on perhaps 2012. Call me a dork but it's a a fact that they keep stuff from civilians, we just have to imagine what it might be.
  3. Truth is, just like the GM team, you don't know the whole scoop unless you're in it, and even then you'll miss a few things if you're not paying attention. We're all outsiders to the political circle, in which only a few men and women are enrolled into the ranks of the presidency. Truth is, presidents probably have the shocks of their lives when they get drafted on things no civilian knows, things that are too classified for the highest military officials. Chances are Obama knows more than we do on the state of our defense etc. Truth is the world is run by dishonesty, because honesty isn't what makes a good quality politician it seems. Truth is you're all pointing the finger too early at a man that does not have a life outside his presidency, and who knows about things your head would spin over, I can guarantee it. That is called, being unfair. Oh but after all, you're Americans. You're free You have your right of speech. You're also not helping yourselves by thinking negatively. ...just a thought...
  4. Knowing you Daniel, you'd have very unhappy moments. However, I shall participate in this exercise! (must use fancy words) Character name: Boss Job: Nanny (I mean that nicely because, I really do enjoy almost everyone I've spoken with on the server, even some of the rude ones, though I draw the line in places.) Reasoning: I wish I could put this job on my CV, because it's the toughest one I've had thus far in my short life. But then I'd get turned down from most jobs because they wouldn't understand the implications of GM.
  5. For now, rejected.
  6. Remove SB effect from Sinx weapon. -Accepted-
  7. He's the head honcho. There is no one above him, no "higher up" so to speak. Just because he gets advice doesn't mean he'll follow exactly what they say. One person may think his advice is paramount, but Obama's got dozens of other voices to listen to, which are saying complete opposite things from each other. I don't get why people expect others to follow advice; giving advice only means you're trying to make a decision clearer, not decide for them. He may already have a plan, an internal feeling of what's right, in which case all these advice givers fall on deaf ears. Right now the battle isn't about the generals and the military, It's about people and figuring out the human psyche. This whole concept of, if you don't fight you're weak, is completely dumb. That's what the terrorists wanted in the first place; only in this case there was a chance they would still retaliate regardless. But I suppose what Obama's trying to distinguish if they're done threatening the U.S. and if it's safe to pull out. I don't think any American will admit it, but you guys are much happier with the war over there than on your owl soil. Paradoxically, it's selfish and barbaric to bring the fight to their home, when the majority of people there have no idea why you're bombing their land. Obama wanted to pull out because your troops are dying, and because it is a MASSIVE drain on the U.S. resources. And here some of us are pointing the finger saying he's creating more deficit, but yet you think it's a bad idea to pull out of Iraq. That's one big contradiction. By the way McCain just looks like a scumbag. At least Obama gives a genuine smile, sounds honest, and can let lose a little bit (like when he dances). His black character really shows in some spots and I like it. White people tend to be a bunch of stiffs in North America (yeah I'm white). As for Canada's health-care, neither my mom nor I have heard of this bankruptcy thing. Most Canadians pay for their health-care, it's just in the form of taxes. There are hiccups and mistakes and bureaucracy here too (to put it nicely), but there are thousands of Americans who can't afford to go to the hospital if they break something. A big problem here in Canada is people taking advantage of the system. People come in for the sniffles, and that drains the money and the resources.
  8. I meant sleep but ok :<
  9. Happy Halloween :) I hope you all enjoy the patch. Bat rucksack is my fav <3
  10. That second picture looks very much like what I want to do at the moment zzzz.
  11. Well what Jay is trying to say is very valid. Scale it down a bit to something like a hockey coach or even a Game Master. New Game Masters used to be heavily picked on because it takes time for them to show their qualities. It is very true that most don't make it, and it's fair to keep in mind that Obama might fail; but insufficient time has passed for everyone to be making assumptions. America was promised a health-care reform YEARS before Obama even thought of presidency; and so far he's the only one who seems to be trying to make it happen. Problem is China's taking your debt and they're sick of it. America's experiencing the same thing that happened to Great Britain during WWII: Britain was heavily in debt and they asked the U.S. for help, and the U.S. only helped them on the condition that they retreated from many of their territories, which effectively put the United States as the World Super Power. And now ironically it's very close to losing footing with the Chinese, which basically owns your country economically. Believe it or not, humans lose and gain confidence depending on the critiques of those they lead. This is especially true of the President of the United States, where it's democratic and free; The president knows and feels when the people are against him; you think having huge opposition helps? All this preemptive negativity isn't helping his game and in turn it's not helping you or your people. It's one thing if he's been in office for two terms and has done fuck all, but it's another if he's barely a year in. He hasn't been given a proper chance to make the differences he promised. These promises are on a global scale, they will affect the entire world, and they CANNOT happen just like that. If you were president, do you think you'd sleep well at night?
  12. That's right, you can always come up to Canada and enjoy our healthcare :D Sorry, I'm not even American, and I know that Obama inherrited the deficit, which Bush's two terms in office (This is where I ask you how that happened) caused. Of course if you're trying to pick up the pieces you'll create more deficit, there's no way around that. The worst economy you guys had in the recent year happened before Obama was elected. I'm not out to offend, but I find a lot of Americans have this vaunted idea about rights and opinions. Sure, it's the land of the free and all but the entire world is affected by what happens to the United States, and all these countries that have free speach like you do have only one difference when talking about the presidency: that they couldn't vote. There is a point where opinions are just that: your right to talk freely. You shouldn't take that right as a flag of argument against others, but that's my opinion, I hope you understand.

    I hope that's a typo.
  17. Anyone who can carry 200 yggs at once while exchanging berries for tickets will use this. The point of updates is to make everything better, so what if the majority of users will be farmers; there's a demand for berry tickets so let's help them out a bit.
  18. Well regardless, accepted.
  19. There is a feature in guild hideout that (for now) would let the owning guild turn into monsters. Therefore once it's implemented, and if that aspect of guild hideout is kept, it wouldn't be anything special if we had a disguise room also.
  20. Didn't I already agree to this in another suggestion? >.o
  21. ^Just gross xD Yo mama so fat, that when she jump for joy she got stuck! (Bow to Russel Peters)

    Jokes

    You don't understand, I was in stitches when I read this. Oh my gosh...*wipes tears away* I find these funny too, but not as much as yours: How do Chinese parents decide on a name for their newborn? Throw a quarter in the garbage disposal. Ching Chong Chin Chang And Confucius say...virginity like bubble. One prick - all gone!
  24. Last Baby Standing? Yeah sure, why not sounds fun. -Accepted- PS: let's use a new map. Any suggestions?
