What about all the other things Trump has done, OSG? The things that stick out for me are the travel ban, firing Comey, and the conflicts of interest.

Saw an eagle fishing earlier, was kinda cool. It presumably caught something 'cause it hit the water then buggered off somewhere.

Dems are leading 11-2 in the Congressional baseball game.

guess that's what happens when your 2nd baseman gets a 7.62 in the hip.

Excuses excuses.

To be fair, left to their own devices, cats do a pretty good job of that themselves

I think I'd literally die in 50c.

Yep that is certainly the danger zone.

However, I heard the chanting of screaming children can lower the temperature.

I never understood why human sacrifice is generally a child or young woman. Why not sacrifice an aged person? At least that way they (at least feel like they) achieved something in their life.

unvote, byraway. FoU is likely to have my vote at the end of the day, but I'd like to reach the deadline rather than hit him with a hammer.

It seems to me that part of your case comes down to you distrusting Shakerag for claiming miller.  Is this correct?  How familiar are you with miller claim practice here?

To be fair that and the question of how Lenglon's fusion ability works. The initial vote and question was for a bit of pressure, then Lenglon went off the fuckin' handle, so I thought there was something to it. Evidently she's just a dick :P

Alternatively, we both assumed the other was being super srs with the voting and pressure.

Anyway, I'm reasonably familiar, though I've only played two games prior to this that it came up: firstly, one in which everyone got a bit freaked out by the Miller claim and investigated the Miller, and the other in which there was 2 Millers, which involved Leafsnail saying that the response to both of the kooks claiming in their first post meant they might try a fake Miller claim as scum to see what happened.

Shakerag was also present in the latter, and I recall the first game I played with him saying he liked to mess around with meta (he said his, but he's canny enough to do it with site meta too I imagine) so I was wary of that, plus Lenglon pretty much immediately hitting a player we can't investigate with a fusion ability and saying "nah bro it's okay I'm town, Shake's checks out" as though that even means anything.

Frankly, I think it's a medium- to long-term danger to town. If it's true, scum can deflect onto the Miller 'cause they aren't easily trusted, if it's not, well, piss all has happened this day, they might just coast by until it's too late. Especially since they have vote-stealing abilities too. Normally a town-aligned thing, but webadict's a dick too so that doesn't necessarily mean it is.

That's a good idea, nyah. Finding another scummy target will probably be much easier than thoroughly examining everybody, nyah. As a bonus, it'll hopefully get some activity going, nyah.

How goes the search, sailor?

Can y'all provide some feedback on this whole hector-Lenglon back and forth? I'm worried I'm letting my not insignificant frustration cloud my judgment.

It might even get you assholes to actually post for a change. :P

Do... do you understand how the game works? I'd quite like to refine my read on you, which you refuse to allow me to do, 'cause you're basically saying "nah, fuck your questions, scum", which I guess is telling in and of itself.

I made things easier for you by giving you a template, you literally just have to fill in the blanks. Why do you not want anyone to get a stronger read on you?
Lemmie explain what I mean by 1-bar of service, and why I havent done any rereading of the thread, at all, ever since I fused with shakerag.
I brought up my unread replies page at 17:34. which finished loading at 17:36. I clicked new on this thread at that time, and the timestamp loaded at 17:38 BUT your latest post didnt load till 17:44. I then hit reply at 17:45, which loaded thankfully at 17:46. I then typed up this reply without looking at the old posts shown below on the reply page because they take forever to load, and then typed this message to you.
I can give you the quotes you want when it wont LITERALLY take an hour to load the old pages alone, with zero time spent actually reading them, which will be on the 17th or so.

Also, sorry that I was irate earlier, I had been spending hours breathing dust and playing with C-wire, had a headache, and I shouldnt have been posting at all.
I didnt even notice your template post until this time loading the page while waiting for it to let me see past webs votecount.

Having said that, dont dodge my question. Not even you believe the what youre saying, so quit it already and just say what youre really after.

What question did I dodge? What am I selling? If I'm selling a case on you, surely you can tell me the read I have on you?

any other questions? glancing at your template you just repeated the same shit I already answered and numbered for you so that sack of crap can go piss right the fuck off, but if you have something worth reading I'd welcome it.

You didn't provide much in the way of response to it the last time, hence the "fuck your questions, scum" thing before.

You seem to have ignored the fact I asked you to explain your case on me, seeing as how you went from "this is a null thing you're doing" to "obvscum is obvious" over the course of a post or two, and your case, from my admittedly biased perspective, looks wholly manufactured, like you worked from the conclusion backwards.

I forgot about flabsy, though that's mostly is along the lines of "well you're gonna have to try to explain why you used a 1-shot on someone who was going to die anyway" so yeah.

I never really figured out doing FOBs. I get the idea on how to do the actual sneak-in-and-wreck-someone, since there's two required missions for that. But do I just pick somebody's base and off I go to ruin someone's day? How safe is my stuff, can someone just murder/kidnap off all my staff and resources and leave me with an empty Mother Base?
Sniper rifles? As in just regular ones and not the "BOOMANTI-TANKROUNDSTOTHEFACE" sniper rifles?
I'd assume normal sniper rifles, as I'm pretty sure you can't get a suppressor for an anti-tank rifle.

You can get a supressor for one of the anti-tank rifles, that's what I use for FOB missions 'cause everyone went for the super heavy armoured guys way back when I was doing it.

The FOB missions are basically whatever resources are on whatever rig type they attack (so combat, R&D, base management etc.) and they can steal only whatever resources and people are available on that platform, which I'm reasonably sure you can see if you go to the training tab in the FOB menu.

Another thing I wish Europe would do, in addition to other measures, is to target the smugglers. Arrest or assassinate them. If Europe makes being a people smuggler extremely hazardous to one's health, it will reduce the number of smugglers, thereby driving up prices and reducing flow out of Libya.

Arrest or assassinate them.

assassinate

Extrajudicial killings for the win. Works for Duterte, amirite?

Alternatively, any war on drugs. Pushing up prices is going to make it more appealing to criminals, not less.

I don't think it's sensible for a government - any government - to a) say they're too weak to be able to stand on their own and b) ask a foreign government to intercede on their behalf in an internal conflict.
