I'd love to check it out some time when I'm free. I probably won't have time to build anything spectacular though. My Minecraft name is Arancaytar.

On the assumption I'm going to stay for some time, I guess I should do this again. :) WA and TNP nation is the Endless Empire of Ermarian. I, Ermarian, as the leader of The North Pacific nation of the Endless Empire of Ermarian, pledge loyalty to the Constitution, Bill of Rights and Laws of...

It's not too difficult to display an additional dimension using size or color. The difficult part would be accurately measuring influence, since the ordinary ranking - and even the ejection cost estimate - isn't fine enough. It might be possible to combine ejection-cost surveys from lots of...

Actually I just spent an hour or so on this. :P

So, um, hey again. I guess most of you'll be surprised to see me here again, apart from Eluvatar and a few who've seen me around on IRC. Also, sorry for that episode last year. RL issues closed in, but I shouldn't have disappeared like that. :pinch: During a recent discussion on endorsements...

I'll run for delegate, if I may. (Oh, and sorry for disappearing for over a week. In short succession of each other, I got sick, lost my glasses, and got a toothache. When Murphy comes calling, he doesn't do half-measures. :P )

Five years, wow. Is Nasicournia still an international presence?

Pajamas. I tend to spend my first week of holidays in terminal laziness.

I confess that Age of Empires II is my favorite RTS ever. (Favorite turn-based would be Sid Meyer's Alpha Centauri.)

The Speaker leads the assembly's proceedings and oversees the form and procedure, opens and closes the vote on proposed bills, and sets the agenda. It basically parallels the role of the Speaker in the real-life US house of representatives.

FINALLY that word makes sense. I was beginning to catch on during the "Crimson" coup, but now I realize that "rouge" has been the correct spelling all along. :rofl:

Let me reiterate that I wouldn't be party to this in any case. I like not being evil. :P But I can't bear baseless speculation without data. If I were a bit more experienced, I would try to create a statistical model and set up a rigorously planned experiment, but I don't know enough to do...
