if it works out fine, then we will find a way to cut Angel's internet connection more often:-P

Gustavo Lima - balada

even I can remember the chorus:P

Great idea, Henrik!:-)

For some days I had problems because of Safari, but it seems to be gone

what are you doing, Hohiro?:-)

I am spending too much time watching our athletes not to win medals:p

unfortunately the members of the parliaments usually reflect the way the people are. We have a lot of people who complain about the greedy politicians who only think about themselves. But if a new party rises, then their members usually adopt the ways of the older parties rather quickly.

raise the taxes for the rich:P

why are people more crazy about the braves than the hawks? ok, the braves one something.

just to have at least once posted on this thread

Tough sh**! We play Italy - still hoping we can beat them

what is that?

too long since I got some;-)

so what is Diablo III like? I was thinking about getting it.

if another team than the Heat comes through in the East, then the finals will be boring

Usually I am for a team rather than against one. But watching the Clippers game maked me simply want to root against them. Griffin was in the college drama club I assume.

at the moment I'd say the Spurs if they come through in the West else I'd expect Miami with Rose out.

will the Heat get it done this time? I do not hope so:P Unfortunately as a Mavs fan, I will probably hear the first laughs from the Heat fans;-)

I am not a NYY fan. The rest usually develops during the season.

indeed:)

Thanks! I like this one.

I like the idea. If they vote pro Euro, then they should quit striking and return to work to get themselves out of the mess that they created by not paying taxes, bribing,....
If they vote against the Euro, well, take your Drachmen and the remaining Euro countries can focus on solving the crisis in the other Euro countries.

In Germany the occupy campers held their daily morning meeting after days/weeks of camping and it went like "...it is time to start thinking on what message we want to send..."

very... impressive.....

I thought people knew why they are there. Watching this on TV probably did not get them more supporters...

sounds interesting to make the usage a bit more different

My first comp was an APPLE II :(

Perhaps not all kind of units

Only heard about the police actions

Now you get your bonus for the day and apply it. I liked it more before - you had to be a bit more careful. Now it becomes more like an automated routine again.

been on holidays in Paris:) now next holidays in the States. It is a hard life;-)

everything ok now, Lauyee?

Have not thought about all, but I fully agree with #2

I don't like the idea to buy bonus points with turns. Though it might add diversity to strats, I am not convinced that I like the effect it has on the endgame when people seldomnly play turns and then would use the turns for bonus. This would be a clear advantage for people dropping their stock in time. At least it seems to me.

The 15% Bonus for Facism was not enough to make up for the decrease in the decay bonus to play Facism. Nevertheless I like the idea to increase the bonus effectiveness.

Tax has become quite a non-factor in this game for a while.

As you have it already implemented it would be great if you make more use of it. Some proposals:
- bring in a government dependent tax-factor multiplied to the set tax level (e.g. people more strictly adhere to paying taxes because they are forced to)
- restrict the allowed tax-level for some government types e.g. for a Republic only a tax-level between 60-70% is allowed (just as example);
- bring in a time- or landsize-dependent tax factor multiplied to the set tax level (e.g. the longer you are leader the less willing are people to pay taxes:P; the larger your country is the less oversight have you got over your taxpayers;-)
- the tax-level might have influence on your warring readiness or your army strength (you do people something good by lowering the taxes, they are more enthusiastic to fight)
- tax-levels might effect the productivity
- simply adapt the formulae to make the selection of the best tax-level more situation depedent

whatever ideas you have.:)

Still the $corruption is small compared to bushels corruption?
