The word Utopia, itself derives, from the Greek ou-topos, meaning "no place". In 1516 Sir Thomas More coined the term Utopia. "No place" seems appropriate for a society too perfect to exist, but there's more to the tale. It's a pun. The almost identical Greek word eu-topos means "good place". But, "No place" is an excellent name for a concept of civilization that originated in Greece. Ancient Greek civilization seemed to spring forth from nowhere, and the early city-states developed their own identities and ideals of governance, citizenship and culture.

Amid the pressure of great events, a general principle gives no help.

Hey Acid!
Why vote me instead of starting your own wagon?

DW, what is the point of voting the person who has not yet confirmed? I see none.
Hi! Good to see you here, it should be an interesting game :)

So you want to bring the pressure on me, eh? Cool. Just go ahead and start firing off your questions. If someone thinks you've got a case, I'm sure they'll throw a vote on the pile.
This comes across as a bit too defensive to me
What does this level of defensiveness tell you?

Because we're in RVS, also because it'll hopefully get them to start posting sooner.
Why do you want them to post sooner?

Riiiiight.
Because voting the giy who isnt here and has not even confirmed thay they will be here is toooootally going to respond sooooo much quicker because they have been voted... :roll:
Why are you using sarcasm here?

Not defensive, casual. I'm not worried about the vote.
It did come off as quite defensive, if you weren't worried about the vote then why'd you make such a long post (relatively speaking)? Why even post in the first place?

Because this is not the first time I've been questioned this week, so I feel, having nothing to hide, that I'm ready to answer any questions Porky over here might have.

Yep.
In post 44, Porkens wrote:Just an FYI, if you are in ongoing games with anyone in this game, it's best not to refer to it. The rules are very strict on this point. Even "fancy seeing you here" is probably too much.
Yeah, let's not mention that game... :giggle:

To answer the first quote:

Sorry, somehow that ended up in one of the other quotes.

I dunno either. I'm going to go back to watching NCIS, The Flash and doc shows while you argue about gambits and fallacies.

i wasn't arguing about gambits and fallacies just asking you to spew your alignment

which just means make it apparent and obvious in a way that makes it relatively easy to tell whether you're faking townspew or not

1s bp strat is where we have the bp claim if there is one

and if none claims, the tracker claims since we have a doc

based on stats and experience this will have minimal positive effect and any it does have will be outweighted by the time taken by implementation

Huh. Well, I have an opinion but I'd like to hear what a couple specific people have to say about it first.
