I believe the host (who is pro-hammer pro-majority) is trying to tell town to get your shit together and don't rely on a deadline to play the game on auto pilot.

I believe multitabling while behind when nobody will tell me when the day ends is annoying af.

Multi ball?

The realization is good though.

oh, i thought your rant in here was basically it. but please, do go off. what was the rant?

@dunya

This was in response to someone:

I have a big problem with remembrance day, and I was wondering what your take on this is.

The holiday, like you said was initially to honor the men and women who died during the first world war. While today it serves as a time to honor all who served (past & current) in the armed forces.

I think an anti-war sentiment is natural for anyone who tries to really take in the full scope of the brutality of war, specifically the global conflict which gave birth to the holiday, and the one that began some 20 years later.

In my view, the best way to honor fallen soldiers, is to do everything possible to keep people out of that situation. Both reducing the commitment that we have to fielding soldiers, and reducing the negative impact that we contribute to on civilians abroad.

Instead of honoring past soldiers with education and reflection, we honor them with poppies and heroic tales... Remembrance day isn't even observed as a holiday in Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec.

A lot of things that we see in society, in Canada today show that we've learned little to nothing from these conflicts: Pro war sentiment, superiority complex, racism, discrimination

I always find myself getting upset about the handling of remembrance day and trying to explain to people, it's not about buying a poppy and singing Oh Canada, or giving a moment of silence. Take a moment to truly reflect on what was lost, try to think about what they would want as they died in the cold, in the mud, all alone, in the thousands, in the tens of thousands (Canadians), in the millions, tens of millions.

I would say, let's stop taking the time to honor the past with a moment of our time, but let's honor the past by actually giving a shit about what happened. Stop shaming people for not donating to a charity event when the government itself doesn't care enough about it to make it a holiday, or to educate people about it in schools. In my opinion Remembrance day is a farce, because we don't.

Oh, no... I have 4 town reads, but one of them is super not obvious

I have 3 town reads, all of which I town read for the exact same reason.

I can confirm, town loses if we don't get a majority hammer by a certain time.

I would kill Dunya

Is Dunya a scum, or a NPC?

I might kill Mac over Marmot actually

We're only not talking about the same thing if you're wrong.

#Letsweforget

But yeah, it's recognized across the British Commonwealth to varying degrees.

We recognize it as a holiday nationally, but the province that I live in & the province that I work in don't recognize it. I usually post a rant every year about remembrance day because it's sickening how people give lip service to the holiday, or buy a poppy without paying attention of any of the lessons they are meant to take away from it. I haven't prepared one this year... It kind of snuck up on me with the house and all, me being overloaded.

the game isn't work! i'm having a blast!

You have Remembrance day as well?

Actually, playing in a Urist game can't really be considered fun, so maybe it is work. Were the mods required to play in this?

doubt

If you don't know who's angleshooting, then you're probably not angleshooting.

I have some very high confidence tone reads early on.
