I'm new here and boy did I play one of my first games stupidly. (Just ask the guys in game 14122078). I believe in this board and I think that we need to support the club to the best of our abilities and spread the word that here is still a good place to have fun. I will strive to do better and become someone that everyone will like to see show up to play.

Also, I don't think the dice here resemble anything like reality.
Dice will always be a complaint I think. In regards to the forum -- I KILLED IT. IT REALLY IS TIME I STOOD UP, HELD MY HANDS UP AND BECAME ACCOUNTABLE! WE HAD SO MANY MEMBERS WHEN I TOOK OVER AND THE FORUM WASN'T BLAND ENOUGH FOR MY LIKING OR LIBERAL ENOUGH. I RUINED IT FOR YOU ALL AND I CAN STILL HANG AROUND LIKE A BAD SMELL TO ENJOY THE LACK OF ENJOYMENT I HAVE INSTALLED! IF THAT MAKES ALL YOU MAD THAT'S NOTHING INTO COMPARISON TO HOW LACK FELT AFTER I'D KNOCKED A COUPLE OF HUNDRED GRAND OFF THE VALUE OF CC. WHAT ARE FRIENDS FOR AFTER ALL?

Fine! I'll make an exception in your case.
Give me equality or execute Gillipig!
We should all have the right to equal opportunity. We should not, however, have a right to equal results.
What if, in a theoretical society, everyone could be guaranteed happiness. Would you still be against equal results if the equal results was that everyone was happy?
Isn't that question pointless and useless? It uses an impractical assumption. The focus should be on the process because if the results are changed but the process is not, then you'll get results which deviate from the planned results.
This is the basic reason why redistribution cannot be sustainable and why plans for redistribution have failed.
It is pointless if you're trying to find a philosophy you can build a society on (commuinsts will disagree on that though), but it is not pointless if used as a thought experiment. i.e what is it I'm really so keen on with this idea? that I think it brings about a positive outcome, or that I like the process so much that the outcome doesn't matter? In my opinion no process is holy, not even democracy. If a system doesn't bring about a positive outcome, then it doesnt matter how fair, equal and just that system is. Some outcomes on the other hand, I would argue can justify any means. However most desirable outcomes needs to apply at least decently acceptable means to be justified. Unless we're talking about the survival of our species using any means to get to that outcome is hard for me to accept. However the outcome is what is important, not the process of getting there.

To answer that question, I'm focused on outcomes. Consequentialism ftw.
But to get particular outcomes, ya still need to focus on various processes.
This is basic means-end economic thinking. We do this all the time when we leave the house to get groceries or when we type up a response. Why not apply it to philosophy?

She's a good girl, loves her mama Loves Jesus and America too She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis Loves horses and her boyfriend too, yeah yeah
And it's a long day livin' in Reseda There's a freeway runnin' through the yard I'm a bad boy 'cause I don't even miss her I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart
And I'm free, free fallin', fallin And I'm free, free fallin', fallin
All the vampires walkin' through the valley They move west down Ventura Boulevard And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows And the good girls are home with broken hearts
And Im free, free fallin', fallin Now Im free, free fallin', fallin
Free fallin', now I'm free fallin Now I'm free fallin, now I'm free fallin Now I'm free fallin, now I'm free fallin Now I'm free fallin, now I'm free fallin
I wanna glide down over Mulholland I wanna write her, her name in the sky I'm wanna free fall out into nothin' Oh, Im gonna leave this, this world for a while
Now Im free, free fallin', fallin Now Im free, free fallin', fallin Now Im free, free fallin', fallin Now Im free, free fallin', fallin
That song becomes infinitely better if you switch "Free fallin" to "Free ballin."

Hmm,i wonder why they can not implement some much easier system, where one click will bring you to right place. I need to write this to Forums.
( damn, i need to press two times to come into forums, good thing its that im not blind so that i still can catch this tiny forum in up pocket of screen, i wonder what will be next bad surprise for community ? )
