Question Regarding CDs
I've noticed that when I click the profiles of people who CD in games, it sometimes still shows 0 CDs on their record. Any reason for it not showing up? Seems to semi-absolve people of CDs?

New Thread Idea
Does anyone know Polish History? Did The Deluge cause such material damage that it doomed Poland to economic and political death spiral, did it devastate the proto-bourgeois, densely populated Northwest at a key moment within a republic when it was fighting with the rural, agrarian South and East thus stunting an incipient movement towards urbanization and development or did it not really have any long term effect?

Shrek Super Slam vs. Mr. Rogers' neighborhood
which one is the good one
obviously Shrek super slam with its destructible environments.

I might as well delete this thread; what a silly question! Of course the destructible Shrek Super Slam wins!
Mr. Rogers' neighborhood is scary.

In my professional opinion, the only thing that Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood has going for it is better graphics, almost photo-realistic even. For the time, the graphics were unreasonably good and can hold up even by today's standards. However, the terrible gameplay completely destroys this game. To start with, Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood doesn't even HAVE gameplay. The closest you can get is by going to http://pbskids.org/rogers/games/ and doing the lame little flash games that inhabit that part of the internet, but that isn't really gameplay in my opinion.

However, Shrek Super Slam offers the best of both worlds. The graphics, which may not be great by today's standards, were groundbreaking at the time and had people asking "Are you watching a movie or playing a game?" The gameplay, on the other hand, is more than groundbreaking. To start with, it offers a gameplay mechanic that few games managed to replicate until quite recently: fully destructible environments. I'm not going to tout that as the main selling point of the game, but it was extremely unique at the time and something that has aged reasonably well. The main gameplay was a perfect combination of easy to learn and difficult to master which lead to a great community scene competitively. In addition, the characters and storyline were both believable and lovable, which is always a huge selling point for games.

In conclusion, Shrek Super Slam is the best video game in the world and Mr. Rogers' doesn't even come close.
Yes why does this thread even exist, the answer was obvious from the beginning.
Who are you random people and why did you copy my name and have stalked me in almost every game that I have been in. Get away from me you freaks nature. Though you be a freak of nature Jesus shed his blood for thee.

One of my flatmates (goes by the name of Kirby) pretty much kickstarted the competitive scene in Shrek Super Slam. He still can't really believe how popular it got.

Scramble for Africa Variant - Gauging Interest
I was wondering how interested people would be in a Scramble for Africa variant. I'm already making one for my friends and me to use, so I could easily put it on the lab for testing once it's done.

Diplomacy: Is Germany Too Weak?
I noticed that Germany is considerably weaker in Diplomacy than it's historical counterpart. In game, Germany can very easily be knocked out by England and France. However, historically Germany was able to fight competently on three separate fronts. Does anybody feel that Germany is a little misrepresented in game?
More importantly, are there any variants that address this?

Feedback for 1v1 Cold War on WWIV map
Hi folks, some of you may have heard me talk on the podcast about bringing the WWIV map to a Cold War circa 1984 1v1 variant. Interested in your thoughts about whether I use the standard WWIV map, the v6.2 version (is there any actual difference in the map itself?) or whether the sealane version would be better. Thoughts?
