Bows, Arrows, and Shooting Stuff

Classic advice! Nothing says safety like a day of drinking and fireworks 😂 Stay safe out there! Fireworks are definitely a hot topic with the Holidays—Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year—coming up. I’ll be in France for Christmas and New Year, and I’ve heard New Year’s celebrations there are amazing with fireworks. Found this tourism statistics interesting too, https://gowithguide.com/blog/tourism-in-france-statistics-2023-all-you-need-to-know-5275. So excited!

Hi! I’m not too sure where this post goes, so @Panther feel free to move it.

What’s the longest game ever played on this forum? As in, the longest gap between the first turn played in a game and the last turn played? Games that achieved this number due to huge gaps in between turns count. Thank you!

@ABWorsham4

I’m sorry.

Hello,
I’m curious if anyone can help me with some general advice for in person Tournaments. For one thing, would it be a frowned on/weird to use small post-its to mark the board on my turn? I tend to forget a non-combT move from time to time, and I’m hoping the post-it method will be a better way to avoid that than having to double and triple check the board in a timed game.

Secondly, do teams talk in code at the table or do they just openly discuss in front of their opponents?

Number 4 from the top is Soviet Marshal Aleksandr Vasilevsky.

yea think its a good topic

Arming the populace is the same theory as building Nukes in the Cold War.  You don’t plan on using them, you just want the other side to know you COULD use them.

Most prisoners when polled would say they would rather invade a home when no one is home.  Not to avoid capture, but rather because they are afraid the homeowners might have a gun!

But you know me.  I think we should get rid of Racial Diversity Class and replace it with Firearm Safety and Marksmanship Class in public schools.

To blame “The Media” for societal degeneration is a bogus argument.  Media reflects what is occurring in our world and culture.  It is not a causative entity.

If you want to look for the cause of the degeneration in our society (if indeed it actually is degenerating…  we seem to have improved dramatically from the crime ridden culture of the 1970’s where our cities were considered to be on the verge of total collapse due to crime) then you need to look to the breakdown of the family and the community first and foremost.
