Can I ask about your experience of delusions? Also I am ignorant on this topic so excuse me if I appear rude, it is not my intent! How real are the delusions to you; are they indistinguishable from reality or are you aware on some level that they may not be "real". (I don't know if this is an...

Yeah, the point of that game is to answer the least obvious/common answer to the questions. So answering Germany to the question "name a German-speaking country in Europe" would be the worst answer you could give.

Yeah but the point is this; how do we know that Odin actually exists?

Sorry. This is why I prefer face-to-face communication, when you write it it seems obvious that you're being sarcastic but to someone else it looks like your serious.

But surely the mere fact that they were enacting laws and imprisoning people not suggest to you that gay people did exist. If they were only heterosexual people engaging in sodomy why do it if the punishments were so harsh?

Well sarcasm doesn't travel well through the internet. My point was this: you didn't tell people your gay because they would, in blunt terms, kill you.

Yeah, I wonder why? As history shows Europe being very open and non-homicidal when it comes to a person's sexuality.

Actually no it isn't. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality_in_ancient_Greece http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality_in_ancient_Rome http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_homosexuality Ironically, your post may provide a window to the views that were used to justify the...

No, the first rule of AAAAAAA, is you don't talk about AAAAAAA. the second rule of AAAAAAA, is you don't talk about AAAAAAA. I'm starting a schism, from this day forth we shall be known as the AAAAAAAAAAR (Agnostic atheists against the ass-backwards analysis of agnostics and atheists -...

I think your missing the point, in that colour doesn't actually exist. Different wavelengths of light enter our eye and the brain decodes this as a colour sensation. For example, a wavelength of approx. 700nm usually indicates the colour violet. That particular wavelength has nothing to do...

Forts are brilliant. If you say that enemies can just walk around them then your obviously not utilising them properly. Their great for halting an aggressive neighbour when two continents are joined by a tiny piece of land, giving you just enough time to send reinforcements. They are also...

Same with me, always in despotism, never really understood other govs. :confused: Until I came to this forum and decided on a bit of REVOLUTION! I always go for Republic + womens suffarage now, far better economy + research. CIV ROCKS!:goodjob:

The most exciting part for me is the first contact with other civs. Finding out that I'm either going to build a magnificant civ, trading in harmony with the babylonians, or a bloody fight for survival against the bullying Russians and the warlike Zulus. I think its the fear when your solitary...

It was the first couple of times I playing Civ, I used to have only 1 city the entire game, no irrigation or mining or roads, despotism the whole time. Can't believe how much of a novice I was, I came far since then.;)

I used to dread this quiz as I used to have only have one city. So when all the soldiers returned to their homes my entire civ was defensless! May I ask a question, do you have a physical manual i.e (paper book)? because thats what I used to think it was...until recently... it turn out that I...
