Let's just say that your conception of "net neutrality" is quite a ways off.

First they let Comcast block access to Netflix, and then they campaign against Wikileaks. Oh this dangerous internet world will be markedly less neutral (by any definition) or wild in five years. CFC is totally the next biggest priority for the corporate overlords, especially #NES.

We'll all be forced to post on 'poly, because they paid off our ISPs.
 
It would take a lot more than that to make me post on 'Poly :p

Rabbit personality traits
Although generally calm, gentle and loving, Rabbit people can be very ambitious and intuitively know how to get ahead in the world.

They are good listeners, kind and sweet by nature, and are therefore often sought out as popular and trusted friends. Generally noted for their physical beauty, Rabbits like to surround themselves with beautiful things. They have a good eye for art, design and fashion, and are usually at the top of anyone's Best Dressed list.

Others may call the Rabbit timid, but those born under this sign rightly view themselves as wise and cautious.

Rabbits are rarely known to make a move or jump into any new situation without first carefully considering all their options. No one is more surprised than Rabbits when they win a poker hand or hit the jackpot at the races, although at times good luck just seems to come their way unbidden.

2011 Year of the Rabbit



Rabbits are regarded as the peacemakers in any group. They remain calm in any situation, and are very slow to anger.

In close personal relationships they can be very romantic, but their natural cautiousness prevents them from settling down or committing to any one person right away.

At work, they excel by remaining cool and collected, and can be relied upon for extreme tact in delicate business dealings.

Rabbits are most compatible with : Sheep, Dog, Pig

Famous people born in the Year of the Rabbit: Albert Einstein, Leon Trotsky, Frank Sinatra, Pope Benedict XVI, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, David Beckham, Tiger Woods, Whitney Houston

Do you generally read the entire update, or only the part relevant to your own nation/region?

It depends really. If the update quality is good, or if I'm sufficiently interested, or if whatever role I'm playing is important, or if I'm looking for specific details for some purpose. Yes to any of those, then yeah, I probably read through the entire update.:)
 
always all of it... if for no other reason then to appreciate the time and work the Moderator is putting in... but usually out of genuine interest.
 
Also, a question to all:

In general, I tend to mostly play NESes in which I would actually want to read the whole update, although I would certainly concentrate on my little corner of things first and foremost. SOP is - was - to print out the update and map and scan them if/when I have spare time during the next few days.
 
A somewhat hung-over happy new years from Rochester, NY.

At first I skip to my region and anything that involves me, then the whole thing, then my region again.
 
Yeah, you pretty much have to read the whole update, it provides a ton of foreign intel. I mean, you can exploit it to your advantage if you see an opportunity. Of course your opportunities read as the other player's weak spots, so you really have no way to be sure they won't fix them immediately when they are revealed in the update, but as far as people who don't, it's always better to have more information than them.
