Part of administratorial responsibility lies in making a point of not using one's power for idiotic purposes. Drakey could, I expect, wreak havoc on the forums (like rename all forums to "IMBAN"), but I suspect we'd have a new admin pretty soon afterward. He's not bound so much by limits on his power as by the unwritten rules of what makes sense. That, and his own Code of Conduct of course. ;) -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

You never defined "round", nor "square". If "square" a geometrical shape with four points connected by four equal lines at right angles to each other, then you're right. "Square", as it does in Britain iirc, can also mean "a public, open area in a town" (or "plaza"), as in "Trafalgar Square". There are of course round squares in a lot of cities. It is definitely a matter of language and definition. -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

Seeing as how little detail the general shape of the world and its other continents got, I think including one drug is perfectly enough. The purpose of the game isn't Skribbane (though Alo will disagree on that point). -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

Three years, and a single term. And to replace the "reelection incentive", the president pays a substantial sum into the treasury from his private assets, which he only gets back (sans interest) if at the end of his term his approval rating is above, say, 60%. What do you think? Oh, of course president wouldn't be such a popular job then... -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

html code doesn't take that much, I'm sure. If you send just the html file without the pictures, would that fit?
