What is interesting is that anyone can catch a turn. I mean, someone wins the lottery every week. What is interesting is that Crossnerd thinks this is some sort of winning strategy.

Catch a vibe and relax. That’s win-win-win

Getting creative with consequences also works often. Like, maybe you don’t need a whole week off, but take the night and maybe write a paragraph about how we’re gonna move forward differently as a team.

Imho for forum users it isn't about punishment as a "tool", it's just to show that it actually exists as a consequence then people stop.

Imho they start insulting each other like crazy just because they think they will pay no consequences doing that.

Not unlike students protesting illegally occupying property

Who the **** modded you? This is worse than that time Rococo got modded, or that time Luckbox got to talk.

No, dude. Just means you hit your gin card on the turn. Hopefully I need not explain why hitting on the turn is better than hitting on the river.

Oh man you're the mod?! I thought it was gonna be victor or pointless words or that cryptic bloke who writes in coloured font and like buttons.
Does this mean I have to be all deferential to you? Or at the very least civil, respectful, even nice?

And with that in mind, Happy Mother's day! Assuming you're a mother!

Dick pics are always well received. That is what BJ told me, anyway.

Although, I have, and don't judge me for this, but I have kinda did the camgirl thing. I'm pretty sure that whatever I did there, wasn't well received.

It’s CV who’s Lucifers protege. That’s exactly the sort of error I expect from someone who plays a c4 closed Sicilian.
