We were talking about board games in general (or so I thought)

if I was on the Island I would be trying to impress women, trying to find food and shelter, trying to get off the Island, playing games and stuff to fill up my time

in that order

Interestingly enough, the idealist Socialist Zionists predicted that neither would Israel. Go figure.

My vote would be to destroy it. After all, it could fall into the 'wrong hands'

Plus we wouldn't really need it Who are we going to attack?

Would we have free love? Do you think that would work out ok? Or maybe just polygamy with women marrying many men?

Obviously, you guys have it all wrong. There must be a "Official" Police force. As there will be only a couple of Hundred or So, it'll only have to be Me (Da Chief) and someone else (Da deppity).

I mean come on...crimanil problems handled by the Public? That's Mob Rule!

I'm in favor of free love, but maybe group marriage would be cool too.

Can we draft former Apolyton women, such as BlackWidow and Werefox? We will need them, to build up a large brood of children to take care of us in our old age.

yah from my studies I do to

I use to favor a communist nation where everyone lived in group homes and there was no such thing as mothers and fathers

then I studied different communes for many years, and found out that we are not built that way

The Old West managed to get along with an extremly low proportion of women to men for many years. Women were shared by many men (prostitution), and it worked. Since we aren't getting an input of new women, and we're hopefully gonna have to wait a while before the extra men die out, we have to figure something out.
