Combine that with my image of what nerve stalping is,

Anyway......Really archaic, I doubt this is generating any votes for you. In fact, I would believe it woud be taking votes away from you and giving them to your opposition....

Not that I'm complaining....

Uh....a large needle entering a persons body injecting a green gas which quickly expands througouth the entire body causing mass pain in all parts of the body. They cought it in and out until finally the poison either simply disappears or leaves the body through other means.

Logical or not, thats what I always think of when I hear nerve stapling or punishment sphere (except thats a bit more brutal).

That's definitely gory. I always thought of nerve stapling as just putting smallish staple-like needles to every major pain centre and stimulating the aforementioned centres with electrical pulses, producing so ultimate pain that death feels like a picnic.

(Er... besides, how exactly would Tass' gas expand inside the body? It would somehow dissolve to the blood circulation and then be transported around the body until it heats enough to start ballooning? Blah, I'm getting too (pseudo)scientific here.)

at Tass.

Why should I MP? Really now, give me a break. I'm being demonized while the hypocrite who's supposedly was pacifistic is preaching war the moment we come upon a stable capitalist government. Let's not forget also what I pointed out about "atrocities".

Bloody hell, when it's come down to me taking screenshots of my posts because they've repeatedly been deleted (Oh look, another hallmark of "communist" governments, lack of freedom of speach....) (EDIT: Don't worry DE, I'm not accusing you of anything. This began long before you were a mod. It also happened last night. I'm assuming that because I'm being a bit of a "bastard" that people are getting my viewpoints deleted as being flames. Small wonder. They can't attack the logic, so they attack the manner in which it was presented.), I think I'm more than entitled to speak out. This is supposed to be a free colony, is it not? If you want to think of me as a bastard, I really don't give a damn. But at least I'm a damn honest bastard, and I've yet to see that from the unskilled labourer.

Tass, you want to vote for a liar over the rarest thing in existance, an honest politician, than that's your decision. I hardly think I'd want your vote the way you've acted.

Ah, fair enough. I hadn't exactly been following what was happening when he was made mod. But if he doesn't have deletion powers (And why would he have reason to delete my posts anyway for that matter?), any deleted posts would've had to be because someone had whined I was flaming them.

Pan needs a one-way ticket to Pyongyang, we all agree. Still, Archy, my boy, you're being waaaay outta line on this - it's a game, fine? The purpose of Civ games and their derivates was always to vent your evil side by playing like a mass murdering commie genocidal maniac and - unlike in the real world - success ultimately lies in that direction. Deal with it.

Care to back up your words? If I can win an SP game on Transcend by the Ascent without once having been at anything worse than a Truce with my opposition, I'd say that completly shoots your theory out of the water. Deal with it.

Tass, there's only so much one can take before he has to call a moron a moron. If you don't want me to insult you, then stop goading me.
Oh, and if you want to say I'm illogical, then damn well back up your statement instead of trying to put forth a lie as fact.

Well DUH. A smart politician makes all sorts of promises he can't keep to get in the middle ground people, safe in the knowledge that the people at his party's extreme will vote for him anyway. I'm something far better than a smart politican. I'm an honest politician, who's also rather intelligent. Which would you prefer? That I used that intelligence to manipulate you, or that I stuffed the truth down your face no matter if you liked it or not?
