How on earth did this turn into an argument about the migration patterns of Europeans vs. Americans?

It's a better argument than the one that was going on to be fair.

Ah but the most important question is "how many coconuts can they carry as they migrate?"

On second thought, perhaps we shouldn't travel to regionals. They are a silly place.

MY two cents:

I stopped going to tournaments because at my LGS would always give me a bye round because of several reasons told to me each time. Either there was a odd number of players or because of "ranking" or because "just because". I was bummed each time because the reason I pay $10 to enter is so that I can play ...not win. I know that a bye counts as a win... but I never have a chance to win the top 4. I just want to play MORE than 2 matches!!!

Ok, with that said... FFG needs to either completely revise the tournament bullcrap OR start more events/organized play that let players PLAY.

Edit:

TO's deciding ranking, strength of schedule and pairings is just a bunch of BS... they end up just picking and choosing based on friends and personal likes/dislikes.

It's a simple question of weight ratios.

Write an email to FFG so they deal with this sh*tty TO. I mean this is absurd.

Well if they'd of been allowed to introduce universal healthcare Americans as a whole would of been better off given it'd cost less than Medicare.

But no the republicans are in the pocket of the insurance companies so caused it to be so watered down it was pretty toothless.

Just a shame the politicians of America don't care about the people they are meant to serve unless they are rich.

C'mon. And Democrats aren't in their pockets? You need to do some research. Nancy Pelosi scored millions from the insurance industry over the last decade.

The whole debate about universal health care was staged theater for the benefit of EVERY politician, regardless of party affiliation. The entire system is corrupt, not just one party.

But back on topic...

I also want to pipe in in the off-topic comment as it's a gripe of mine having immigrated from to USA from europe, where I had wonderfully free health-care (free as in pre-paid through normal taxes), then I had to deal with the worst (in the 1st world countries) and most expensive corrupted health "care" in USA. I can't stand american doctors. And don't blame the republicans when it was Obama who pushed for it. the two main results were: increased and now mandatory insurance costs for the majority, and a marginal benefit for very poor people and people with pre-existing conditions.

as far as I know the only non-corrupt politicians is Sanders.

OK now that I've had my say, back to X-wing!

Hey, let's get the thread locked!

Now imagine what that would look like if the Supreme Court hadn't gutted the Medicaid expansion.

Perhaps you could make everyone happy by using the kittens as a taco ingredient?

On second thought, that's far too cruel. We'll just train the kittens to prepare tacos, create a YouTube channel, and retire on the ad revenues.

(That's how YouTube works, right?)

why limit ourselves to health insurance or junk food when we can combine them? junk food should be illegal because of the increased costs to health care we all have to subsidize!
