This gonna start anytime soon? How is it gonna be seeded?

My current timeline has the battle royale on 4/10, entry period starting 4/14 and contest running through most of May.

Though maybe his plans have changed.

Congrats to DpObliVion for winning the guru.

It would be appreciated. So far I've done 73, 74, 75 and 81 and I'm currently working on 76. SBAllen wants to start this thing next week IIRC.

Can't we just wait and see which four years make the main bracket?

To be truthful some of the current hypotheses for the origins of life are almost as crazy as a "mythical being did it." This isn't as easy to prove as evolution.

You'd think they would at least give them an option between the four parties all under the same alliance.

I don't think their leader undergoes elections. The members of parliament do, their next election should be in 2019.

Honestly you can get the same results with the right, you just have to know the right topics. I think Obama has the record of getting the least amount of things done because of it.

I think people are arguing over different definitions of “human”

For example, is a tadpole a frog? It depends on your definition of “frog.” If you’re talking about the adult form of the species then obviously not, but if you’re talking about the species itself then it is. Likewise an embryo isn’t a human because it hasn’t reached the proper lifecycle stage, but human can also be used as a homonym for homo sapiens which makes an embryo (and zygotes) human.

I always found the "when is something human" discussion to be a bit moot when discussing abortions. I mean as a society we are okay with other types of killing humans so why does it matter if a zygote is human?
---

Congrats to DpObliVion for winning the guru.

it's a hard question, when do we become human? what is a human?

THAT being said, Canada also provides government funding for abortions. Canada doesn't have politicians actively writing restrictions in an attempt to close down every abortion clinic in a province/state.

I think you missed the whole PEI thing

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/prince-edward-island/pei-abortion-reproductive-rights-1.3514334

Sure they paid for it, but you had to travel to another province to get it.

I think we're getting polls for those years though looking at the games 1972, 1978-84 will likely be the ones that make the main bracket.

Yeah Vincent was horrible in 2013. He couldn't break 60% on KOS-MOS, a character who just broke 30% against Ganondorf in 2008 and is arguably weaker five years later. He wasn't going to beat Mewtwo and honestly he may not even defeat Phoenix Wright or at the very least he would have sweat the entire match.
---

Congrats to DpObliVion for winning the guru.

To be fair I probably wouldn't do 2009 and 2012 any justice. 1993 is looking to be one of my weaker ones, (Why does GameFAQs hate computer games!).
---

Congrats to DpObliVion for winning the guru.

Is there a deadline yet?
---

Congrats to DpObliVion for winning the guru.

2005 will likely end in the middle of the pack so it's capable of winning a match, Resident Evil 4 and Shadow the Colossus alone will take out more than a handful of years.

It all depends on bracket placement.

I'll do the top, but feel free to write any year if you want

This goes to other people too.

I finally got around to submitting one. I'll continue working on them, with a focus on years without a write-up.

i wonder at what point current events become history, and therefore become acceptable in the classroom. i guess 25 years?

Depends how old your textbook is. My sister's textbook had a bit about Stephen Harper while he was still Prime Minister. Though to be fair it was less than a page long, considerably less than other Prime Ministers who were in power for around a decade. He'll probably be expanded on in the next edition.

Legally, Scotland would need to go through the same process as any other country not a member of the EU, which will take time.

That's what I thought and given how long it's taking nations like Montenegro/Serbia/Turkey Scotland could be on its own for a while which would be disastrous in the short-term

Would the EU accept an independent Scotland? Not quickly at least.

Canada will legalize marijuana on July 1st 2018

http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/liberal-legal-marijuana-pot-1.4041902

The federal government will be in charge of making sure the country's marijuana supply is safe and secure and Ottawa will license producers.

But the provinces will have the right to decide how the marijuana is distributed and sold. Provincial governments will also have the right to set price.

While Ottawa will set a minimum age of 18 to buy marijuana, the provinces will have the option of setting a higher age limit if they wish.

As for Canadians who want to grow their own marijuana, they will be limited to four plants per household.

Cuba, Nicaragua, and Liberia finished paying off their WWI debt before 1932, when everyone stopped paying, while Finland finished paying off its debt after. The UK is responsible for about 45% of the total amount owed. Germany, of course, does not owe anything as the US didn't lend to them during WWI.

Didn't the US forgive UK the debt or was that just in WWII?

The house might, but the senate is almost impossible. Only 9 Republicans are up for election and most of them are safe. Arizona and Nevada might flip, but even if they do and the Democrats defend all 23 seats and gain the two independent seats (though both guys might as well be Democrats) they'd still finish tied at 50 seats with the Republicans holding the tie-breaker.

I'd argue that it's more likely the Republicans will gain seats during the senate election than for Democrats to take over.

Just to clarify can we mention ports in other years? For example can Tetris be mentioned in 1989 despite making its North American debut in 1986?

Where did you get the information that Tetris had a North American debut in 1986? When I searched the site, this was the earliest known North American debut I could find:

https://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/564823-tetris/data

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetris

Also SBAllen called Tetris a 1986 game during the games contest (he made a topic telling us how many games were released in each year)
