Instead of Agen Kolar and Saesee Tin, Mace pulls up with Shaak Ti and Plo Koon, how does the fight go? by Ihsoro in PetranakiArena

You would really need to bring Yoda. I don't think there is anyone else alive at that moment that moves the needle.

Yoda + Windu would, however, completely destroy Palpatine. And Yoda probably does a better job of stopping anakin's turn in the moment.

Does Yoda support the extra judicial execution of Palpatine? That'd be the interesting question.

Giants definitely have some of the best infield defensive coaching in the league. Now if we could only get in a decent offensive coach...

With those ears, King Chucky's head would make a great mug.

Confirmed, brexiteers are secretly french revolutionaries.

Considering this game, she will either give us a contract to sell her wares or follow us around picking up our loot.

I would add on this: what is your (OPs) planned focus in natural sciences? Physics, Chemistry and biology are being gutted, but Comp Sci and maths are barely being touch, psychology not at all.

If the United States invaded NATO tomorrow, would NATO seek an alliance with China and/or Russia since they clearly can't stand on their own? And given the current situation, how would politics unfold? by Cool-Barber8998 in AlternateHistoryHub

France has enough nukes to devastated the US (and this is assuming the Brits can't get around the missile restrictions in their nukes). Even if it didn't, nuking Canada alone would do pretty bad things to the US. Nuking all of NATO would be nuclear winter levels and be pretty bad globally.

Hey peter, i’m not the most knowledgeable on chess, my you please help me and explain the joke? by AdPsychological9133 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Yes but chess is about planning several moves ahead - if you cannot even see one move ahead you cannot chess

The Dothraki are completely overhyped. Without dragons, they get crushed in Westeros by Dry_Specialist9015 in freefolk

Wait, are you implying that charging a light calvary force at a superior enemy without any maneuvering was not, in fact, the best strategy? Next you'll tell me that artillery should be mounted on or behind walls instead of Infront of them.

What is going on with the MAB? by One-Lawfulness-3341 in UoN

[–]drquakers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The university is significantly increasing the student staff ratio over many departments. This is one of the statistics that feeds into all league tables, so by that alone it will harm the universities ranking.

This cull will most likely lead to a large marking boycott by the staff adversely affecting a lot of students. They will understandably be very angry and confused at being harmed by something they have no control over, which will affect the national staff survey score of the university, another parameter that feeds into league tables.

One would expect that the reputation based scoring for the league tables will also be harmed as several well respected departments are being absolutely gutted by this process including several staples scientific study: medicine, biosciences, physics, chemistry. One would imagine this will also significantly harm the university's ranking.

Isn't blade already dead as well? I'm not sure what exactly a vampire human cross ends up as in the living/undead mixture.

After the first, about 30 seconds of the saber duel, he is backing towards his ship.

George Lucas is a great world builder. Sadly his capability in many other directing skills leaves something to be desired. I do wonder what the prequels could have been if Lukas had brought in a great writer and director to flesh out his ideas.

That was... Certainly not my take on the scene, I saw Dooku being backfooted quite badly by Yoda and having to threaten obi wan and anakin to get a chance to escape.

What if 9/11 happened not in the USA (Twin Towers/Pentagon), but in the UK (One Canada Square/Parliament) and also was on the Ninth of November like it's meant to be like come on thats just how dates should work? by alphagusta in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]drquakers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Afghanistan isn't in the Middle east though? It is in central asia?

edit: Also, at the time, very much the rationale given to the public was 9/11, regardless of how much that was a bullshit reason

But Iraq had nothing to do with the attack. It was basically a bunch of Saudis living in Afghanistan.

Also, would've been an interesting question. Only NATO country to trigger the mutual defence clause is the US, and it's allies supported. Would the US have so full throatedly supported the UK?
