    Oh. My. God.

    Most types of storms require clouds.
    A squall is a type of storm which requires clouds.
    Lightning often results from storms with many clouds.

    Is this what it feels like to have one's mind blown? I hope not. It's kind of underwhelming.

    Also, Hinata is adorable in that way that makes the whole thing worth suffering through.

    Okay, but what's the worst part?

    There's a spot on my monitor that makes this thread's title look like "Well I feel olo."

    I thought I'd share, so I did.

    Is that really a single sentence, or are you just pregnant?

    Hello all, and welcome to Fantasy Death Row! This game, which is inspired by a website of the early 2000s that now sells low-dose contraceptives for some reason, is much like Fantasy Football, but with death row inmates. The rules are simple. Each player may pick a team of up to three death row inmates who are scheduled for execution at some point in the next three months. Due to the limited number of inmates, teams are allowed to overlap with each other. Once you have picked your team, follow each inmate's case religiously. If any of your inmates receives a clemency of any kind, post about it here to gain points! If the worst happens and your inmate is put to death, you gain no points. That's the gist of it, anyway. Time for the hard part, which is still pretty easy!

    Types of Clemencies
    Each type of clemency works in a slightly different way. Depending on what your inmate gets, the amount of points changes.

    Proven Innocent
    Exactly what it says on the tin. If your inmate is proven innocent, you gain a lot more points than any other type of clemency.

    Pardon
    Your inmate may not have been proven innocent, but for whatever reason he's free to go and thus has averted death. Less points than innocence, but more than the rest.

    Commutation
    If your inmate's sentence has been commuted, he or she is not free to go, but has definitely averted death. Better than nothing.

    Reprieve
    This one is kind of complicated because your inmate has not averted death, only had it delayed. You gain the least amount of points for this, but you also gain them over time, which means you can rack up a pretty nice amount. Points from reprieves are earned per month and stack with any other points that you might earn later on.



    Classes
    When choosing your team, you may assign a class to each inmate. This is completely optional, but may benefit you if you know what you're doing.

    Standard
    Don't want to get involved in all the complicated stuff? Choose the Standard position for all three of your inmates. You may also use the Standard class if you choose to pick other classes.
    Proven Innocent: 15 points
    Pardon: 10 points
    Commutation: 5 points
    Reprieve: 1 point per month
    Excecuted: 0 points

    Team Captain
    You're betting all your marbles on this one. You can get plenty of points here, but choose wisely because you'll lose a lot of points if he bites it. You must have a Team Captain in order to use the Offender and Defender classes.

    Proven Innocent: 25 points
    Pardon: 20 points
    Commutation: 10 points
    Reprieve: 5 points per month
    Excecuted: -15 points


    Offender
    This guy's your next best bet. You won't gain as many points here, but he's also much safer than the Team Captain if you don't want to lose as many points. You may have up to two Offenders on your team.

    Proven Innocent: 20 points
    Pardon: 15 points
    Commutation: 5 points
    Reprieve: 1 point per month
    Excecuted: -10 points

    Defender
    Finally, this guy is your safest bet, but don't expect much out of him. You won't earn many points, but he's good for keeping your score up if you're already ahead. You may have up to two Defenders on your team.
    Proven Innocent: 20 points
    Pardon: 5 points
    Commutation: 1 point
    Reprieve: 1 point per month
    Excecuted: 0 points

    That's it for the rules! Now, here are the inmates! The full description for each inmate can be found here. Read up on everyone to get a good idea of your chances of winning.

    You don't understand how most Americans' minds work, do you? Any new tax or regulation, no matter how small, will get almost the entire population trying to work against it. Obamacare, which (to my understanding) says that if you are alive, you must have health insurance, is a prime example of this. The first thing most people thought of it was that it takes away our right to not be insured, so they fought it with all their might. In fact, people are still fighting it not because they don't want to be insured but because they feel very strongly about having the option not to be insured. There have even been multiple court cases in multiple states where Obamacare was proven unconstitutional. My favorite was the one in Delaware which involved a bill requiring anybody over the age of 21 to own a gun.


    Now take universal healthcare and apply it to that mindset. Not only is the government taking away my right to not be insured, it's also adding a brand new tax and shutting down a pretty large amount of companies. Americans would be protesting outside the Capitol for months just to overturn that one decision. They'd fail, of course, because our government doesn't really give the **** about us that we think they do.


    Except it does go to doctors. The difference is that it only goes to doctors when it needs to, and that's how insurance companies make their profit. By that logic, we should also have national car care so that all the money that goes to car insurance companies now would go to mechanics instead; it wouldn't go poof.

    I thought it was pretty obvious that I was strictly referring to health insurance companies, which would all go out of business. It could take a complete and total moron to think that car and homeowner's insurance companies would be affected by universal healthcare. As far as I know, a lot of jobs are lost whenever a company goes out of business. The only way to keep all of those jobs would be to somehow integrate every health insurance company into the government's new healthcare system, and with a government designed to be as slow and inefficient as ours, that would take several years as well as most of the money that would be saved if a different government were to make the switch.


    Where I'm coming from is the fact that although universal healthcare is clearly the better system, switching over to it at this point and in this economy would be an utter disaster without over a decade of preparation and billions of dollars to go toward that preparation. You're giving lots of the reasons for why it would work for the system, but none for why the people wouldn't resist it with every fibre of their being.

    Yeah, but then we'll have to raise taxes to pay for it. Besides that, we're several trillions of dollars in debt right now, so we can't afford to put all of our tax paying insurance companies out of business yet.
