    Could  you add a wars section?

    Wars:

    1. Proxy War
      • The Knights Radiant entered the war on August 24th, 2015 in defense of its protector, The Syndicate, against the Viridian Entente in what would be later called the Proxy War. The war ended on September 1st with an admission of defeat from the Viridian Entente. 
    2. Oktoberfest
      • The Knights Radiant declared war on the Dutch East India Company on October 17th in defense of its ally, The Syndicate. On October 21st, The Knights Radiant extended hostilities to include the Brotherhood of the Clouds. On October 23rd, the Brotherhood of the Clouds surrendered to the coalition. On November 7th, nearly a month after the start of the war, the Dutch East India Company surrendered to the coalition.

    I like the voting to decide tbh. This is more of a community thing than alliance thing anyway~

    I nominate Infinite Citadel

    If we have a few people making polls, we can make a list of polls and future polls, then they just need to be posted by one of the poll-makers. each poll maker can have a month to post polls (or a week or whatever). That way it's not all on one person. 

    accept etc

    As the scenario is laid out, I'd give them the extra change back, even if they were a jerk.

    Yep. If I noticed immediately, I'd just hand it back. If I noticed it a mile down the road like Alex Taylor was saying, I'm not driving back to fix their mistake.

    One day we will be able to print organs for people, but I don't believe that we should. Are we not just playing God?

    I can understand not wanting to grow brain dead human clones and harvesting organs (there's some ethical issues there for sure). But simply cloning and printing organs? That's science increasing the quality of human life, it doesn't matter if it's playing "God" or not.

    Yeah, seems to me we'd be better off simply cloning individual organs or body parts. 3D printing has a lot of potential, maybe one day we'll be able to print pretty much anything as long as the necessary matter and energy is available.

    Don't change the poll now. Growing a new organ is no fun for the topic. 

    Also good luck at 3D printing a cell xfd. 

    It'd definitely be easier to simply clone the individual organs or body parts. MIT is currently working on 3d printing livers, they haven't been able to do it to scale yet, but it has a lot of potential: http://www.3ders.org/articles/20140622-mit-researchers-building-mini-human-livers-with-3d-printing.html 

    Something I could definitely see myself working on some day :)

    Jobs?

    in Sparring Grounds

    I'm currently a graduate student working to get my PhD in molecular genetics. Due to the fact we don't get paid a very large amount, I also have a part time job for an internet based company where I essentially look over reports. That job is painfully boring, and is where I spend most of my time on PnW (other than checking the forums during incubations/breaks while I'm in lab).
