YYYYMMDD is the best date format clearly, because it naturally sorts correctly.

MMDDYY is however an acceptable choice for true blooded Americans.

Slytherin's prime virtue is Ambition.  HRC is ambition given physical form.  I don't see how there can be any doubt about this.

(Medieval | Knights Hospitaller, Holy Roman Empire, etc.) is listed on the hate list but not on the like list.  I think its chances of making the next round are low.

Team Valor rules, Instinct drools!

I think that the pokemon are different by location, but pidgey and rattata must be everywhere.  I see different mid level pokemon in different places though, lots of magicarp at the lake near my house.

I don't think so.  I really doubt that Sanders will run as an independent.  And while I do think that Johnson will be able to pull away enough votes to hit the 15% threshold and prevent either candidate from clearing the 50% mark I don't think he'll actually win any states.

there's a multiplayer option too right?

 

Yeah, but I haven't done it yet.  Don't really plan to either.

I've heard it can get kind of repetitive/stale once you get out from the initial expanding/building phase thoughts? 

It certainly changes, and empire management is a bit less interesting, though as your empire becomes larger factions become more prevelent and need to be managed more so its really just different (unless you enslave/purge the dissidents which is what I am doing for my first play through which does make it easier.)

Wars become more interesting later on though when people have more fleets and ftl can take you deeper in for raids and such, so its still fun there.  But as the interesting parts switch from empire management to wars I can see it being a bit stale in the rebuilding phase between wars.

Stellaris is awesome btw, totally recommend it.

I've been legally able to drink for over a decade, but I never do.
