It's not a very subtle test, is it.

There were a couple I had to replay.

[Iormlund]

More than a month. But yes

I went off the top of my head, I have no idea what's the going rate at the moment. 

Sixteen weeks in Spain. IIRC 6 weeks have to be taken right away, then the rest as you see fit.

Source: A colleague of mine had a critter a few weeks ago.

AFAIK 480 days in Sweden (divided between the parents as they see fit). If you have twins, triplets etc you get more total days AFAIK, but not 480 days extra per extra kid.

Today I learned that the 2012 online Diplomacy World Cup final lasted till 2016. Players played until in game year of 2005 (the game starts in 1901 and has half year turns).

  Looks like the Turkish player was finally put out of his misery during the 1946 turn. I don't think I'd have felt bad about that after seeing how much longer it went.

[Habbaku]

Russia - no, I never really cared about the big picture. I just used your continued omission as an opportunity to post Harry Potter memes. I found that entertaining, and perhaps there was some psychological value in undermining you and in promoting myself.

Invite Italy to Languish now.

I got that info from this video about the board game, btw: https://youtu.be/oUaLEgzvMQs

I can easily see it.  Experienced players will trust no one and make no deals.  Perpetual stalemate.

It's time to find our Eurovision song. This year is not terrible not great and all songs feel very 80's.

This is the favorite. It gets a little better with the stage show.

Don't they always?

[Josquius]

Very 80s yes. I suspect deliberately so there.
Icelands song last year was genuinely decent. Shame it didn't get an airing.

From an other thread.

I went and got a haircut yesterday.  First since mid-November.  It feels glorious!

Depending on what's going on with my fringe I either have very long curtains or, like Gabrielle, can only see out of one eye

I cannot wait for barbers to re-open (I have a Turkish colleague who tells me that there's an underground network of Turkish barbers that are still open but apparently only for fellow Turks ).

My hair is now long enough that I had to learn to tie it. Pony tails are my go to.

My son, who had 8 months of hair growth, now sports a side cut.

There's usually some 90's Eurodance to be found.

But we will change something quite drastically this year, our song will actually be in Danish.
