12/13   http://www.globulos.com has serious fault tolerant/scalabitily issues.
        Clearly it's written by French artsie programmers who make cute
        looking GUIs but have very little understanding of scalability.
        \_ then don't play it.
           \_ When I tried to play I couldn't...  Not good for popularity.
        \_ what problems were you having? the only problem i noticed was
          finding an empty game, so i usually just create my own. play
          viral pursuit if you want to stick to 1 player games that dont have
          scalability issues.
        \_ What do you expect, they are French after all...
           \_ Aesthetic goes before functionality. You dumb Americans
              just don't get it.
              \_ grrrrrrr. don't even get me started.  fucking frogs.
              \_ So how do you explain ocaml?  It's french.  It's also
                 ugly and functional (pun intended).  -- ilyas
                 \_ and there are American products that are beutiful
                    and useless.  so what?   it's a trend to which
                    there are exceptions, but in my experience french
                    people will put form over function to a degree
                    that is quite simply unprofessional for a scientist
                    or engineer.
                    \_ Your experience?  How many french products do you
                       actually use?  -- ilyas

        Most people think Free Market is not fine the way it is
        and needs some adjustment/tuning.
        \_ Why don't you move to France, you Cheese Eating Surrender Monkey?
        \_ Tuning in their favor no doubt.
