Busy with Work and Play
I had to do some work and run some errands on saturday. Then in the afternoon, all of us in the apartment played Hearts of Iron, a World War II real-time strategy game. It was part of our (my friend and I) effort to get the other two apartment-mates to start playing it as the more the number of human players, the more fun the game is.
Sunday is a big work-day as I have to grade the first submissions of the class project. It usually takes all day.

Jalal: Agreed about most strategic games. however, some, for example Europa Universalis II, take such a long time to play that it is not feasible to play with others.

PGP Signing: PGP-signed comments are encouraged. However, clearsigning Urdu text with GPGshell produces garbage.
MathML: Select the Textile with itex to MathML text filter. What you'll use is itex, which is a superset of WebTeX and differs somewhat from standard LaTeX.
Text Filters: For regular comments, whether in English or Urdu, keep the text filter setting to its default of Textile 2. Change it to Textile with itex to MathML when writing MathML.
It is not only with Hearts of Iron. Every strategy game gets better with the number of people playing it. Specially true of Risk which gets HORRIBLY boring with only 2 players.
