   It is very unfortunate that ubuntu 12.04 is still only shipping texlive 2009. I think 12.10 will include texlive 2011 or 2012 (hopefully).

    I was in Beijing a few days ago and in most of the restaurants/cafes I only had to ask the waiter for the wifi password. No id checks required. Some of the "western" bars even have a vpn running so you can browse facebook when connecting to

    It is probably too expensive (development wise) to scale for this many concurrent users as it will only happen once (or twice in case of expansions) during the whole lifetime of the game.

    My implementation is very similar to SSA_RRR on the pizza&chilli website. The index implementations on the website are not easy to understand (research code + 8 years old) so I'm trying to re-implement a few of them (especially CSA). I
