This could have been the best game ever created. I absolutely hate it but I still play it. They should have taken the best of both worlds. Given inexperienced players the matchmaking system, and give veteran players dedicated servers. Infinity Ward sucks my ________! This game could have been the most popular of all time!

Actually the answer is Yes. We can. Just not in it's current form. Today travel is considered a right. It isn't. Instead of deciding who to keep off of an airplane. Decide who to let ON an airplane. Problem solved. I for one would sacrifice some privacy to know the person sitting next to me has done the same. Since I know this will never happen, although it should, I'll probably never fly again. I used to travel by air 5-6 times a year. It's sad that so few can endanger and inconvenience so many. sig = null;

This is the silliest thing I have ever heard. People are adding code snippets with vote++, etc. That's absurd. It's a vote collection system, not a calculator. Wouldn't the votes be saved in a transactional, network capable, data collection system? Maybe a Database. Then on the back end the Election officials can run reports, etc. Then tie those reports to reports run at polling centers. There would be no overcounts, lost votes, etc. And since it's transactional you can verify things down to the vote level. I've never actually worked on a system like this, but it sounds like maybe I should. Damn.
