I invoke Godwin's Law! I'm not sure what argument was going on or who loses it, though >_>

damn forum-nazis always gotta be invoking Godwin :tsktsk:

Godwin's Law was a viral meme designed specifically to prevent comparisons to Nazis on message boards in an attempt to make discussions more interesting. It simply states that the longer a thread goes on the higher the probability of a comparison to Nazis being made. It doesn't say one wins or loses. (Well at least according to Godwin, his meme seems to have mutated into a more effective form over time.)
So the use of Godwin's Law in a thread about Viral internet marketing is interesting I think :)
ps (Hitler was one of the reasons the Allies won the war due to his inept strategy.)

He was semi-decent at strategy (early on, anyway), but his tactics and micro-management sucked.

erm, Hitler failed because he was let down by the German race; they just weren't strong enough. He said so himself.

No, Hitler failed because he was an IDIOT and attacked Russia while he was in the middle of the war. If his forces hadn't been split he could have held out for a much, much longer amount of time.

I just played Axis and Allies for the first time, and as the Axis, I can assure you that there was nothing that could have been done.
