**Rebo** hasn’t posted on the SDMB since the Opening Post. I hope everything is OK with her.

I will end the suspense by announcing that, using evidence of prior feuds, I neither won nor came in the top 10. 😛

I think Rebo’s workload had increased massively some time ago. I believe that was why the Feuds had not been run in a while.
