I was writing an email note to our group secretary telling her I had a dentist appointment earlier:

I will not be in [del]Today[/del] today because I have a dentist appointment…

Could I request that a “library-embarrassment” warning be attached to jokes like this? 😉

I mean, it’s pretty ridiculous whne you are in a public library or other public-use library and you hear some damn fool doofus laughing hysterically at something he read off the monitor.

And when the damn fool idoofus is you, well… :o

Anyway, I agree that you have to be pretty stupid to slip up and use another name when you’re playing multiple account games.

Actually, there are 10 (12?) of us, except for the conspiracy theorists. If you can figure out who everyone actually is, post it in this thread & you win a prize.

What? Waht? But, Unca Cece, I am fighting ign’ance! Ignorance & delusion are two different things!

This reminds me of a hilarious thing that happened on another forum. We were playing a “Bastard Mod” mafia game, and the mod had registered another account to play in the game to add to the confusion, but before the game started, he forgot which account he was using and made a reference to being the mod while using the new account. 😃
