I think [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=43835) might explain andros’ recent absence.

Besides, even if the convention was totally fucking boring, there are [better](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=45633) things to do in SLC. 😉

No Bones:

My God!! You’re on to something here.

None of those posters has ever had a simulpost with any other or with andros (No, I haven’t checked, but it seems logical.)

There are 24 posters on that list. They have 365 votes between.

24 hours in a day 365 days in a year. It’s so simple.

The ancient prophecy of lost Thulwait states:

“One year before the onset of the million year anguish that is the reign of Nasdor he will leave a sign…” …yadda yadda yadda… here we go: “You will have one year to complete the eight impossible tasks, steal a lock from the hair from the pimpled brow of Vishnor and place it within the Orb of Skinnadar, only then will three righteous men and the Virgin of Hoboken be able to brave the evil Nasdor in his lair, call him to task for his crimes and prevent his reign of torture and pain…” Yadda yadda yadda. “Look for the orb in the in the sewers of the city by the salted lake. Remember, the brine shrimp are your allies.”  
My God! Nasdor is an acronym for Andros!!!

He’s been with us all this time, fooling us into unwatchfullnes!

Hmmm. City by the salted lake? Where could that be?

Wait.

**OH NO!!!**

It may already be too late! I’m going for the Orb. Bones, you round up the others and find the Virgin and get started on the 8 tasks.

24 365! Why oh why didn’t we see it before? ::gnashes teeth::

You haven’t succeeded yet Nasdor, or should I say Andros?

You’re a genius bones! I just pray there’s still time.

I just hope we don’t get penalized for confusing acronym for anagram!

Don’t trifle me details. There’s too much at stake!  
(Actually it’s an acronym too. Nasdor stands for "Nasty Ass Sucking Demonic Octopodal Ratbastard (and all around evil guy)

Sheesh man, Where have you been?

I have the feeling I won’t get a response, but here goes…

No Bones, exactly what _is_ your point? See, if you are publicly implying that andros has sockpuppets, that’s a big no-no. We don’t allow that. Anyone who’s been around enough to have a bug up his ass about andros, for whatever reason, should know that.

If you don’t come forth and explain yourself soon, Mr. Bones, I’ll be shutting this thread down. We have too many “what the fuck are you talking about?” threads floating about as it is.

I’m sure you’ll find several hundred posters with less than a dozen posts each. In fact, there are probably many names that only have a single post. Showing a big bunch of names with a relatively small total post count means nothing.

Why did I expect dialogue from someone talking out of their ass?
