I may be botting the first bit of the game tonight (if it shows up). I have a good bit of work that MUST go out tonight, and it may press 10pm before I’m done. ---

Supposedly Allen is on the case now to get the game set up. I started bugging him at about 7:45EST and it hasn’t appeared yet. ---

It’s up now, good work! And can anybody tell him to put it up? I don’t have a comprehensive list or anything, I can name most of the regulars, but between SDMB names, AIM names, and PT names, I’d prolly screw it up… ---

Oslo was a stone cold killa last night. I think on two different occasions he took out two people. That practically happened on back-to-back hands. He took me out, too. ---
