I’m not having much luck catching up  
Little to no internet for 5 days has left me with only one eyeball in the game.  
I still like my case on \*\* USCDiver \*\* which it seems still did not warrant a response on their part.

It appears \*\* pedescribe \*\* has ditched the game.  
\*\* choie\*\*’s vote has me baffled  
I will get atleast one vote in here soon  
How about now.

With the triad and the debates I’ve been able to absorb I will add my voice and \*\* Vote septimus \*\*

\*Being out of the country for a week has left a mountain on my desk. I’ll be more vocal when I catch up \*

I hesitated to send the message to **Lightfoot** since he’s not around, but whatever. I sent him the following message:

“Hey LightFoot. We’re getting our asses handed to us this game. Bippity boppity boo.”

NETA: And there he is. Hopefully he’ll get the message before he leaves again.

Sitting on your desk is a note, written in a tidy scrawl. It says:

Not sure what this proves but here it is

Sorry about that. For some reason, when I see your name I think of Luke Skywalker. Light=Sky + Foot=Walker, perhaps? The brain is a marvelous thing…

It proves that I can send stupid messages to people. Tremble with fear at my vast power!

It’s about one micron better than having to hang on to the paranoia that the whole thing is concocted out of whole cloth (or Ed’s loose-floating PM).

It’s good to know that after all the bellyaching about not talking killing town, when someone does make the effort to talk, everyone stops reading their posts. Yeah, I skim his posts a lot, but then I skim a lot of people’s posts. And when you stop and read any given post, guess what, they make sense. It’s just in aggregate, they can be a bit much. Weaksauce excuse for both SF and Diver.

On the one hand, that’s a good question.

On the other hand, it’s really of no importance either way.

If the originator of the message can’t be confirmed, then we don’t know who sent the message, so we still don’t know if \*\*Shadowfacts \*\*is Town or Scum, or if he has the powers he claims.  
If the message definitely originated from **ShadowFacts** , then we know he has the ability to send a message, but we \*still \*don’t know if he’s Town or Scum, or if he has the other powers he claims.

Been busy, haven’t had time to catch up, but, I do see that lightfoot confirmed she got a message, so I believe shadowfacts. I only remember voting once, even thought astral says I’m locked in… but only one vote is counted… eiter way to be safe.  
vote red skeezix

On phone please excuse typos.

Maybe so, but if I can’t follow along from the beginning of a post to the end, much less a case that takes 3-4 full posts, then it doesn’t do me much good. I guess I’m just not smart enough to follow what Pizza is saying.
