I’m not sure how to explain this using the normal report system, so I thought I’d try here.

There are two threads in MPSIMS:

[It’s March 14th - Happy Pi Day Everyone !!!](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=645156)

and

[I had my mare inseminated yesterday](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=615227)

There is also a thread redirect that says

[Moved: It’s March 14th - Happy Pi Day Everyone !!!](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=615227)

However, as you can see, instead of redirecting to the Pi thread, it takes you to the mare thread. Just thought I’d point it out, since it caused me a little confusion.

There was a mistaken thread merge this morning. I should be able to eliminate that extra redirect.

Edit: It’s gone now, although the third link in the OP will still take you to **StGermain** ’s mare thread.

Thanks, **Marley**. I suppose you could close this now.
