Whoa, I gotta pay more attention here. Methinks I should do vanity searches a bit more often. First I read how I’m still in the running, when I didn’t even know it. Then I see the post with the quotes from my unfortunate but well-meant bit of e-terrorism. I didn’t even _know_ I had a run-in with the mods! (If I admit that does it make me less cool?) And **then** I see that I’m in! Woot woot!!

I’ve never used a signature before…

**Nocturnal\_Tick**  
Great write-up you did for all the present members.

Looks as if Torie wants into the club. I am somewhat familiar with her (from another thread). Perhaps if she isn’t too shy, she might want to post a link to that thread. (Yes, I could post the link - but I’ll leave this choice to her).

Yes **torie** , that’s the thread to which I referred.  
I know **Nocturnal\_Tick** has the final say, but to me you have demonstrated a nice, uninhibited “Brat Pack” mentality.

Ahhhhhhh. So that was you, hmm?

😃 Yeah you’re in.  
**torie** : The latest Brat of the Pack. She might lose it, but then it’s rewards for whoever finds it. 😛

Well, Bonnie and Clyde, but without the whole shot to death thing. Well you may get on my nerves, we’ll wait and see. 😛

And for **Rufus** , it’s **brat** not prat. :mad: I’m a stickler for detail.

you know what would be great? If we developed a private code using smilies instead of standard letters or letter combinations.

for example:

a = 🙂  
e = :rolleyes:  
i = :dubious:  
o = 🆒  
u = :smack:  
y = ;j  
sh = 😛  
th = :wally  
sl = 😉  
bl = 😃  
sp = 😕  
tr = :o  
sm = :eek:  
fl = ☹  
pl = :mad:

d 🆒 ;j 🆒 :smack: w 🙂 nt t 🆒 :mad: 🙂 ;j w :dubious: :wally m :rolleyes: ?

no, actually that’s stupid…  
okay… it wouldn’t be cool, never mind… grumble grumble …
