I think SiXSwordS means the freeforall that was last Saturday thru Monday, when because of the server changeover, we were warned that the posts would not be saved. The Pit’s Mod Controls were loosened a bit.

Any idea when we will be able to subscribe, my subscription ran out over the lost weekend and I’d like to get PMs back as I am engaged in a game of mafia right now.  
Unless of course PMs will be turned on for guests or whatever the future title will be.
