I hate to say this now but we’ve gone off again.

Gene Hackman was used twice. Melodyharmonius used him in Post #33 on Page 1 and Daedelus used him again in Post #371 on Page 8.

Let’s make it a rule that whoever finds a misplay needs to also specify the list of moves that resulted from the misplay (for later searches), and specify a re-start.

I would think, given how far off we are, that we need to let that one go rather than try to work back.

For Robin Tunney? No, we’re in the middle of a reboot – see **Little Nemo** ’s post right above.

We need someone to do the tidying up on the reboot, though, and I did the last one and am feeling cranky about doing another.

No, it’s just a matter of making the list of who’s still available.
