Let’s try Initial Reaction for 200. AW was an admin? Huh. ---

Is anyone playing this other than me and Captain Carrot? If that is the case should we maybe postpone the rest of this round? I won’t have a chance in hell with more players (not that I have much of one now) but it presents a bit more of a challenge. ---

I won’t have a chance in hell with more players (not that I have much of one now) but it presents a bit more of a challenge. I think this is about how many you’ll find care to play. : p Yesterday it was only about 3 or 4 at any given time too. _shrug_ but you never know when someone else might jump in. I think drawf said he/she got off at 9 est..so that should be anytime now. [QUOTE=Captain Carrot] Let’s try Initial Reaction for 200. AW was an admin? Huh. [/QUOTE] Answer: C.M. ---

I agree. I like getting lots of points, but the only reason I’m getting them is because I constantly refresh this tab; if nobody else is here, the point is kind of lost. So for anyone who’s following along, please post! I’d like to keep playing if there are lurkers who haven’t been able to answer anything yet. ---

The last two of these, while not crowded, had more people than have played so far in this one. I guess either people just think they won’t know most of these, or just have no interest in playing. Yeah..if anyone out there is reading, feel free to play. Heh. ---
