Today is Sunday, the 14th day of December, 
and the Machine That Goes *ping* Has Gone *ping* today. 
Since I have been Scholar, the Machine has gone *ping* 8 times. 

Slakko
Still Scholar of *ping*

Oh, a note.  I'm going on vacation this coming Friday or Saturday.  So if
no-one guesses the Truth successfully by then, no one will get the boon.
It's unfortunate, but that's the way it has to be.

Subject: Acka: New Viruses

Okay.  The following players indicated their desire to play in this
new game of Viruses:

ThinMan (represented by T)
Balsamic Dragon (B)
The Gingham Wearer (G)
Red Barn (!)

I believe that if anyone else wants to join, then e just needs to
announce this publicly, and then can send me eir moves.  (This is
being sent to acka-games-priv, so replying to it will not yield a
public message...)

Here is the starting board(numbered to give us some space...):

I was certain I emailed and asked to be included, but regardless,
add me now, as '/' I guess.

I probably shouldn't do this, but so what. I wish to join in as well -
give me 'X', since 'B' is taken.

With my previous record, it's quite possible you did email me.  If I
don't keep these messages in my incoming mailbox, sometimes I forget
about them entirely.  :-/
