Subject: Acka: Fictionary Start (Vynd)

Okay, it's been three days since my official Fictionary request, and there
haven't been any new clamours in the past little while, so I shall declare
the game to be commencing.

Per Rule 1250.10, I shall generate random numbers from 1 to 13(how
auspicious...)and assign them to each player.  To save time and space,
I list here the players of the game in the randomly assigned order:

1--Vynd
2--Slakko
3--Robin Hood
4--Rambo R Minuteman (or Mr. Tambourine Man, depending)
5--two-star
6--Alfvaen
7--K 2
8--Studge
9--Altra the FireCat
10--JT
11--Anathema
12--/dev/joe
13--Eris (how appropriate, somehow.  :-)

So Vynd is the first Brainiac.

Subject: Acka: Eleusis G2R1 (Fortunato)

Attila the Pun failed to post a move in time, so a card was chosen randomly
from eir hand.  In this case, it was the Two of Diamonds, which was a
correct play.  It is now Fortunato's turn.

Players and Scores:
    Alfvaen         : 0  ( 0 cards) (Deus)
    Attila the Pun  : 0  (17 cards)
    K 2             : 0  ( 0 cards) [ left the game ]
 *  Fortunato       : 0  (18 cards)
    Robin Hood      : 0  (17 cards) [ substituting for Ayla ]
    Robert Sevin    : 0  (12 cards)
    JT              : 0  (10 cards)
(* denotes whose turn it is to play -- play will be entered only after Deus
   and prophet respond to the play)

Card ranks:
The cards in each suit are ranked A-K with Ace low(values 1-13).
There are no Wild cards.
