Ackazens,

There is a new non-voting internomic member.  They are Rishonomic, and
Niccolo Flychuck <[email-masked]> is their liason (at least for the
moment).  More information on Rishonomic can be found at

Subject: Acka: Robert Sevin 

It just occured to me that in High School I knew a kid named Bob Six, and
his sister Tommy Six.  What that has to do with Robert Sevin, I don't know,
but I had a sudden urege to tell everyone about it.

Now I have, and I'm sure you all going "Hmm, what was he drinking."

Subject: Acka: Awards

P1940 was Malenkai's 220th accepted proposal.
P1942 was Guy Fawkes's 60th accepted proposal.

I am awarding a Gold Stripe to each of them, as 3 Silver Stripes owned
by each of them are destroyed.

#award Guy Fawkes: +1 gold stripe :BCrank=60
#award Malenkai: +1 gold stripe :BCrank=220
#award Guy Fawkes: -3 silver stripe :BCrank=60
#award Malenkai: -3 silver stripe :BCrank=220

As Medical Examiner, I must commit myself to ending this horrible plague 
in our land!  It is too late for quarantine alone to work, for already 
the esteemed mr cwm has fallen prey to this dreaded ailment, too.

This requires the most serious of possible responses.  snowgod's disease 
must be cauterized from this land!  Narf must be roasted alive to destroy 
the dreaded ailment by fire!

(Alternatively, though it would be far less melodramatic, the medical 
references note that since snowgod's disease tends to be attracted to 
mutations, Narf could buy a pointy ear then have it removed, and stand a 
good chance of being cured.  Still, for pure entertainment value, I 
would greatly prefer Narf allow himself to be burned.)

Friends

RL just kicked into high gear with the last weeks before finals, not helped
by the fact that I have received rather a lot of bad news from friends
abroad. I have a number of public and private threads to resolve. I ask for
your patience. I will try and sort out everything before next weekend.

Thank you.

In my experience, one does not own the Chartreuse Goose, but the other
