Yeah. I still owe Zephyr one from a long time ago. Can't seem to get any admins to actually create it, though.

I created Watchy ones back in April. The general 2009 Watchy looks like:

But it is not "official." I have asked for but have not been given permission to suggest people use it in their signatures until the official one is created and uploaded to the Watchy store... :(

And yeah, Goat.
I think when you suggested a user tag as a contest prize I mentioned getting them uploaded to the stores was like pulling teeth, even if one went through the effort of creating them. However, ~jay really does have several good excuses for being unable to get to it, and Vain doesn't have the power to do so anymore, I think. I am unsure regarding danlo or av uploading user tags.

Did you count the ones in the Tales of the Acropolis, where Nyx does most of her posting?

Starting to count the hours in anticipation... :)

Her weeks in rehab seem to have only made her forget the safety rules of Gravin Threndor.

1. Do not offend Xar
2. Do not offend Syl
3. Do not ignore texts from Fist
4. Do not give Goatkiller666 something to babble on about

Note that each masters
One of the games that she plays
She takes many risks...

That's an excellent question. Up to no good, I'm sure.

No good -- in excess!
Absent the entire day
An intervention?

No, probably not
Her rehab was out West, right?
She has since gone home

When she reappears
She has some 'splaining to do
We feel abandoned!

*talk about aggravating the Autarch*
At least my post yesterday was game related...

And I did not pester him, DPJ!
Merely expressed barely concealed anticipation. :|

It's Rules and COMMENTS
That gives us some lattitude
To stray off-topic

Anyway, you're back
The rejoicing can begin
(Or is that teasing?)

...
comments about the game, I assume...
...not my own status of being on the Watch or not.

Anyway, now let's stop further aggravating the Autarch!

I believe I hijacked a thread just for such a reason.

Results are mostly done (everything's done but the writing and the stuff that usually pops out while I'm sewing the separate narratives together). I'll try to have it done tomorrow, but with two finals on Tuesday, I can't promise it.

Can we have a few days extension on deadline please, Syl?

I'm gonna be living in a field for a week from tomorrow.

I'll be going out of town on the 26th (with limited access to the Interwebs) until the 2nd. I also would be just fine with pushing the deadline out until the 5th of July or so. That allows Syl more breathing room anyway. It's win-win.

Have a great time!

Sure. Deadline will be Monday night, the 5th.
