So yeah, I ran home quick while working, and printed out my results and the Events entry without even reading them, so I could read them when I got the chance!
:LOLS:

Very interesting stuff. Mainly very terrifying stuff. But one thing of extreme interest and pleasure for me. :D

And Pam, you can just suffer the torture of early morning txts. :lol: Sheesh, all you people who don't mute txting on your phone when you go to bed get no sympathy from me! :lol: Anyway, you need to start switching back to EST.

Friday night... :(

Also, may I inquire as to why the two Courts are still tied as far as waxing and waning goes? I double checked the rules to see if some other consideration besides the total DRP of Court members came in to play regarding waxing and waning but see nothing else. I seem to recall it has always been stated other things may influence waxing and waning besides total DRP, but in the case of a stalemate it does tend to be frustrating not knowing what else may influence.

My thanks for any answer.

Dude. I'm on call. You're texting my work pager. I cannot, on pain of unemployement, silence my phone when I go to bed.

And it's a sad sad state of affairs when people assume that technology will handle all the common courtesy in the world, so they don't have to.

Why Friday night, Cho?
And won't it be Daylight time
Instead of Standard?

Might hold your player hostage
Will she be rescued?

Okay, look. SHE and George were driving by MY place. She's stalking me, not me holding her hostage.

Objection!

DPJ did a non-haiku rhyme in this thread a little while back. I commented on it, even.

And didn't Odin make him the honorary Aesir god of Poetry?

Even though Eiran's year starts with the Winter months?
I thought the Courts DR were figured at the end of each year and became available the beginning of the next. Turn 17: the beginning of the fifth year of the Fourth Age.
I am so confused...

You want me to rhyme?
To do so would be no crime
Although far from prime

But I will not play
These games I will not assay
There is just no way

Odin honored me
To an excessive degree
I'm no deity
Yes, I am an alt
Whose? An open secret to
Attentive Watchers

He's no AllFather,
But if Odin says it's so,
You must be divine.

Perhaps in Aesir
I might take on that mantle
With all due respect

Not so Pantheon;
There is no way of Knowing
What Xar thinks of me

I said that just now.
That over there you're a god;
Over here you lurk.

Still, even Zephyr
Thinks P3 is over soon.
Sign up for P4.

Don't lose sight that Syl
Firmly put me in my place
Re Acropolis

I was quite chastened
Not enough to stop posting
Just to take some care

Even chastening,
The Autarch praised the haiku
If not the message.

A god in the game
Would have license to speak all
If in character.

My chastening was that non-players shouldn't criticize. If you played, that would be entirely different. What The Numen said.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
-George Steiner
