Yay, [Syl] is delaying Acro turns until the end of the month. So, I still have time to get Inferno processed.

And, as I've mentioned a few other places around GT, yesterday was my last day of class ever, for the rest of my life ever. (Sadly, this is not the first time I've had a "last day of school for the rest of my life", so I suppose it's possible that I'll forget what a hassle higher education is, and I'll come back for a further degree in my old age.)

So, once I'm done getting caught up in all my player roles, I'll also have some time today and tomorrow to get to processing this turn. I do still have to go to an event to present my final project... it's more like a science fair, really... my team gets a table with our findings on a poster, people wander around and we talk about it. Totally free-form, and unlikely to get into extreme detail. But, time consuming. At least time this Thursday. But, the end is in sight, and I'm actually looking forward to getting to be able to go post stuff on GT again.

I am nerd, hear me roar!

So, I'm aiming for being done with results tonight. Might roll over til tomorrow, depending on how long it takes me to mess with the map. But, to tide you over, and perhaps to keep my own excitement in high gear, I give you...

Cryptic Hints:

1. Fist's results were NOT the longest, this turn.
2. Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
3. Please welcome Wonko the Sane to the game.

Okay, map posted, Wonko posted, general turn results posted. I need to finish off one player's numbers. The one with longer results than Fist. That'll be done tomorrow, and then all the results emails will go out. Until then, sit tight y'all. It's bed time for this one.

(Also, I told Fist before he went to bed that it would all be done tonight. I'm looking forward to hearing the silent scream of anguish carry across four time zones to reach me somewhere in the next four hours, when he wakes up and the email isn't there. Then I'll drift back to sleep with a smile on my face.)

Hmm. I don't have results, so I guess that means...
"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.”

As promised, it's now tomorrow, and I have sent out all the results. I hope you all choke on them.

Well, now, that's unkind!


Thanks for the results. :D Superb, as always.

The unkind part was that I sent everybody else's results out about an hour before I sent yours.

Okay, so... based on my continued being busy, in spite of having finished grad school, I'm going to extend the deadline to the 1st (coincidentally the same as the Acropolis deadline).

This also allows me to get some background stuff tidied up over here before people have to act.

Remember: Turn 11 is due by the end of the day tomorrow. So far, only three players have submitted. Once again, Fist wasn't first. It's like he doesn't even really care about playing.
