The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Let me put you in WeirdRaptor, I've sent pms to Kenji and Akiko. If they both want to play, I'll let them both in(which would bring us up to 7) and then I'd look for one more person to fill out the 8th spot.

Send a PM to InlÈ-rah - I've seen her on her own board a lot recently...I think she'd join in. ;)  Also, try Brian (Intrepid) - he might join in if you bring it to his notice.

We've got 6, only need two more. BTW, Intrepid, you'll be playing Littlefoot in the first round.

I still don't know how this game works and which system is there about the questions and answers, difficulty, points and whatever. Well, I guess I shall learn during the game itself.

What I''m wondering is because not everyone can get on as often as everyone else, Nick should set up a set time amount (say 48 hours) for one person to reply to the question to give them a chance to.
