    I'd take a good hard look at that return ticket. Can you trust Aenea, I mean really trust her?

    So your very first act as Overlord is to bungle a predicative attribution?

    Evil indeed!

    Once we transfer the ownership protocols to the Teutonic overlord, I think I'm on my own.

    Keeping it unique to you involved banning Packard.

    Face, you ignorant slut, learn to count! Hell, we even made color coded signs!

    Oh, I get it, you don't think @Tex, @evenflow, and @gul were ever important. :nyer:

    Clearly there is still a power struggle in play. But note the way the devious @Bickendan and @Krieg waited for @evenflow to be out of the country and @Tex to be distracted by college football. Obviously @John is involved, too, but I can't determine @Ancalagon's role just yet.

    WF is down 50% after rumors of a failed boardroom coup. Federal intervention imminent. National guard placed on alert.
