And now, back to our chatroom, which is already in progress... ||||||||| It's 11:30 PM, and that means it's time to play BEAT THE REAPER! And here's how our contestants did: ||||||||| llanwydd - dead from intense demonic possession ||||||||| DJTweeny - dead from The Plague ||||||||| Rufus_T_Firetween - dead from jaundice ||||||||| Better luck next time! And now, back to our chatroom, which is already in progress... ||||||||| Tweeny rushes off, saying "3:00 PM? Mark Time is almost on! Where's a radio?" ||||||||| Catherwood enters, and announces to all and sundry "It's 4:31 AM, time to change the log file and clean out unused rooms; please exit the chat room for a minute or two. Thank you for your patience."
