There couldn't have been any. All the natives were good.

I'd help you if I was better versed in the specifics of American history, but the above is about all I took away from my school textbooks.

Thanks for blowing it! I almost had everyone fooled!
I didn't expect to be so busy after coming "home." Our house is in far worse condition than I had realized, so I've been mostly sleeping at my grandparents' place and going to my house to help clean up.
I'm not really sure when I'll be back for real.
The Battle of the Five Armies
I had an opportunity to see it, finally. I enjoyed it quite a bit, though not as much as the last one. The black arrow-shooting thing was a lot less goofy than people made it sound, and the early death of Smaug didn't bother me at all...those who complain about it must not have read the book. The dragon sickness also didn't bother me much, as it was an element in the book, if not nearly as prominent in the story.
I'm back now, a bit earlier than expected.

Well, goodbye to you all for now. I doubt I will find any time to post here in the next two to three weeks, as my family makes its way back across Canada (likely spending extra time sightseeing as we did last year).

Haha, thanks. I quite like it. I think I have several tracks from the soundtrack of Doom (never played it, though), most of which I like a lot. I don't think I've heard this one, though. I assume it's from the same game, anyway, based on the title and the sound of it....
Don't bother sending this game to me; I can just download it again if my laptop dies, but as I don't think it will, I'll still have everything saved.
As for the shogi game, I'll let you know if I want to continue once I'm ready. I may just want to restart at that point.
I wish I could listen to it, but my Flash player seems to be blocked and I'm not sure how to unblock it, especially since it isn't shown as blocked under chrome://plugins/....
And wouldn't you know it, I found him in less than five minutes. ;)
Regarding your signature, Praetorian:

I think we should use a minus sign when a piece demotes, to indicate that we haven't forgotten.

I guess you're going to win. I assume you'll move G-C, then G-12B, and there's nothing I can do to prevent it.
Why does this game remind me of Tic-Tac-Toe? ;)
So, should we play again, this time interacting with each other's pieces a bit more, or should we move on to the next set of rules?
I forgot to remind you earlier, but you now have a go-between, not a pawn.
Assuming your move remains the same, T-21.
I should warn you that my computer has been crashing a lot lately, and I believe it is due to a hardware problem, so if I suddenly disappear, it may be that my computer has died on me. If that happens, however, I should have access to another computer once I get back to Alberta.

Oh well. I started off poorly this game, not having played it in a while, so it might be nice to restart anyway. Let's keep playing for now, though.

"He won't have but a second''?! How did this book make it through editing?
That's good to hear! Maybe you could PM me a check to make up for the two summers of work that I missed? ;)
I gave up on it without even taking a peek at it. :P
There are too many well-known good books to read to bother reading through the mess of the EU and nuEU just to enjoy the occasional good one (not that they're mostly bad, just mostly mediocre).
Time to get the game going, even if it means a small loss for me:

I wonder if this is the photo that fooled Kenner into thinking Snaggletooth was six feet tall? Doesn't explain why they thought he was wearing blue though! ;)
Weren't they using black and white photos or something?
