I'm pretty heavily active onsite. I post less in Speasy than I read it though cause people don't like me so you might not have noticed that.

who doesn't like you?? as your new best friend they'd better go through me first. I get that though; I'm more active in the mish mash & mafia games I'm involved in than speakeasy by a mile. :)

I don't know, SUPP was fully anonymized! DeathRowKitty did some fancy statistics that showed me the probability that it's "probably everyone" vs. "just a few people but so very intensely". It was really cool!

I imagine I would t do well in that either.

Most people misunderstand my play on here and think I'm a dick.

I'm good with it though, makes the people who get me even more special to me.

the mode for the price of an app in the iphone store is probably a buck. Seems risky though. Cleaning up Egypt to start with seems safer

It's explicitly banned by the paperback rules to give a positional clue :(
I am pretty sure that is actually what the clue was for though because that makes lots of sense and I see nothing else on the board that makes sense.
Did you guys have a house rule in place for positional clues?
It's not positional in the same sense that rules explain it, they say like, don't do "COLUMN 5" because it's 5 blue cards in the the fifth column of the board. This is a weird compound word created by the positioning. But it still breaks the spirit of the rule, like, if Stranger Coug randomized how the grid looked to each person and PMed it to each person would your clue still work just fine? So angleshooting at the barest minimum.
