| I didn't even see the bit of comic at the top at first, which made the rest a little abrupt and unprepared. |

| Yeah, there are parallels between her and FFF, but the idea that she'd become one is still off-the-wall. Maybe after Charlie's been croaked and decrypted, or something. |

| Added new bet, resolved one. I think we have evidence for this one, but I can't remember for sure - anyone know off the top of their heads? The evidence may only apply to state 7. bpzinn bet GWvsJohn 50q that it is possible for a participants in a trimancer link to contribute more than one caster di... |

| so I was reading old chapters . And noticed that bogroll mentions he does not remember putting walnuts into a pigeon pie. Assuming Stanley does not smash pigeons that are already in the pie there seem to be two possibilities: 1. Changemancy effect of the Arcenhammer might activate with a delay. 2. ... |

Looks is just a part of being attractive, even at a superficial level. |

| I'll go through and bring the totals up to date. I think one of the problems is that things have been so off-the-wall lately that it's more obvious than usual how useless it is to speculate. Vendanna, it seems like your bets all expire at the end of book 4, which hasn't happened yet. Shashakiro, you... |

| It doesn't seem that odd to me that it didn't work. It does seem odd to me that he teleported. The SPW set up a string holding him in Erfworld. But that isn't the only string out there, not by a long shot. His strings are entangled with the friends he's made. They are now his anchor in the world, no... |

| I sent 'em a stern letter pointing out that their solution made the problem much worse and more consolidation would be better… and just giving users the tools needed to consolidate would help. Like, quarterly pledging! Whee, we just cut that fee in a third! But I didn't cancel. I figured they'd chan... |

| Neat idea, but seems unlikely to me. Want to lay odds on it, even long ones? I'd call that a 0.5% off-chance. I'd put up to 40 quatloos on it. |

| Aside from Wanda tricks… what if Isaac reads Parson's scroll? Seems reasonable to suppose that that would stick him back in his body… and perhaps without the rest of every other GM stuck in him. |

| That would be a train wreck. Having written things released serially, reader suggestions just didn't have the level of coherence of my advance plans. It's just not the same thing. |

| DeaconBlues, the text updates have graduated from optional to not-optional as of around the beginning of book 3. Sorry to hear they give you so much trouble. Oh wow! They are! I wonder if we can do any story foreshadowing by digging up other Kafka quotes... I've got you covered. … Son of a Submariner! |

1) I wonder if decrypting the thinkamancers other than Isaac would pull them out of the deiform, letting them come back down?
2) Those notes were in the gibberish-pad protected by signamancy, right? |

Once you sit down and think about how we use the term, in assigning moral and legal responsibility, the ones where we have it are more like ... |
