Did you catch that we're just doing them by calendar day, now?
Um, are you using Inflationary Language?

No, I knew that. But by the third or fourth day, I actually have to stop and think of when it started, esp. w/ the 2 day start, then when I last posted, etc. With big, bold text at each new day, I can just see if I've posted something since then. Or in between the last two days to see if I'm even still qualified. I'm just rather visual.

I feel like I should point out this isn't true. (Just a little knee-jerk reaction to the theology presented in some LDS musicals.)

Nope. I've been doing that a lot. I usually don't even look at the lyrics, just at the title and artist.

Today is the first, but it is Day 2. As to "Inflationary Language," this video explains it quite well.

Ah, I see. I meant that each day ends at midnight, not that the rounds match up with the date.

Oh my goodness. I have been watching you lurk around here forever and despaired of ever seeing you post! I am so excited you're going to play!

Thanks! I'm pretty much a lurker by nature, both in real life and online, but I love Encore.
