Oh. My. Gosh. The one about arguing and the one with the picture were PRICELESS.

How weird is it that I now forget that those faces originally belonged to Che Guevarra and Sean Connery?

I think Democritus got the heads on the wrong bodies. Vorpal has the blade, not Marduk.

Oh great. So then I'd get the tail. That's fair.

You know, Marduk, we ought to be on the same side. We don't say rude things to each other like
no one (with any guts) wrote:They'd probably stop playing chess and start arguing about inane bull.
Or
Democritus wrote:No matter who wins, we all lose.
Who's our real opponent here? The 100 Hour Board, right?

I wanna see this match on Yahoo chess! Or maybe you can just notate the game and I can play pretend at home.

Hey, we are going to play in person, and that's that.

I could record it! I could borrow my mother's video camera.
Also that picture is very amusing.

Hypatia and I have discussed making this a giant reader event. Sell refreshments to pay for t-shirts: "Team Vorpal" and "Team Marduk"

I'd buy one. Which one I don't know, but I'd totally sell baked goods for a shirt, haha.

Did...any one else get a farewell note from VB? Is he leaving the message board? Will I never be able to wear my Team Vorpal shirt?

I also got one, so I guess it must be true.

I should probably feel bad, or something
