Memorial

Today is the traditional Mexican (not exclusive, but they're the main celebrants) holiday honoring and remembering those who have died.

Given the tragic events of Halloween, I am hearby dedicating this thread to those who have lost their lives as a result of this deadly game we play, and the events that surround it. So let us not forget them, and hope that they have gone to a better place. However, let us not be discourage or allow these death to allow us to think that they are unavoidable, or that we are making things worse. If we allow ourselves to fall into that abyss, more deaths than we can imagine will swamp us and our world. We shall not stop, and these lost souls will stand as witness to our fight.

You should use the 'code' tag. It doesn't strip the spaces.

Should we also memorialize Adam's dates, and all the dead from Holmes' and Poirot's cases?

It was a death. It did not have nearly as great an impact as the others, and I am not saying that it is an atrocity, as others are. But it was still a death.

Wait, how do you know that Adam's dates number four? I don't remember getting that information.

Errr....Why the hell did I put 4 in there?

That is a very good question.

I totally was not about to just go running over to Adam's blog and look frantically for a response where he gave that info...

I salute all of this.

May these dead people and cats rest in piece (Even if this is all fictional)

I added Tripky to the list. But in tiny print, because we hate him.

...Because Jack never repeatedly and Orwellian-ly changed one person's one specific post to say the opposite of what it originally said?
:lol:
But this one was useful. And this is me, admitting defeat against your mod-ly powers. I would far rather be your ally than your nemesis. It's safer, for one thing.
