  • *waves buhbye* -- poobah, 19:42:14 05/14/01 Mon
    Ok, I'm highly emotional right now, so this is going to be short and sweet. In less than 17 hours I will be flying back to Winnipeg. I want to thank all the wonderful people I have the honour and priviledge to meet in person as well as talk on the phone with. You are all the best! I am going to miss you all very much, but I keep thinking that the following 6 months will pass like a blur (hopefully). Take care everyone - it's been very special to me!

    Huge amounts of hugs and love to everyone
    :'-)

  • Some help please -- SubzeroAJ, 07:21:30 04/28/01 Sat
    I have just got back from a BIG break from the stone and I find the board on a new URL. I see that you guys haven't given any nudges lately, but I was hoping one of you could help me on subtext 2 #9. I can't make heads or tails of that thing. Thanks.

  • Commons down -- poobah going back into hiding, 12:34:39 04/25/01 Wed
    This was posted in the yahoo group lodgeofthestone (you must have completed all the puzzles in order to join). I nicked it so that those that aren't finished can see there is no reason to panic - patience..
    This isn't the first time the commons has been down, it is the first for the server though - pretty good I'd say, but what do I know.. I'm still out of it
