    ((OOC: well, if anyone has a decent tower they could part with for shipping, let me know... rearranged my floor, which moved my better laptop into my makeshift living room (it has HDMI, so easier to hook up). The current laptop in my bedroom is barely able to YouTube, let alone do much else...

    Issue with using site in Android

    Hmm... just noticed that it seems to work right if there is punctuation before I hit the onscreen keyboard's enter key.

    Issue with using site in Android

    Hmm... bug found: when in here in Android, if you use the /me command, the return on the onscreen keyboard doesn't send, it just starts a new line... otherwise just regular typing it works fine. Might have to experiment more to see if any any other commands cause the same behavior.

    Did you know....the horns on the viking's helmets are a myth? The popular image of the "horned Viking" can be traced back to the 1870s. Costume designer Carl Emil Doepler created horned helmets for Richard Wagner’s opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen to enhance the characters' theatrical presence. (I BELIEVE in the Where in Time game, they tell us this too....)
