Glad to see this game migrating over to JTnet. Thanks Mike

Ego constrains me to mention that I invented this game. Jim R, who used to be a JC regular and an Organissimo regular (he's still a regular at O and a great guy) brought it over to Organissimo. I'm forever grateful that he mentioned that I invented it on the first post.

On Organissimo it has been an absolute phenomenon. There have been over 42,000 posts and over 900,000 views and it has gone strong continuously for a decade. If you add in the several thousand posts on JC over the years, there have been over FIFTY THOUSAND POSTS.

I'm kvelling.

Please tell me, guide me, oh great guru Steve T.]

Whoops, I didn't continue from the previous post. so sorri
Actually Jean is French for John?

You did fine, except for referring to me as Steve T. I just don't see it as an acceptable shortening/abbreviation of steve(thelil). First of all it's one word. Secondly, if you want to parse it it's steve the lil, so if anything, it would be steve L (in fact, in what passes for a real life, I am "Steve L." Thirdly, yes, I'm fully aware of how douchey I'm sounding.
