Oh... and, having noticed this over the course of my Grimoire-related hunt yesterday--there has been some serious confusion with Roman numerals the last few games, not helped by discrepancies with the admin threads.

So... if I understand it aright, this game--yours, Boro--is supposed to 65--not the 70 you've got in the title here.

Mnemo's game was supposed to be LXIII (63), but somehow turned into XVIII (18). Lari seems to have picked up on the (18), so her one thread is XIX (19), saw it should be after 50, but merely added the L (50) and so got LXIX (69). It should have been LXIV (64).

So, Boro, dearest darling please,

could I beseech you to use the proper number-- LXV (65)--when you start your game thread? It'll make all of us nitpicklers MUCH happier to get back on track.
