Ah, playing with my words already hm? Fortunately, as Judge, it is my perogative to interpret them. So while your post did occur in those 24 hours, I had left the exact time of when the round started unstated. One second before the twenty four hours elapsed is also "within" the 24 hours, and was intended as the precise time that the round started, so long as the eligible Wizard had not posted first. Of course, this does not render your rule either INVALID or VALID. Merely too early, and in fact benefits you as you now have just over 4 hours of extra eligibility. Use them wisely. :) The Judge 17/07/02 11:26:17 AM, rsholmes_at_MailBox.Syr.Edu (Richard S.
