This week, Gwydion brings us part two of "The Puppet Master." He did a very good job telling this story. Right now, I'm too tired to be able to tell you much else. You can get to it [url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/ubb/newsdisplay.cgi?action=topics&number=52&forum=*Cythera+Chronicles&DaysPrune=25&article=000068&startpoint="]here[/url].

We're out of chronicles again! Submit more, people!

This one had an interesting element of suspense at the end. I'm somewhat curious why Chrax would lie, though. If course, I've had to wonder for about three weeks, having seen it the day or so after it was submitted Posted Image

BTW, I can still see the pending crons board, even though I told you about the hole weeks ago. I'll thus assume that it is a privledge allowed for those who find it, and enjoy it's benifits.

Um, who here (Besides cache, me, and the mods) has seen the pending crons board? Was the Talm's-sig thing so obvious, or is cache very perceptive?

Probably because he's busy working on developing software and running a company, and technically we could slap you for revealing that highly classified information. Posted Image

I didn't reveal anything, an explanation was requested by a mod (You or Slayer, I don't remember.), so I gave one. If I wanted to blow the top of this, I'd have started a new topic 'New Webbboards and new Civilazations' in which I'd have posted the exact URL. But I didn't, because that would have been very dumb of me and not very respectful of the system.

Further, I took steps to make it more difficult for others to go there by changing Talm's sig so it didn't show 'classified information'.

That said, you ought to be happy that is was me and not Grapper who discovered this...
And you know why Posted Image
Oh, and why didn't you just erase my post if it was a big deal?

Probably for the same reason I use ' Posted Image' smileys. (I don't mean over half of the threats I say) That, and I'm too lazy to delete your posts. Posted Image

You aren't the first to discover the Pending News/Chronicle section, OF created a topic last year that resulted in spamming those forums. That said, I'm sure if andrew felt the need for higher security he could do so. (then again, there's been trouble with moving topics around on private forums)

As I recall, that's how OF lost his moderatorship.

Or at least that's what i hear, I wasn't technically on the boards yet.

I don't think that's why, it happened after that.

I think he lost his modship because too many people complained.
