I've been pretty ill lately due to the disease. I'll update here soon.

QTC will be tonight at 7pm instead of 3pm (Eastern). Been pretty ill lately—semester ended just in time, apparently.

I decided to give Fillyfoolish a Trick Point for this essentially correct response a long time ago, and forgot to do it apparently. It's been added to the most recent leaderboard (QTC 34).

Congratulations to Light Striker for winning the last contest!

Quote: Spike's eye​s wide​ned to the size of din​ner pl​ate​s, and his ton​gue slip​ped out of his mouth where it be​gan to col​lect on the wood​en floor, slow​ly coil​ing up into a p​i​le.

Jewel has COVID. He's doing okay, but I'm a bit frazzled so things are still behind. I need to complete the rest of the work for my job this weekend. I'm probably not going to be able to teach again because the disability is too overwhelming, so this may be unemployment time, which is fine for us but makes me want to retreat into not-thinking-about-anything which I've been doing way too much of since things got bad.

Invites coming tonight; sorry for the delay. The semester is finally over so I'm almost out of the woods now.

Final grades are due Monday midnight, and I'm hosed for time until then.

This means the next QTC will be Tuesday at 3pm. Also I will send out the pmail invites to Discord at that time.

I'm swamped with handling final exams and academic misconduct cases, so I won't be able to send invites to the Discord until later, possibly as late as Monday but probably sooner than that.

Just so you know I'm still alive, technically.

It's finally here! Sorry this took forever.

I'm making a few changes to the Quotable Trick Contests to reward the participants and encourage more interaction!

1. Unspent points are no longer a tiebreaker for anything, so you don't have to worry about spending them.
