I'm extending the Spring Thing voting deadline. It was April 28
(tomorrow); now it's one week later, May 5. Two reasons for this:
there have been fewer votes than usual this year, and I've also failed
in my duty to remind people about the upcoming deadline. So hopefully
this will give more people a chance to vote.

In short, please play the games and vote! You've got another week to
do it!

For more details, or if you don't know what the heck I'm talking
about, visit:

I'm in that group, and here's an irony you may enjoy: I was playing a
bit of "Pascal's Wager" just yesterday, because I'd read something
interesting about it at the IFDB ... and in the process of finding it,
downloading it, and playing it, I literally never noticed that it was
for a currently-ongoing competition of some kind :)

Okay, when I say it's an irony you may enjoy, I also recognize that it
may be an irony that makes you bang your head on your desk. But It's
_meant_ as enjoyable ...

Just to leave no stone unturned, this is the last reminder. The
deadline is about 48 hours away now, Monday night at 11:59 pm EST.

Here's another amusing fact... I didn't even notice your reply until
just now. So you needn't worry about any criticism from me on that
score! Heh.
