[color=orange]CHALLENGE LISTING[/color]
[color=green]Keyword Challenge #1 and #2[/color]
If any player posts a valid post with the secret Keyword in it, he or she will win a free item. The word is a potentially everyday word. (So, it's not 'hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia'.) Word lists do not count. The word must be found in a sentence inside a valid post. This has a good history of promoting activity, so let's see some interesting stories! (Update: remember that the post does not have to be about the game. Also, any tense of the word will work as well [*-s, *-ing, *-ed, *-like, etc. will all do.)[/color] [color=purple]This Challenge lasts until the end of the game.[/color][/color]

Where's everyone?
Let's get a last clue.
Your name: braingle01
Item: Divination Card
Quantity: 3
Target, if applicable:
Use Immediately? : yes
Last round boss fired the two people with most points but one had insurance.
This time the boss only targeted those without insurance.
Countrygirl got skipped because she said she voted out of majority.
always multitasking 24/7

I am going to go for C0untrygirl. I think she is the boss.
The faster I type in my password, the more secret agent-y I feel.

Been way more than three hours since my last post. Countrygirl, braingle01, and tigerlily, are you guys still here? I am thinking that countrygirl is it, because she is the only one among the four of us that does not have employment insurance. Why would she need it if she is the boss?

Y'all can vote for me if you want but I'm not the boss. The reason I didn't buy insurance was because I didn't think I had enough points to make it worth it.

It bothers me when I see tax money wasted on signs telling deer where to cross the road.

Well, if i am not fired this round, then i am going for countrygirl again. I wish we could know who braingle01 and tigerlily voted for.
