There will be a campaign redux soon, and things are bound to liven up in here.

If not enough people subscribe, I think our little group will be eliminated. They are trying to weed out unused groups. It was posted on the "Announcements" page. We should post a note on FB and probably the old DU as well.

And I just rec'd your OP! That's new "in here"!

add one but I didn't see the option. Do you know? I don't want to go out with the hoi polloi to ask.

I'm in breathless anticipation of the campaign season.

I'm kind of looking forward to it because last time after we had a candidate, the in-fighting stopped (for the most part ). This time, people will still be whining about Obama and how they just can't vote for him -- or WORSE, that Hillary should have taken Joe's place. Perish the thought!

Good to see you all.

I've got a ca. 1968 version of the WFF 'N PROOF game in my bookcase at Dharma Gardens.

Now you're WiffenPoof? I'm sure there is a story behind that one.

Haven't tried it. Notice replies in full view are now indented. Full view also seems to be the default. Many new aspects to learn.

LOTS of new stuff to learn! What an enormous undertaking by Skinner and the gang -- and so far, pretty damn good!

Hi everyone!!!

No more role playing games for me, but I still play some Scrabble.

And do you play scrabble against someone?

I love the "My Posts" feature!

Oh, I just burned out. It was becoming more like an obligation than fun.

I play Scrabble with several relatives and I usually get beat. For stress relief I play Bejeweled Blitz, which requires no commitment at all.

choose "novice" as my opponent.

Nothing like being in control.

My sister is a Scrabble Shark, but it just makes it sweeter the few times I do beat her.

Haven't been here forever....

But for Joe - anything!

though I'm still a bit lost.

Someone linked to DU2 (where you can still post, by the way) and just going there felt like "ahhhhh" coming home. We'll adapt and adjust, I'm sure. Skinner, et al, didn't go through all this work just for the hell of it, I'm sure the wisdom of the changes will become more apparent to us as we become more familiar.

that seemed to be missing, but now I'm starting to see all the cool stuff. Wish the Home page was more interesting, but I think I'm going to like it.

at the extreme opposition I've read. A lot of people say they're leaving forever. Its always a challenge to navigate a new website. There were features at DU2 that I didn't find for a long time.
