Well, Gurthy, since the game doesn't start for another few hours yet, I think I'll hold off on the vanishing.
I don't know if this will make a difference yet, but with the Day 1 start and finish times as they are, I am not going to be able to be around nearly as much as I wanted to. I'll be at work when it starts on Friday evening and then again all day Saturday, not getting home till maybe half an hour before the deadline (which won't be enough time to read all the posts and write one of my own.) All this is to say, you might as well expect me to be voting several hours early, at around 8 AM Saturday morning (CDT) and then vanishing for the rest of the Day. I can sometimes get online at work but it's not something to count on, by any means.
So anyway.

So much for all the talk I did about Day 1 posting. I'll be around for a few hours on Friday (from around 8 PM to midnight) and that'll be mostly it except for a half hour or so Sat. morning when I get on to vote. This is the worst possible time in my work schedule for a Day 1 to occur.
