What I use the parantheses for is to say one thing (usually what I believe to be true), but could very well mean another. In other words, when someone calls someone else "brave", very often you can also call that person stupid. Bravery and stupidity tend to go together. Thus, when I was calling something someone might say a mistake, they "could" be doing it on purpose, but probably not.

How about the "read:" part? It sounds like an editor or proofreader's note.

Also, why not be more up front instead of the constant usage parentheses? If overused they can be distracting and hinder the town.

More up front? The entire point of my use of parantheses is to say things meaningful to the sentence that don't necessarily belong in the sentence itself. Kind of like an aside, if you remember what that is (actors say something meaninful to the audience that doesn't really belong in actual dialogue on stage). Anyways, enough of that.

At this point, I'm waiting for others to casts some votes or ask questions about the votes that have already been cast. Seems like a lot of people are holding their breaths for something.

paranthesis are often used in the same way that commas should be, as a separation indicating a statement of fact that is relevant to the sentence but a separate idea, but aren't always.

As I screw up and don't capitalize the sentence...

thought about editing it, then realized that that was a bad bad idea.

Not really holding my breath, it's called summer classes and a typically asinine start of Day One (this is only half-sarcasm, I would prefer not to be labeled counterproductive).

In the interests of renewing productivity, would it be too early to make little behavioral analyses on everyone? I find that even if scum use it to slander innocents, it generally provides good information from intelligent townspeople.

In regards to parentheses and read: usage, I point out the first sentence in today's Penny Arcade (http://www.penny-arcade.com) site. Considering Tycho is considered, by many, to be a lesser god of grammar, Sonicpulsar has won this match. I'll try to post something more productive tomorrow, but being out of town for this seminar is making it hard.

Sorry, I'm preparing for finals. But I did catch something:

I'm less likely to check MS on weekends than on weekdays. If I've disappeared on a weekend, it's normal.

Limited access for a week or so. I can read and post, but don't expect a lot.

Posting in this game died for a while. I'm still most suspicious of remussaidow, mainly because no one else has posted much.

Yeah, this was just mainly to say that I'm still here.
Is it any wonder things seem so awry? We swim in a sea of confusion and don't have to think to survive, so nobody listens!

That wasn't a real roleguess on my part. Remus had gotten on me about putting Trust at L-3 and I was thinking out lout about why he was so worried. Trying to answer my own question of if he did get bandwagoned somehow, could that theoretically put us at lylo. I was speaking purely in hypotheticals.
