Check out Dick Williams. He's got four games under progress... with people who haven't moved in the last nine+ years!

One wonders how you stumbled across this nugget of trivia and was a ouija board involved?

Finally get a day off, and this is what I do? I really should get to the store and buy some beer. Make that more beer.

Maybe it's like in the cartoon 'Futurama' when 'Fry' falls into the cryo tube..... only the dail was set at 9 years and not 1000?

I have often wondered what happens to people you have games in progress with. Did they die? Are the ill or been injured? I am always leary to click someones skull, thinking they will return after months with some strange near death tale.

With the exception of Game 6932610 he's the only one to have made a move in any of the games. Perhaps he thinks they'll count towards his win/loss ratio when he times them out. Game 6932610 seems to be a normal game with a p1200.

My guess is that he picks his opponents from a list of p1200s and doesn't check if they're active. Otherwise it makes no sense.

Most likely he is waiting for a skull to appear, since he knows they are inactive. He probably doesn't know he won't get any points for it.

There's a common theme to most of the 'nyms' he's playing, a theme reflected in his own forename too. I reckon he's about 15, just coming to terms with stuff 🙄

That being the case, now learn compassion, too.

There's only one long term game. What has happened is that he picked up a long-abandoned open invite without looking at the game creation date.
