... that was such a joke it went over the alerter's head and and at least four jurors' heads, too. I think it took about an hour or less to get unlocked. The second was a troll I was pushing at around the same time: he alerted me and someone alerted him at the same time. We both got hidden and that was when Skinner said "three comments and get out". I just had to push him through five or six exchanges forgetting I was interfering with the original post.

He fixed me, I don't insist on the last word anymore.
