Nice endgame, guys! Protocol 97 was a success! And thanks to Protocol 99, we don't have to worry about Them anymore, right? Hello? Agent DeKiller speaking. I have them tricked into thinking we're defeated. Prepare to send out our real attack.

ALL UNITS BE ADVISED, PROTOCOL 101 IS NOW IN EFFECT. OPERATION "ROUND TWO" IS A GO.

Congrats to Gamer and everyone else. I'm looking forward to playing these cases.

Oh, did you guys remember to put Pluto back where you found it? We don't want the Plutonians getting mad with us humans.

Speaking of which, I didn't even get a consolation prize for shedding out actual dough-cash-money for comp hype. :<

Also, here's another thing of note:
Calvinball wrote:Here, Reecer, take this public service medal as a sign of our gratitude for bringing life to this thread.
(Little does he know that it's actually a bug that will record everything he says! When he monologues about the cool things in his case, I'll be able to hear him and steal all his ideas before the competition ends! AHA! AHA! MWAHAHAHAHA-- wait, am I typing out loud?)
I didn't actually get the hype award in thread! But it's all fine, because I did get the PSA one, which is also an actual award I got.

And now, confirming that I do indeed understand deadlines, I have created my showcase thread in an hour or two. Here's the link. Have fun.

Don't worry, we got it back in place. By the way, the deal was that they get to move Earth for whatever they want later, so you're warned now.
The score is still Q to 12. Shirley Homes avatar by my Invisible Friend. They're an awesome artist!
