=compliment= Toast
It has been a pleasure having your images grace each of the announcements for roundz 240 through 250.  Thank you!

=congratulations= Players
Round 250 already!  At this rate, we'll reach 300 in no time.  Thanks for following the rulez -- well, at least most of the time -- and making this mod's job easier.

=aside= Will and Sandy
This ain't no little thing that's happening here!  Will, thanks for keeping this mod on her toes.  Sandy, you're the best co-mod ever.

While Jack was peeling potatoes and having a ciggie, Ennis was performing his ablutions.


=congratz= All Playerz
Wow, 250 rounds! Who knew it was possible??
More kudos to Mayor Will, Modettes Fran and Sandy.
Thank you, Toast, for the gorgeous round announcements.

Ennis' marriage to Alma bottoms out because of his inattentiveness, never taking a vacation with her and the girls, and doing "what she hated".

=congratz= Playerz
It's been a blast playing the last 250 rounds with you. Thanks to all of you for your creativity, wit and gumption. Special thanks to Toast for the fabulous round announcements and to Will and Fran for keeping this game fun, exciting and letter perfect.

Jimbo so enjoyed the excitement of the rodeo that he made clowning his bread-and-butter.

Belated birthday wishes!

=comment= Toast
I'll miss your snazzy round announcements.
Thanks for the nice art work.

Jack sang Water-Walking Jesus slowly like a dirge, to set off "distant coyote yips".

Jack complained of a fetid odor he noticed in the pup tent.

Jack and Ennis cherished their infrequent get-togethers in the mountains.

Jack and Ennis' relationship blossomed into a head-over-heels love affair during Tent Scene II.

[Fran]

"But it is Lee, whose calm and steady hand invisibly guides Brokeback Mountain from start to finish, who is most responsible for the film's success.  The inability to love, whether due to homophobia, violence, distance, or merely missed opportunity, is a crime of epic proportions, a tragedian's pallette.  In Lee's poignant Western landscape, our collective refusal to free love from the chains of moral superiority has broken the back of America.  We cannot continue down that path, no matter the costs."
