He was busy dusting off the cases of the free ereaders at the time of the murder, according to PilotBob. MTH stated he would give a vague and misleading answer. When asked what he was doing at the time of the murder he stated, he was “moderating.” “There is a new thread on a new reader that has been getting heated and I was keeping tack of possible trolls.” My daughter and I believe the thread was placed there by Nate the Grate, as he was putting string on everything. The new reader was one of the prizes on the wall. Pshrynk was going to steal the reader, and mtravellerh clubbed him with the crowbar to protect it, in essence, he was moderating, or protecting the new ereader.
This was fun!  |

Now let's hope I go lucky in the draw! |
Congrats to you both! My family tried to help me, but they were just as wrong as I was. My son said that pshrink tripped on one of the threads left behind by Nate and scattered by Verancat. When he tripped, he accidentally hit the Red Button and crushed himself in the walls. My wife said she believed Zelda did it. When I asked why, she said, "I just do." In the end, their last-minute attempts to solve the case were as effective as my days of pouring over every nuance of every word in the story.
It was fun, though. Congrats to pshrink for a captivating tale.
