Flash flooding following heavy rains caused the nearby RED RIVER to overflow its banks, resulting in ankle deep liquid that has entered the computer room at GG headquarters.
The last time it rained this much, Noah built himself a boat!
El Rancho Garth wranglers are busy working the pumps, while staff members have lined up in a bucket brigade to dump heavy water into the ravine.
As soon as conditions are dry enough to proceed, the final contest of performers portraying fictional versions of real persons will be posted.

We did it!
Wranglers and GG staff working together have diverted the flood waters, under the cool-headed direction of the Quizmaster.
Sharing it with you all as it was documented below, in grainy black-and-white.
Final contest of the month to be posted tomorrow.

ahhhhhhhhh .. your twin perhaps ! Was Cookie the one lying down in the ditch and diverting the water ? No, that was Dwight the D-D-C Doorman -- he who greets all incoming members. Didn't you recognize him? (ooppss, I forgot -- you've never made it that far).

I did make it to DDC the time I actually won a game … but he had already gone home for the day by the time I got there so I missed seeing him.

Bat -- did you really once make it all the way to the DDC? I don't remember that!
Let me check the archives to verify -- oh, wait a minute ... I can't. They get ruined in the flood.
