So I join 2Fort (because it really is the best fort) and there's my buddy 'Zeke. Before I can even get out my traditional greeting to let the server know I'm there (I usually cake some hapless pub for cryptic reasons like "you're being oblique", "that's non-euclidean", "no antediluvian horrors allowed", and "you got chocolate in my peanut butter"), Zekey is offering up a trade. Normally I don't accept unsolicited trade offers (cuz all the scrubs be after my swag) but since it's E-Z I accept. He's been good at laughing at my jokes for the past five years so I'll do him a solid. Dude pitches me a hat. Of course I'm not one to pass on a free hat so I snag it. Once back in the server I ask him "say man, what gives?" to which he replies "you won my raffle". Of course I !upped him.
What I'm trying to say is, very swell of you Ezekiel. Thank you.
