Irrelevant, I don't have a say in the matter.
Believe me, I would if I could. Incidentally, have you tried Firefox 4? Because Firefox 4 is actually fairly fast, noticeably more than Firefox 3

Yea, unfortunately it's still slower than IE, but I still think Firefox as the 2nd best browser behind chrome.

Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine. I accuse Ophiophagus. Hopefully /game

Z, xp is old. Try Ubuntu or Windows 7. IE9 is not actually a bad browser. It's fast, but not fast as chrome. (but defiantly faster than Firefox) However, Firefox is has more helpful ad-ons.
Windows 7 FTW.

Congratulations EFO, I am indeed ophiophagus. PM me your choice for the next Sassy.

I know I wasn't a very good sassy but I don't think the latter clues were too vague and I'll try to be better if someone ever picks me again for some reason. For this most recent clue, you had to compare the screenshot of the page with the actual page, you would find that each line of the rules had an extra letter, these letter spelled out potato, targeting IdahoSciGuy. You solved the inuyashakusho clue perfectly and I'll admit, the other ID clue was pretty vague. Poltergeist prank was supposed to lead you to "Ghost trick" the videogame from which the dancing officer in my sig comes.
If theGenius was an officer, I would have been gone much sooner (that random bunch of letters he posted was actually my username shifted one letter up). May I ask what tipped you off to my identity?

I did actually try to frame mingtian, but I still don't understand why you guys thought I was trying to frame prelude or theGenius or deeisinburg (he's been sassy before).

Good round ophiophagus, and congrats EFO for I guess being in the right place at the right time >.> It's interesting how fast everyone turned on ophiophagus- took just about 24 hours from when I was notified that TheGenius knew until know. You were a good assassinator, ophiophagus. The last clues weren't terribly vague- in fact, if I'm not mistaken, Idaho solved the 24010 one on chat right as time ran out. I don't know how everyone missed the robotman one >_> (come on guys). "Poltergeist prank", yeah, may be more suited for a crossword, but the last identity clue was good. Overall, I think it was a good round.

Yea i actually thought it was days for a minute but then didn't think you'd actually figure it out and I later forgot about it. I think I need a break from messing up as officer so I probably won't play next game.
