@Brandon_J, it's been more than 1.5 minutes since Brandon_J provided a new letter, and you still haven't indicated whether clue #45 is alive or dead.
@GentlePurpleRain, it's been more than 1.5 minutes since Brandon_J provided a new letter, and you still haven't indicated whether clues #2 and #9 are alive or dead.

10:00 PM
Ok, I won't say anything else for 60.0 minutes, unless you tell me to !speak. I will continue to star/unstar clues as I'm able, and I'll still keep track of the game.

103 was Rapini?
 
Hey no worries, have fun with whatever you’re doing!
103 is close, I was thinking about RAPESEED
 
10:17 PM
Oh lol
 
281016 is RADIX?
(And a hush fell over the crowd...)

1 was RAMEKIN
 
Wait, why that number?
 
common bases are 2, 8, 10, and 16
 
281016 ✔️

Still too long to type out :)

104 was RADIUS
 
104: yep
 
76 RACCOON
 
Was 3 supposed to be a cryptic clue, or is it just wordplay?
 
and lagomorph RABBIT
just wordplay
there was no def
 
10:22 PM
YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME
 
76 ✔️
74 ✔️
 
My mom's huge technology problem just fixed itself
and I left the game for it :(
 
75, no idea. what was that?
and welcome back Brandon
 
Was it a “just restart the computer” situation?
 
yah
 
10:23 PM
75 was rapture
 
oh. hah!
derp
 
I should be more careful when I defend
Pi, you wanna shot at defending?
 
@JohnDvorak ...well technically that’s what happens, but still though...
 
gone for a bit now
 
I have a feeling I’ll do even worse than you actually, but yeah I’ll try defending
 
10:25 PM
You can't do worse than me
I left
 
@PiIsNot3 if it was a puzzle, ... "Puzzles should be forward-solvable from information they contain, not fruitless exercises in "guess what the setter was thinking", and should contain all the information needed to solve in the initial post (if vital info is added later in a "hint", that's not a hint, it's a fundamental part of the puzzle and needs to be there to start!)"
 
Maybe flying people
 
I was more commenting on the wording of the clue than the actual answer
 
I think actually floating is more appropriate
 
flying implies rapid movement
 
10:26 PM
But isn't the idea that they fly off to heaven?
anyway
 
but ... yeah. i mean, that the answer fits is pretty clear. but that's a different thing from being able to reach it from the clue. :)
 
I suppose this isn't the place for eschatology
(finally got to use that word)
anyone want to defend?
that isn't going to be a jerk and leave like that last guy?
 
I don't believe in rapture either, but then again neither do I in talking racoons
 
Well we have to make sure that we have enough people to play first
 
o/?
 
10:28 PM
Still alive
 
"caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air" has a fairly floaty sense to it to me.
o/
 
1 Thessalonians 4:17, right?
 
Yah
 
I always thought of floating as having no movement, which is why I was confused
*make that little to none
anyway
Pi, you still alive?
 
I can go for a quick one
 
10:31 PM
Gareth says he's stepping out, right?
 
He’s halfway out and in I believe
We can still play with 4
 
I think it's Mr. Dvorak or the irrational guy to defend
 
I guess I’ll step up to the plate now
 
*cheers*
 
I’ll keep it short, though, I got somewhere to go in an hour
 
10:33 PM
