I have to ask, is there something wrong with my copy or does your copy of Tease bleep out orgasms as o*****s. It does this for a bunch of words. Was my copy censored? I mean that isn't even a bad word.

Thank you, Alysa, for that spectacular reading :D
Montrose Magpies Quaffle Repairbamaace83 sees the broken quaffle and thinks "I have to repair it quickly"
Cat or Mods if they are around. Beater attacked back a seeker book (Rebecca already finished). Is that allowed or should it be the current seeker book? We know seekers are new this round.
*climbs into the stands after a stupidly long day and dredges up the energy to stomp and holler and cheer on the insane people on the field*You're all completely nuts! :D
Team Who Must Not Be Named Beater DefenseBeater Alysa is fixin' to get some grub at The Cinderella Cook-Off!
(defending seeker Rebecca from distraction)
Lexi wrote: "Cat or Mods if they are around. Beater attacked back a seeker book (Rebecca already finished). Is that allowed or should it be the current seeker book? We know seekers are new this round."I thought yes, because the rules say "The Beaters may try and distract the Seeker by reading one of the five task books. " And nothing about it being the current book.
