10,000

No, I'm not going binary on you again (although this would equal 16 in decimal if it was binary). I've heard that the 10,000th Edited Guide Entry will be published today. Which of the three new EGEs makes the magic number is anybody's guess.

The ever creative Dmitri has thought up a new challenge for you, so sharpen your pens or clean your keyboards and get writing. We have news from around the Sundial, and The Reluctant Gaijin makes an appearance after a prolonged absence. That is not all, however, there is the usual mix of funny and clever things, things that make you think and things that make you sad. You'll find them all below.
