Hi Fragilis.
Nice one. 
1. Sin Bin - weird! I can see 297 threads in there... certainly moderation won't have anything to do with it, as by the time they get into the Sin Bin, they've already been passed.
2. The University has flagged a little because, in all honesty, we haven't had the time to run it properly. However we have Anna's replacement starting on Monday - fresh blood! - and I'll be handing over the University scheme to him to run. Hopefully that'll enable us to develop the scheme, as we're all rather fond of it.

It's very odd indeed. I see 186 in the Sin Bin as I write this. I have no idea how our counts could be different...
Oh, who's the new Italic? Can I link to his page in my next column?
Perhaps the newbie can help me lend publicity to the University. Even an update on which projects are in progress would be a great help. I know I applied quite awhile ago but have escaped the 'Current Projects' list so far.
Do I get extra points if I complete my project before you list it?

Ooops - I think I might have been looking at the Writing Workshop. 
Yes, I must have been...
I've had a look in the database, and all is well in the Sin Bin. Are you *sure* you counted the Sin Bin last week, not the Writing Workshop by accident? I just got them the wrong way round after all, though I can't understand why...
Odd. Oh well!
As for the new staffie, he is one of the current volunteers, and we'll make an annoucement on Monday when he's got himself an italic account. I'll be giving him responsibility for the University too, so when he's settled in, he'll definitely be able to help.

You know, I can't absolutely guarantee that I got the numbers the right way around. But I do double check. And since both my numbers were high (instead of one high and the other not), I'm still confused.
But perhaps we can chalk it up to user error in any case.
Cool about the new Italic. Now I get to guess who it's going to be...
...I'll keep my guess to myself, though. I don't want to make you tip your hand.

Is it that person who volunteered to 'make tea' in the "Jim'll fix it" talking point?
