Daylight Savings Time Reminder
Today, many countries in Europe switch to daylight savings time, including the United Kingdom. [livejournal.com profile] arwen75 was kind enough to point out to me when the U.S. and Canada switched to daylight savings time a few weeks back that GMT remains the same, even when the UK switches to daylight savings time. (Numbers are posted and closed based on GMT, which is apparently different from BST, a fact I wasn't aware of! :) Therefore, unless your country switched to daylight savings time today, the time numbers will be posted and closed will not change for you. If your country did switch to daylight savings time today, the numbers will be posted and closed one hour later.

Error on Colors Card
[livejournal.com profile] paranoidangel42 caught a pretty significant error on the numbering of the Colors card. The last column should be O's, not G's. Therefore, the last column of prompts should be:

O61: Blue
O64: Brown
O69: Fuchsia
O73: Bright Green
O75: Copper

Yes, this includes one of today's prompts (for O64), so if you're playing that card and want to claim that stamp, make sure you work that prompt into your story before the number closes today.

Sixth-Place Winners!
And the winners list continues to grow! For O62, congratulations to Jay of Lasgalen, Febobe, CrackinAndProudOfIt, Naurring, Linda Hoyland, Elleth, Cairistiona, IgnobleBard, Alma Heart, Lady Brooke, and havamahal who earned a BINGO on the Injuries and Other Ailments card! CrackinAndProudOfIt also earned a second BINGO on the Let's Get Meta card, and Embi earned a BINGO on the Maglor in History 1 card! Finally, Lady Brooke earned a second BINGO on the Riddle Me Writerly Card. Wow, what a day!

If you've won on a particular number, I will send your banner after the number closes. If you won on a number that's closed, you should have gotten your banner yesterday. If you did not, please let me know.

Author's Note: I've tried poems in Ogden Nash's style in the past—but this particular grouping of prompts woke up my Ogden Nash muse again. One of the hallmarks of Nash's humorous style are lines which are very mismatched in length and scansion. Also you will notice a famous line from movie-verse in this one.
Summary: Another poem in the style of Ogden Nash.
