A Sign from the Sky Cat

How to tell when the Trickster is telling you that you should leave the upload for the morning: Realize you’ve forgotten to put the extended credits in the manual. Open the manual file. Add a new page with the credits. Watch as OpenOffice crashes and loses everything you just wrote. …
