The Bar Tab Board and You: A clarification, not a correction

Just as a reminder:

When someone makes a purchase in game their name goes on the Giant Milli-Tab Board of doom. Bar, which who evidently has the computing capacity of Microsoft Excel, keeps track of the purchase and payment history of the particular pup in question.

A fund for the Poor/Bound has been set up under the name, The Joe Manco Fund.
Putting money on Bar's Top for distribution to those whut need it will be taken as a donation to The Joe Manco Fund. From there the money will trickle over to those whut need it.

No actual accounting is needed...which is good, at least from where I'm standing.

In conclusion:
Math is hard, let's go shopping.

We now return you to your game, already in progress.

I still kinda think there's no way the board could possibly show everyone's name at once. But that could just be me. XD

So... the bar at the end of (all) the universe(s), featuring any number of witches, psychics, dwarves/elves/wraiths/zombies et al doesn't bother you, but the Very Large Tab Board with the (finite) number of names on it does?

Just checking. XD

It's just the way my brain works. I figure it scrolls through names, or something. 90 million miles of tab board (which is practically what you'd need to get everyone on) just seems excessive. XD

It's like the New York Stock Exchange scrolling marquee... only with tabs instead of stock.

Random pup: YES, mine went down twenty points!

I always figured it shows the names you're looking for.

Or whatever names are convenient, plotwise.

Exactly!
