Yo!
Due to the possibility of my changing work schedule, the Pox has gone live, as it were.
Thanks to everyone who has volunteered to start it off - if you aren't free until Friday the boxes will still be kicking around.
If you did not volunteer to be a starting patient, you are still very much welcome to find and open a box and help start things off, we just had to make sure at least one person was going to do it!
A reminder of how it works - everyone who opens a box is infected. You might notice a little puff of air in your face and a few black specks in the air (imagine the Simpsons episode where the flu jumps out the Japanese juicer - Youtube alas doesn't let me show you).
The pox is infectious to others after six hours until the spots are gone. It is caught by touching an infected person and not washing your hands.
Symptoms include green spots, sneezing, a really really bad hair day, and an urge to rhyme (not compulsary!!). It lasts a couple of days and does not cause serious illness. You can get it more than once.
If you are an investigator feel free to be suspicious of the skeletal gentleman who will, in a couple of days, be back to see whether everyone is having fun. He will be being careful not to be seen actually distributing the boxes though, so we would appreciate it if players of observant pups can play along with that please :)
Okay I think that covers it. Questions?

It's not something that kills people, more a spooky pox, so I see no problem with dead people getting it.

In general, the more fun for the more people the more we will be happy.
