Post by: Lorric on March 22, 2012, 01:20:36 pm: It's one of two things.

A. We're all victims of the Ten Year Troll, and soon Tolwyn will come and reveal his true name, TrollWin.

B. The cats are on to us. They know our involvement could turn the war, but they know we can't get in if we don't have the software, and they've unleashed a viral attack to block our involvement in the war and humanity is doomed and the end of the World 2012 prophecy is about to be fulfilled.
