Rachets, you got number 4 correct. As promised, you get one karma. I also edited your post and wrapped your answer in a "spoiler" block that can only be revealed by selecting the text. ![](http://syonidv.hodginsmedia.com/vsmileys/nerdy.png)

#14 is Thyme, not GEL.
I wanna know the back story on #13, I'm not one of the "old crew" from MSN.

Chiver gets a karma for getting #14 right, when I recharge. Lassie gets a karma for #5 after that (although a certain someone didn't read yon instructions ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) ).

I know, apple. You didn't "officially" declare, though. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) I'm'a give you all your karmas now. ETA: POM gets a karma too for #7. ETA: OK. Karma successfully delivered. ![](http://syonidv.hodginsmedia.com/vsmileys/thumbsup.png)

Since I didn't get credit (or maybe I did) I'll answer #13 too...
TD2K. During the first stages of the snow leapord war, Virgil wrote a big "article" or "story" or something about Trinity's Dogs being attacked. Anyway, I think that's what it was. I can't remember the whole story though.

That's close, apple, although it was before my eyes were opened to the evil of the uncia. P&M featured a news story about police breaking into a private residence (where they believed a drug operation was underway; it turned out they were wrong) and shot the family's two dogs dead. The family was suing the sheriff's department for the raid. The first name of the female plaintiff was "Trinity". TD2K made an off-the-cuff statement in the thread. I replied with a story that explained the origins of his username. It was the epitaph that he and his wife Trinity had inscribed on their pets' graves after the tragedy: Trinity's Dogs; 2 Killed I'll give you another karma for the noble attempt. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Gah! POM's gone crazy! Lassie's in denial. Chiver's doin' it 'cause everybody else is doin' it. ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png) Iggy gets a karma for #2, even though Chiver guessed it. And she still qualifies for... Triple karma bonus round! For anybody who hasn't already submitted an answer, you get three karma per correct answer (clue number and poster name). And one final cryptic hint: "Look first at the letters."
