Editors note:
So, it has suddenly dawned on me that it would be beneficial for everyone to come an agreement as to what time it is when the Nibbler is published. What day is it? What time....? O dear it's confounding. So from here on out, (or until a reasonable facsimile of what I'd determine "here", and, "out" to be), I shall use GMT time and the European dating system as it is used more often throughout the world.
That makes it 2:16 3-4-2010 GMT

I am 6 hours behind GMT
cool...I'm from the past...or wait. Better! I'M FROM THE FUTURE!

Lots of threads, no time to read them all? Here are today's MouseHunt news, highlights, and gossip! Read on:
If you don't know Walter, you don't know Jack. So hop on over and discuss your feeling and sip tea with each other while your at it. Say "hi" to Walter and tell Jack he owes me a twenty.
But as the Dojo festivities close to a close you can also discuss your catch rates and other numerical data at this particular thread: LINK
Well, in case you missed it,
FIRE SALT FRIDAY!!!!
(cue sirens and horns.....annnndddnn...stop)
MouseHunt : (become a fan to get the scoop first)
The Maki weekend event has come to an end. This Friday will be Firesalt Friday! Mice in the Jungle of Dread will be dropping double Fire Salt all day long! Watch this space for official announcement of start/end times.
Wanna talk about it? Jason Tolpin seems to be very excited about talking strategy. Go HERE. Unless you'd rather talk elsewhere-Then go HERE!
Firesalt is a VERY DIFFICULT commodity to acquire. We highly suggest taking advantage of this awesome chance while you can. Start getting your stuff together for the JoD.
***********Grove access petition and timer thread
Help Jared. The Devs continue to harass him constantly and won't give him any reason as to why. He needs your help! Time is running out, again and again and again.....
************Continued FB errors
Really? Is this news? How about we make this ez. On odd days just screw up the apps and make $#!^ disappear or appear or double up. On even days you can do something funky where you try and give all my personal info to foreigners and whomever has a printed coupon. Full moons will be good for friend deletions and rumors of making FB a pay site. Then for the equinox' and solstice' you can reboot me or maybe tease me with a new koob.
I know it goes against your principles of just, "mixing it up", but it will improve overall efficiency and streamline your costs.
Just think about it.
**********Threadjack the Threadjacking thread
How much thread can a threadjacker jack if a threadjacker jacked threads?
Go ahead and meet Jack.....

Anon sure does write a lot of stuff.
So far, so good, and don't forget to sound the horn!

MouseHunter of the Day
Dave Vanderburg
Hunter’s Title: Lord ( 76 % )
1. If you were a mouse, what type would you be and what would you do to escape the traps set out for you?
I would be a Longtail mouse and use my well-adapted tail to lift cheese from elaborate traps (and do what I can to hurry those devs up and release me!)
2. How much cheese do you eat in a day? Which MH cheese are you most likely to eat in real life? Would you ever consider crafting cheese at home?
The cheese is my fridge usually ends up going a bit moldy before I can use it all. Hmm... wonder if moldy cheddar would be any good for hunting with...
3. Have you skipped anything important just to sound the horn (ie school, work, sleep)? Did you enjoy it?
I'm usually hunting on my phone when away from a computer. Luckily I don't have to worry about skipping work to play, I play all day long at work! When the iPhone app is finally released it's sure to increase my addiction level!
4. Which mouse would you most like to meet? (Assuming the mice could talk, of course.) What questions would you ask that mouse in an interview?
Would love to meet the Nugget mouse. Would probably pet it more than ask questions. That's one cute little mouse.
5. When was the last time you caught a mouse in real life?
I don't think I've ever actually caught a mouse "IRL". If I had to, I'd be sure to use a humane trap, most likely an Ambrosial Portal... well I guess if I had to catch some Ravenous Zombies.
6. What is your favorite trap in the game and why?
The Chrome Drillbot and Aqua base just looks so darn sweet!
7. Do you think you could beat an Aged Mouse at chess?
I think using the pieces of my Zugzwang's Last Move would give me a distinct edge.
8. What was the last occasion where you caught a rare or difficult mouse with a ridiculously low amount of cheese?
The Dragon came somewhat quickly for me in contrast to the Acolyte that seemed to take me over a month of hunting. I usually don't run too low on cheese - I'm the type of hunter that likes to stockpile a huge amount of bait before setting out to catch a specific mouse.
9. What has been the worst decision of your MouseHunt career, in hindsight?
I guess "MouseHunting career" has a whole different meaning for me! I can't think of anything specific. For the most part I've been having fun now for over two years both developing and playing MouseHunt!
10. If the Ornament Mouse, Bottled Mouse, and Lambent Crystal Mouse were having a fight, who would win and why?
I'm going to pick the Bottled Mouse. He just looks like the type that would be quick to deal with you if you were to interrupt his reading. I've always thought highly of that mouse since Bryan first suggested it and then Jesse drew it in about 15 minutes. The art team really blows me away sometimes with their talent.
