This log is a humorous out-of-character log of real events which occurred after the name database was purged. Many people rolled up characters with ludicrous names and were sent to the Last Chance Inn to rename themselves. This log was copied from a forums post on 10/13/2002 by SWORDCHIC, which was itself a re-post of a post. "Ghost Girl posted this a while back and I finally had the sense to copy it. I love this one! enjoy ~ SC"


This is what goes on in the Last Chance Inn and it was dated August 12, 1998. The following is all true, with nothing added and parts deleted for clarity.
