Finishing up of PBM Illuminati

This message is just to let people know about about the status of
the PBM Illuminati game that I was running. I'm sure there weren't many
people were interested, and I hadn't sent a message to usenet
about it in quite a while.

The game has finally ended, in the 6th round.

I won't present a synopsis of what happened since the last message
about the game, since too much stuff went on and it's probably not very
interesting.

The Bermuda Triangle has just captured the Moral Minority, thus completing
its special victory conditions, winning the game.

Congratulations to the Bermuda Triangle! (Bob Odear and Brad Elmore)

The players:
	Gnomes of Zurich:	Malcolm Campbell
	Bermuda Triangle:	Bob Odear (who took over for Brad Elmore
					in early May)
	Network:		Leif Hedstrom
	Discordian Society:	Brantley Riley

At some point in the future, I may volunteer to run another PBM Illuminati
