..."Jack Mack is, of course, Murat, as Murat has admitted (https://groups.google.com/d/msg/rec.games.backgammon/5SzvNyxDTgg/GKwWHgSDua4J)"...
So, that's how the whole thing started... Hah hahhh! :)
Obviously, Murat was putting you guys on (knowing that you Sherlocks had no way of knowing whos is who in the cyber space(?)).
I still would like to know what made Stick think that I was Murat.
While waiting for the answer, let me tell you folks a personal story to the point.
When we were younger and went out to drink in bars, often we would get jolly and do silly things.
For example, in those days, not everyone had a cellphone in their hands. People would try to track their boyfriends/girlfriends by calling the bar's number and asking for them.
The bartender woul yell "Phone call for John/Jane Doe!"
Sometimes, if nobody came forward in few seconds, one of us would respond "Here! Coming! Just a Second!" and would try to strike a flirty/fun chat with the gal calling for John...
One time, John Doe hadn't answered because he was in the bathroom and couldn't just pull up his pants to get to the phone.
A few minutes later, there comes out a mean looking, seven feet tall Big Bad John Doe and asks the bartender who had called him.
Ooops... :( We barely got away from that one with a fast story and the lesson didn't stop us from keep doing it later.
Apparently, Murat still enjoys such sillinesses... :))
