Well done. So you do keep records of IP addresses. Of course you would. I can picture the

I could've taken evasive measures when registering, but realised that wasn't going to work; eventually I'd have slipped up. I don't want to live like that. So I went in essentially naked, fingers crossed.

I wouldn't have been the first attracted to it. Unkraut, the resident theologian, also beckoned.
From there, who knows. I didn't have a plan, other than to be honest, oddly enough.
