I remember RS well but can't add any knowledge, other than he swiftly rose to the top of the posting leaderboard in very short order. I found him voluble and charming, a delightful chatting colleague.

While Rubbersnail didn't invent the game, he did introduce the term "Lyrically Speaking" into the Bored lexicon. That was what he titled his nightly (as in middle of the night) posts that contained lyrics to a song he had on his mind...

Sadly, he'd become the first BB who was known to have passed. I wish I could remember his full name, and I know there was a photo of him uploaded to the Phoenix Bored, which itself is long gone...
