March 5, 2024: Hoping To Win A Telegrammy Award For This Post

I hope this Daily Illuminator finds you well. Stop. Today I ponder another idea that I don't have any immediate use for but is cool enough to share. Stop. The United States still has a working telegram system, as do 24 other countries. Stop. I really want to include a telegram in a modern RPG adventure or other tabletop game, as a plot point or cool artifact. Stop.

While writing this I also learned about words designed specifically as code for telegram abbreviations. Stop. I can't wait to make use of nalezing or empanel in the future. Stop. Yes, I know that punctuation wasn't used in actual telegrams. Stop. I'm going for a style. Stop. If it annoys you, please feel free to jump on the forums and tell me. Stop.
