A few days.
Let's say March 3rd. Or maybe 4th, so that people who are busy during the week can do something on Saturday.

You really think there will be more posts?
I may add some more anagrams but that's pretty much it, I doubt someone will add more...

It makes a lot of sense. It's a sentence fragment using a less common usage of as meaning (in the form of). The sentence is completed by prefixing with "this forum is..."
So the end result (explanation of the joke) is:
This forum is the truth in the form of a bland, halftone memo.
A halftone memo is the inverse of a 2-tone memo. The truth is sarcastic humor. It makes a lot of sense, and it's really funny, especially when you start imagining the inverse process of making a halftone memo. It exists in the boundary between mathematics and reality and is probably the greatest anagram of the 21st century.
Someone could conceivably argue that printing memos with grey is a halftonery. I vehemently disagree since a) grey can be made with black as part of a 1-tone process and b) even if you watered down the black before applying the ink, that watered down black would be it's own tone i.e. grey.
So we need to push on the boundaries of physics. I am attempting to use sinusoidal tones and then have paper that only shows the positive (or negative) form of those tones, thus creating half-tone memos. For now though, everyone can participate in this glorious work of science by continuing to post the truth. I am expecting the Nobel any day now.
Just remember: Keep Truthin'. FOR SCIENCE!

You did kinda cheat. I'm ok with supporting you as your cheating was within the rules, but gloating about how you beat people who played fair seems a bit OTT.

So it's cheating when someone tells you who to vote for? I don't see that as cheating, it's just lobbying and it happens in the world all the time.

Meh, I'm just being a sore loser, but it does seem like you missed the spirit of the thing by using computer programmes to generate your answers,
Don't spam. Nowadays there are online anagram generators that will give you thousands of (mostly gibberish) anagrams. It's not our job to sift through your list of 8000 word strings and find a gem. It's your job to find the gem, and submit only that.
