His was originally too long, so I came up with the final version (exactly 55 characters)

Friends are winning 6-4 right now, not counting Seprix's picture which I don't understand. Is it supposed to be a vote for prime numbers?

What did you mean with your picture? If you didn't mean prime numbers and yuma is gone then the game is over

It's an ongoing game. You can read about what happened if you look at Yuma's posts, but I don't think I can talk details outside of the game before it is over.
