"This Time to the Public Forum." It's used when you sent a message to a-d by mistake, intending to send it to a-b; if you want the message to count, you then have to sheepishly resend it to a-b, explaining that you sent it to the wrong forum initially. This sort of thing happened often enough that the apologies and sheepish explanations eventually collapsed into a single six-letter initialism. (It also seems to have taken on a sort of Agoran-legal meaning, approximately "I perform the actions in the message quoted above" – quoting a message from a-d in a-b doesn't normally perform the actions in it, but the TTttPF clarifies that you're meaning to take the actions.) This could lead to an interesting CFJ – is a "TTttPF" sufficient to take the actions in a message you're quoting if some players and/or the intended recipients don't know what "TTttPF" means? The situation is comparable to that of "nkeplwgplxgioyzjvtxjnncsqscvntlbdqromyeyvlhkjgteaqnneqgujjpwcbyfrpueoydjjk", but different enough that I think it makes for a different case (as most long-time agorans know what TTttPF means but the whole running joke with nkep is that most players don't know what it stands for). -- ais523
