Yeah, I realized that. I’ve added a message to that effect at the top of the post. The zip files will be combined, though; that won’t be as bad because I have directories for each author and no individual author has that many messages.
@BlueSkySprite The passwords conceptually go with the private key file, and are to prevent anybody who gets ahold of that file from actually decrypting it. Since you plan to publish that file and we aren’t likely to hack in to your computer in the mean time, I don’t think there’s a point to having a passphrase in addition to the private key (except for your idea for getting all your secrets published upon your death, which is brilliant but I expect will be considered against the spirit of the rules).
I plan to be up for a while yet, so I won’t post my night plans yet. They will be my in-game night plans no matter what, but might just be “I plan to triple-check the lock on the door, then try to go to sleep while thinking about last night. I’ll probably think, and then feel guilty for thinking, ‘At least I wasn’t that close to him.’, as I have several times today.”.
