You can always lock your door - or better, leave it unlocked with some form 
of trap :-D

Dude, I ever go outside *anyway*! :-P Being in this insane game would 
just mean that I'm even more paranoid than usual...

Besides, the rules claim that a player's room is OOB.

It's not usually, unless you are hosting some official event in there.  As a 
general rule, anywhere you can't avoid going due to other commitments is OOB 
(eg lecture rooms, labs, libraries, organised sports events, etc).  That was 
how it worked in my day anyway...

and spamming people.

(The *real* purpose should of course be completely obvious.)

Well, I can mention it now since your company's DNS records were changed 
- but finding your e-mail address was a trivial exercise before the 
record was changed. :-)
