Sooo... I did some post searching (going through a lot of pages, page by page from the the Traitor's gambit thread, the current campaign thread, and the ooc) and could not find anything about earbud communicator. I found that our comms got some scramblers on them from Organa, but that is is.
I read somewhere from Binder that threads were searchable, but still cannot see anything that would let me search threads.
