Did a search in the forum and found 25 smurf usuages after Labor Day. (date the forums were unveiled)

Found the one that was overlooked and read the time stamp for the edit. Turns out that in my haste and lookiing at the time stamp probably before the 1st cup of coffee only found the first two usages in the post.

As to the remainders. One was by the moderator explaining that the term was not to be used along with some other terms. Two were quotes by others that included the moderator message.

Ten were in a debate where a poster thought another term was as perjorative and used the term as a comparative example. (their post was quoted 9 times in the thread)

Two more were usages and 9 were quotes from those two usages. The 25th was a post that was included in the search response but had already been deleted.

I realize that there may have been more and trust that scoow already cleared them up after your message. Once again thanks for the assistance.
