This happens when someone logs out unconventionally (ie. via ESC, BREAK,
etc.) and the game thinks that they are still there (I call this "leaving
a ghost").  Since it doesn't want someone to get double time by logging
on with two terminals, it doesn't let them in, claiming that they are schitzoid.
(since they exist twice, they are in a sense, schitzofrenic) Am I
making any sense?  Am I being any help?  I often had this problem myself
(when we had a game going on) and I'm not sure how to fix it.  I think that
the "DEITY" must clear this up.  I was never able to.
