Reposting because this didn't seem to have propagated yesterday.

NOTE: This will be repeated for every UJ6 post I made yesterday. (I will
hunt down posts worth reposting from other threads another time, unless
they propagate on their own by then.)

That is correct, and now I have to take this off of the 800s' repost.

And this is the final one to repost. Although I removed the
then-unanswered 600-pointer now that Cape Dweller has claimed it.

For some inexplicable reason, though, it seems my posts from yesterday
did not propagate.

I didn't know the answer without consulting Google (I knew who the twin
was though), so I don't feel it's right to get the points. Besides I've
won a UJ already :)

Feel free to switch to my local news server for rgcud. Host name
"joesbox.cjb.net", username and password "udic". It may not be so
important now that UJ6 is almost over, but I tend to have pretty good
propagation in general.

Good thing I mentioned the permutations then. When I played U6, I think
I tried all of them to see if anything special happens for one of them. But
no, they're all the same.

They're all going out today. Looks like the news spool of whichever
server you're using fell over. Ah, well.

Yeah, I was thinking it was just "unorus", considering that that is the
order they recite the Principles in the Book of Circles.

You are again correct, 'Phid! After all, they outnumber the bandits
something like five to one.

Furthermore, you are now #1 on Helgraf's hit list, having scored SIXTEEN
HUNDRED points for this clue. Yes, you stumbled upon the last remaining
Daily Double.
