Ah yes, well done - I wondered who of you nitwits would be the first to pick it up. Not really surprised it was you. Have a cookie.

As in LUCKy bastard, or LUCKed out. Geddit.

Anyway, thanks to the spoilers it is now assured that noone here will want to play it. Good.

Dammit, you're right. I edited my original post. Sorry 'bout that folks.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>

Then again, it probably was not Berli's finest performance either ;)

BTW - liked the tent peg remark. Was that yours or did your big sister write it out for you? Careful with them Crayons.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Thanks. Send me a setup someday and I'll do you the honor of a similar sendup, assuming I'm not getting my booty kicked.

But seriously folks, it's a funfunfun scenario, even if it's from Germanboy.

Have a good weekend Dan. Say hi to the wifey. Enjoy yourself.

you'll note that I do YOU the honor of spelling and bolding your name (not that you deserve it but there are the forms to be observed). I note further that YOU do NOT do the same for me. May I suggest that you mend your ways lad. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Well, in that case I am caught in a heartrending, tragic conflict of duties. My knight, the peerless Brave Sir Marlow has enjoined me to refer to you as Jo Xia and so must it be. Knight says, Squire does, this be a binding troth. You may have noticed, however, that I do bold it for your reading convenience.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR> Your challenge I find to be in the improper format, correct it and I'll take your request under advisment. I find this new lack of respect unsettling.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Fair enough, I can change all but the spelling of the name:

Fair Jo Xia! The reputation of your battlefield wit, verve and panache precedes you. My mailbox thirsts for the sort of turn accompanying notes which I believe that only you, Jo Xia, in the fountain of your verbal ingenuity, can devise. Slopwaggon generally writes not a whit, Panzer Leader is errant, and young Sir Lars, while promising, is still teething in the art.

Further, you Jo Xia have rightly pointed out the rather tangential nature of my vector in the MBT, and being the eager sponge and learner that I am, and left to my own devices by my absent knight, I must gather up what scraps I may from the board of my illustrious betters. Hence I asks, nicely, but DOES NOT BEGS, for a vicious match with much on- and off-board canonry. But in deference to your seniority I leave all parameters to your illustrious choosing. May we soon meet on the field in amicable hostility, and see who can let fly the loudest fart! (Cry not 'juvenile' over my reference to a foul wind coming from astern, for it is in the finest medieval tradition)

So I repeat, Sir Jo Xia I waft this challenge in your general direction, honeyed over with bathroom rose-petal spray, but masking a scent so vile you would wish to eradicate it from this our earth. May it be as it must be.

Jo, I know this may be hard for you to understand given the history of discipline problems you have had with your squires, and the problems you are now experiencing in you (totally inadequate) execution of the role of Justicar, but CMplayer is only obeying the first order I gave him when I took him under my wing, and that was to use your “party” name in order to remind the ‘Pool of your continuing attempts to take over control of the MBT. Sure, you always appear to defer to the Old and Incontinent ones before you attempt to usurp more power, or rewrite ‘Pool history, but I know your ways Red Jo, you are only waiting until our guard is low, and then you start the revolution.

But we are watching Jo.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Fair enough, I can change all but the spelling of the name:<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> What am I to do? YOU find yourself caught 'twixt wind and wave? Thus also am I. However, the duty of a Squire to a Knight overcomes all, it's not YOUR fault that you are pledged to a foul and visionless creature who spurns tradition and knows not of common decency. It's not YOUR fault that Marlow is so lacking in the everyday niceties that bind a society together that he passes gas in public, sniffs and says out loud "Ah ... liver and onions if I'm not mistaken, it was a GOOD dinner." No, good Squire CM Player (for you see I am a Knight of my word, it's a pity you must be obligated to such a swine ... and I don't mean a pig, no for a PIG is a small and relatively inoffensive animal. I'm talking about a SWINE ... like the SWINE in "Hannibal". Great, ugly, ill bred beasts that grunt and wallow. Still, it's not YOUR fault and I commend your loyalty.

Barring the unfortunate reference to flatulence (only to be expected for one who squats by the table of Marlow) it was as fair a challenge as I've seen. OGSF could learn from it. WELL DONE INDEED LAD.

But I've got too many games going, sorry.

A setup will be coming but you must give me some time. I really DO have too many games going and have to shoehorn one in to accomodate you.

BUT NO MORE DAMNIT, the rest of you young guns will have to find some other gunslinger to make your reputation on.

Plus poor ole Shaw is shakin in his books, or screens as it may be. Me to you gamey bastard with endless artillery and a +100% force balance.

I would have just said, "Joe, you malordous, toffey-nosed, sallow-cheeked pervert. Quit humping the cat and send me a set-up." Much simpler, no long words for the geek to stumble on, and saves some wear and tear on the local feline.

Now for Peng or Sean, it would be longer, more flowerly, and have endless obscure literary references. For Marlow it would be just a fart joke followed by a challenge, and for Perdido it would be a scientific discussion of the downfall of the dry martini.

That's exactly what I was thinking when I challenged you, Slaps, but I toned it down in case someone's kid was reading.

I think it is a result of his glue huffing habit. He actually thinks that a Knight of the Pool would lower himself to battle with a SSN! Quite frankly Jo, I am surprised that you even spoke to him. As you of all people should well know, the proper mode of address for such 'Pool dippers is a gob of spit on the top of his pointy head.

Yes, but as a defacto squire of the pool (although Ronin) and soon a defacto knight, I must be faced. Also, look at the fine work I did setting up an alternative to the Peng thread to drain away the Grogs.

By the way, I will bold your names when I attain knight hood.

(Just a thought, I could invite all the friendly punters from the Antithecess Thread over here for a week to ease our ruptured feelings about having a competitor, would everyone like that? Then we could have regular get togethers, perhaps combining the two groups into one at some future date!!!! Boy, I would sure be willing to do this if it would make youse guys happy, really I would.)

Don't you realise that there are enough people to hate in the world already, without your putting in so much effort to give us another?

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Look! He did a flip!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Indeed he did MrSpkr and now we just have to wait for the judges to score it. I don't know that we've ever seen a full gainer in the layout position done quite that way before but he certainly executed it with authority. He didn't quite stick the landing though and all that brown stuff dripping off his ears couldn't have helped his scores. Okay here we go ... OH TOO BAD ... the former East German judge gave him a 7.5 ... that should end his chances tonight.

Because I'm quite sensible enough to do that sort of thing at home. That way, the booze is better and cheaper, and I know the only louts I have to deal with are all of you.

I'm just home from the Sarah Street Grill where I have had my fill of Sam Adams Octoberfest and Gelnfiddichth or however they spell the damn thing.

Fortunately I did not run into a Dragoonsplatter type who likes to beat up drunk people and pods or I would be in shackles with an asp up my ass...or something. God damn the pusher and god damn the man, and god damn the pusher man. Don't step on the grass, Sam. All will pay who disagree with me! Please give up we already lost the fight alright.

Updates?

OHKAY!

the aofp regrest to infomer you all that the thing known as Shaggy has escaped the dreaded askertisk by beating us into a bloody pulp and generating this hated and horrific score - made all the more terrible because it has taken a long time to get here -

AofP 46

Shaggy 45

A GODDAM DRAW!

Oh and it was a bloodbath too. more casualties than you could shake a stick at, although i'm lead to believe that the more severe casualties take no notice whatsoever of sticks being shaken at them.

In other news, Not one of you rat pugs has sent a turn for over three days - now I am notorious for slow play, wrong turns sending, and general idiocy during PBEM play, but here it is, and there you are an here I am and I have no turns to play. eh?

Peng tipsy but still sort of upright but not for long
