Now then, now then, Spendi, as Jimmy Saville would no doubt say if he was writing this. If you look at the first post you will see the rules for this game- for game it is- and they're not difficult to grasp.

Grasping is probably not the problem, what we are dealing with here are people who are so determined to sho their individualism that they despise rules, or disregard them completely out of sheer arrogance.

Arrogance and A2K members in the same sentence? Say it ain't so! For this site is a repository of the finest examples of decorum, tolerance, modesty and harmony.

Harmony is what you are always trying to establish, my friend. I try too, but not always with success.

Success is surely relative, Francis. Perhaps it is merely a case of nuances getting a trifle confused?

Confused as to what RTBI means, some esoteric webspeak, or a candidate for the acronym game perhaps. Hello there, Lezzles, nice to see you.

You never know what or who you will come across in life. Maybe we should study premonitions.

Premonitions are a very interesting phenomenon, to be sure. There is an interesting essay in yesterday's Guardian which examines one man's theory that the soul, and the self-awareness of the brain in all its complexity (not you, Spendi) are a product purely of evolution and not as believed by God-botherers.

God-botherers have always referred stuff they can't understand to some higher being, because it's easier than having to work it out. It also keeps the lower orders nicely subjugated.

Subjugated is how I feel right now. Supine with sorrow. There was nothing other than lack of concentration involved. When one habitually refers stuff one can't understand to some higher being concentration is paramount and I failed. But it is not because it makes things easy to understand. It is simply a practical way forward with something that is impossible to understand and beyond the wit of man.

Tirade is a difficult word to begin a sentence with except for sentences such as this.

This game is supposed to have two sentences. Do you mind to add one?

Well, the rules (quite simple) are laid out in the first post here.

[there were a few blips above, when some posts got crossed and people were making other personal remarks, but normally it progresses as originally intended. Flexibility, that's the keynote Rolling Eyes :wink: Very Happy ]

So to continue, and going from "mix"...

Mix it up a bit, that's the ticket. That way your opponent has no idea what you're going to do next....John McEnroe was a master at that.
