I don't care if you take the points, foot. I just don't like you calling Joe Pa a pedo. that's just wrongwrongwrong

and the nanny nanny boo boo reaction to being questioned about the ethics of the cheap points you're grabbing disappoint me as well. for shame shame shame.

it's like icing a kicker. legal, but shitty.

I hope you're happy.



tell me to eat you.

Listen, gang, it's not my game, it's not my fault and it's not worth trashing a silly amusing thread over. Couldn't we just leave it to f3 to decide whether he want to take the points or not in light of people's feeling on whether his approach was clever and/or morally indefensible. f3, I suspect you'd be complaining as loudly as anyone if a politician had done something similar to you. Maybe you should run for office, but that's a matter for a different forum. Karma will decide in the end

[footfootfoot]

Jesus you guys. Since when has anyone taken anything I write on these boards seriously?

I don't even know what icing a kicker is anyway Jim, so definitely eat me.

And maybe Joe wasn't a pedo but he didn't work too hard to out the shower jockey, again, I don't follow the news or football.

[jimhelm]

umf. thought i had waited long enough for it to be decided before i laid the guilt down.

i really dont care... it's just a stoopit game. was just trying to make foot uncomfortable.

not everybody.

[infinite monkey]

Hoo cares?

I thought Etta was pushing it, for what it's worth. But hoo fucking cares?

But let's not joke about it, ffs. :yawn:

Except for: everyone gets a trophy anyway, just for getting out of the car, right? I think it's nice to let others know what it's like to recieve all those awards they didn't get in school. Bless their wittle hearts.

[footfootfoot]

OK, so I think we are all in agreement that I get the points, right?

[infinite monkey]

I sold all my dead people to give you points
And you sold all your points to give me dead people.

Okay, I'm not serious about this game.
It's a little piece of fun.
And on the Cellar we didn't specify rules; in fact I remember objecting to a late entry before and being over-ruled.

However.
We used to play at work, for money.
£1 in the pot (metaphorically speaking) winner on points won the pot.
One joker to be played every year (under 50 or Clive Dunn).
Lists fixed by 1st January no changes no substitutions.
The best year came to about £12 as I recall - high stakes indeed! No, I never won.

Now I know that is not how we play here.
But my knee-jerk reaction is still that if someone is working on information received after 01.01.12, then they have an unfair advantage.
Of course it's not for money, and not even for bragging rights on here.

So I let it go. Have at it.
I just wanted to explain my reaction.
It's like going to someone's house where you win money on No Parking in Monopoly.
What, wait? You do it that way?
