Thanks fellas. This thread has to rate right up there with "Is Deirdre Naked" from OWO days.

By the way... ... stealth is king.

Why the hell am I not in this thing anyway. I had 54 homers back in '69. And a lifetime batting average of .346 .

:-P~~

MikeH · January 21, 2003, 10:44

54 Homers?

D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh, D'oh.

FrustratedPoet · January 21, 2003, 10:46

The thought of 54 Homers in a 69 is too horrible to contemplate.

Hey Dark Cloud... Did you ever think that by not counting their votes, you are allowing an even bigger disruption

And stop spamming this thread... bans I hand out are a little tougher than not being able to vote for who you want (which is still wrong)

SlowwHand · January 21, 2003, 11:05

What a crowd of babies.

Why don't you tell Mark how to run his board ?
Why not? You let Dark Cloud do all the work, then run your mouth about how he runs it.

Sheeit. I was just elected last round. Take my spot.
Big fat hairy fuking deal.

MOBIUS · January 21, 2003, 11:08

I hereby would like it to be known that I am intent on a barnstorming run at a HoF place during the next elections - all votes gratefully received when the time comes...

Sometimes you really take the biscuit, Sloww...

First you complain that people are not respecting DC's work, and then you disrespect him by implying that your spot in the HoF is worthless to you anyway...

That's only 49 Homers

uhhhh, no, Gnat Nuts.
I respected DC's HoF just fine.
It's the bastardization of what was once his HoF that I care not one bit about.
Clear up your misconception ?
Good.

KrazyHorse · January 21, 2003, 11:25

Pedantic asswad.

Whoa, I totally forgot about Doc S. Yeah, I think he deserves HoF status.

DarkCloud, sorry to be a pain in the rear (or am I?

), but I really am switching my vote for UberKrux to Dr. Strangelove. And that's my last vote switch. Thanks.

Oh why yes it does now that you've scrambled to dig yourself out of that particular hole...

Gnat Nuts isn't very nice...

Learn a new word? Evidently, since it has no relevance,
other than fitting you.

pedant
"one who makes a show of knowledge"

Boris Godunov · January 21, 2003, 11:34

Sloww has become a downright ornery buzzard, ain't he? A prickly pear. Sho nuff.

orange · January 21, 2003, 11:35

just to reemphasize a mistake or two, incase you missed them DC, you didn't count H Tower's votes correctly, and you added wrong with DinoDoc (he should have 10 more)

If he used it incorrectly then it evidently means he didn't learn it.

Now who's being a pedant?

Boris Godunov · January 21, 2003, 11:41

Actually, to be perfectle pedantic, Frogger was using the word "pedantic," which means:

pe·dan·tic ( P ) Pronunciation Key (p-dntk)
adj.
Characterized by a narrow, often ostentatious concern for book learning and formal rules: a pedantic attention to details.

It's not a positive thing. However, Frogger still didn't use it correctly, as Sloww is by no means book-learned or formal. He's just obnoxious.

You were saying, oh wise one?

Sloww, I was responding to orange. I would have made that clear, except my post appeared at the top of a new page, and I thus missed the fact that I'd xposted.

Hey! I do that all the time!

And with Ming, hence him being the one talking the most sense in this thread. Which must be a first.

KrazyHorse · January 21, 2003, 11:43

We both know that you have no knowledge to make a show of.

SlowwHand · January 21, 2003, 11:45

Excuse me while I go sob a while over Mobius, Frogger, and Boris being mean to me.

Boris Godunov · January 21, 2003, 11:50

Damn, once again, I've made a man cry. And this time without even touching him!

A rare event...

And I guess people weren't taking my STOP SPAMMING "request" very seriously...

Well... you should... because it is time to start restricting people if the spam continues.

SlowwHand · January 21, 2003, 12:01

Nope, not saying it.

MikeH · January 21, 2003, 12:01

Yeah! Stop spamming, serious issues to discuss in here.

Boris Godunov · January 21, 2003, 12:04

Can someone refuse their HoF election? Like George C. Scott refusing the Oscar? Will their wishes be respected?

TCO · January 21, 2003, 12:10

Why did he refuse the Oscar?

SlowwHand · January 21, 2003, 12:13

Don't leave out Marlon Brando.
