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~~

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)

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.

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...

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.

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...

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)

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

peˇdanˇtic ( 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.

All the mouths are on duty today, it appears.
Main Entry: pedˇant
Pronunciation: 'pe-d&nt
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle French, from Italian pedante
Date: 1588
1 obsolete : a male schoolteacher
2 a : one who makes a show of knowledge b : one who is unimaginative or who unduly emphasizes minutiae in the presentation or use of knowledge c : a formalist or precisionist in teaching




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.

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.

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