Funny that you mention that. My IBM thinkpad for law school arrives (hopefully) this afternoon. But the Mavs stuff, Never! Cry the Beloved Team. Rockets. FREEEEEEEEEEDOMMMMM!!!!
So we have controversy now ........... Apparently, VesceySux is claiming he is the champion, and therefore, that my kill didn't count. I've yet to see where any discussion took place where said championship was yielded to Mr. Sux. So, my vote is, that he is eliminated and that the game goes on. Anyone else want to vote on this?
Oh he's dead. Declaring yourself the winner doesn't make it true. For reference see Leonardo DiCaprio's character Jack in Titanic. Although he said he was the King of the World, alas it was not the case... Game goes on until we have crowned a winner...
Are kills retroactive? Everyone assumed VS was the winner, and people stopped scrutinizing the posts of the remaining contestants for months. Someone with a lot of time on their hands and no life could go back and scour these people's old posts.
I've been watching with some interest. The hardest target sems to be Isabel... Watching.... Waiting... Some day soon...
Out of your list, codell, the following "players" have the required "How's my spelling?" tag in their signature (I just did the research): B That's right. JUST ONE. That means EVERYONE else is disqualified right there. As for me, I had the tag right up to the moment I changed it to reflect my "champion" status. (It was buried underneath all those anti-JVG quotes.) As for B, he's made exactly 23 posts since January 1, 2005 (again with the research). That's 23 posts in 195 days. Or roughly .12 posts per day. Not exactly worthy of the title, eh? Face it. I won. Game over. Learn from your experience and dethrone the king next time. FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS!
Not to be a jerk about it (and i shouldn't really care since I know I didn't win) but how, by that logic did you win? Fine, as per the rules set up at the beginning of the contest, game over B wins. BTW, Shall we play again?
Actually... yes. What can I say. I stand corrected. Thank You. Unless codell somehow objects, and as per the rules regarding the signature and spirit of the rule regarding number of posts per week, as the second umpire in this thread, as per the rules set up at the beginning of the game, I would vote that you, VesceySux, are indeed the ClutchFans Spelling Survivor Champion. I will defer to the thread starter to make it official.
You will never be the Inaugural Spelling Survivor Contest Champion. Although I fear the "Anti-SJC backlash" from it .
well, maybe they took the tag out of their signature when they noticed you just stole the crown outright without any rhyme or reason! how did you come about just stealing the crown?
drapg, I got pissed off after creating this thread. I guess I "out-cared" the other people in the game.
Damn, very well done. If you're that detail oriented in everything you do, school in Austin will be a breeze!
