    I am long out of the game...Im back to my normal spellings.....no apostrophes....shortened semi slang words abound...

    So...this means we cant kill coma for the 'ya'? :(

    he's gonna be a tough kill...

    R2K, why would you want to kill me? :(

    :D

    Edit: My bad. I guess the decision has to be made about 'ya' actually being slang.

    I just felt the need to get a kill since people have been pumping bullets into my bullet-riddled body for days now...:p

    wow, what a devastating elimination. i thought about that both ways for a bit and then decided it had to be spelled that way and that "deva" was wrong (almost looked it up but that wouldn't have been in good faith). dammit all to hell.

    as a pride booster, i must mention that i did win two spelling bees in middle school. so...uhhh...HA!

















    dammit:(

    There are some people that are about to fall on their sword...

    These people need to change their signature in accordance with the rules of the game:

    Here is the list in alphabetical order:

    Endor120 - no sig
    Gene Peterson - no sig
    Iron McFist - no sig
    Kam - no sig
    Palmray - no sig
    Rasmon - no sig
    Rocket's R' Us - no sig
    rrj_gamz - no sig
    Sir jackie Chiles - no sig


    To keep it fair we need to agree on a rule that not changing your signature by a certain time or day (like 5 p.m. CST Today 04/02/04) equals an instant suicide. It is too difficult to keep looking at a list as you find spelling errors to see if someone is playing or not.

    All participants must add the following to their signature (preferrably in bold):

    How is my spelling?

    All kills should be posted in this thread (please, no hijacking of other threads).

    Once killed, you must add the following to your signature:

    I am a really bad speller or some witty derivation.

    Wow, this sucks Mulder. You're trying to get everyone to play right and it costs you your place in the game. Ouch

    I believe, actually I know for certain, it's spelled preferably. I'm surprised no one noticed it being that it's in the spelling thread itself.

    Kill #2 for me

    Nice try. That is a quote from codell describing the rules of the game.

    It is pretty obvious that I was restating the rules as written by the one setting up the game:

    There have been others that are OBVIOUSLY quoting newspaper articles but they were not inside the quotes box that I ignored. In fact I made light of it in an earlier post, stating that was killing the author of the article and not the poster.

    Hey RM,

    I'll have to dig back in this thread, but I thought you were dead.

    Edit: Yes, Page six. HOOP-T killed you.
