    It IS the perfect posting contest. That's why you are not even in it.

    Why can't the honor system decide typos. I don't get it.

    The perfect posting contest would require grammar (split infinitives, ending phrase with preposition, incomplete sentences, wrong tense, etc) and punctuation (wrong use of semicolon, colon, comma, etc.) Like that would be a great success around here.

    If you don't spell the intended word correctly, you can be killed. If your typo produced another word, you can be killed if you accept it. What is so hard with excepting that the accused gets to decide on what word they intended to spell, based on their individual honor?

    I'd die for spelling "excepting" right there, instead of "accepting," wouldn't you???

    <font size="1">Those words translated from the text of Zora Neale Hurston. Talk about slow reading novels. Is it ironic or intended by Hurston that Ebonics dialogue slows down your reading. ;)</font>

    I wish I'd never brought it back up. I mean, I accepted my own kill, right? I was just trying to be someone's conscience. :)

    GB,

    Yeah, we should all get back to making vj23k feel dishonorable. I know he's #1 on my target list right now for his lame excuse. ;)

    Is Another Brother still alive? If so:

    He misspelled "pubes" as "pubs".

    I got DallasThomas

    " I was convicted of 3 second degree Buglaries of a Habitation and one fourth degree (state jail felony) Credit Card Abuse. I deserved that drama back when I was in prison, but I don't deserve this crap today; that's the only reason why this stuff sucks more."

    it's not buglaries.

    Haven't posted in a few days. Sorry if I'm not keeping up my end of the game. Just haven't had anything to say. Figure I got my first kill, though.

    HP: I didn't even make your final three?

    My bad, then. Kill me if you want. I don't know all the rules. I scanned for the kill and didn't see it, and he hadn't changed his signature so I figured it hadn't been posted. Have mercy on me though and I'll be there in the end, if only to prove heypartner wrong.

    I was joking.

    Damn, this is the second time in a row I had to add that. Guess my sense of humor REALLY sucks...wonder if that has anything to do with being German :D.

    I knew you were, man. I just don't use smilies. Just went back and found the original kill. Apologies again. Someone should let finalsbound know he's not finals bound.

    I think that we are being far too liberal with what is considered a "spelling" error, and what is not.

    Regardless of the omitted bracket, there are no misspelled words in my post. Nor are there any in GBrocksfan's post.

    I will stay in the game despite my "lame" excuse for an "obvious" typo.

    GB, I would bow out, but I am too determined now.

    :)
