The fictional work you refer to will not be written until the 1950s.Hoppster wrote:I doth protest at the lack of intent expressed by my fellow Gentlemen to rid our most excellent gathering of the treacherous Twistedspoon (whom I have most rightly and correctly outed as the most evil henchman Oddjob).
Sir Twistedspoon's obvious error in the spelling of the French phrase "tuit de suite" amuses me.- imaginality

My dear Caboose, you seem befuddled. What gives you the idea we are living in the past? Is it not the year 2011? It seems you assume gentlemanly manners and social graces are anachronisms consigned to exist only in bygone eras. Not so! I can assure you that there are at least some men of good breeding and exemplary etiquette even in this modern age.
I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you did not mean to suggest that your current mode of interaction is merely an unnatural act, a pretense at being a gentleman? For I can see only one conclusion to draw from that.- imaginality

I had figured that our setting was the present day, the two thousand eleventh year of our Lord. Have you manipulated the passage of time so it would go in reverse?Caboose wrote:

What amuses me is that you made an orthographic error yourself. Having taken classes in the French language, I should know that it should be written "tout de suite".Caboose wrote:Sir Twistedspoon's obvious error in the spelling of the French phrase "tuit de suite" amuses me.- kr0b

What-ho my friends!
I am afraid the hour is late and thus with this being my greeting, I must also bid you adieu. One has quaffed many an ale and thus it appears to be time for one to take slumber. I sincerely wish I could engage you all in many tales of merriness or woe, however peaceful slumber awaits and I would very much hate to keep it waiting.
Cheerio, friends. I shall engage you in the morning, whence one's head has stopped spinning.flying the flag for Dorset on MS.... probably- TheLonging

Why yes, he does many of the unpleasant "activities" you so mention but in addition to that, he has a nasty habit of claiming roles at the most improper times and acting like a much lower class savage, being the town idiot and what not. A game I have played with him with Mr. Flay as the overseer was very much so proof of this.imaginality wrote:TheLonging, I am unfamiliar with the fellow you propose to policy lynch.

It would not be wise to simply ignore this mischievous fellow. T'was not last week that Hoppster and I accompanied each other in a murderous rampage so I shall be definitely keeping my keen eye on how his play develops. However, a smart fellow will mix up his play when needed... Is Hoppster a smart fellow?flying the flag for Dorset on MS.... probably-

The ordered pair (x, y) where x = 'Is Hoppster a smart fellow?' and y = 'Is the Sun Cold?' is (YesTwistedspoon wrote:
Is the Sun cold?kr0b wrote:Is Hoppster a smart fellow?, No[A]).
Source A: I consulted my mirror and have indeed concluded (admittedly from a subjective stance) that I do look exceedingly smart and most fashionable in my tuxedo.
Source B: After consulting my most learned colleague I have concluded that, accurately speaking (and of course we wouldn't want to speak inaccurately where possible), that the Sun is neither hot nor cold in its steady state since it is plasma and its radiations are neither cold nor hot. The sun obviously would destroy a satellite that gets too close to its surface not because of the heat but because of the high radiation of waves (gamma, alpha, cosmic, ultraviolet, visible, IR rays, etc. ). A person should not put his/her hand in a plasma of gases not because it may burn but because the high radiation may destroy his/her hand. The interaction between the morphogenetic fields of the Earth and of any celestial body and also of the matter of animate and inanimate beings (that it is also formed by morphogenetic fields) and the solar radiations is responsible for the heat.
I am foreseeing that perhaps we will struggle to move our banter on from such pointless matters.
As such, I shall UNVOTE: Twistedspoon (for we can deal with this pressing matter at a later time)
and I shall VOTE: vezokpiraka.
Further reading: Click|Click|Click|Click. (THEY'RE ALL SO MAD AT VEZOK!)
I declare this wagon to be superior to any of the existing wagons and our fastest ticket out of this stage of voting which would appear to be largely random nonsense.
kr0b, I most graciously invite you to join TheLonging's most excellent wagon on vezokpiraka.Benmage: First, for the sake of irony. I'm going to illustrate how completely idiotic and hypocritical scumhunter is.-

My ridiculously close-minded acquaintance, do you mean this?Wikipedia article: Sun wrote:The Sun's hot corona continuously expands in space creating the solar wind, a stream of charged particles that extends to the heliopause at roughly 100 astronomical units.
I would heartily recommend reading this:
Corona ≠ Sun.Wikipedia article: Corona wrote:A corona is a type of plasma "atmosphere" of the Sun or other celestial body, extending millions of kilometers into space, most easily seen during a total solar eclipse, but also observable in a coronagraph.

The reading material you gentleman have seen fit to share with us certainly elucidates the potential agonies we may all suffer if we allow vezokpiraka to remain part of our gathering.
Unvote; vote: vezokpiraka
Is Twistedspoon villainous in your eyes, Hoppster, for his preference for discussing celestial matters and other such frippery rather than actively scumhunting? If so, I would caution that the hour is still early and others amongst us (e.g. StrangerCoug) have been no more committed to genuinely scumhunting as yet. Or is there another reason for suspicion to be cast on Twistedspoon in particular?-

Yet your random vote must be eclectic inherently since I perceive your vote as a (how do you say this) omgoose? and there is no evidence beyond an eclectic vote
