Re: Spoilers For Friday September 25th 2009
Yeah kinda. I really just reordered the words in Damian's post, which was already the answer to the your question. I was trying to be amusing but I think that frog has been categorically dissected now.Alec Rivers wrote:Does that mean "What does everyone else think?" was sarcasm? Sorry I didn't get it.

Re: Spoilers For Friday September 25th 2009
I only caught your final game (because work has been overwhelming at the mo), Jeffrey, but I must admit the manner in which you conducted yourself was A1. You came across really well, looked like you were enjoying yourself and all while becoming an octochamp at the same time - great achievement!
I am really looking forward to these finals!
I think Damian was slightly taking the Michael when he posted about your total score etc. I thought he was lampooning the type of pissy posts we tend to get on this forum rather than having a genuine dig at you.

Re: Spoilers For Friday September 25th 2009
I know he was, when discussing the whole BEREAVING/BEAVERING incident I brought the matter up that the extra 10 points would be enough to lift me from 2nd worst to 3rd worst of all time as a joke, which he then told me to forget about, as further reflected below.David O'Donnell wrote:I think Damian was slightly taking the Michael when he posted about your total score etc. I thought he was lampooning the type of pissy posts we tend to get on this forum rather than having a genuine dig at you.

Re: Spoilers For Friday September 25th 2009
Ah, my mistake. Thought you were responding to Damian's post but it was actually James Robinson's.
Re: Spoilers For Friday September 25th 2009
I'm sure you've heard this a million times before, but you look like Tim Cahill.
I have nothing of note to add, though. Sorry.

For Damian's benefit, my rider also includes turquoise Smarties (not blue!), two bottles of sealed yet diluted Ribena, a llama, a first-edition copy of 'Keepy Guppy- The Steve Guppy Story', exactly 8192 pieces of A5 paper, for all production team to be wearing all the clothes that Rachel has worn this series (that includes you Damian, and I want you in the pink dress from Monday) and Dean Gaffney.Sue Sanders wrote:Please refer to him by his stage name, 'Mr Showbiz' - it's in his rider.

Hmmm, as bereave (verb) is all that is specified, surely the plural would have to be bereaveing? It looks stupid though.

Re: Spoilers For Friday September 25th 2009
The intro says that standard formations (e.g. from dropping trailing e's) are not given, presumably for space reasons. Also bereaving is a participle, not a plural.Kai Laddiman wrote:Hmmm, as bereave (verb) is all that is specified, surely the plural would have to be bereaveing? It looks stupid though.

As Damian is normally the puppeteer who controls everything that ends up getting discussed on this forum, is this some kind of rôle reversal fantasy?

Saying that, it always made me laugh whenever Susie or Jeff started talking to Damian through the earpiece, as you couldn't see him but you could hear him speaking, like God or the Banker from DOND.Derek Hazell wrote:As Damian is normally the puppeteer who controls everything that ends up getting discussed on this forum, is this some kind of rôle reversal fantasy?
Does this also mean my request for Dean Gaffney has been flatly refused? He doesn't need much, just a packet of Hula Hoops and a unicycle to get home to London on.
