No **goo** - the post that you linked to is **Spiritus** giving a masterclass in debating. **Satan’s** thread is at the top of the page.

ps - I like the idea of the scoring system. And **tevya** - you may have lost that particular round, but we all _learned something along the way_. I like to think that makes us _all_ winners 😉

My question, then, is WHY? Are my topics boring? Are my posts so full of wisdom (or some other substance) that nobody feels the need to continue discussion? Your ideas are welcome – I just hope this doesn’t mutate into a Great Debate, my ego could never stand the strain.

Just was thinking the same thing. Thought if this is not some for of initiation, I’ll leave and go on lurking. If it is initiation _bending over to expose bum_…Whose first at the five of the best?

I thought this was frowned on by the mods.

It sure is fun though!

Why would it be frowned upon? It’s not like you’re tying up the search engine or anything.

I liked that post on purpose. 🙂 I wasn’t sure if it was the same thing or not. If you know how to do one, you know how to do the other.

I don’t really see what is wrong with either, but that is just me. I am not a Great and Powerful Mod.
