Edit: Shit, I have put us in a loop. I wish I'd now looked at the post to which you responded but, in essence, that would go against the stream of conscious that is the zeitgeist of this thread.

Oh cool, is it actually confirmed now that Dale's going on the show? Didn't seem like he wanted to last time I spoke to him about it. Yeah James is bull-shitting. He made it fairly clear to me, last time we played, that he didn't think his numbers game was strong enough yet. Though having played hi...

That is the hypocrisy. Look at the way you responded to me on there yesterday, compared to how you talk to me on here (when I'm behaving identically in both places)? How do you explain that difference, if it's not your feeling of power over there? Bloody hell - a new hoop to jump through. Fuck it J...

Maybe you haven't understood the question David.

Of course I have you fucking idiot. I am saying in a polite way that he isn'...

David O'Donnell

Is Dale Levell better now than when Chris/Craig/Kirk etc were when they went on? He is near that levell. Kirk has always been good, so it's no accident that he's the only player to hit a perfect game. Craig was always good too. Chris became good and he is the only person for whom, I think, your que...

From what I've got from people talking on Apterous, we've possibly got Scott Gillies, but he's actually busy recording at the moment, but I believe he can't win enough to be in the Series 62 finals, so assuming he wins all his games, he'd carry over into Series 63. No guarantee obviously. Jonathan ...

I've won no trophies ever, for anything. And I'm cool with that. I'm mediocre as fuck. Even if I did win a trophy I don't know what I'd do with it. If it had anything valuable in it I'd sell it, so I probably shouldn't have such things anyway. Fuck off. There's nothing mediocre about Jim Bentley - ...

I voted no. Julie Taylor is a nice lady who I feel was being goaded by others to make a big deal of the "Name My Child" affair. Having met her I can say that both Jono and I (hope I am not speaking out of turn, Jono) found her thoroughly pleasant.

Cool Jon. Was just surprised that anyone could be "open-mouthed" at Julie's comment as I thought it was pretty tame. Ah - I think what you might be misinterpreting is being "open-mouthed" in a "pot/kettle" sense, rather than "OMG she is being mean". Yeah yeah...
