RE: Week 46 - Challenger (€30k+H) - Jersey, CI


Indeed johnnylad. One thinks it is most appalling and irritating.

Some people come on here to give their two bobsworth and just get the mick taken out of them for misspelling a word or poor grammar, and whilst I must say things like "dat was wikd init and dat. al da way to do titil init, wikdzz da bomb etc." are extremely irritating and people who type like this should be tied up in a dark room for a few months, making a big thing out of a spelling error or poor syntax or making a joke you don't like is just so pathetic it makes you wonder who the real intellectual children are.

After 28 (!) people have voted, it looks like the poll on K & the P was inconclusive - amusing-ish at the time but most of us won't be using it again might be a good summary.

The voting on the other issue is much clearer - remembering that the %s for each group of five options sum to 50 so you need to double the %s to get the true picture, over 70% of us seem to have enjoyed Masta K's visit on Wednesday.

Full marks to him for taking the trouble to use one of those dodgy translation sites in an attempt to communicate (and for persevering for so long in the face of overwhelming odds), but as well as the translation site coming up with funny stuff as usual, you do have to wonder exactly what he was putting into it in the first place for some of that stuff to come out - he's a bit of a poet maybe, but not an entirely innocent one, I don't think. smile.gif (either that or he's not Russian at all, just the most imaginative troll we've had on here yet smile.gif )

Oh and lest we forget, it's worth mentioning again that Yoshi reached the QFs in singles here and Ken & the P won yet another doubles title. smile.gif

So maybe johnnylad would care to explain why a reference to Simon & Garfunkel can be regarded as "intellectual bullying" & "classist snobbery" (as he so charmingly puts it)? confuse.gifangered.gif

Am I allowed to comment on a thread in general or do I have to "quote" the posts I am referring to?

Simon and Garfunkel are the only good words that have come out of your keyboard in a long time. wink.gif

I'm not trying to start another fight, but I think you have to accept that sniping at spelling, syntax and other peoples jokes in the way you do makes them feel the same as the banter between other people and Masta K made you feel.

Speck - Plank.

For the record I'm happy with Flembo! cry.gif

Colin will have 67 extra points on his ranking tommorow while Ken will have 49 extra points. So that puts Ken up to about 227 while Colin will at about 427.

My feeling on the Masta K situation was one of deep suspicion. It may have been genuine, in which case patience with him should have been used, but I strongly suspected it was just a troll. I'm sure Ukrainian tennis followers have heard of MTF and I would have thought the Challenger thread on there was the place to go for information - but I checked, and there was no sign of him there.

Christmas is coming up - let's stop sniping at each other and have a bit of Peace on Earth on the board!

Yes, quite a rise for Colin smile.gif

Not sure why the singles rankings haven't been updated yet when they've had the doubles rankings up for hours ... perhaps Nole has demanded a recount. LOL
