Well today couldn't get any more confus-ing for me if it tried, so I figured I'd spread that particular brand of joy :rolleyes: .... :devil:
So a little game - Who is the least competetive ?
Trying to win at this will make you lose. Trying to lose makes you win which makes you lose. Not trying at all makes you lose which makes you win which makes you lose.
Confus-ing huh ? :thumbs2:
Now I'm confus-ed. Is there supposed to be a shortcut in your post???
i quit :D
I'll be at the pub - let me know if I win, errr . . lose, errr . . . whatever :rolleyes:
The whole (or hole?) point would seem to be that you lose. Competitiveness, or lack thereof, would seem to have no bearing on the outcome of any endevour under the rules as outlined here. Failure is predetermined.
Get a blanket, make your self a mug of Bovril, and re-read "Jude the Obscure" to cheer yourself up. Tomorrow will be a better day. :thumbs:

Oh, who cares. Thag! Wall of ice look closer today?
OK, being at UNI I understand the winner is the loser paradigm, but we must have mission statement encompassing the vision and scope of this thread. For example, a valid loser statement would be "I have signed autographs of every doorman from every Star Trek convention". To leverage this statement as a losing (and therefore winning statement) a scope must be defined which specifies that mentioning Star Trek Conventions within the post is a valid winning subject area.
Thanks to Uni, I am now well versed in documenting projects of this sort using both graphical and textual representations. I am able to use the latest methodologies to acquire the user needs and justify the business case for such a project.
I estimate (using the latest UML based evolutionary spiral RAD/JAD object oriented approach) that this thread will be ready for general use by 2010. RC1 and RFC's can be available as early as next week. Where do I send the bill for the first 2000 manhours?
I think all you have to do is click on the link above that Confus-ed posted and if the link doesn't work, you find any link really and see if you can work out what it's all about then keep clicking on the back button and see if you can get back to Windrivers, to see if anyone else has worked out what this is all about !Quote:

I give up.No I don't.Yes I do.No I don't.Yes I do.No I don't.Yes I do.This shall be continued to infinity that way you can't win or lose. Just die mentally mangled.
Errr ummm there was never meant to be a link ! :p
If I mentioned that this week that I have a job working for the Civil Service, UK folks will probably at least get it ...
