I DESPISE this style, and I think that anyone who uses it should just get out of the game (ie, Nilp, Elu, Gil-galad, etc). Time constraints are one thing, but this is just rediculous. If you have so little time, don't sign up. It isn't fair, it isn't fun, and it isn't "funny." I wasn't joking when I said I advocate banning you from the game. If you aren't going to play, then you shouldn't be allowed to waste space in the thread. [/rant]

This is another thing, alas, that you and
Nogrod have in common-you are both swift to judge other people's styles. You've never played with
Nilp before. You experienced one day in which he was apparently fairly occupied. Pause before you launch into Demosthenes mode, old girl. People have their different ways of doing things, people have lives, etc etc.
Nilp is one of the wittier Downers I know, dead duck or not, and I stand by that. There is also a major difference between
Nilp and
Gil or Wayne. Not that they should be banned either. Banning is always a restriction. When you're restricting things in something meant to be entertaining, you can slip through the net into the ocean of pettiness.

Also, I did intentionally use your phrase, "grasping at straws," as a means of show your own hypocracy.

And you're misusing the word "hypocrisy". It's not spelt "hypocracy", italicised or not. Now I now how
Kath feels in her Grammar-Termagant role...
If "hypocracy" existed, it would be something, I suppose, to do with the state of transcending ruling.
((The one I really love is
hippocracy-rule by horses. Our school's supposedly most intellectual magazine-a rival of the one I help edit-once ran a vast headline of "American Hippocracy In Iraq". I saw visions of the US army forcing the helpless Iraqi citizenry to elect horses as consuls in the manner of Caligula...))
Where you are sensible is suggesting we glance as
Glirdan-the struggles of the colossi shouldn't let the shrimps shelter...
