    Darn, that's my idea gone - back to the drawing board; where my latest victim is stapled...

    In the past a lot of threads were on roughly the same topic at the same time. I could point you to a few recent examples.

    Thread 186406
    Thread 186407
    Thread 186409

    I didn't see you complain then. It would have been more understandable even since the two later threads were evidently copycat threads from yours…
    You like to ...[text shortened]... on topic.

    I don't think that you will get the point. This will be the last I post on that topic.
    The only way to deal with him is to ignore him, eventually he'll get bored not getting replies and move on, he also seems to get a kick from the thumbs down which is rather odd. If everyone in the forum stopped replying to him and stopped thumbing down the posts it would be interesting to see how long he sticks around for.

    It might be worth considering a prose club to avoid the unwanted posts.

    Saxophonists stick to their own reeds so this could work. But what music would you need to play your intended victim to make them want to take up saxophone??

    Edit: What if after all that waiting they played it well so you didn't want them dead anymore? Methods that potentially make you reconsider should be promoted in my opinion. Is that still a murder mystery if they change their mind?

    Since this has become where we chat, I'd just like to say that in my view the 'competition' element of this is very much secondary to people writing for the pleasure and entertainment of others. The voting part adds some fun to it, but it's very subjective; the entry which I thought was the best last year got nowhere! So good luck to all, but it's not the winning.....

    It is indeed an annual curiosity why you clearly set out to sabotage the Prose competition.

    Very strange.

    And you clearly blow everything out of proportion as usual goad. It should get you the few thumbs up you're hungry for though! πŸ˜‰ πŸ˜›

    You can't seem to keep me on the GBaway script, providing you ever had me on it which is very doubtful as you're much too nosey to put anyone on it.....LOL.... πŸ˜› πŸ˜‰
