No. But giving me a muffin would increase your chances of winning. 🙄
Besides, any muffin I send will be stale before reaching Norway. They do have really good muffins at the bagel bakery down the street. I especially like the pistachio, and well as the cranberry/orange ones.
Now I'm hungry as I had meetings all through lunchtime today and didn't get to eat ... 🙁

[bArk, have you calmed down?[/b]
BTW, I just realised something. If this thread ever dies (knock on wood), how will we be able to brag of our victory? If the thread dies, that means everyone but the last poster has forgotten about it. However, I believe that last poster (aka me) should be able to trumpet their victory. If they do it in this thread, it'll bring it back to the surface, in which case someone will surely post in it, and spoil the victory's perfection. And if the winner creates another thread, someone will surely dig it up for the same purpose. It is to circumvent these problems that I propose a 48 hour dying period. If the thread is not posted in for 48 hours, it's considered dead, and the last poster wins regardless of the posts that follow after. And this can easily be proven by looking at the elapsed time between posts.
Arf, Arph.

Good idea. Maybe the winner (aka me) could ask Phlabibibibibibibibibibibibibibibibibibibit to lock the dead thread before starting a victory thread.
Orff Orff.

Perhaps this thread is simply a reminder that not everything people battle for can be possessed. It's an analogy for the tenuous nature of possession and conquest.
Perhaps winning, in this case, cannot, by definition, be a public celebration. Perhaps the ultimate thread killer (aka RookRAK) will simply have to savor the private knowledge that they are the winner. Aware that calling attention to their victory completely obliterates it ... knowing that closing their hand around the captured butterfly destroys the butterfly ... ...
Awwww ... what am I babbling about. Let's just go with the time limit!
