I'll be minded to accept the challenge.......once I know what it is??

Don't play dumb.

Talk to me like I'm a five year old........what's the challenge?

Did you read the thread?

MANO A MANO

Don't they speak Spanish in Scotland?

It is very clear.

A ONE on ONE poll, just TWO names, you and I, done by your special friend thesmoker, you against me (where I CREAM you), head to head, no dillution, no funny games with polls where you can vote for two people in two separate groups for the same contest ...

Look if this is too much of a threat for you, just say no.

Awww???.......I thought it was a real challenge. So all your wanting is a head to head poll?

I was hoping for a day of searing witticisms, a day of the best that JT can muster, against theblethers writing style. You know, something that would challenge the brain, and possibly add something to the forum. I think that would be entertaining......your thoughts?

Not interested in that. I'm not interested in you really or your so called witticisms. Is that a requirement here, to be amused by your endless bletherings? Your posting style has always left me totally cold. Just viewing your baby avatar makes me want to retch. Blether is the perfect word for it, so much personal juvenile gossip centered around an in group CLIQUE of people. I know you have lots of fans, no accounting for taste. I proposed the one on one poll. Pretty much everyone else got that but you act like you didn't. Yes or no will do.

If my comment here seems too "hot" consider it like a Gore Vidal vs. Norman Mailer thing ... MILD in comparison.

AGAIN, I am saying, I will CREAM you in a ONE on ONE (MANO A MANO) poll. If you decline, we'll never know.

So it's the lesser of two evils poll?

The quietness is deafening at once.

Go ahead Jingthing......set it up......it doesn't matter who polls the most, we both lose. However it's obviously important to you so carry on.

I'll take that as an official confirmation. Wait to see what Smoky says about wanting to do the new one on one poll or not.

Should the MANO A MANO wait until the final voting for this current poll?

Edited December 12, 201213 yr by Jingthing

So I take it that you both are ejected from the general poll, and I get your votes ?

Up to you.......I'm going out to meet my sister right now, I'm going to A Carol Concert at Glasgow Cathedral.

I think it's only fair and polite to wait until Smokies poll finishes but if you don't agree with that then fine, carry on.

We can wait until your victory in this current poll is officially set in concrete. If Smoky doesn't want to do the mano poll, I might do it, but a third party would be better I think.

I don't know this pair of jokers, but one of the egos sounds very bruised.... crying out for love and affection, desperate, it would seem for some sort of recognition from posters in an anonymous forum........<deleted>????

You know what JT........that was some edit you made to this post. It was relatively tame the first time around but you've just edited it into an out and out personal attack. It looks like your slipping back into your bullying and harassing self.

You've taken this good humoured and well intended topic and turned it into the Jingthing show. Any joy or amusement from this topic has now gone, thanks for that.

I'm away out to spend some quality time with my sister, you can do as you please.

Ok, enough. There will be no second poll. A lot of people have participated in the nominations and the current poll. Whatever the result, please respect their decisions. We aren't going to flood the forum with a bunch of second guess polls.

I voted for the one who spat his dummy

OK, sigh, that's settled. No mano a mano and no further discussion of mano a mano. There she wrote. End of story. Happy trails.

So in this here poll, we've got the top TWO (you know who I'm talkin' about) in the leader board. Nobody anywhere near a plurality or majority of voters.

The beauty is there is still time to smell the coffee (hint: Delete My Vote button at the bottom of the poll area) and impact on who is the WINNER of the race!

On the campaign front, unlike the competition, I don't speak to my sister, don't celebrate Christmas, think Christmas Carols are for sentimental suckers, and I'm an atheist! Fishing there for the dysfunctional family / anti-religionist demographic. Surely you're out there?

But, really, I DO like PUPPIES.

Methinks he begs too much. What a desperate pleader.... Brodie was right, IMO. Does approbation from a bunch of anonymous people matter so much? In fact does it matter at all? Go pick your toys up, there's a good wee fellow.

Try hard to relax and enjoy what little fun there is remaining in this thread (apart from watching your tantrums!)

The Delete My Vote function is democracy's friend!

I hereby release ALL my (rapidly vanishing) votes and strongly encourage EVERYONE to vote for VILLAGEFARANG.

Wouldn't it be fun to see an UNDERDOG take the prize?

There's still plenty of time ...

Desperation in a politician is a poor mandate for popularity, no matter how much they amuse me.

Indeed. But VILLAGEFARANG is clearly the man of the moment. Aren't y'all tired of elections where "the man" everyone thought would win even before it began ... wins?

Power to the people. Right on. Shake up the joint. Don't let "the man" hold you down (unless he's a very cute man of course).

I hope you see. It's not about me. It's about DEMOCRACK-SEE. (That rhymes.)

Could be, but there would need to be a quick CONSENSUS behind an underdog choice, and quick, for any underdog to prevail. VILLAGEFARANG seemed better positioned to have a shot, even though it is a slim shot.

I also have it on dubious authority that VILLAGEFARANG also likes puppies!

These poll elections are actually at least potentially more fun and dynamic than real elections because you can change your vote up until the last minute.

I liked the change of direction with the puppies. I think he was saving that for the last minute.

Not helped him in the polling though!

I rarely even read the Blether's blether but I'm voting for him just to help make sure JT doesn't win.

I must withdraw my support for Jingthing. He is running the dirtiest, sleaziest, most dishonest campaign since Obama. I am switching my vote to theblether.
