No, I didn't take it badly.. I'm just full of crap and joke around alot. I agree they shouldn't, too young, but I did probably about 4 years older than that joking avatar (not smart, cost alot, but I was like dad!) I just happen to like tobacco, and it tastes great at times, like with cognac.

No rebel, no hero, just the same as always.

Nice to see you though, and see you have recovered quite nicely.

Indeed, always stay the same as you are Dischord. As for me its certainly been good for quite a while now and consequently my arbitrary number is chugging along nicely. :)

That is good to see, and in no small part probably because of the efforts of those that helped to keep the "unsavory" characters out.

Since a thread absolutely known, by those I trust, for attracting these sorts, I have decided to do as I've done today.

The difference now is that Ninjas will have to truly be Ninjas, and have no great hints along the line.

Edit to add: A centralized brokerage of codes invites trouble; sad but such is life.

Yes definitely, certain measures by community members like Momo with her MAHAYO (Make A Human Answer YOu) initiative as well as Sachys and foxworks with the weekly TBBBBoB have done their part in keeping out lurkers/trolls by spreading out the codes.

Unfortunately once a thread becomes known to be a depository of codes then it is bound to attract all sorts like you said, but for now a ninja drop once in a while seems to be alright especially the way you sometimes post it in an unrelated thread which is sort of like a finder's keepers game. :)

I'd love to see wpegg's thread back, as it was, but I'm afraid it has gone the way of chivalry and honor. Concepts that many people know of, but seldom practice.

Time for a drink and a smoke before I get all nostalgic :-)

Edit for clarification

Sad but true, it was good to see you as always Dischord. Enjoy your drink and smoke, I certainly don't think that your avatar promotes smoking for toddlers. :)

I've never had either of those, but would be glad to try if the smokes aren't of the fsc paper variety.

I make my own now, as the "land of the free" forced some chemical laden paper upon us, as if they weren't bad enough!

dont know, not a constant pro smoker, just smoke 2-3 times in the year

That sounds like my mother, God rest her soul.

The only times she would smoke is if she was fighting with my father, not often, and trying to aggravate him :-)

Do you mean as it was (meant) when he started it?

Yes, and great to see you, live, for a change!

Timezones, my friend, timezones! :-)

That thread started out as brilliantly, but then again wpegg always has brilliant ideas for GAs, and it was indeed disappointing and sad that it degenerated to the point it wasn't recognisable anymore. In many ways, other generous members here follow into his footsteps and keep that idea alive with their themed GAs.


Nice to converse live with you too, I'd join you for a drink, but since I'm not allowed any alcohol for another ten days, why don't have you a glass for me too? :D

You've twisted my arm, a drink on behalf of other things we've spoken of lately. My best, clue, and otherwise.

Edit to clarify Mt does not mean the same as the intended "My." Typo, MT is a beautiful state though.. Freudian slip?
