Now I have to say this is one of the most interesting posts I have read on this thread to date.
I will admit to having a little difficulty reading it as it consisted of more than two words but it was obviously written deliberately to confuse people for that reason.
Whilst I find it interesting I also note the errors in it namely the phrase "wins" along with "defeat"
Now let me explain once again and I write this slowly as I know Mike is not a fast reader.
According to the simple rule of this thread to win you have to be the last person to post.
This surely means that to be the last person there must be no other persons following you with another post.
As all Mikes posts have been followed by other posts then I fail to see how he can claim a "WIN".
Yes, I see he can claim a win as a temporary position but surely that should be "I am winning" not I win,
I have explained this so many times but as Mike lives in the frozen north he obviously can be excused.
Now let me explain the second error "Defeat".
I fail to see where this applies to the thread so will explain to Mike where to find them.
Mike my dear friend, de feat are those things at the bottom of your leg just below the ankle and used for walking on. They are easily identified as they have five digits on each one. In your case possibly less as frostbite can be a nasty thing.
I hope you find this post both informative and helpful.
