Thanks for keeping the scene exciting while the winner was away taking a few days siesta. Ok, so now that I have returned, your problems are all solved. You can now celebrate the victory of the bug...

Hmmm, bug off! This is my prize.

Time to test the old smilies to see if they still work:

Dear kind friends,

I am seeking to win this thread and would most appreciate if you would kindly assist me in winning the prize. Kindly awaiting your non-response.

I thank you

Sorry just to clarify, you want a non-response?

Hmmm, let's try another smilie:

Darn it, they don't work anymore.

Hmm, if I post now, I should experience what it is like to be the winner of this thread for at least 8 hours...yay!

Or perhaps not W.... early morning upset tummy and hence online at this unearthly hour :-( and winning this thread :-)

PS: Cant we interpret it as a thread that has everyone as a winner and no last winner.... the thread of continuous winners where anyone gets to wear the hat as many times as they wish ? :-) Or would that just suck the fun out of it ;-)

Aww, poor bug, hope you're feeling better. :)

Ahh so its not just me who likes to punctuate the day with a bit of timewasting! :-)

so, where were we? :-)

Hi 404 welcome! we were celebrating my victory! I am offering a huge cyber hug to anyone who posts on this thread to congratulate me on winning this long contested, arduous battle that we warriors have so valiantly fought right till the end where I was the bravest one!

Congratulations once again Bug, and thanks for the cyber hug. It's the first one I've had in, erm, ages. Now stand behind me and assume second place on this thread while I bask in the glory. (up)

oh how very nice :-)

While you were all away, I decided to create a built-in toilet on the victory chair - just for convenience really.
Seeing as I have christened it already, I will completely understand if nobody wants to sit in it anymore.
So, I guess that makes me the winner then! :$

Oooh...wait a minute... oh no - I've got that funny feeling again - would you all mind giving me a bit of privacy on the victory chair? I've got some business to tend to. :-)
