did funky penguin write that out?

tovalee

i gave up reading that after "fi abt si yb"

mad m

Ah cmon Gordon should be a rule for no backward writting,well the amount that Capt has put in anyway.Funky Penguin was a joy to try and read his stuff.Us lazy people wont bother even trying to read Capt'n midnights essay.

Well anyone was it good? ah feck it ill get a mirror tomorrow.Fairplay to you Capt'n Midnight for writing it.Is there a program where you can type something that long in and hey presto hit a button and its all backwards? Cut and paste does the rest.

tovalee

is capt midnight a contestant? i can't keep up anymore, as soon as someones eliminated, someone else gets added

mayordenis

If there is, I will swiftly remove my leg and kick myself withit.

Gordon

lol. I haven't decoded Capt Midnights message yet, will need a few slide rules and a calculator.

tba that essay brought a tear to my eye, half from laughter and half from joy, well done. As for the word count - my bad, I did not stipulate that the word count should include the message title or not. However I also made a booboo by including sacred words in the message title.

Therefore the additions to the rules:
All future essays must be 793 words and include the essay title. However you must decode the original essay title with sacred word consideration - as tba did.

Mr. Nice Guy if you have typed your essay already without the essay title I will allow it for this first essay. Any future essays however must contain the essay title without any sacred words (sorry!) and the essay text plus title should equal the holy number of words.

Gordon

Oh yeah, Capt. Midnight isn't a contestant! Maybe he's putting himself into the fray for being in Survivor II: Boards.ie.

Is it tbas essay...?

tba

correct

funky penguin

woohoo, what do I win?

Respect?

Steveire

Just for you funky, i threw together this amature program:
just put a '#' after the text and hit the button. I included an example too.

Gordon

I can't remember the rules I've set (I'd be the first knocked out in one of my challenges) but doesn't MNG have 1 hour 40 minutes left?

Raphael

He has until 8 o clock Irish time on Sunday. So....40 minutes left!

Mr.Nice Guy

fate dealt mr nice guy testing strenuous difficult path though;
hath fate deserted mr nice guy abandoning him for good;
mr nice guy began to wonder since time seemed up;
powerhousedan a worthy battler looked unshakeable looked secure for now;
fate hath abandoned myself mused mr nice guy sadly now;
however mr nice guy soon remembered men choose destiny always;
mr nice guy mustered cunning mustered courage never giving up;
mr nice guy roused boards members for action seeking unity;
people responded from afar roused by battle call knowing themselves;
knowing courage yet potential within mr nice guy supporting fully;

another battle raged requiring avoiding sacred words yet keeping cool;
some contestants fell yet mr nice guy remained brave still;
mr nice guy played game bravely yet correctly not cheating;
mr nice guy wrote properly staying true staying strong always;

MNG, you neglected to put a space after some of your semi colons.......

Sherifu

word count only gets 783........
oh oh mng

Hitchhiker's Guide to...

The word count is 793 - just checked it.

funky penguin

As far as I can see, it's the lack of spaces behind some of the semi colons thats causing the different word counts.

is this one or two words?
