124. I am, thanks. And I'll be around. Made a hasty, mistaken call.

Didn't mean to protect you. Rather meant to protect myself. LOL, a knee jerk response. Could have simply logged out. That would have been the better call.

I got it pretty quickly, though, which is a good thing. And, there were no major injuries as far as I can see.



Repent you sinners! Repent now! hrmjustin Dec 2014 #1
Best response was "the devil made me do it" Renew Deal Dec 2014 #2

I think it is time for the no host discussion again. Goblinmonger Dec 2014 #15
I agree. This is not the first time this discussion has been warranted Heddi Dec 2014 #16
Just keep Renew Deal. No other hosts. cleanhippie Dec 2014 #17
No new hosts. Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #18

It would save this type of problem. EvilAL Dec 2014 #20
In disgrace? Really? Are you kidding? NYC_SKP Dec 2014 #21
Yes, in disgrace. trotsky Dec 2014 #22
In disgrace or in cluelessness. Take your pick. Goblinmonger Dec 2014 #24
"I apologize for the mistaken locking" Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #28
The difference between disgrace and simply retiring from the drama is not a subtle one. NYC_SKP Dec 2014 #72
Ah it is only disgrace if the person "feels disgraced". Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #115
The disgrace here does not lie with pinto. rug Dec 2014 #75
Hmm Goblinmonger Dec 2014 #78
Wrong is not disgrace. rug Dec 2014 #80
Indeed it does not. okasha Dec 2014 #103

Somebody want to clarify this inconsistency, please. Goblinmonger Dec 2014 #25
It looks like you figured it out Renew Deal Dec 2014 #30
Keeping five hosts is my vote i think it works. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #26
I am pretty much in the dark about this, but glad the hosts worked it out. cbayer Dec 2014 #27
Really? "Pretty much in the dark about this"? Goblinmonger Dec 2014 #36
She had many of those people on ignore. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #40
Doesn't mean it isn't clear why pinto did what he did. Goblinmonger Dec 2014 #45
She might not have been on. i don't know. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #46
She apologized for something she knew nothing about? Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #91
Yes, really, goblin monger. But thanks for the run down. cbayer Dec 2014 #50
OMG, you WERE the ugly in that thread. PassingFair Dec 2014 #140
I'd like to throw my hat in the ring for the believer host position. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #29
If we don't go the no/one host route, I vote for you. Goblinmonger Dec 2014 #32
As a candidate, my platform is a simple promise; to do as little as humanly possible. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #33
That is a host platform I support. Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #95
I can't support you but I had no idea you were ordained. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #34
Indeed. I officiated a wedding 2 weeks ago. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #35
What kind of minister? hrmjustin Dec 2014 #37
The ordained kind. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #38
Which sect or interfaith? hrmjustin Dec 2014 #39
The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #43
0h! hrmjustin Dec 2014 #44
Indeed. If anyone needs me, I'll be in the kitchenette indulging in prayer, as soon as the microwave AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #47
Enjoy! hrmjustin Dec 2014 #48
heheh can't support? EvilAL Dec 2014 #52
It means i can't support the poster for host. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #53
So then nobody can support AtheistCrusader? nt EvilAL Dec 2014 #55
Where did I say you can't? hrmjustin Dec 2014 #56
You didn't, you said it has to be a believer or EvilAL Dec 2014 #57
You do whatever you feel you need to do. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #58
What? EvilAL Dec 2014 #59
I would be willing to support an atheist for the believer category. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #60
Then why "can't" you support a different one? EvilAL Dec 2014 #61
You mean another atheist? hrmjustin Dec 2014 #62
Nevermind man. Have a good day. nt EvilAL Dec 2014 #63
Sorry but your posts were not clear. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #64
This message was self-deleted by its author EvilAL Dec 2014 #66
And if you read my posts upthread you would have seen I nominated a candidate already. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #65
Well then that would explain the CAN'T. EvilAL Dec 2014 #67
I am not going to. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #68
You do whatever you feel you need to do. EvilAL Dec 2014 #69
I will. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #70
Vote for me! As we've discussed AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #73
You are not sympathetic to believers so I don't feel you are a good fit for the believer host hrmjustin Dec 2014 #74
Unfair and untrue. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #76
It maybe a bit unfair but would you want me to take the unbelievers host spot? hrmjustin Dec 2014 #77
I would not object on those grounds. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #79
If a non-believer post opens up ever I would seriously consider you. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #81
You've taken the words right out of my mouth! rug Dec 2014 #82
That is acceptable to me. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #83
We'll run as a ticket. rug Dec 2014 #84
He's far more likeable than I am. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #85
hahahah EvilAL Dec 2014 #131
He will "do as little as humanly possible" so his sympathies are irrelevant. Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #142
I'm sure he'll have many supporters, okasha Dec 2014 #104
Cool. EvilAL Dec 2014 #132
Morning all - pinto Dec 2014 #41
Your a great poster pinto! hrmjustin Dec 2014 #42
Having worked with you for many, many years, I know that you are a man of integrity. cbayer Dec 2014 #51
I am, thanks. And I'll be around. Made a hasty, mistaken call. pinto Dec 2014 #124
We have all done it, pinto. It is the better person that can stand up cbayer Dec 2014 #138
So what exactly caused you to act as you did? Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #93
I will answer your questions and their implications as best I can, then let's leave this be, OK? pinto Dec 2014 #122
Vote for Just Renew Deal as sole host LostOne4Ever Dec 2014 #49

That hide was sent to a jury, and had nothing to do with the hosts. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #87
This message was self-deleted by its author Sweeney Dec 2014 #89
Unnecessary. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #90
I see you are becoming intimately familiar with the Jury system at this point. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #105
I feel he is quickly on his way to learning about the 90 day time-out for 5 hides Heddi Dec 2014 #106
anyone making a claim that native americans are savages is a bigot. nt. Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #92
This message was self-deleted by its author Sweeney Dec 2014 #96
I wish to examine AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #98
here are the definitions I can find. None of them flattering Heddi Dec 2014 #101
You aren't supplying the "scientific" definitions. Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #108
I picture him in some basement archive Heddi Dec 2014 #110
I don't think you have any qualifications for being host Heddi Dec 2014 #94
Post removed Post removed Dec 2014 #99
I think you're a disgusting person Heddi Dec 2014 #102
How the flying fuck is a poster who writes: Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #107
Hell if I know Heddi Dec 2014 #109
Here's another interesting question: where are all of our regular theists? Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #111
DUH! Because he's tanning hides by hand. Heddi Dec 2014 #112
The guy was a moron Dorian Gray Dec 2014 #128
Yes it does, and good for you. Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #130
none of the theists here have any opinion on this nomination for a host? Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #114
Texas Towlie got a few votes. Heddi Dec 2014 #120
Were the hosts all tempted by the devil? LeftishBrit Dec 2014 #97
He probably just bought their souls Sweeney Dec 2014 #100
I think the point has been reached where a poll should be put up for voting Heddi Dec 2014 #113
What about Sweeney? He was nominated. Warren Stupidity Dec 2014 #116
True. He believes "indians" are "dumb-asses" and 'savages" Heddi Dec 2014 #117
I agree, his lack of DU exppexperience shouldn't be held against him, mr blur Dec 2014 #118
Oh Mr Blur Heddi Dec 2014 #119
After reading the general theme of this thread… NeoGreen Dec 2014 #133

rofl Heddi Dec 2014 #141
Awesome. Goblinmonger Dec 2014 #143
I just got this unsolicited PM from "Sweeney". I have never contacted him Heddi Dec 2014 #121
Alert to the admins. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #123
I did Heddi Dec 2014 #125
What a tool Dorian Gray Dec 2014 #127
I'm for no hosts or Renew Deal only. Hassin Bin Sober Dec 2014 #126
I don't think it matters if we have hosts or not Dorian Gray Dec 2014 #129
Just a reminder that I nominate TexasTowlie for the believer position with permission. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #139
