Simple Game.

Simple Rules.

The last person to post on this thread is the winner.

So far, I'm in the lead! :D


~Sandy

Okay, you win. :cool:

OK. So, now I'm the winner since I'm the last to post.

"On this thread "

Think litteral

So, I am seeing in the definitions below, many ways to be "last" and not to be "replaced" or "displaced" by the next to post!

How many people can claim separate ways to be "last" thus being "co-winners?"

Ok.. I'm the winner for the moment..

Hummmmmmmmmmmm

Guess that didn't work eh

David

I recieved your letter about donating to the new forums

but being a truck driver and not getting to my computer enough to stay abrest of the new medium you are developing for us !!!!

Being ADD and forgetting to send some money !!!

or and I like this excuse the best

Being that you havent swamped us with begging and pleading for money ------------- But that there is no link ( That Is Highly VISIBLE ) to send us to the area that will remind me to send you some money and (Keep us updated to the new forum )

I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT YOU CREATE A LINK ON THE FIRST PAGE at the top AND MAKE IT A STICKY and do it with bright colour so that it grabs my eye the moment I log on.

This is a request from me and feel free to post it as such so that other people dont see it as " ASKING FOR MONEY" in a very blatent way.

You can count on me to make a donation as I feel it is well worth it, as for the help support and strength that I have gained from being a member of the forums.

I just need a visible " KICK IN THE PANTS" to motivate me.

I am very impressed that the only thing I have seen is the " Donate" icon at the bottom of the screens, but being an ADDer who doesnt like putting the credit card number or stuff out there on the net I would be more likely to send you a check.

There possibly allready is a link and I havent seen it yet so excuse my ADDness if its allready there.

Waiting to hear an update as to the progress.

Garry

A PROUD CANADIAN ADDer !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AND I WIN

Sheepish Grin

Once I looked in the correct place I found a link


Make it Visible
Make it Loud
Make it Bright and Colourful

You are not begging or pleading and you are providing us with an updated product from one that has already earned the value of a donation.

Besides I can probally write it off as a tax shelter

Do you give reciepts !

Are you a charitable entity ????

WINNER....................so what do I win for winning????????:)

the privalage of being the winner but your not I am

And the winner is.......

ME AGAIN....Cool!!!!!!!!!!

Persistence is one of my finer qualities, patience with others is not.

I dont want to play this game no more

its not fair

every time i win and declare it as such

someone else cheats and start the game again

so dont

cause

I win

ok.




:D

see I told you

Last but not least... :p I refuse to be last..lol ;)

If I said you are last then you would win so now your not last

Yeah...What Garry said :)

:p It's all about me! :p

Not anymore...lol

At last!

*posts* a few days gone & now once again i shall be declared winner of this game :D

Victory is all but fleeting...

Realistically none of us are going to win :D

Whoever's in charge of the forums will probably post & then close the topic afterwards...cheap, but something i would do if i had the power lol. j/k. I can see this topic going 500posts

Muhahahaha...Imagines the possibilities...lol

Ha I figured out how to win

I am going to post here and then never come back to this thread and therefore I will allways be the winner in my mind and being that there is no prize

My prize will be knowing that I made the last post

you know the saying

If a tree falls down in the forest when nobody is around
Does it still make a noise

Well Im declaring myself as the official winner and being that Im the winner then theres no need to come back to this thread cause I am the winner and therefore the game is over

OK.

So I declare that like being president, once President, always President.

Once Last, Always Last!

No need to be last AGAIN. Anyone who has been last is a winner!

WEAK!:rolleyes:

OK guys, try never checking back to this thread again, just see what happens!:p :D :p

Ok. It is hopeless. the starter wins.

Here's why. as we look back on the thread ... starting HERE the farther we go, the more desperation we retrace.

The Last post we come to, is... the starting post!

She won both BEFORE and AFTER anyone else posts.

No matter how many people post, when we trace back she will always be the LAST poster we can uncover. She is ALWAYS last. She can never NOT be last.

Others can be more recent, but only she can truly be "last."

< smile >

Oh, confound your logic, Wheel!:p

I win and here's why: because I do. And you can't make me, nah-nah ne nah-nah!:p

I have to say, of my several attempts, that one seems most... compelling! < grin >

(Now i'm last.. most recently!)

oooooh.......hmmmm.....its soooo tempting to say it now....OK....I win....WOOHOO YIPEE Hurray.....

Well if the world were to come to an end RIGHT NOW.....it means I would WIN..........yippeee!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well actually I am the Last one in this long line of posts and Sandinmyears was the FIRST person to post. Wheel you love Semantics and splitting hairs....I am both the last and the most recent post.

Don't make me say it again, folks!:mad:

Okay I won't Flakey.....:) By the way, your avatar is great Flakey....:)

I wouldn't dream of stealing your spotlight either, Flakey...

Durn! You totally busted me!

First in time is last in line... Last in time is first in line. FILO

I win.....and what messed up movie theaters did you go to as a kid....I mean, I have never seen anyone point to someone at the end of a line, who obviously got there last and say "yeah you...you're first everyone follow him single on the little silver line....jimmy...get your finger out of your nose..." (oops, flashback)

WINNER HERE:)

I was think about the Movie line as well, and when you go to the great new opening movie and darn, your are......Last in line.
I loved going to the opening of the Star Wars movies as a kid, Retun of the Jedi after my paper route with my friends on a Saturday morning, and I would be darned if we still weren't last in line when we go ther :)

That is me for the moment!

.

For those FILO doubters....

Have you never been the FIRST onto a school bus? And you pass up ALL the seats easily seen to be in the BEST place by the exit in the rear? And you are LAST out, EVEN to the movie (It is a field trip isn't it?)

Or what about the people who get into an elevator going home ... First in, crushed to the back... LAST OUT on the ground floor!

First In, Last Out.

I doubt it applies to parking at amusement parks, large sporting events and the like. Everybody gets to Dodger Stadium late (except me. It's the one place I am ever early) and most leave early.

SubtleMuttle; world famous hypnotist says:

You do not wish to post on this thread...

There are so many other threads worthy of your time...

Be not tempted to post any more...

For you are no longer interested in posting...

Stop now.. Stop the insanity.. Just stop now before it's too late..

*COUGH!!-immawinner-COUGH!!*

'scuse me, allergies

Zoned out ... in a disembodied voice "you are the winner... you will always be the winner... i will never be the winner... you have certainly won ... you are the winner..."

until now. ha HA!

(eyes glazed, drooling, face drained of all blood) Thy power of suggestion art grater than mine... Yes Wheel, I am the winner... I will always be the winner... (you hear climatic music and a thunder clap) I WIN I WIN I WIN AHAHA AHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a game only a moderator can win. All they have to do is lock the thread.

Correct, but then where would the fun be in all that? :D

True and if a moderator closed the thread -- well that's a bit controlling....in my opinion....:(

I like cheese.

I like cheese on rye with tuna fish in a toasted sub roll with lettuce and tomato and onions and pickles...:)

I am thinking more along the lines of a hot pastrami and swiss on rhye with fries and fried mushrooms with horseradish dip on the side. Served with a cold Michelobe, or Killian's Red to cure what ails me.

That sounds good too E-boy....especially the pastrami idea....YUM....HOT pastrami on rye.....YUM......I would prefer some potato salad with that......:)

Pretty good taste lady. I still gotta stick with the fried mushrooms and horshradish dip though. It totally compliments the beer, and I am a sucker for hot food anyway.

Okay LOVE the mushrooms too.....Horseradish not so much....and not much of a beer drinker....but I'll take ginger ale:D

P.S. What's for dessert??????????????

I am not a big sweet eater... Ummm.... Backlava?

While you guys are thinking about food Garry sneaks in and wins the game with the Last Post

Oh no you don't, Gary.

Well I'll share this with Sandi and Garry......:)

Well there are lots of leftovers from 3 turkey dinners to share

Please come by for a turkey sandwich

Cause while your here you cant be there at your computer therfore I awways be last if Im stuffing you with turkey

Truly, the "last" one to post will be the last user of the forum... as such, no one else will be around to gloat to, or win anything from...

Turn out the lights on the way out...

No way You do it Im staying

It could also be a matter of interest. Whoever loses their interest last wins.

Perhaps, but there are always newcomers... until there aren't any comers...

I had beef for breakfast. I'll be a mad cow for lunch. Tag you're it.

Garry -- the sandwich sounds good....I'll take a good turkey sandwich ANYTIME....with mayo and lettuce and tomator please:D

And you can win here....

we are all winninghere, in the sence that we have developed a friendship, here that transends the bounds of normallity as the linear thinkers see it.

We can play a silly game amonst grown addults where we are not huting anyone , we dont have to kill anything to be victorios and we all know deep in our hearts that there can never be a winner......

so now that I confussed the issue, I sneak in a winning goal by running a 100 yard touch, down while wearing tennis shorts and snowshoes

I win

Or it is a cellebration of the peaceful transfer of winner status... easy come, easy go.

foiled again

BEEP!

Bah Humbug

Definitive ANSWER

Spoiler ahead! Don't not read if you don't want to see the definitive conclusion to the question "Who is the winner of the "last post" contest!


If you go into the board software, and you click on this threads' starting author, and you go to "last" it will take you to the most remote in time (ie past) post.

By analogy then the "last" poster is the most "past" poster, not the most recent poster.

Again Last thread means "prior" and next thread means "subsequent."

There is just no way to add a post and be "last," or most prior.

Most recent, yes!
Last... no, sorry.

And once again, I'm the last post. :)

hmm. let's see...

this reminds me of the signs i saw in chicago...

"Speed enforced by aircraft"

It drove me nuts.

Finally i saw a sign i could accept:

"Speed Monitored by aircraft"

I mean, geeze, what were they going to do, fly really low and grapple hook cars that were too fast and keep them from going faster (enforce)?

So, my computer posts to this thread, but how does a person post to this thread... hmmm....

Welcome to the Matrix :)

I'm craving chocolate.

Nothing worse than an unsatiated craving

I made toast and spread cream cheese on it.. took care of my sweet tooth for now.

Yumm

I'm out of diet coke.

Can you send in some high octane Coke here to the matrix?

Maturity is "owning" that the 'point' of an interaction is not the "point."

And i got cognitive,
but i ain't got no maturity!

I win by your rules, (I'm last)
She wins by my rules...
And rules aren't the point... but they are all i can own.

< smirk >

Well here I am last but not least.
I sit here upon this thread,
waiting until someone will come to take my place.

This does not discourage me,
as I know that I too,
can replace that who may think,
that they too are the last one to post.

Well, well, well....I leave for a couple of weeks and you all think you can win?

A good friend came over today and brought me a 12 pack of diet coke!!

Once again I came to try and rhyme,
only to find 2 more came before my time.

Try as we may to be the last to post,
We all know who will win, and that will be the host.

A convert
in meter
and in rhyme


Be it enough?

I don't have time,
to make up a rhyme.

Apparently I do,
Cows say, "Moo".

(I never said it was a good rhyme!!)

Well, you were unchallenged for some time! congrats!

I'm most recent! Now...

ha i win



(please let me win i need the boost)Whiny self pitying voice used.

Ok. You're a winner :D

Ah your so sweet, but why couldnt you have started another thread to tell me so?

Well...we wouldnt want people to be confused...would we? :D

Ho Ho, but yes i admit you have a point

This thread may never be killed! It is the thread that never ends

sure it does...

it ends over and over and over!

Darn.. I thought I was going to be the winner. Perhaps I will be nowwwwwwwwwwwwww!

You were the winner, and chances are, will be again!

That is, if this end of the line is the end that counts...

only WINNING counts

Nobody better post after I do. :mad: :p

Ok. i post worse after you!

DANG!

Ya...

And i'm so sweat about it too!

Been doing a heavy work-out then David, all that sweating.

Being so Sweet i would have said Glowing but there you go.

This post is like that song. The one that goes on and on! :p


Oh yeah..I win ;) :D :cool:

spelling spelling spelling sweet, sweat...oh well!

Click This Link (http://www.addforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3193)

oooooooKaaaaay..so the link takes me right back to the beginning. And, now we have it..
The never ending Post, that must go on & on, with out no end as it will go right back to the first to continue on to the last.

I'm laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaast!

Nice Try Garry!

*Sits on this last post and blocks the next person's post*
Ya know what they say about wide bottom girls ;)
And I ain't budging.. :p


(no it ain't making the rocking world go around either :p)

Now now... there there...

I'll just be here till the new day... so...

*Bonks Wheel on da head with the dreaded rubber chicken*
My spot..
*gives the evil eye to the next person to post* :p

...but then you wake up to read my Winner post...for now

Oh, but Meg, can you out last me. :D
As I seldom sleep and can always come back to post yet again. :p

*I tiptoe in and whisper, "I'm last"

I sit watining on the last post waiting for everyone to go away...
(I sleep about 6 hours a night, and I have unlimited Internet access, good luck Spirit)

I also have unlimited internet access and a completly unreasonable need to win this, so good luck.

Also i was wondering if there is an upper limit on how long a thread could be?

Until the forum server cashes for lack of harddrive space methinks.

Oh yeah...i'm last

I spect your right about that.

The server bit, that is.

Tell me what each of you is allergic to. Just curious.

*looking around shifty-eyed with evil smirk upon her face*

Suspect myself of being a "thread killer", so I'll summarize, pontificate, advise and insist on having the last word......

ROFLMFAO! I immediately thought of this thread when I read that one and concluded that Wheel couldn't be a TK, since he has posted often on this one without "winning.! Evidence for the scientist.;)

Allergic to not a lot but i reckon talking about my sons bad habbits for a while might work.

I could start with what he does with his nose when noone is looking?

My 1st forray into this thread and I am winning for the moment. A gold star for me. I believe it will be short lived though. So I will enoy the moment.

Oh but meg I too have unlimited internet access. And I only sleep for about 2 hours a night..and sometimes I don't sleep at all for days.

Oh Yea I win for the time being..muahahahahahaha

My turn..

You are right!

Well since we all intend to continue trying to win, i thought i might make use of having everyones attention (at least for the time it takes them to add somthing).

Finding nemo for PS2. There is a game in that where you have to bounce on these snails.
There is no clue as to how you can prevent the snails popping up and so i assumed that the idea is to get all of them down at once. If anyone has any clue how this can be done i would love to know.

till the next time.

well, But Capri has the right idea for how to kill the thread, ... add an aditional 'point" to it tht is serious and weighty... (I have no PS2)

Like drugs... it starts recreationally... then the technical and philisophical questions start rising, slowly at first , then faster and faster, until there is a deafening roar of work, efort, overwhelm, and like a super nova POOFF..

The thread is dead!

And I the TK, WIN! (by losing!)

Now, seriously, ladies and gentlemen, I was intending to hold the title for say, most of a day... well 24 hours... but... some people have not seen fit to grant me this honor.....

now, what must i do?

< sly smile >

try harder

Cheese toast and diet coke.. a yummy start to a hopefully productive day!

yumm ( you can keep the coke) I'm up for that.

.....and so in conclusion, and to summarize.......

To summarize....WE ARE ALL WINNERS:)

The question is what does winning this game really say about the winner.

Ohh threat of scurge ... inventive move!

We aim to please.

Capri: What does it say about the winner????????????

In my opinion, not much.....:(

Maybe you could use your imagination a bit?

It could say allsorts about the winner in my humble opinion.

persistance. would be a good word.

Okay, persistence is good....or perhaps the NEED TO WIN at SOMETHING.....:)

(even if it's just a little game such as this).....

OR perhaps the winner is a curious type of person....wanting to check back here every so often and POST -- in which case he gets to see what others have posted...that makes him a curious person....I would think.....

How's my imagination now, Capri??:)

I just had cereal for dinner

Thanks I forgot I still need to eat dinner!

I rarely ever forget a meal.. what did you eat?

TV dinner, microwaved 4 minutes.

LMBO..this thread is AD/HD at it's finest..it goes in several directions in just a few posts.

Hmm..does that say something about the person who tries to be the last one to post? Hee Hee

What it says to me is.....I Win :p

Yes but is it rediculous for anyof us who have poted before to post again?

The rules do not say the last POST wins, they say the last PERSON to post...

Once you post, you fix your spot in line of the "people" who have posted... posting again doesn't change you relative to a new poster, who remains the last new PERSON to post, until another new person displaces them from that "honor."

???

If you're trying to disuade us from posting again so you can win, then you're little evil plan didn't work, mister!!!!!

Muahuahuahuahua

You've go to admit the theory is sound.
Dont you think if everyone thinks the rules work in one way they will honour the winner as they see them rather than accept a different form of the rules, which forces them to alter their thinking.

Hey, I've got one reason why the first person posting is the actual winner and serveral more why no one else can win until it doesn't matter...

i love game theory...

And in REAL problems it can help provide some real insight, but then , definitions are everything.

And, anyway, according to current practice and mutual delusion, I am again the new winner.

not any more you're not

Now it's ME!!

Since I am the only person here who I know in person; I AM the last PERSON to post! Me wins!

I think something should be attributed to winning on the dark or light blue. I win on light blue- light blue is the color for winners here! Touch!

...Familiar with Calvin Ball???

Well in that case i win on the slightly, darker light, blue.

And I am on the gray:) (not that that means anything)....

Its blue i am sure it is blue

Oh no you're absolutely right:( It's gray while I write -- then it turns blue after submitting.....

Ah yes -- another Sunday afternoon.....which I'm grateful for because I have some free time to post.....:)

had to post, i mean i really had to post, cos i wanted to see how well my little shrunken capri came out.

Its true no matter what you do to them a capri is a capri and still the best car on the road, with the possible exception of it's sire the Ford Mustang MK1.

Nope the capri's the best. Sorry i just decided that even if the Mustang came first, and is a great car, the capri is still the best.

So I think you must be right. the way to win this is to recognize that all these other posts could be automated... and self referentially, then you are the only person and you win...

Then you don't need to post again, because non-persons cannot win or take the victory from you!

QED

Umm nice thought, makes you wonder doesnt it?

sure...

I won't post again if the rest of you don't post again :D

But we're all 'bots, so it doesn't matter if we post or not!

You winner you!

We're you taking me seriously???

The thread can be read forwards or backwards. It continues expanding one way, and may never stop. Therefore, there is only one place where it ends as a last post; and we know who that is!

yep. I tried that one...

But I'm a bot, so your previous post has made you THE WINNER!

no need to post any more < smile >

LMBO, Wheel I'm not named Spirit for nothing.. ;) :p

I geuss i have an unfair advangtage here. When all you nice americans go off to bed after a long day/night of out-posting each other, i get up and reign all day.

This reminds me of the gold rush....

How so?

Yes how so?

The people who rushed to it did not get rich...

those who sold them things did!

thought I would jump in and take the lead for a while.

ah yes i see now!

I like your car Capri.....ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM:)

Now theres a person with taste.
She sure does go ZOOOOOM.
Somthing to do with the Cologne V6 under the bonnet i reckon and the mechanical injection system helps things along too.
Not to mention how light she is.

Driving her is somtimes the only thing that can make me feal alive. You can wheel spin (rear wheel drive) in 1st 2nd and even 3rd if its wet.

Sorry bit of a petrol head, caught the bug off my hubby(he tells me theres no cure).

I drive a Saturn.

not bad, not a capri, but not bad.

whaddaya think of a Ford Exploder?

I drive a Mazda myself. Zoom zoom zoom....

My kids would love a Ford Explorer or the British equivelent the Galaxy. These are both pretty good cars and yet driving one is, to me, like driving my couch.

When i drive i need to be low to the ground to keep contact to the road. I need as few modern comforts as possible and i need to know i must be switched on. Rear wheel drive will make the back end whip out at the least provocation.

This and only this makes me a good driver. I know this for a fact because in my Decade or so of driving i have never had any kind of bump in a capri. I have Driven several other cars during this time and in each one i have had some form of accident.

Mazda's really are about the best car from that region of the word and the MX7 used the same chassis as the Ford Probe.
Although the Mitsubishi Skyline is a pretty nice car, beter as a raly car though.

In general any car that doesnt look just like every other car on the road is worthy of owner ship. I also firmly beleive that the comfort and safety features on modern cars have a lot to answer for in building a false sense of security.

Capri: Are capri's female??????????????????:)

Oh yes. All capri's are girls, every last one of them.

When we go to a meet, me and my capri, you only have to walk around the stalls and peoples cars and listen to what they say.
things like,
"We gave the old girl a new coat of paint"
"she really likes to keep you on your toes, just when you think you got it sussed she will blow a fuel line"

Stuff like that.

Most of the best cars and aeroplanes and ships are designed by men (just a fact) and they think of them in terms of beauty and perfection. So it stands to reasen they are all girls.

My Girl is 17 years old and i think she has been around long enough to have develped a personality and with her temprement she must be a girl.

They are also built for SPEED and not for COMFORT, much like myself(also a girl)

Your Capri is nice
