f conflicting edits
Gaddamn conflicting edits screwed me again.
Ugh. I got conflicted and 404ed to hell there.
I'm not going to even try to count that.
We've killed Blogger
@FB has lost control!
D are I do one more?
I'm laughing hysterically! Thanks, FB!!!! :)
FB, it only lasts for the one "magic" minute. There are five minutes total, not five each time...
no bots, i swear. just making up for missing the first 2 rounds
Wow, now I only see my own posts. She can't take much more Cap'n!
That was awesome FB.
Quick count shows this round 86 - 82 Deltalina though my eyes started to blur after the page break.
F yeah, I have 11:05 stamps on some of those on this page! Make sure those get counted, Katherine Harris.
I just wish they all actually counted. Go Deltalina!
I think FB gets a D for effort
I'm calling FB's work and getting him pulled into another meeting.
oh gawd - sorry everybody. i totally misread "5 magic minutes" - i thought that meant 5 minutes per session, not 5 minute-long sessions
:(
EK if you want to wipe my last 4 minutes of outbursts, please do
I'm not the only one who misunderestimated the strategery of this round's gameplay.
BEST THREAD EVER
It's nigh-impossible to go back and check this, but Team Flo feels a little underrepresented today. Strong effort by those that are here, though.
Did we just trade for Manny?
again i am very, very sorry and a little embarrassed. I thought i could read wurdz and understand them, but apparently I cant
like Dusty said the other day, can we just go back to killing people?
This game is frickin' ridiculous!
I love it
FB, don't sweat it. RB and I did the same thing earlier. The wording was somewhat ambiguous if read one way. I think I have way too much residual LSD in me to read it literally.
Fred's Brim is en fuego
Sax, where have you been hiding? I've heard more from Tiger Woods than you lately.
FB: Just to let you know, I wasn't laughing at you, just the string of comments! The same thing happened at 8:55, except it was a bunch of people going for five minutes. It was just funny seeing all of those consecutively.
Do we have any idea who took that round?
I picture FB as they guy who keeps shooting after everybody else is dead.
i am sure my avatar doesnt help anything :)
Have you noticed that we have to comment more frequently in each game?
I'm wondering if the Sons get more advertising revenue from the site based on the number of comments posted.
If that's the case, I think FB may have just put one of their kids through college!
Team D came to play. I think we only took round 1 because we caught them napping.
Captain Kangaroo looks more flamboyant than I remember him. Maybe it's just the pose. Or the blazer. Or the mustache.
Fun fact: My dad kinda looks like Captain Kangaroo.
FB, I wasn't laughing at you either, it's just funny to see that avatar repeated.
Also, check out the top no. comments of the last 500. FB has a slight lead....
Are we going to have to wait a month for the Supreme Court to settle Flo. v. Deltalina?
Matt,
That's effing hilarious.
Florida! Florida! Florida!
New over/under: 2000! Make it happen!
2000 is going to be tough to beat. I'm going to take the under... unless FB sticks around. And his avatar is fantastic!
New FvD tribute on main page.
Results of round 3 posted
Damn! Lost a squeaker. And now our total is going down.
*pulls open the Matrix of Leadership*
Now...light our darkest hour!
Wow, this is a must-win, and I'm about to get pulled into a seminar for round 4. Hold the line, team Flo!
Okay Team D... With FB's prowess I feel as though I can leave without much guilt. This time zone difference does not work for me (got a cushy faculty job... my Friday afternoons are for golf when it is warmer.
Carry on... I'll see you next week.
The margin of victory is decreasing with each round. Will we see a walkoff post today?
Stevie D-That's what I'm talkin about! Good on you.
Damn. I feel I lost us the last round, seeing how I had to step out of the office to eat.
Can I get a quick Team Flo roll call before the next round starts?
I'll be here in 20 minutes.
I have a bad feeling about this...
It's put up or shut up time.
Now?
Or now?
i'm here for this one
D - time check
DDDDD

F ammit! I wasn't paying attention!
Looks like we got posterized.
D - shoot, firefox crapped out on me. i feel like andruw jones
F UCK BLOGGER IN THE ARMPIT!
Freaking short minutes with these confounding conflicting edits!!
Nice alliteration, if I do say so.
Anybody else get a lot of 404 errors?
I think this thing needed some polishing.
I got a winning combo of conflicting edits, 404s, and an occasionally non-functioning publish button.
We got F'd in the A right there.
Enjoy your victory, team Deltacollagena
I don't think we pulled that one out.
Nice work, Team D. You had the numbers on your side today.
I got the same errors...
I even found a new error, the shrouded-in-secrecy bX-t14bci.
Looks like team Flo got D-estroyed!
Josh Suchon is making his way to the field to interview Team Deltalina.
Will Team Flo stick around until 2:55 to make it close?
I'm back! Did we lose???
Shee-iit
@Orel: "Will Team Flo stick around until 2:55 to make it close?"
Hell yeah! Plus, FB said he can't make that round, so I gotta take what I can get. Still shooting for a Wild Card berth.
Much respect to team D. I am in awe of your spamming prowess.
D HELLO

Results posted.
So, sub-round 1-B was Team Flo's Lima Time, I guess.
Congrats Team Deltalina! You are moving on...
D Where we at??
You can't argue with results. Good performances top to bottom in the lineup, youse guys.
D oomed to relegation, I guess.
D amn - i was hoping to get some things done next week!
good job deltalinans!!
round 2 is insane. 182 combined posts in 1 minute. over 3 posts per second! that has to be some kind of record.
Huh. I thought it was a matter of how many people showed up, but it really wasn't. Going back through the thread, it looks like 11 members of Deltalina played at least one round to Flo's 10, and both teams had about the same amount of those players miss rounds.
Well done again, Team Botoxedintooblivion!
I apologize for not posting during the round we barely lost. I couldn't surreptitiously post like crazy while teaching a class.
No apologies necessary! Especially for doing your real job.
Round 2 was the one we should have taken. I think we had D outnumbered, but they still outposted us.
It'll be interesting to see which criteria EK chooses to pick which of us looooooosssssseers moves on.
*jumps up and down waving hands in the air*
We've made it to the knock-out round!!
So can we start talking up the WC draw now? Love that Group of Death with Brazil, Portugal, and Ivory Coast. North Korea will need a nuclear missle to get out of that one.
@rbnlaw
I'm pulling for Cote d'Ivoire, big time. An elimination round without either Brazil or (more likely) Portugal wouldn't be a terrible thing, in my book.
I think the most balanced group is probably Argentina-Greece-Nigeria-S Korea. I have no idea who is coming out of that one.
Mr. C:
Look out for the Reds of SK. Nigeria is always physical and dangerous. You're right, no walk overs there.
The USA and Engerland should come out of group C.
Fuckitall, this is for pride
Fuckitall, this is for pride
premature.
Early, but I like the way you think, Mr. C!
Team Flo-
Please don't take your beating today personal. Remember you are going to be able to go back to the arms of a girl much uglier than Deltalina!
Arguably so, Wicks, but at least we get a DISCOUNT!

That was a test.

I got a late jump on that one
That looked pretty solid, but blogger's dying again.
Had to do that one from a different desk and someone came to borrow something in the middle of the minute. I contemplated ignoring them.
64-47 Flo. Well played losers.
Damn, Jason with the knife twist.
@Josh S
Where are your priorities? They aren't borrowing, they are *stealing* your time.
That said, my boss dropped by as I was counting the totals. I may be "borrowing" from friends and relatives soon due to "stealing" company time. Thanks Sons!
I don't know, I thought I pulled a pretty swift move with "Click submit with the right hand, hit F with the left hand while handing over the scissors with the right hand, then clicking submit again".
