That's the Australian way, Hydey. Kick 'em when they're down. Look at the asylum seekers.

I can just imagine the sight when Horse pulls up to Makeo's shac--er, house:
An unshaven, reeking man with a dirty, bloody tea towel wrapped around his hand, followed by 3 filthy little boys with boogers cemented to their faces, carrying baskets of spoilt oysters.
Gee, won't the neighbors love that!
On second thought, we are talking about Australia...probably a fairly routine tableau.

He all has to do is concede:

a. His rep is decidedly spotty just like the rest of us.

b. He's sometimes a slow player.

All the Deity frivolity revolves around those 2 sticking points, both of which he set up himself.

Sorry, Horse, I think there's a typo in point (b). The second word.

Counts for nought around here, boyo. Everything is taken at face value.

We all know he's slow because of the parrots nibbling at his rubber band connection and as for his rep, well no-one actually cares so get off his back and go back to picking on the Yanks.

I think this can only be settled by a Horse/Fin vs. Hydey/Diety Katie bar the door grudge match.
Let's get ready to ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumble!
Gentlemen, name your terms.

You forgot the other - and much preferred - option, Sneak. That we combine to take on you.

I would be happy to arrange a game with you guys...time zones permitting...I'm US Pacific time zone...I think you guys are 16 hours ahead.
Just a couple of caveats, though:
1) I suck at this game and will require a strong second from your crew to assist me in my slow death.
2) I won't tolerate any name calling.

Horse, Hydey, Deity, Raz and finbar are all on Oz East Coast time when out of daylight saving mode - like now - and we're 14 hours ahead of US East Coast, thus 17 hours ahead of Sneak.

When we're in daylight saving mode, we're 16 hours ahead of US East Coast, thus 19 hours ahead of Sneak. And Raz is one hour behind us because Queensland doesn't adopt daylight saving because they're afraid the hour of extra sunlight will fade the curtains.
