Do they, or do the lose because of the existence of the Last person to post loses thread?

All of this is a bit existential. I try to avoid difficult questions, they make my brain hurt.

Kinda reminds me of sports teams that name themselves "Bye" (when they can get away with it).
Any team they play against will see their match listed as, for example, "Team A vs Bye", and may not bother to show up.
All sounds a little dastardly, to me.

You get special credit for using the word 'dastardly'. :D :star:

:lol: :lol: Yeah, you got me. I'm not usually a ref-blamer, though ? you get used to it with Richie McCaw in your team. :P
Nice to see you back again, too.

It's one of those words I try to use whenever I can. :wink:

It's one of my favourites. Along with 'behooves'. I think I was born in the wrong era. :wink:

Thanks :)

But in all seriousness I really do wish refs wouldn't sway the results of games. That seems unlikely though.

Well there's no one to sway this result: I win. :D

This topic has survived 2,736 days, 3 British Prime Ministers, 3 Windows versions, 3.5 incarnations of the Nintendo DS (the .5 being the 2DS, which is not Nintendo's flagship handheld console), 2 cricket world champions, every ICC World T20 held so far, and the death of a former British Prime Minister.

No not crickets... cricket. It's kinda like baseball only it makes sense :P

That does look yummy... apart from the grasshoppers. How does it taste though?
