Perfect grammar might be tough for some people. Anyways, I will place a safety vote for 4WHEELS again.
"Could you imagine how horrible things would be if we always told others how we felt? Life would be intolerably beriable."
"Could you imagine how horrible things would be if we always told others how we felt? Life would be intolerably beriable."
Who will be the juge of wheter or nor one's grammar is perfect?
STRIKE for 3 misplaced/misspelled words, ruining the grammar.

I presume that it is up to MATHGEEK. It was my understanding that he is the rules judge.
"Could you imagine how horrible things would be if we always told others how we felt? Life would be intolerably beriable."
"Could you imagine how horrible things would be if we always told others how we felt? Life would be intolerably beriable."
From the Memo, is it to be believed that all the firings were people who hadn't voted?
If you don't have a dream, how will your dream come true?

Well MATHGEEK, looks like the Habs are about to hit the golf course!

I am the judge for all the rules. One strike give out so far.
EDIT: 6-1 victory for Sens.
Go Sens.

I will keep my sentences short because I hate commas, and I don't want to use them incorrectly. I am going to put in a safety vote for GYMBOY. Do you guys want to clear someone this round? I just want to thank the boss for sending out the memos fast. I appreciate it.
I like the new rule. Lets see how the folks fare with using proper grammar when the SMS language is killing it.
Anyway, I had voted for HABS on my way in as a safety vote.
Leo: Hold on. This is gonna hurt. Coach Hedge: I was BORN for HURT!!

Yeah it's great to see we aren't waiting an age between rounds; this is the way it should be
It's very safe to assume that all fired were mandatory firings as there can only be a maximum of 3 people fired each round.
The new rule...it will probably be a struggle as there are certain words I shorten like 'you're' becomes 'ur' etc.
I'll safety for OMAR for now until we decide whether or not we are clearing anyone or if we would prefer a Majority of One situation?

I might as well put in a safety vote for now. Let's see here....I'll vote for OMAR because he is voting for me.

Jayo, I was this close to striking you for ur, but because it was correct in context, I'll let it pass.

I voted for Faith, for no particular reason, but I do think we should consider clearing someone this round.
MathEdit: STRIKE for not capping Faith.

Thanks for the fix MATHGEEK. What did I do wrong? Can you PM me the right way to do it?
I will take the strike as you are the judge. But technically grammar and spelling are not the same. Spelling is the way a word is spelled and grammar is the correct use of a language. I should proofread my posts better I guess. Yes, they were spelled wrong, but it is not that I do not know how to spell, my keyboard sticks (as you can see, two of them had missing letters) and the third was a typo (I know that does not change the fact they are wrong. I just wanted to point out that I am not an idiot). I can spell. I grew up in an era pre-computers and pre-spellcheck. We were expected to know how to spell. We hand wrote everything and a teacher would stop reading an essay at the 3rd to 5th spelling mistake (depending on the teacher). Excessive "White-Out" was not allowed so we became better spellers. You didn't want to have to rewrite an entire essay because you made a mistake on page 10.

Strike Jayo, "walking the line there, boss!"
Womp womp.
Strike HABS again.
"Thank for the fix, MATHGEEK."
Commas, commas.
Also, HABS, nagnagnag. I'm not subject.
EDIT: Strike DCF for not capitalizing Faith.
Oh, and HABS, I know you are not an idiot, but everybody slips up once in a while.
What you need to do to get those pics to work is use the i##.tinypic url instead of the www.tinypic one.

Is the hidden trivia really hidden, if you post that it is posted? I was just curious.

Are we allowed to post voting lists MATH? I can't remember if you have addressed that topic.

I am feeling very lazy today. All I want to do is sit on my bed and read. So I am going to vote for SEER. Than go spend the day getting lost in books.
After all I am a biblophile.

There won't be a large enough majority for a win here so I'm going to take myself off the potential lemming list and switching to BUU

I am now out of this Who's The Boss Game. I'm trying so hard to use perfect grammar. Okay, well sorry! My computer wouldn't work, so now I am out because I didn't have time to vote. Sorry people, I hope to join the next game! Once again, very sorry.
That is unfortunate FLEETWOOD. I hope you can get your computer fixed.
"Could you imagine how horrible things would be if we always told others how we felt? Life would be intolerably beriable."
"Could you imagine how horrible things would be if we always told others how we felt? Life would be intolerably beriable."
It's fixed now, the problem is that it didn't work when I wanted to vote. Thanks anyway SEEKRGRL!
MATHGEEK, can you make the hidden trivia visible now? I still can't find it.

Seems pretty rat like (or maybe even boss like) to me.

It does count. That will be a strike for 4Wheels.
