Dear Mr Stiller,

I have noted your formal application for a change to your official ranking. The poetburo is meeting later this morning (we are considering action against smokey who persists in sending me private messages, see below) and will revert to you henceforth and before and thereafter

critic2, The Poetburo President

Smokey wrote: Michael, it seems compleetely unfair that Avalon shoulkd be the only one in the Useless Troll category. I ma definitely morer useless than her and I understand why you wont promote me but now I want too be demoted, HA HA HA

And he is a cheat.
Adieu

Maybe you should start writing a haiku one of these days.

"and he is a cheat" - this might be a great final five-syllable line...

may i suggest

this humble writer
does not know what's right or wrong
and he is a cheat

but there's room for improvements from Avalon, Morgan LeFay

goodness! I feel another poetry competition coming on! the subject should be "michael is a liar, dissembler and cheat". to ensure fairness I suggest that smokey should be the intermediary and Avalon the Judge. what do you reckon?

i strongly object.

this would exclude the beautiful poetry we lesser souls would have to expect from those you nominated.

do you think they'd know the difference between a haiku, a High Queue, and a High IQ?

or the declaration of a pool or snooker player who has decided to break....

Tom, stick to your drink and stop trying to be a smartass
C2, stick to your law (avoid poetry).
C2, your BOSS is watching how you use your time.
Adieu

see first post of this thread for changed rankings for Tom, Byron and Useless Avalon.

Michael/Critic2 is a LIAR, DISSEMBLER and a FRAUD.

Avalon again barely visible in the mist. This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.

I concede you are the smartassed. No one ever can be smarter than you. Not in this century. (There we are again: a queue, 22 balls, foul, and a miss...)

some more high-queues for you to practice:

your queue is broken.
i hate to break it to you:
you're in a snooker.

your twenty-two balls
scattered over the table.
no way to pot one.

what did you expect?
you did not qualify for
sheffield and brighton.

Michael/Critic2 is a LIAR, DISSEMBLER and a FRAUD.

And a cheat.
And Tom is a drunken snooker player always playing with his balls!!!
Adieu

So Avalon, you don't like it when the 'tables' are turned........?

Byron,
I think Avalon won't even like lazy Susan. There's nothing turning on Avalon's table.

And I'm not always drunk. Too much repetition bores me, Avalon.

I have never been to those events but for several years in a row I went to the B&H at Wembley. One year there was a streaker and a marvellous vignette of age difference in the family. My Dad woke up, my son asked me "why is she doing that?", I just stared silently.
