If you recall?

Why is the partner in such a cloud of mystery?? I have my guesses, but why not just tell us?

yes because letting the community wait for super-special news for weeks after outing something would happen would just be bad form..

(sorry my only contribution is bruce-bashing in this thread but it so many open goals, nothing personal just satire <3 brucy)

I pretty much told you he will play, but he wants to know who we will playing vs! Ofc terms would have to be worked out.

Excellent! i am looking forward to this spectacle. I'm sure it'll be a fine match-up.

Ok Ok you forced my hand on the unveiling! It's me Brucey, I'm coming out of retirement. Fear not though, i shall have the extra fifteen hundred points by lunchtime, tuesday.. of course i only have 4 games at a sitting so i'm hoping i can play GenLee at Real-time, Sequential, classic, Foggy, Adjacent to get the points in time? (that's not trash talk on his quality as a player by the way... i realise danders are high... it's simply comment upon his points tally being the only one high enough to get me to the required score in such a short time ... also in other news: this whole post was a playful ruse and i am not in fact 'The Mystery Player'! Oh what a wheeze.)

But realistically does the Mystery Player change GenLee Decision on whether he plays the challenge or not Brucey?
Personally i'd just spill the beans Fruit, it would be a shame to give opportunity for impasse.

I am sure there are a few players glg would rather not play, but I think most are ok.

I understand why GenLee is not in the thread, he generally gets pilloried wherever he goes as most Conquerors do sooner or later. And of course he simply doesn't have to be here if he doesn't want to. However a simple, "I'll agree to play but first tell me the 4th player" directly from him, would put the ball back in Fruit's court. - I'm sure most dissenters would stay their acerbic tongues for a moment in order to facilitate such a popcorn eating tussle.

That'll do for me.

Let's not turn this into a personal issue. All I ask is that the challenged turns up himself, not through a mouthpiece (with respect to you Bruce). He either says, yes or no....it's not rocket science is it.

Who Fruity chooses as his partner is irrelevant as long as it falls with- in the point parameters that Fruity originally discussed.

Yea this is kind of goofy that GLG wont even accept this challenge himself, but he can use the clan director as a personal mouth piece... great!

by **macbone** on Fri Mar 30, 2012 11:46 pm

I think Bruce is acting more as a friend/clanmate than as Clan Director. =)

Kiron/mc05025 would be a great partner for Fruitcake.

yeap, i think the conqueror is probably feeling a little shell-shocked as he gets shot at every time he sticks his head up over the trench. I reckon he'll turn up for the challenge if he gets a little massage rather than a poke in the ribs.

Why is fruitcake being so mysterious about his partner's name? He's beginning to look - heaven forbid one should think such a thing about him, cough, cough - a trifle foolish on that score.

Yawn.

This thread is about a challenge. It doesn't matter who my partner is. I am sure the incumbent conqueror can get a decent doubles partner can't he? The point is that the scores are as closely matched as possible. Does it not occur to any one that should any prospective partner of mine take a slide in points while we wait for Bruce's friend to show he has a backbone, I would have to change the partner?

Quite frankly, this obfuscation is pretty much what I expected at the get go.

yes it does.

this is about you challenging GLG, not your partner. so this either means you dont have a partner or your partner is someone you are sure GLG doesnt want to play against.
the ball is in your court, and if now this challenge doesnt happen means either Bruce is a liar and GLG never told him he wants to play against you(and im pretty sure thats not the case) or you backed up from challenge you were trying to force... come to think of it, it is possible this is something how did you expect this one to finish...

but to be completely fair, GLG should come here and state what Bruce said... that way we would be sure...
