WANTED: Hijackers!

[t_perkin]

Ok,

Now that Stars have private tournaments I have got myself a new sport.

Hijacking other forum's private tournaments.

I successfully hijacked the pokerforum.net tournament and beat them into the ground, taking first place (with the help of a couple of other 2+2ers).

Another private forum tournament is looming.

clubpoker.net

Now this is one that I really want to win. Not only are they a rival poker forum;

THEY ARE ALL FRENCH! /images/graemlins/laugh.gif /images/graemlins/shocked.gif /images/graemlins/laugh.gif

So come on people lets show "Le forum de Club Poker" who is the king of poker forums.

I have used my wonderful grasp of french (hee-haw hee-haw hee-haw, bonjour mangetout) to discover their password which is passion.

The game is at 3pm EDT on May 6th (2 days away)

I am even asking you "bloody americans" to lend a hand in this one. But don't worry we will kick you back into the gutter on the 8th May. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

p.s.: I am not really a xenophobic dickhead, it is just a bit of fun.

Like he** you're not. And I'm a third generation zonophobe FrogStomper. Can I get in?

I didn't even know you polite, proper, tea sipping, English Gnomes had thing about the frogs. You may prove to be alright yet. (Excluding Saturday, of course!)

Ha!

Your dislike of the french spans a whole 6 months because of that poxy war.

The french and english have been mutually hating one another for centuries!

We have trees older than the USA - you have hardly had time to work up even a mild dislike for anyone. /images/graemlins/grin.gif /images/graemlins/tongue.gif /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Your points are valid, however, I would like to point out that the USA also has trees older than the USA /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Great Line. However, we seem to have a pretty good track record for hating whoever is pissing us off at the moment /images/graemlins/grin.gif

You left out that most famous French military term, se rendre (surrender).

[mackthefork]

Unfortuately they have trees older than England too, maybe they are okay though t perkin as they have the French worked out. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Funny story. I was visiting a friend in London in early October, 2001. We were at the Lamb & Flag pub (I think) and we were talking about the recent attack on the WTC. I was talking about the history of responses to terrorism, and I mentioned the 1986 attack on Tripoli. Well, all of a sudden, everyone within earshot stood up and raised their glasses in a toast to the Yank, saying "and you bombed the French!"

You mean like us and the English having to go save their useless butts every time they get into it with anybody since 1917? And then they treat Americans like their lower class cousins from across the tracks when anybody visits their crummy little country, or the free world needs a little help somewhere?

Consider the fact that the french are the ONLY country in the world other than North Korea that are still involved in a nuclear testing program, and refuse to stop even when their "friends" in the free world ask them to.

No, I don't have to work hard at it at all, neither did my dad or granfather who were both IN the two major conflicts over there.

Sorry Stage, you got this one wrong. They really are deserving of the bad attitude they so easily engender in the rest of the world.

[t_perkin]

yes I know, the trees joke does not really stand up to much inspection.
I just happened to be reading about a 3,800 year old tree in Somerset before I wrote the post /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Tim

P.S.:(yes I know that there are older trees in the oh so wonderful US of A).

[Profit]

hopefully they don't do the same thing to us on saturday /images/graemlins/confused.gif

Everytime? Did I miss some war involving the french post '45?

[DrPhysic]

No, you missed a war not involving the French post 2002.
