Ok, let's have a game of huff Trumps. We take it in turns, alternating picking men and ladies who have gone off in a huff at some point. I bet we run out of women first.

I'll start :-

The Tramp

Obviously this is just a suggestion that needs ratifying, but I would say that we should catagorise "HUFF" as people who have publicly said they are not posting any more because of an arguement, or someone who has attempted to actually remove themselves from the forum.

Otherwise you could end up counting anyone who used to post but doesn't any longer.

You swine, I was gonna have Mr McGregor next.

Ok,

Gordon J Powell. (Good bloke by the way, but does qualify in helping me make my point)

I know I'm gonna win this. Hec, I haven't even exhausted my list of people who's huff was caused by CJ yet!!!

**Dreadful Scathe** · 28th-June-2005, 01:42 PM

Aren't Gordie and Gordon the same person ?

Nice one

You know, you could do a great set of cards with these, and using their avatars... I'm almost tempted.

Almost.

Well Alex said he was going off in a huff here on 28 February (Self indulgent contradictory irrational tosh) and then reappeared here on 5 April, and has been posting regularly since.

So what about people who say they're going off in a huff, and then come back? Do you get half points? Or extra points for a refusal? Is there a bonus based on the length of time they stay away? Do you get a double bonus if no-one noticed they were gone? Please clarify.

**Minnie M** · 28th-June-2005, 02:34 PM

Mikey

Chris (as in Chris Docker)

Carla B

**Lory** · 28th-June-2005, 02:37 PM

Filthycute and JiveBrummie did a double act... thus countering eachother out in the girl/boy stakes!

But have both been back recently

I don't think MIkey went off in a strop - it sounds more like he was run out of town on the sharp end of a posse.

How about DavidB? He was off for a while.

Double dare with cherries on top!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice idea, but I think a deck of cards would be better.

Imagine the debates about who's the King Of Clubs - or indeed, the Joker

I nominate myself for the Ace Of Spades, by the way...

CJ · 28th-June-2005, 03:04 PM

I think top trumps would be easier to decide upon but more contentious whilst playing.

That said, kings should be:
Franck
DavidB
Tramp
Dancing Teeth?

Queens:
Lory
Tiggerbabe
Lou
Chicklet

Aces: (the wild bunch)
CJ
DS
Gus
Gajjit

Jacks:
BTC Bill
John S
DD
Will

These are all without HUGE amounts of thought.... discuss!!

Yeah, I used to be apathetic but now...no never mind

For proper trumps we need more catagories. The 'huffy' emphasis is too biased towards the huffy people, cos theres really not that many. Theres also a distinct differenece between storming off in the huff, getting bored with the whole thing and removing yourself to protect others from your retaliation in kind

I nominate Tigerpants for Queen of Diamonds

I would of course nominate myself as joker and promise to wear the whole getup . Of course nominating yourself is bound to put people off voting for you in this sort of thing...oh well

Oh you do do you. A whirling dervish of a woman that is Lou may argue about that one

How can you miss out Andy McGregor in that list? I think we'll need more than 4 suits, though.

Lory... Queen of Hearts (bless her)
Tiggerbabe... Queen of Clubs, of course.
Sparkles.. .Queen of Diamonds!
ElaineB.. Queen of Spades (whilst she's in the garden - our very own Charlie Dimmock).
Chicklet... maybe Queen of Cups

And I bags Queen of Pentacles, of course.

I wanted to be a Queen - of DIAMONDS!!!!!

(and I am forum queen - at least until the BFG....)
Sorry, girlies, but one of you will have to relinquish your spot, please...

P.S. don't you just love it when someone else has the same idea as you at the same time?!
