You referred to bridge as a game of luck. I wish I could assume you were joking, but sadly, you did not apepar to be.

Also, you say "The games don't count in the official standings of anything and I just want to have some fun. And you don't have to play the game if you don't like how the game is played. It bears repeating since you just don't seem to get that ..."

Walter, you are STILL FAILING TO EXPLAIN why playing with the restriction limits your fun in any way! that you REPETAEDLY fail to address this shows that you don't even really believe your own drivel!

You say that your statement bears repeating because we don't get it??

YOU DON'T GET IT! your statement is INVALID!!!!! DID YOU READ ANYING GARY AND I WROTE? You have the gall to question our study and research when you don't even pay attention to our points of argument? We SPECIFICALLY rejected each of your claims with SOLID arguments, and all you do is dismiss them by repeating a blanket statement!!!!!!!!! Why do you think that is a good way of making your point?

Let me furhter illustrate, since you are deliberately missing our point.

I don't like LOTS of games. I do not like battleboats, any form of checkers, connect 4, risk, and many others. BUT, DO YOU HEAR ME OBJECTING TO THOSE GAMES????????????????


NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So your implication that we are objecting to the pante "variant" simply because we do not like it IS AN INVALID IMPLICATON ON YOUR PART!!!!!!!!!!

It also shows that you are not actually addressing our individual points, because we EXPLAINED VERY CLEARLY why our opposition to the variant goes FAR BEYOND our just not liking it!
