OG == AG?
Why were you talking to yourself in the previous post?

OG == PG, if that helps?

No.
I haven't responded to nicknames like that since I was at school. And even then, I broke the guy's nose and nobody ever did it again.

Ah yes. Could not recall that.

I am thinking along the same lines as A_Griffin above. Specifically: The default should still be that the winner sets it. If he/she declines then it goes to the group.

I wasn't actually thinking that - but still, it's an idea. I don't really have a strong preference any which way.

Was that just deciding to enter local politics; or did he do something more substantive unwise (presumably while drunk) that made him pull the plug?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Referring to travelers as "pikies" and "thieving troublemakers" on Farcebook while trying to get elected didn't go too well: in the middle of the biggest swing to the Tories, he converted a Tory safe seat into a Labour win ... and hasn't been back since.

…and no c**k-ups with tenses either! 
I'm not normally this quick.…. some years ago, when my dad was ill (dying, in fact…) I moved back home for a couple of years to live with my parents, to help my mum out, mostly. She was really good at doing The Times crossword, and we’d sit around in the evenings solving it. She’d get the majority of them, and I‘d feel really pleased if I got a couple before she did! But I suppose I learnt something about how to solve them….

Nope. I thought the support guys on the hotlines usually sit in India, but claim to be John Frankenfurter from Hucklesuck, Texas.
So, if you get the support calls, we now know that you sit in India. Do you really think it's a good idea to pose as Griff here?

For all we know, there is a god-forsaken village in India named Wales, where the sheep roam and the sun never shines.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I love it when tech support claims to be from Texas. I grew up in the DFW area which is where they always seem to be if they are truly in TX. Plus I visited Austin enough that I could always start a conversation about how the weather was, if such and such intersection was still a pain, or if some restaurant was still in business.
It's fun to listen to them squirm as they try to keep up the lie. Plus when they really are there, I can have a conversation with a Texan. Win-win in my book.

I spent a few years in Texas, but in El Paso.
