And that, Longy, is the proof you wrote no such article. An Australian writer would use Faith Bandler or Charles Perkins. The very fact you would assume no one else knows who Rosa Parks is key.

You haven’t just lost the challenge, you’ve destroyed any authority you had. By authority, I mean your own voice. No one ever really believed you anyway, but this time, they know you don’t believe you anyway.

Bring back Gold Medal. Longweekend is done.

wow... a rare Karnal tantrum! you really are a bad loser and while I have not read your purported article should it indeed exist mine has clearly embarrased and angered you.

I told you I was good and clearly you didnt realise how good.

'reprinted with permission' is my new tagline for my lengthy OP articles. It is used to annoy and rub salt into your wounds.

Hmmm... what will I do next... another well-written article expressing support for Climate Change or perhaps forced aboriginal assimilation or better.... affirmative action for aboriginals!!!

nice surrender Karnal. I am SO enjoying myself.

I agree it is wonderfully made up to be sure, but as I said, no passion and in 1200 words no less. That alone for any honest person would knock a few of the "how good am I" points off....

After all, you were not good enough to present a passionate argument supporting the topic of your choice. You presented a made up story, mostly about historical campaigners for rights, then some more made up stuff about "social evolution" and, with a few hundred words to go you wove in the concept that Gay Marriage was inevitable...

I wouldn't get too carried away with yourself there mate. You are the only one telling you how good you are presently.

Further, only about five days after the first challenge was taken up and completed too...

By all means though, put up a heap of OP's about stuff you disagree with, hell, I may grow to enjoy reading your new opinions.

I wonder how many people recognise the playbook that is a variation of the 'long con'. Karnal, so convinced of his own superiority and trumped only by Aussie who seems to think he is/was God's gift to the legal profession got dragged along for days in a setup. I always knew I could school them, but I also knew they would not write after me so we played a little game and like children, they fell in step and wrote first.

If I can get anyone to compete we can do it again. Perhaps write a speech for a fictional speaker and see how that fares. Or I can just listen to the pathetic complaints that apparently I didnt write it.

But maybe I will write some articles espousing causes I dont truly beleive in. It could be fun!

The only arguments in the piece that speak specifically to gay marriage are quoted for somebody else.

There are no arguments put forward by the author.

This is just a synopsis of other people's work .. not, as Phem says, a passionate essay on gay marriage. It lacks any soul or feeling or any cohesive argument at all for that matter.

While it is well written, it does not suitably address the subject matter.

My vote is still for Karnal.

of course it is. and the 'quotes' from someone else were quotes from... ME. I am the 'professor'. and anyhow, I could write "I have a dream.." and you would support anyone else.

Karnal's essay fulfilled the brief Longy. Yours didn't.

If you really believed that, you’d have taken a couple of days and written your own article.You’re completely aware we all know it’s not yours. You’re not even pretending.

I agree with them now. You really are the biggest fake here.

You’re done with.
