Excellent. My plan is coming to fruition.
DD has the same one too. It is really tiresome.

Garde à l'eau!
SILENCE!flemingovia:

Is it really that hard to distinguish? Here's some help if it is difficult: everything I post is cool and handsome, SillyString's posts are intelligent and patient, and Flemingovia's are like the moment when the Nazis open the Ark of the Covenant.punk d:
Pretty simple really.

Don't worry Captain Smith, it's just a scratch.Democratic Donkeys:
Why DD, I think that's the nicest thing you've ever said about me! 
I look forward to rigging this election in the name of the IRCabal. I trust Tomb and Egalotir will take their Probationary IRCabalist status seriously and serve the cause to the best of their ability.

Not sure if trolling or srs. :/
Would I joke about something this important? 
Part of the plan is to keep people thinking there is no plan. We decided that if we keep talking openly about the plan, folks will think we are kidding.PaulWallLibertarian42:
So far it seems to be working.

SillyString would never joke.

Or you could play the game honestly and NOT gerrymander or whatever.flemingovia:
But I guess that wouldnt be any fun.
Who is the IRCabal saddling up to ride? r3n has said this is a one time thing. Mr. Flem you have indicated you might run. Personally not that my preference matters but I'd like to see McM run again. He was my first delegate and has a warm place in my heart. Seriously; I like McM he's a pretty swell fella'

But that type of plan never works. Just like the first rule of warfare: No plan, no matter how well devised ever survives first contact with the enemy.flemingovia:
Now, if want a really good methodology, what you need to do is to read On War Karl von Klausewitz and also read Traité de grande tactique, Précis de l'Art de la Guerre, and ie Politique et Militaire de Napoleon recontèe par lui-meme au Tribunal de Cèsar d'Alexandre et de Frederic, by Antoine-Henri Jomini.
Boiled down and distilled - never let the enemy do anything you don't want him to to, which is quite easy if you always provide your enemy with a path of least resistance that leads him exactly where you want him to, preferably in a way the enemy is too dim to realise.
Which can be surmised by the second rule of combat: if an ambush is going exactly according to plan, it's an ambush.
I thought the first two rules of warfare were:
1. Never march on Moscow.
2. Never get involved in a land war in South East Asia.
