one2dredd does not represent the ideas, views, or opinions of... well, SoE, yes, but not me.

I give you one last chance to go French, as I call it.

I don't think associating Cammandus with french is in your best interest, Monsieur French Fried Potato.

In regards to a white flag, Chickensoup said:
I bought one and shipped it to you, free, so anytime you want you can surrender to my awesome.

We all know that showing a white flag is communication of admitting defeat and uncondition surrendering to a foe. But the question that lies before us is this: If an opponent sends their foe a white, is akin to waving the white flag and admitting defeat and offering unconditional surrender?

Chickensoup may offer any type of rationalization he wishes, like "I sent that so you can use it." But the fact remains, he mailed us his white flag. He showed us his white flag. This is his white flag, not ours. He bought, he admits it. He sent it to us, which again is a fact not in dispute. The only disputable fact is if intention for us to use it nullifies the fact that he showed us his white flag, which is an admitance of defeat and offering of unconditional surrender.

Lets take for example an army, in the midst of battle running a white flag up the flag standard. Do they do this and yell to their opposition, "When you are ready to surrender, come and get this flag and use it to surrender?" That doesn't work, the moment the white flag is shown to the foe, the enemy sees it and acknowledges that the party flying, or showing the flag, has admitted defeat.

The fact is, we are in possession of his white flag. I say, SoE has admitted defeat and offered unconditional surrender. What ever guise they may choose to argue herein after is not of common practice and thusly should be and rightly so discarded.

REDEEMED IS VICTORIOUS AGAIN!
 
Your Vizzini's Logic has numbed my mind and I wave a white cloth diaper in the air. (yes we use cloth diapers in this household!) (on the babies, not on me) (ok sometimes we use disposable diapers when we go on a long outing) (again, not on me, but on the twins) (I have no time to knit and I am not a girl so I can't knit anyways, so the cloth diaper will have to suffice as a white flag.)

The difference between Vizzini and I is that I am often known as Dread Pirate Roberts (I mean, seriously, who would be afraid of the Dread Pirate Avesther?) and I have built up an immunity to Iocane powder.
