Rather than getting defensive over the comments my analytic voting has elicited, I must say that am quite gratified, as during a previous round of Hogwash I made complaints about others' similarly analytical comments. (I would provide a link but the search function is as useless as a screen door on a submarine.(Well, here's one after all.)) Those complaints of mine fell on deaf ears at the time, but I for one will gratified if this week's round brings about some agreed-upon points of etiquette when it comes to voting in future rounds. On the other hand a certain zany lack of respect for decorum is often a lot of fun.

qui s'excuse s'accuse
again, echoing post #2 above: I don't want to stifle anyone's commentary, that can be part of the fun; but maybe we could save the detailed analysis and critiquing for the results post? [EA]
Alex, the tone of the comments in your linked example was parfait.

sorry, completely lost my scoring touch, and my sense of whimsy, in the midst of my acrimonious response to the "detailed analysis and critiquing". it shan't happen again (till next time). but, remember Rule A!

To make searching unnecesary let me rephrase Rule A (as presented in the thread titled Wordplay and fun: Hogwash Rules): The points don't matter.
And just for fun let me add Rules B and C:
Rule B: The Hogmaster is always right, except as provided in Rule C.
Rule C: See Rule B.
Remember the object of the game is to have fun :-)

So, you were somewhat frampold? yes. also frampled. not to put too fine a point on it.
