    On a lighter note, I am slightly dissapointed that nobody has yet entered my competition. Incase you were too idle to read my mammoth of a thread on page 2, I posed the following question. Which Shakespeare play am I referencing when I say that "your mind can be distracted from such vices through study and fast"? This is NOT an actual quote from the Bard's play, I have merely paraphrased. Marat

    I'm not around for a couple days and crazy things happen.

    There have several requests to close this thread, but I'm not sure I should. This is clearly spam, but at least it's intertaining spam.

    Marat, I know you not wishing to offence anyone, nor have I in anyway taken offence in what you said.
    I always thought tastes were subjective, but if you say your taste in music is superior, please explain why and give arguments.


    MAA : this thread is totally SPAM, but you can't help being intrigued by this Marat-creature, can you?

    He is a creature Mediolanio, a powerful and suspicious beast - but these qualities are tarnished when a burden is upon him, and he hauls the lumber of another's bidding.
    Capo de Tutti Capi is the culprit of all this!
    It has no gender, no voice, no face, but it lives in all those who will listen, and you must listen... because by God it sounds fun.

    As for the ox who abstractly announces this great being, Marat, I am pleased that you have shown, by degrees, respect at last for my opposition to your very existence.
    Be wary you do not support yourself with Elizabethan airs and graces lest, should you indeed gather a following, it will be in awe of a man centuries dead - and not his glory-starved admirer.

    As for who you are, you are Marat, and in the eyes of all here, you have neither written world-famous plays nor performed them - and you do not truly pine or long to be writer or actor, but rather the leader of a religious sect with no objective or organisation.

    Sons and Others of the Almighty Moustache!
    Gather your family, and rescue the children of your neighbourhood - take them to liquor stores or to Memorial Royal Hotels and baptise them in the Jagermeister!
    When this man speaks, he vomits diseased verses which allow your faith to fall ill, it is true, there is not one great religion but many - and any heretical mischief will be more deserving of you than the requests and desires of Marat!

    O Marat, French Revolution trivia has never been my best subject... You were stabbed, yes! But whether by Charlotte Corday or Nicholas Sarkozy, it mattered not to me...till now!

    O Marat, how is your skin disease now? Has it been healed by your timely demise?

    Much appreciated.

    Had you not have been loyal up to this point, I would have disregarded your question due to your blaspheming. Your leader is NOT a creature. However, your loyalty has not been in question before this point, so I will make you a list of your leaders favourite bands. Radiohead, New Order, The Smiths, Joy Division and The National to name but a few. I believe I need not elaborate upon this, their music speaks for itself.

    I have a question for you marat. Why do you call it the bard's play.
    The Bard is Shakespeare's nickname! Think you that I, Marat, would go round pompously misnaming my heroes?

    O Marat, French Revolution trivia has never been my best subject... You were stabbed, yes! But whether by Charlotte Corday or Nicholas Sarkozy, it mattered not to me...till now!

    O Marat, how is your skin disease now? Has it been healed by your timely demise?
    Considering the fact Marat has now sadly perished, I doubt that his skin disease has improved since then. I also doubt that a skin disorder is his primary worry, having being butchered in a bathtub. Remember, I claim not to be Jean Paul Marat, I am just somebody who admires his superiors and subsequently steals their names.

    Other news now. Your beloved leader has been REFUSED ACCESS to the highly anticipated Capo de Tutti Capi II. I must make it clear that I believe that this is a fair and just decision, but it is nonetheless annoying. After a polite exchange with the forum moderator Andres, I kindly pointed out to him the hypocrisy of stating that there will be other chances and not to worry about missing it, whilst having "Join Capo de Tutti Capi II" written in big letters on the bottom of the page.

    I am also gathering nominees for an awards ceremony which will be held on monday daytime (GMT). There will be awards for funniest post, most loyal supporter, biggest surprise etc etc. I am hoping to have around 6 awards. The full list of awards will be issued tomorrow, and if I can be bothered, I will include the nominees.

    Finally, can somebody please enter my competition. It is tremendously disheartening to work as hard as I do, creating fun games for my followers, only to have people blow it back in my metaphorical face. That is all for now. May Magnus dress you in his love, Marat

    The bard's play is another name for a play, also known as the scottish play, but we are not in theatre. So why not just say the name? Unless You were using the term as in shakespeares plays, like in all his plays, in which I have never heard it used in this fashion. If so, my mistake.

    p.s. This entire thread is pointless, but I'll willingly waste my time here. Out of boredom of course.

    No, The Bard is a nickname for Shakespeare. I wanted to call him The Bard instead of Shakespeare, so I did. The rest of your post was not comprehendible. Marat

    The play macbeth is often referred to as the bards play or the scottish play for superstitous reasons. I thought someone with your knowledge of shakespeare would understand what I had meant in my previous post without further explanation. I guess I was mistaken once again. My apologies.

    I am fully aware of what you were implying in your last post, and I am fully aware of the fact that Macbeth is often labeled the Scottish play. What I did object to was your contradictory tone, implying that I was wrong to call Shakespeare "The Bard". Marat

    First of all I was explaining myself cause you said you did not comprehend what I had said. Second, there was no tone, I was just asking for clarification. Third, I have no problem with you marat, nor do I feel like getting in an argument with you or having any tension between us. It was just a question, a misunderstanding, and an explantion.

    Marat is losing his appeal, the post count has slowed down considerably and nobody bothers to place a dramatic, "O", before his title anymore.

    O, great Marat I have a query for you who would you say is better in your opinion: Julius Caesar or Augustus? I humblely await the enlightenment you will provide.
    All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?

    That is a terrible question!
    You cannot fairly answer a query on the lives of two such different and extraordinary people in regard to who is, 'better'!
    'Better', at what?
    Both proved themselves well in respect to the ambition which guided them in their lifetimes.. I admire the memory of both Caius Caesar and Caesar Augustus, and before insult is brought to either I want to see your question rephrased, please!

    Very well. I accept your humble aplology, and in return I apologise to you.

    Why are you still here? To be frank Glenn, your novelty has more than worn off. At first, you were a joy to have around, an intellectual challenge. Now, you are becoming tiresome. If you are so offended by KnowMarat, then stop visiting it. It really is that simple.

    O, great Marat I have a query for you who would you say is better in your opinion: Julius Caesar or Augustus? I humblely await the enlightenment you will provide.
    Dear child, I would have to say Julius Caesar, if only for the sense of drama surrounding his death. Of course this is a blasé answer as, although I hate to admit it, I agree with Glenn's below post. Glenn, this does not mean that I no longer perceive you as a time waster.

    Award categories will be released later on today. Marat

    An admirable attempt at impersonating your leader! However, please refrain from doing this in the future, or you will feel my wrath. Andres, the above post will suffice as an explanation for my actions. May Magnus forgive you mrdun, Marat

    are you asking him to forgive himself, or denying that he is in fact Magnus?
