Re^6: creating a variable in an if statement ("don't"s)

The more I look at this the more I can't figure out how you jumped to that conclusion after reading what I wrote.

Not sure what conclusion I'm suppoed to have jumped to. I'm talking about "I think it is unlikely that you started replying before my update was posted".

If I were to rewrite what I said using your words, it would be

I didn't start replying before your update was posted. What an odd thing to claim, since no one would gain from that. The delay was surely due to taking the time to verify that your solution didn't work before posting.

Next time you think that, maybe you should delay replying to give your mind time to reflect and then re-read and see if your interpretation changes or your understanding improves.

I still can't find any other meaning for "I think it is unlikely that you started replying before my update was posted". Maybe you didn't understand me when I said I did start replying before your update was posted and I find it odd that you think I didn't.

I think you are both having an odd argument. I'm not entirely sure whether either of you are currently posting further replies to one another at the time of writing this, but I am sure that you haven't replied to my post. Hang on though, by the time someone else reads this there might be a reply. Dang. OK. I've got it. I'm writing this post. That means you can't reply to it yet. But there may be replies to come. Maybe you're having an ZXY argument? FAKE EDIT - this post has not been edited. AHA! I have it. I am not going to post this, then you can't reply it! PS: I agree with this reply. -=( Graq )=-	[reply]

I think you are both having an odd argument. Actually, I think this is a clear use of steganography. The obvious implication is that ikegami must be part of the Illuminati faction infiltrating PerlMonks. Given how frequently he posts he may be in charge of intelligence and transmitting orders to the rest of the conspiracy members. And the use of silent edits may be an attempt to obfuscate the use of steganography! It's really quite brilliant! :-) (And for the record I am of course being facetious.)	[reply]
