I feel we may have to take out a cease & desist order over Last Hussar's use of the word 'Oiks'.

Objection. The defence seeks to establish the weird is a relative term, and Just a few Oiks is unreliable due to his inability to concentrate on the game he is supposed to be playing.

Objection refused!

Having decalred his son and daughter-in-law to be normal.  He is now saying that his relatives are wierd.

I would also point out that he is on this forum at 03:32:57 AM.  UK time when normal  people would be tucked up in bed, particuarly if they had a good woman/man to be tucked up with.  Unless of course they were on a night shift

As LH both works normal days and  has a lady I belive to be "a good woman" his frequenting of this forum  at this forsaken time in the morning again points to the fact he is weird.

While I am not the one accused here I would like to point out

1 I am only late to club as I come directly from a shift at work that does not end until Club has started.

2 I only wander off after throwing the dice, as there is a delay of 10 mins while LH looks for the right flippin casualty marker.

I wouldn't classify matching markers to units necessarily as "weird". It sounds to me like a jolly good wheeze for obtaining more thinking time as to how to get out of the dangerous mess you've got yourself into. It's the wargaming equivalent of turning the chessboard over. However, I would not recommend turning the wargames table over even as a suicide device.  :o

To clarify - when throwing TOO MANY dice.

And you do it while playing Sunjester.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.
