Initialy it is opened to french spoken people (france, belgium, emmentalland, canada...) but I don't see any issue to have non-french spoken people to participate (except that the rules are in french :D)

LOL !!!

Looks like my Chicago's collegue a few offices from my chair :D

And he never understands why people look at him with circumspect eyes...

Let's do reverse engineering :D Gorim is american so how his brains can work... let's try direct transaltion :

"Why ? I had read at the original article at the froggies :)"

uhhhh :D

Not really better ;D Culture gap :D

Stop kidding, better than thinking we're wearing a beret and a baguette under our harm while somebody behing is playing accordion :D

Gorim, you rocks :D

Shazz, I know quite well that poorly written or spoken french hurts the eyes and/or ears of froggies ;) But hey, its been 17 years since I last took a french course and couldn't remember if "lire" required the indirect object "a" or not ;)

Je suis tres heureux que je rocks! ;)

eh eh I was just kidding (as emoon likes to get fun of my typing disease and blackdroid of my poor english :D)

Yep for 17 years of non-activity that's not that bad :D Enough to be understood at least :D But it is funny to see that all american I know build their sentences in the same way...and have so much difficulties to pronounce the "r" :D

By the way, your last post sentences are always perfect :D That's the Gorim's touch :D

I plan to promote you to the rank of Honorific Froggy :-)

Gorim il cause la France comme c'est pas permis ! C'est un vrai tueur, il est bon pour la dictée de Pivot ! :D

Lebanon was once a French protectorate, so I should be able to compete, no ?

Boomint : with such an avatar you should have some fench blood...remember William, a years years ago :D

Blackdroid : you're lebanon ????? I was sure (dunno why) you was swedish.... So you should have a perfect french ( don't know one lebanon who doesn't speak french as I....)

But whatever... yes you can compete (as "true" frenchies are really too lazy :D or we're an endangered specy...), but please if you win the dancing carpet send me a photo :D

What a tongue !

(And what about a glass of milk ??? :D)

Note : 1/2 of libanon will be enough :D
Currently we've got brazilian, turkish, norvegian, british (and only one french :( ) registered coders...

And Gawd is there to win...can you handle it ? ;-)
