# Image Challenge Vote
This week's battle commences with the following choices:

* Necronomicon Apocrypha: The Necronomicon is a terrifying book detailing the Old Ones, monsters from beyond the stars, and the methods by which to summon them. Illustrate the monsters that Abdul Alhazred failed to include in the final draft

* Classic b3ta - Cats versus Dogs. Lets have a week of canines, felines and their weapons of destruction. Cats versus Dogs, hand to hand combat or armed to the teeth, you decide.

* What Does Heaven Look Like?

* Coppers: Photoshop the police

And here's the vote:

As far as I understand it,
Illustrate completely imaginary none existant monsters that don't exist, out of an imaganary none existant book that doesn't exist, supposedly written by a fictional charecter that doesn't exist, and to top it all, (we're meant to illustrate the monsters)that never ever appeared in the none existant imaginary book that was never written by the pearson that never existed?
Isn't this just draw a monster?

So, yes you stated why you didn't vote for it. Because it had the highest votes. So yes. Dick move.

edit: I've edited in the important part of that quote. You clearly state you voted for the highest one, because you didn't understand the Necronomicon.

The word overall doesn't need to be used, because it's within the definiton of the word prefer. If there's four options, and you rank them in the order you prefer then the one you rank at #3 IS NOT THE ONE YOU PREFER JUST BECAUSE YOU RANK IT ABOVE #4. Your prefered option was #1.

I did clearly state that "but I just so don't understand the Necronomicon Apocrypha one" I then went on to say "I voted for the one with the highest votes so far" Nowhere did I say I voted for the highest one BECAUSE I didn't understand did I ? show me where?
It appears you're reading whatever you want to and just making stuff up to suit yourself, If you can't put your point accross in a logical manner while sticking to plain facks and without just making things up i'm off....

# Oh, we'll do this shit clause by clause.
You say the reason for you voting at all was that you didn't understand the Necronomicon one.

You then say you voted for the highest voted one, even though they're not the ones you would have prefered.

The words "I just so didn't understand" link the two clauses together in the way that explicitly enforces a causal link. You did one because of the other. Welcome to the english language. I'll thank you for not trying to call me illogical for following the standard interpretation of your own syntax.

I have shown you where you say it's "because", it's the clause "I just so don't understand". You haven't put up any sort of coherent argument against this. Just saying I haven't explained it DOESN'T MAKE IT TRUE. I've explained it. Twice. I've answered the questions you say I'm ignoring. Twice. Shall I say it again? THE QUESTION HAS BEEN ANSWERED.

The "it" in the message you were replying to was "you're a dick", this statement refering to you, that is the invisable man.

This makes the sentence read as "Some has shown that [the invisable man] is a dick..." which, I'm sure, was not your intention.

You meant a more open "Someone has shown that they're a dick...".
Which would have implied that I [Mu], was being a dick.
