plainglazed Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Once I was in conflict with Your winning more than twice. But now I am beginning To ignore all your advice. Starting out with nothing, It's easy to lose one's face. Now and then, from beginning to end You end up fallen from grace. For who is the center of attention, It never much mattered to me. So one for one, none for all Has become your chosen finale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Dating? Once I was in conflict with Your winning more than twice. - Either two guys fighting over the same girl, or one person being upset that there's this guy who's dating two unknowing girls But now I am beginning To ignore all your advice. - Guy learning on his own in dating game, ignoring advice of his buddy Starting out with nothing, It's easy to lose one's face. - Inexperience > humiliation Now and then, from beginning to end You end up fallen from grace. - Break up/humiliation For who is the center of attention, It never much mattered to me. - Really popular guy or girl everyone wants to date, or screw So one for one, none for all Has become your chosen finale. - Principle of monogamy overriding that of polygamy Now that I wrote the explanation, I think the answer is more likely "monogamy" or "single." Single definitely fits the first and last verses, and the middle lines could describe the life of a single guy getting continually rejected.

Most excellent guess(es) DN. Obviously put some thought into this one. You must have a lot of spare time on your hands . Not it but please keep at it. Today I got some time, yes, but this one didn't take that much thought. Unless I'm thinking hard, I normally roll just by searching for ideas, then trying to force them to fit. lol Could it be one of the forumers in the brainden? First thing I thought of when I saw the first verse was DudleyDude, actually. ^^ But the later verses probably don't fit Becoming disillusioned with your mentor? Or a parent? Once I was in conflict with Your winning more than twice. - trying to beat your, say, chess tutor But now I am beginning To ignore all your advice. - surpassing the teacher Starting out with nothing It's easy to lose one's face. - starting out as a student, it's easy to falter, fearful Now and then, from beginning to end You end up fallen from grace. - teacher eventually falls from the pedestal you put him on For who is the center of attention, It never much mattered to me. - not sure on the last two verses So one for one, none for all Has become your chosen finale Cain (biblical)/ Cane? Gambling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted August 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Good day Wilson, not it. Also want to mention how great I thought your last answer to my last one was. If correct it would have certainly confirmed DD's "bast***" boast but undersold his "tricky" accusation. Brilliant. But got all excited with DD's answer that I was looking for and failed to mention yours. Sorry again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted August 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 a bad sport...or a sore loser??Maybe... Good morning Jkb, excellent thought(s), sure makes sense in so many ways. Not what I'm after tho. I have a few more lines but gonna wait to see if a few more dont chime in first. That's certainly not to say that it is not very solvable as is (though I cant remember my rationale for the title so would suggest you discount that). Please keep at it.
