For starters, an ellipsis requires a space between each dot . . .

Really?!  I didn’t r realise that.

That is much more informative and interesting than the OP!

    i thought it just required three consecutive dots?

    obviously op got it all wrong with four, either way...

    from first gogol search result (and thus, the only one that anyone will pay attention to):

    An ellipsis ( ... ) consists of three evenly spaced periods and is used to indicate the omission of words or suggest an incomplete thought. In general, an ellipsis should be treated as a three-letter word, with a space, three periods and a space.

    I was taught to put a space following the ellipsis, before the next word, but no space between the ellipsis and the preceding word 🤷‍♀️

    Also, no space between the periods. Soz, @Skuit 😬

    Except not soz because you of all peeps know how pedantic I am, oh and that I’m never wrong 😝

    I suspect DeeBlood is actually dermie.

    Took umbrage at me calling him a clown and joking about his inability to string words together (a joke i rather embarrassingly mangled).

    binman, given your hippiness, try replacing the the 'um' with an 'ooommmm'

    would be much more smoothing and meditative to the listener

    Incorrect. While a space between each dot is acceptable, it is not required.

    I haven’t noticed the umms but I am glad that @binman has a new mic and doesn’t sound like he’s calling in from inside the stats file filing cabinet anymore 

    He actually doesn't have a new mic. He is using his old mic which has a broken stand so he has to use it the old fashioned way by holding it up to his mouth like he's commentating the cricket.

    To anyone listening live whenever Binman's voice goes in and out that is him moving the mic away from his mouth. If you listen to the podcast on one of the apps after the fact you won't hear that as the levels are fixed in post.

    The mic he used for a couple of weeks which sounded like he was broadcasting from a filing cabinet was an even older mic but I have a sneaking suspicion that that mic wasn't being used to capture the audio and the audio was being captured by his computer's built in mic.

    Having said all that even the most expensive mic will not fix all those worrisome ums.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
