You'll never know if you won.  Someone can always post again.

If the thread is closed, it could be reopened.

Even if the whole site shuts down, the thread could be reopened one day. 

It's always going to be more like a temporary win, for whatever length of time that lasts.

And raise you two beefalo.

Darnit...  Beefalo, plural?  Or is it beefalos?  Or beefaloes? 
Well all right...  The grammar Nazis were lazy.  All three are correct.

Beefalos are a cross between cattle and buffalos.  An attempt to get healthier beef and more of it.
