Okay, after looking over what I wrote and taking into account the points that you made I have come to a conclusion. You are correct, my second "sentence" is not a complete sentence. It should have been a dependent clause included in the first sentence. But then I agrue this (because the whole debate revolves around whether or not a guy can write three sentences about naked women without certain words): the first sentence and the third sentence count: 2 sentences = 2 points. The second sentence contains a punctuation error in that I should have connected it to the first, effectively piggybacking the noun and verb from sentence 1 =half a point. I argue that because of the complexity of the sentence (dependant clause) that I should recieve credit for it, perhaps a "bonus" of half a point. Ergo: 1 point for sentence 1,1 point for sentence 3, one half point for the second sentence (like you said), and one half point for the complex sentence involving the dependent clause = 3 points which stands for three sentences.
What do you think?
