Perhaps I have an incorrect understanding of the term 'not in the same league', but while they certainly technically (logically) say the same thing, it's my understanding that, for example, 'P is not in the same league as B' implies that P is worse than B - or in a lesser league. So to me, you first said that 'Paksenarrion' was in a higher league than AG.

It's like a double negation, which technically (logically) cancels itself, but it does change the actual meaning of a sentence. Well, it does in Danish - it might be why I apparently got this wrong in English?

BTW, Florence, would you be interested in an AG discussion thread?
