I am indeed GOOD-NATURED (nota bene), FORTUNATELY for you.

But I rather think I scored off you, not vice versa.

You may say that the language you were discussing was not English, and that therefore you were correct to refer to a non-existent "subjunctive CASE" rather than to the "subjunctive MOOD". But I remain convinced you were only trying to wriggle out of it, particularly since there is no subjunctive of ANY kind in the language in question.
