Well, I threw in my vote for the first one listed because nothing really jumped out at me either. And the first one looks short and snappy and it's silly in a nice where-did-THAT-come-from way.

The second one just doesn't thrill me. It's missing something, possibly.

I like the concept behind the third one (but then I was involved in it ). Brown's line could probably be changed and improved.

I wrote the fourth one listed, and I still feel the need to change things a bit (see the post where I suggested it for why). Maybe we could make it work by changing Smith's first line to

or something to show he does want to "win" but isn't willing to be tricked into doing something he doesn't want to do.
