    Well we can make an exception seeing as this year has gone so fast :pac:

    I ran a good few tournaments here and had a blast with most of them. Loved doing the All-Ireland Landmark one especially as there were so many gems in it I was unaware of yet can feasibly see. I loved the World Landmark one too as it had some famous powerhouses taking on unknown contenders. The qualifying processes for these tournaments were my favourite part though defo, some stacked bouts.

    I really liked running the flag ones too, weird how colours on cloth can divide opinion so much. The football one I enjoyed for different reasons. The crests for the randomness, the goals for nostalgia.

    Outside of my own, the Christmas Song thread was excellently timed and ran. Loved how it allowed for different versions of songs to be played off first.

    What about Just One and Decrypto? I think those were new games introduced this year.

    I will give this some thought.

    Need MOAR - Have Your Say!


    Closing the voting on January 4th so last few days now!


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,007 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    They've all been great, but I think there was one that stood out. I just need to go and double check it's who I think it was

    What's your opinion on sharing reasons for votes on thread? Good to remind people of certain things? Or better if it's a secret ballot?

    Went and checked - Deja's Halloween Paint will take my vote - great organisation and the the commentary and puns on the reveal really added to it :)

    Now to look back over walriii


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,007 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit

    Think my vote has to go to Necro's ten category mammoth!

    I didn't actually get round to entering but it had a good selection of categories, a very quick turnaround and well run reveal

    Now to go head to the meadow to look at all the sheep!

    (I will actually PM you all my votes, but I thought I'd try to nudge the thread along and throw out some reminders!)

    I got sidetracked by tournaments. I don't get to follow many that closely but I'll highlight three. This does make me look like an Omackeral fan boy though :p

    All Ireland Landmark, genuinely turned into one of my favourite ever boards threads
    Football Club Crests, for the goat and the elephant
    World Cup Goals, for reliving some cracking moments, discovering some gems, but mostly for laughing at people losing their mind at others disagreeing with them about Maradona :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,007 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    For sheep/peehs I think these were my favourites (in no particular order)

    Lassykk's General Sport Sheep
    Aaron's Premier League Player Peehs
    Necro's Nicholas Cage Sheep, obviously
    Necro's Triple Trouble

    And I'm shamelessly going to plug my own, I really enjoyed running these...
    Shepherdy (Jeopardy SHEEP) for the concept
    Team Sheep for the fights it caused!
    Advent Calendar as I don't want 1/12th of my year to have been a waste of time :D

    In fact, this has made me want to run some more in the new year :)
