    Italian multi-medal winning swimming legend FEDERICA PELLEGRINI...Who no one picked so the scores stay the same. Anticlimax. :P

    But it's not over!

    Without further ado, it is time to reveal the well-known sports star who will earn you a deduction of points if you have chosen said sports star.

    I can tell you that this person could come under the letter O. So to refresh, the chosen sportsmen and women for O were:

    Brian O DRISCOLL
    9
    Green&Red
    Cathmandooo
    bubblypop
    Scorpion Sting
    Trigger
    sydthebeat
    Spook ie
    quickbeam
    Electric Nitwit

    Sonia O SULLIVAN
    7
    Homer J. Fong
    mustang shelly
    Necro
    Sheridan81
    Kolido
    Zaph
    $hifty

    Paul O CONNELL
    2
    dobman88
    conor222

    Ronnie O SULLIVAN
    2
    aaronjennings
    sKeith

    ACES
    O Shea-tusk
    M. Owen-irishejit
    J. Owens-Strawberry Milkshake


    If Brian O Driscoll is the mystery choice then Scorpion Sting will have his/her original 9 points deducted and be given minus 9 instead: a swing of 18 points which will see Sheridan81 crowned the winner!

    If Sonia O Sullivan is the mystery choice then Scorpion Sting will be crowned the winner and tusk will avoid the wooden spoon at the expense of $hifty who will have the original 7 points deducted and minus 7 given instead; a swing of 14 points.

    To simplify:

    Brian O Driscoll=Sheridan81 wins/tusk gets wooden spoon.
    Sonia O Sullivan=Scorpion Sting wins/$hifty gets wooden spoon.

    Are you following this? Good.:)

    Drum roll please animal.

    Who could have come under O with his nickname of O.J. or indeed if you're tusk and you don't care about surnames! :)

    No one picked OJ Simpson apart from irishejit under S so he/she gets a two point deduction.

    The final scores.

    Congrats to your winner Scorpion Sting! and tusk for the wooden spoon.

    If you want your prize PM me an Irish address (not you tusk) and I'll send it to you eventually.

    Thanks everyone for playing. I didn't know it was gonna take over 5 hours but it's my first reveal so lesson learned for next time!:D

    Really enjoyed that, thanks for all the hard work Reberetta. Congrats Scorpion Sting, yourself and Sheridan were well clear of the rest of us but I'm delighted with a top 3 finish.

    Mid-table mediocrity....I'll take it!

    Congrats Scorpion Sting for a great victory, Sheridan for running him(?) close, and to tusk for the "whoopsy" tactical masterclass that guaranteed the wooden spoon. :p

    Many thanks Reberetta for the hard work of organising and entertaining reveal, looking forward to the Music Star one; I'd like to think I'll do a little better in that one but it could very easily go horribly wrong!

    Not technically correct, you'd have had about 15 or 16 incorrect answers for not following the rules :pac:
