Why is this fucking pox just picking one or two of them? Attention?
Threads like these are toxic and only serve to deepen antagonisms between people, so I see them as opportunities to dick around for my own amusement.
I typically like everyone on here--yes, even dour bags like you and Bam who certainly don't like me--so even were I to participate in this properly, I would feel bad ranking people.
On a different note, my 3D print is at 98% completion.

Nobody sees them as anything other than a laugh. It's actually the exact opposite to what you're saying, you're taking it far too seriously and it's only a joke to everyone else.
And in fairness, you've just called me a dour bag and I've somehow managed to survive, so do you think I'll top myself if you bold Samadinis name?
You should set a time limit on this or you'll have votes trickling in until the end of time.
Maybe.
Only had 27 votes so far (including Panda's gamebreaker) so hopefully still plenty to come.
If you can't be bothered bolding on your phone (@Waffdon) just delete the loser?
I'll let it run 'til Friday, I reckon.
Group stages will be posted on Friday afternoon. Voting for the qualifying round closes at 2PM on Friday 8th February.

Tough draw. Can't wait to see a MELTDOWN or two once this gets to the business end.
This is interesting for me to consider as I've always read everyone's submissions as sincere affairs. There's enough history of people having meltdowns to support the idea that I'm not the only one who does so. For example, I don't see how bruhnaldo or I could read Dark Soldier's comments on us and come away thinking, "well he's having a laugh" rather than "well fuck, that's unfortunate to hear." People have a natural need to feel like they belong, and these kinds of threads can pierce that for better or worse. Whenever I've done this kind of thing, I've always worried how people are going to feel.
I wonder how much of my understanding for this comes down to a British-Canadian cultural gap, my tendency to take things at face value, and how that plays into my always having been half in-half out on this board.
The problem with me posting things like this is that they're self-reflexive, which means other people take them self-indulgent monologues. I'd argue that I'm part of a group including the likes of Hammer that just don't "get" forums.
I've always thought it strange how cavalier you are with insulting or dismissing people, but that probably ties into the gap mentioned above.
As for calling you a dour bag, you called me a pox. :Panda:
I know, but I don't care that you called me a dour bag (I am) and I didn't mean all that much by pox (it's a Dublin figure of speech).
British culture 101 is basically that *nothing* should be taken at face value. That includes your (Panda's) posts though.
I remember we did one of these back in the hayday when everyone was at uni and drunk most of the time. I was like 3rd or 4th or something and everyone started arguing that "he's good but not really that good is he?". IIRC, it was a bit like I was being managed by Mourinho that whole tournament. Peak achievement, CV stuff.

British (and Irish too) culture depends heavily on being snarky and sarcastic. To the extent that If you're positive and praising of people then people will assume you're either being insincere or trying to sell them something.
Being British (Irish), at it's core is being able to laugh at yourself. If you take things to heart you're in for a bumpy ride.
I suspect that's probably why Bruhnaldo has flounced off on occasion. To an American it feels like bullying but In reality, being cunted off is being included.
Also, what has happened to Bam these days? He seems to have a problem with everything, like Giggles but without the humour. Whatever happened to the fun-loving 30-year-old sending voice clips to teenagers on MSN?
Brexit has them all feeling brave.
TIL that I'm in idiot.
Well, we know that @Bam owns a successful business in Exeter and does not own a home in Jaywick.
So he's got that going for him whatever the business may be. He should post in the Jobs thread as the blue collar SvN.
The commute would be a little punishing.
Actually, maybe you could make a killing as a Jaywick slumlord. Rent's rent.
There's not a single person in Jaywick paying rent.
Yes.
A moonshine shed would probably be the most viable business though.
