Wimblemong 2008: Final: ziggy starbucks v miles

[ziggy starbucks]

weeeeuuuurrrrrrrghhhhhhhhh

[Johnny Yesno]

Heh! I like the logo.

[alan nagsworth]

Absolutely stellar effort. Good luck to you both (good luck in winning my vote, I mean)

[wherearethespoons]

Bleak and yet I laughed my tits off. I think it was sucky sucky.

[The Region Legion]

Not very accurate with the naming are you - 1st place is clearly a boy, 2nd place is pedo's delight, 3rd place is another girl, 4th is the limping boy, 5th is curious boy, 6th and 7th are soldiers and no one else is on the track. At this late stage, it's details like that that could cost you the game. Look lively!

funnily enough, I received a pm a couple of days ago with the very same complaint.

1) The race has not yet finished, there are still a few laps to go. So the crying boy is currently in the lead but I thought he couldn't sustain it. Crying girl would overtake him. Notice that there is no finishing line in the shot

2) The american soldiers are not participating, they are just supervising. Handing out bottles of water, confirming the official results, organising transport etc

3) Its only a 4-lane running track so strictly speaking it cannot host official olympic events

4) $10 Sucky Sucky is not real name

5) However it would have been a better shot had I taken your (and the pm person's) approach. Bugger

6) All this allows me to dismiss my impending heavy defeat to miles as being about a minor technicality

The others could be way ahead and therefore out of shot.

[alan nagsworth]

Where's the return shot then?! I'm bored of this pedantry!

[Miles]

*squib*



Many bags full of apologies for the late return.

I will say that I don't have any idea about scoring systems in shooting, before anybody points out how wildly inaccurate it all is.

[wherearethespoons]

Nice. Your scoring system is all wrong though, probably.

[eluc55]

The logo in the bottom left renders all inaccuracies irrelevant. Absolutely brilliant.

[ziggy starbucks]

spack!



upping the bleakness levels somewhat

[Derek Trucks]

Remember that the final is 3 shots per player, so the game is currently only at its halfway point.

[alan nagsworth]

Oh my daze, this is a fantastic match.

[The Boston Crab]

This is fucking stellar.

[boxofslice]

Great stuff and still another three shots to go!

[Viero_Berlotti]

This is great, c'mon miles you've got one big shot left, Clarkson looks as good as anything else this year, please top it.

[Miles]

*slump*

[Little Hoover]

That suicide games logo is fantastic

[rudi]

As is Ziggy's shotgun logo previously. Hell of a final so far, chaps.

[ziggy starbucks]

my final shot is going to take a while, sorry miles, derek and everyone.

real life has got in the way. I should have it up some time this week though, hopefully

[ziggy starbucks]

slump



the idea perhaps was better than my ability and the time available

anyway, thank god its over. free at last, free at last

oh, and just incase, the shot is a take on this notorious brass eye article from the daily mirror (I think) http://chilled.cream.org/graphics/charlotte.jpg

[wheatgod]

Satire to the power of satire.

[jaydee81]

daily mirror (I think)

The Mail surely

[chocky909]

"THIS IS THE NOOSE!" Very good.

[Vitalstatistix]

Holy shit these are all so fucking good.

[Miles]

I've just worked for three hours straight on something which has turned out to be a rather humourless repeat of Ziggy's excellent shot, so I've discarded it. I'm really stumped on this one, and tomorrow I have to sort out my college registration and fees, so I 'm sorry to say it might be Saturday by the time I get a return shot posted.
My apologies to you all.

[alan nagsworth]

Fucking Sat-fucking-tur-fucking-day? Fuck! I'm only at work tomorrow night so I might miss out on the shot and even on the chance to vote as I'm not back in til Tuesday. Hurry it up Miles and I may be swayed to vote in your favour.

winkety wink

[Miles]

*down note*

[Miles]

Apologies for the sub standard finish, I realised that I hadn't had any decent ideas, and probably wouldn't any time soon, so best to get it over and done with.

Voting now open.

Oh is it? In that case, Ziggy Starbucks
