Cheers, but if Brian wins I'll need more tenalady as I forgot to change him for a twin :lol:

Haven't a clue what you're on about Flyman, but I'll guess it's something to do with that Big Brother prog thingy. Has someone left a present on the toilet floor again? :wink:

Should I bring in already evicted people so I do not lose points for them being evicted?

I hope Brian wins. I dont think he will.
You will be proved wrong CY. I understand what your saying but the youth of today (the majority of the voters) are more tuned into race issues than their peers. He Brian is a dopey/likeable sort and will win votes- especially through the charlie saga!
I hope you have the desire CY to except that in this case you were wrong. I had no intention to pick an argument when i originally responded, i just thought you might have been a little dated in your response.

The best man won of which im sure you agree, although i for one didn't fall for the paper bollo*ks about £5m being lumped on the twins, as im sure you didn't :wink:

Delighted to be proved wrong - Brian was 2/1 as betting suspended. :shock:

Technically i have been proven right tho, i cant find the sodding thread now but theres one somewhere with our predictions for 2007 and one of mine was for a coloured person to win a reality tv show in this country.

Any of the final 4 could have won this in another year. I have allways moaned that they dont put normal people in, instead going for explosive personalities. At least now i know why, they all liked each other so much that once Charley was evicted it became incredibly dull.

the last time i looked at the betting was around 630pm on paddy power.

twins 1/8
brian 7/2

i actually sat in shock for the rest of the show when she announced brian.
incredible how wrong the bookies got it or was channel 4 trying to make up for the shilpa shetty incident.ok i know brian was odds on anyhow before the twins became one.
im afraid i will never ever be convinced by phone voting.i never have done on any show ever.
saying that ive nothing against brian winning it just seems so strange how the odds were so wrong and he got a massive 60% of the final vote.

Has anyone checked the league table? It's changed quite a bit since last night! Everyone except Sam has been "evicted" thus losing points and apparently Liam & ziggy have been evicted twice!!! :shock: Even the winner Brian has apparently been evicted!!! :shock:

Does anyone else understand the latest points update?

I looked but had no clue, Slarty`s dropped to 6th place, to be honest I`m glad its over. SM comps wont be entertained from now on, more trouble than there worth IMO .

Did you? And did it work?
Can't believe I/we got stung for eviction points on the last night! And twice for Liam! :evil:
And no 'win points' for Brian, either. :roll:

Currently on 2565 points, ranked 98th. As I joined in one week late (was on holiday), when you guys were all on 40 points ..... and the winner is on 2600 ..... I coulda been a contender! :(

Quite impressively, Ziggy was evicted twice this week.........so -20 for Slarty.

So were we supposed to sub in people who didn't win (as they were evicted!!!!!)


Silent Manager are so so so Shite at this !!!!

I threatened to wage a personal anti SM war via e-mail against these clowns and they weaseled out of it with a meaningless apology . I am seriously considering reviving my campaign, if this turns out to be the climax of the monumental farce it appears to be.

Taking it too seriously I hear the cry`s. Unfortunately the price one pays for being a habitual perfectionist, and into the bargain, one who despises cheating and incompetence, and SM make a perfect cocktail of both :x :x

:lol: My drunken transfers cost me the chair and TV?

Ah well, top of the FISO league will do for me :D

Just as a matter of interest, how did Ziggy manage to get evicted twice? Yeah I was serious about not having watched it for weeks

Ah not to worry, I`m assuming you already own a chair and a TV, so well done that man. Victory in the Fiso league would be the common objective, to be honest drunk or not Slarty, It would be luck rather than judgment that won the day here, the winner will probably destroy the prize trying to get it into a 2nd floor flat in Worthington. A Fiso win is a Fiso win 8-) 8-)

Worst fantasy game I've ever played (but worst tv programme ever, so a good match). Incomprehensible rules, arbitrarily applied, dreadful customer service.

Despite 9 emails (the last 3 all unanswered) I never got the 25 points they owed me for an early eviction, despite them saying they would add them (not that I now care or that it made any difference).

Sorry you missed out Slarty - but they'd probably have sent the chair to the wrong address anyway.

Hey I didn't walk away with nothing after all. I've just checked my email and found one from Jennifer entitled, "CONGRATULATIONS!!! You are a winner in the Fantasy Big Brother game!!"

I've won tickets to the final eviction night - yippeee!!!




:lol:

PS Don't get jealous Flyman I know you almost won them at one point, but the email is timed at 18:18 on Thursday. I think you might just have had more problems than me making it there on time.

PPS Nice one about the address Doogal :lol:

Absolutely superb icing on the cake :lol: :lol: Keep the tickets - they could be valuable in 50 years time (a ticket to the last night ever of BB).

If thats the final score then Slarty finishes in second by 2 points to Roblins Topofthehouse, a recognised cheat, so really a SM comp ends in fairly predictable style, a moral victory is yours Slarty, theres a part of me thinks if your team had been called Slartys lovely twins, you may have won this :wink:

Roblin won the league of leagues with his self managed five teams, same old SM cheating scenario, topofthehouse was probably his own team, he worked it perfectly, and you have to say, that appears to be the way SM games need to be played :roll:
