I am willing to admit one wild card who hasn’t yet been nominated into the final quarter final. The comprehensive list of already nominated cunts is in the posts above. Post suggestions here please. Ref’s decision final - ie I decide who the most cuntish wild card nomination is.

The draw for the semi finals has been made. Charlize pulled out of assisting at the last minute, the bitch. She was up protesting over some stupid road up in Meath with Stuart Townsend and wouldn’t agree to meet me in the lobby of the Jackson Court Hotel, my planned venue for the draw. I then suggested Peters’ pub Dunshaughlin as a compromise but she was adamant - either I get myself up to the road protest or no deal. I said no deal. So no deal it was. You can’t let these bossy women walk all over you.

Semi Final 1 will be up very shortly. In the meantime, here are the pots for the draw. It’s seeded. Two out of each pot, 4 groups of 8.

POT 1
Brendan O’Connor (Sindo, RTE, TV3)
Liam Cahill (An Fear Rua)
Eoghan Harris (Sindo)

Donal Og Cusack (Cork)

Have you check with Rocko re: The polls.

Running scores are still visible, there’s no option to close the poll and users are able to delete votes.

This could lead to mayhem.

[myboyblue]

Good work Sid. I imagine the real reason Charlize coudlnt make it was because she was busy kicking that cunt Townsend to the kerb.

It reminds me of the big freeze. We will simply have to carry on as best we can in the circumstances.

The delete vote thing won’t be too big a deal. As long as a deadline is in place.

[Rocko]

The delete thing should be gone no?

Also polls should be able to be closed… I thought I changed it so you can close the poll but not the thread. Not sure why it wouldn’t be working or is it just not turned on for non-admins maybe.

And the visible results thing? Was sure I’d fixed that too.

Guests can’t see them, and members can’t see them before they vote. After you vote they’re visible alright.

Hmmm… something didn’t quite work so. Shouldn’t be visible to people until the poll is closed but maybe with the poll closing part not working that might explain something. I’ve obviously left something out somewhere, I’ll take another look at it but don’t want to break the polls completely.

The “close poll” and private vote functions aren’t working.

Meath people are a mix between the worst of Dublin knackerism and the worst of muldoon red neckism, a horrible horrible breed of people.

Welcome to the forum.

Say what you feel there Runt, don’t hold back because I’m new.

I think Veronica Guerin ascended into heaven through the sun-roof of her Opel Calibra.

Anyway, I have spotted a glaring omission in this year’s proceedings and post this by way of compensation:
