    You have become one of the masters of these tournaments - guaranteed fun and suspense :)

    I’d like to second this. King Kol.

    I’m thinking of my next tournament and am curious as to what you all would like to try next. In my head for the next ones are;

    Best National Anthem in the World.

    Greatest goal celebration ever.

    Next installation of the Ultimate Flags, with thoughts of Japanese Prefectures, Mexican States and other sub continental sub regions.

    Another idea was most beautiful or iconic place or landmark in Ireland. Each county goes into a tournament but we have qualifiers first to see what represents each county.

    Open to other ideas.

    Ah you're the original tournament master Mack :)

    All the above sound great, especially the goal celebrations

    I have my next one ready, it is music related again, no surprises there. Will post a nominations thread in a few days

    Might be good, but I can almost see the result: UK out first round; Ireland hangs on till the QF or maybe SF; for a final between Russia and France. I'm probably wrong.

    Greatest goal celebration ever.
    Sorry not for me.

    Sounds a goodun.

    I like this. It would be an interesting tour around the country. See what we're all missing.

    Flags are always a big hit. They require absolutely no knowledge of the subject and people simply vote based on what's in front of them.

    The Irish landmarks is another great shout, would be a great little indoor adventure around the island.

    How about favourite building/sky scrapper or best Airline livery.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Right I’ll do the Tour Around Ireland one so, as we’ve just had football and Kolido is doing music. Could be fun.

    I did too.

    Well thought I might have had to rerun the whole tournament.

    Yours was under a wildcard nomination, but Rebe already nominated it, I didn't need to use it. Therefore it remained unseeded.
