    A worthy winner, I presumed it would be him or Walter White, pleasantly surprised to have Vic in the final though. Well done.

    Well you would have to be a brave man or woman to bet against Tony Soprano. Second place was the really interesting battle.
    Thanks for the welcome diversion Necro.

    I tend not to be in this forum much and miss the start of some great threads and fun. Could there be a thread for such comps thar gets updated as one starts? I only caught this as in the front page? (Sorry if this already exists).

    There's one for new Sheep games. Could be for all new games in fairness.

    Edit: Stickied and renamed, follow this thread.. It'd be up up to each competition owner to advertise their games there.

    Could start a new one to advertise any upcoming games maybe? Close off the old one and just have the one thread

    Another great game, thanks Necro. I didn't really get involved in the later stages because I haven't seen most of the shows. Surprised that Walter White didn't make the final though, I thought from the start it would be a straight fight between him and Tony Soprano.

    Character Name
    Andy Renko (Hill Street Blues)

    Also surprised that I was the only person who nominated Andy Renko. For soe reason I was sure there'd be at least one other poster who'd nominate him. :pac:

    Cheers for running the tournament Necro

    I think your post swayed it for Tony's win imho, all true no one could contest any part of it, a worthy winner (even if Mal is the true winner :p)

    Thanks Necro and y'all, very highly enjoyable game

    I should of nominated since I think Ben Linus from Lost should of been in this tournament. He pretty much stole the show each week.

    I didn't nominate anyone but if I did it would have been Columbo, Jack Regan from the Sweeney (bonus points for having an Irish parent) and an honourable mention to Bodie from The Professionals (cos he was hard and pretty and could pull at least a bird an episode :P). No love at all for seventies shows. :mad: :D

    I missed the nomination phase sadly. But if there's another competition for greatest redneck hillbilly cop, I'll be in there.

    I'd like a UK/Irish comedy contest in similar vein to the US Sitcom one. Though there would likely have to be a three character limit to avoid every single character from Father Ted being nominated :D

    Along the same lines... I wonder would a Fr. Ted greatest character contest work....

    Strong competition from Shane Vendrell, Raylan Givens and Roscoe P. Colrtrane.

    Necro thanks for doing all the legwork on this. I missed the tourno (:o) but have just spent an entertaining 2 hours reading through the thread.

    I totally missed this altogether and read the first page, saw Tony Soprano and told myself there's the winner right there - flick to the last page and sure enough!

    A worthy winner, though I would have thought Frank Underwood would have been more of a contender on the basis of his asides to camera alone. Creepy Spacey aside.

    Man Vs ManUre
    Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,357 ✭✭✭Man Vs ManUre


    It was a good competition but if I had known about it I would have nominated Sarah Lund from the killing and Genny and Ciro from Gomorra.
    Also I think the pairing for the semi final was wrong, as final should have been Tony Soprano beating Walter White.

    I'll be running a Best Father Ted Character contest in about two weeks folks. Won't be taking nominations for this one but all the faves will definitely be there along with Second Chance Showdowns!!
