    Hi y'all. You may have seen my previous tournaments on After Hours such as The Ultimate Crisp Tournament, The Ultimate Chocolate Bar Tournament and The Ultimate Biscuit Tournament. I thought I might give one a run here on this forum and see how we get on.

    Introducing the Ultimate Ice Cream/Ice Pop Tournament!

    Typically, I've always selected the participants myself but I see that you guys here enjoy the process of submitting your own nominations. So with that said, PM me your nominations and I'll draw up the field and then we can have a tasty tournie later! Nominations can include products that are available now or past items from times gone by. If there's enough interest, we'll get it going tonight.

    Submitted my entries:)


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


    A real eclectic bunch of nominations received so far I have to say. Some I wouldn't have thought of, some I'd class more so as desserts and some I just straight up forgot.

    Keep them nominations coming folks.

    I think I'll enjoy the bedlam of not specifying

    Speak for yourself :pac:

    I can reveal that the nominations are in and that we are good to go within a few minutes!


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


    All matches will be uploaded one at a time. All pairings will be decided by a random draw. Quota before each round will be stated. In the event of a deadlock, I will cast a deciding vote.

    The preliminary qualifying round is for entries which received only one vote. This round may feature ice creams/ice pops which are a bit left field! In this round, reasons aren't mandatory but they are most definitely very welcome. Owing to an odd number of entries, there will be a couple of 3 way bouts for the final two spots in the tournament proper. Have we got all that? Cool (see what I did there?), let's get to the first qualifier...

    Love a 3 way.

    All qualifying round match winners will need 4 votes to progress.

    They're known as a Neapolitan around these parts


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    What a terrible terrible choice. As in...both are terrible. One is a mouth slicer, the other a poor mans Snickers Ice Cream.

    Ill go Mars Ice Cream, bob.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Mars Ice Cream because its actually decent and the other is just flavoured ice...

    "I CE" what you did there.

    Damn! I forgot to nominate neopolitan. And not the HB version with banana whatever that’s about. I hope someone nominated the strawberry, vanilla and chocolate one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,307 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    I've actually never tried the Mars ice cream even though I absolutely loved Mars Bars growing up.

    So by default I have to go for Mr. Freeze.


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


    That's 3-3, next one takes it!


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 6,856 Mod ✭✭✭✭Hannibal_Smith


    Mars icecream because the caramel is lush


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


    Mars Ice Cream wins 4-3. Next might be controversial.

    Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough because its one of the classic B&J flavours, and a good shout whoever nominated it.
