No way how incredible

Kate!
16-08-2025, 10:31 PM
I'm probably being completely over sensitive but drawing the actual sweep is my least favourite part, as when people say beforehand who they want, or who they wanted afterwards, it makes it look rigged. I wish people wouldn't express any preferences as if they then get who they wanted it looks fixed and it's totally by chance I have to stress. I write all the names on bits of paper fold them up and mix them up in a box, then draw out.

Also it looks especially bad when my forum bestie gets George and says that's exactly who they wanted. I promise fervently I had absolutely no idea that was the case, I would have expected she'd have gone for Alex Kingston and or Tom Skinner, so I think I'm gonna have to rethink how I allocate next time I do a sweep for anything as there will probably be uproar in the morning over Crimson getting Tom. It was random.

Vanessa
16-08-2025, 10:39 PM
I've wanted George as soon as he was announced, because I think he could be as fun as Joe Sugg was.
And Joe Sugg was my favourite on his year.
I never expected to get him on my sweep.
Sorry, I shouldn't have said anything.
Next time I won't.

It's ok, I'm not having a pop, just saying it makes me look bad. I don't think I'll do anything on the forum which involves choosing people etc anymore.

Also I've got people kicking off about the Cheese Factor Thread cos they didn't get included.

I'll say here what I just told them, that I chose 12 members ar random from my entire friends list plus a few others. I was not playing favourites. I don't need this.

I wouldn’t stress. If people want to take a sweepstake draw so seriously and kick up about it that’s on them. It’s not that deep. :laugh:

No its not deep, but its down to integrity, and a fair draw


Not too much to ask is it? I dont even watch Strictly so I dont actually care but I do care about a draw being fair, if you dont then thats fine we are not all the same

Nobody kicked off about the Sweep, it's just me and how I feel. It was the Cheese thread that caused ructions. I could only choose 12 people flipping heck and no I didn't pick all my besties only.

it was a fair draw, I've explained at length. I'm done. I'd redraw it but then someone else would kick off. Fgs.

I don't believe that you would rig the draw personally.

I'm happy with the two that I've got, because they both remind me of my childhood a little bit, especially River Song.

I just put that in there as a disclaimer.

I genuinely don't believe that you rigged the draw, I don't get what would be in it for you to do that over a Forum game.:shrug:

Plus you don't strike me as someone that would rig competitions.

Oh for goodness sake. He wasn't even in it that long. Genuinely im not impressed with the line up at all. To be honest I work Saturdays now so I might not even better. The only ones I was interested in are Dani, Alex and Vicki. Its a very low calibre indeed

Maru

I think that he'll have a decent shot at making the final tbh.

i reckon Dani has a decent shot of pulling off a ''Abbey Clancy'' alike win, especially as a mom for the first time she has what it takes to come across super relatable

maybe lesser appealing to the Gen-Z audiences, but honestly that might compensate nicely if she can get some of the other newly mom votes

He was an ex-Footballer that nowadays does Punditry for the Sport.

He was also a Football Manager for awhile too at lower levels.

Jimmy always seems like a decent guy in my view, and I'm honestly not just saying that because his my sweepstake.

He does normally tend to come across likable, which is rare on Sky Sports nowadays.:joker:
